Metaphorical Ruminations on Standard Blogospheric Communication, Part One

Posted by Bill

Blogger/Commenter #1: "I like the color blue."

Blogger/Commenter #2: "The culor blue? Are you a DUMBASS?! The colorr blue has an inherinently loower albedo than lighter colors - like a nice light chartrooose - and thus absorbs more heat, you retard. Blue is tottally stifling. Anyone that likes the color blue is clearly an idiot."

Blogger/Commenter #1: "Well, that may be your opinion, but you don't have to be such a raving ass about it. Besides, who was talking about properties of heat absorption? I like it because it brings out my eyes. Nice spelling, by the way."

Blogger/Commenter #2: "'ASS?!' WHY ARE YOU ATTACKING ME?! RESORTING TO AD HOMINEM IS THE SIGN OF A WEAK ARGUMENT!

HOW DARE YOU ATTACK ME?!!!"

What is wrong with you people? F'r chrissakes, eye color preference is not falsifiable, nor objective, it's merely a normative judgement. Anyway, eyes could EASILY have evolved from light-sensitive patches; it's just a matter of successive, tiny, heritable favorable adaptions.

Frigging Creationist morons. I no patience for this. I am DONE.

Oh, I suppose you're one of those heathens who feels that such a glorious, complex, interdependent organism such as the INDC Journal could have arisen spontaneously as the result of random interactions in an uncaring universe!

This site has obviously been touched by GOD!

Out, heathen!

You're all talking about me aren't you?????

You're all a bunch of retarded nancy boys who are incapable of reasoned discourse with someone like myself that enjoys an INTELLIGENT debate. That's probably why you read a jerkoff like Bill -- so you can feel smarter than someone.

I would venture to say that everyone who reads this stupid blog, and especially the commenters, are all retarded nancy boys.

Um, wait a minute . . .

Blogger/Commentor #3: You soooo nailed it Blogger/Commentor #1! I am with you 100%!! I couldn’t have said it better myself!!!!!

If I may be allow to quote Team America's theme song:

CENSORED FOR APPALLINGLY GRAPHIC VISUALS!!!! FASCISM!

Really the perfect phrase to settle ANY debate.

Actually, I'd use:

"Let's get one thing straight, actor. I don't trust you. And if you betray us, I'll rip your f***ing balls off and stuff them up your a** so that the next time you sh**, you'll shit all over your balls, got it?"

I use it all the time and I WIN!!!

It's true about blog commenting, but it's doubly true for message boards. Jeebis those places are a nightmare.

Commissar:

You have wounded me, sir. But as a Christian, I have been taught to practice patience and forgiveness, and to love even my enemies. "Judge not, lest ye be judged" is the biblical principle to which I adhere. So I shall turn the other cheek to your invective. No matter how much I may wish to respond in kind, I shall not sink to your level. Instead, I shall go to my knees in prayer, and ask our Lord to shower His grace and mercy even upon a godless undeserving dumbass like you.
