A few quick points of order if you'll indulge me Bluers, and then I'll let you get back to giggling at things and making copious notes about posts ukyestony/starkiller/A N Other (delete as appropriate) wrote on The Oatcake five years ago. Right back at you regarding the 'last word' thing by the way- I don't need a reply, these are just some items for your consideration π
"I stumbled across it but the link from the Sentinel didn't work". That's so weak!"
Whether you think it's weak is immaterial, it's the truth. The AdBlock browser I use (a must for reading The Sentinel) was playing up- these things happen unfortunately. However, if you don't believe me and really feel the need to check (I know you're usually a stickler for research), if you load up The Sentinel desktop site, a search bar appears at the top of the page. If you enter someone's name- in this case, Simon Cliff- in said bar, all the articles relating to that person will show up. The one in question is second one down if memory serves.
"You do seem to regularly get off on imagining other people getting worked up about stuff, and "absolutely love triggering you to fuck [to deanosisterspants]". It's very odd behaviour for a grown man - troll like"
I'd hardly call people obsessing (and you do seem to be dedicating an inordinate amount of time flapping about this) over a thread that doesn't concern them (allegedly) 'imagining other people getting worked up'. The proof's there in black and white- a lion's share of it written by yourself π It's tantamount to me posting numerous times on the fruit tree thread, bringing the fruit tree thread into the conversation on other unrelated threads, and then trying to convince people that I'm not actually interested in bloody fruit trees π It's all very odd!
Speaking of odd behavior, rhetorical question coming up: how come you've never raised concerns over trolling with the person who is well known to have spammed the board with various accounts, all of whom are abusive to other posters? Classic trolling tactics but no such concern there- in fact, given your faux outrage over the thread, you seem to be defending them. And when they've come up in conversation before, you claimed not to be aware of who was being discussed. If you'll forgive me, you seem to be very selective in your observational skills, given that you could practically repeat verbatim something written by another random poster weeks ago! π€
A cynic might think that you've chosen to ignore this person's activities because you agree with them politically, but are less backwards in coming forwards with me as obviously we disagree on various matters- ad hominem tactics, so to speak. Another rather transparent example of this was the whole palaver over ACAB. You zoomed in on my comment about a graffiti tag, but gave scant regard to a left-leaning poster- RipRoaringPotter- and his rather fanciful claims that the hard left agitators who were lobbing projectiles at the police were right wingers in disguise! This- combined with some quite ridiculous and laughable comments you've made in the past- speak volumes for you, your character and your agenda π
Anyway, that seems to be it. To reiterate, no need to reply back, they're just some items for you to take onboard. I'm off for a brew! π
