Classic Internet Debates

[Vtfreeski]

I am told this is of an old Ttips
debate between Sugarlaofer and
GOC, though I am pretty sure it's
actually James and NBen havin' at it,
gloves off!

[Sugarloafer]

I don't recall ever debating GOC on anything. Lots of trash talking but never any serious debate. Frankly, I'm pretty sure he'd say the same thing.

You think that was an actual post with content or about other people? Wow where have you been? Every post he puts up is an opportunity to bloviate about himself, attempt to be funny and post odd links and pics. Here this might help you understand this a bit more.

No ****...really ?? Please tell me you didn't actually take the time to play that video !!

SL, do you think James was attacking you? Your response seems sort of odd/non-sequiturish.

Aspergers huh? Could be. I'm sorta interested in what it might be. Any mental health professionals want to take a flyer? There's definitely something a little off there. Ron should just come clean with whatever diagnosis he's been living with. I for one would be a lot more sympathetic if he'd just be honest about it.

Yeah...that's the way I read it, but I've been wrong before.

I had a neighbor who had it. Not the most endearing trait. No question to me he has it but I mostly post it for the reaction. Last time I got some mumbling about his ski prowess and a few paragraph rant about how athletic he was and how many points he scored in the lunch time pick up basketball game. It was as you say pure internet gold. Can you imagine someone as self absorbed as Ron in a team sport. I would pay to see that.

Great point! Nothing you have ever participated in should be
evaluated as "debate".. Christ, please do be "serious" , that's got
to be funny beyond measure!

We live with conditions, not diagnoses, Boy Wonder!
And count on it, we all do our best to earn your "sympathy"..
Not that's some funny shi#!!

Hey listen, I am working on some simplified explanations (proofs if you will)
of fairly abstract theorems and axioms of Propostional logic..
You know, like why any proposition implies the empty set, and
how, further, why the empty set implies only logical truths (tautologies)
and how that further means the { } > A , where A is any tautology,
and how that, of course, "means" that any logical truth is semantically
implied by the empty set which leads to the conclusion that { } >A
is THE GRAND Tautology.. Now, which of you three little monkeys would
like to help me out ?

"Pursuit of specific and narrow areas of interest is one of the most striking features of AS.^[1] Individuals with AS may collect volumes of detailed information on a relatively narrow topic such as weather data or star names, without necessarily having a genuine understanding of the broader topic."

Accept that he's not AS, he's just really annoying. Personality can look like many things, but a develomental disorder only looks like a developmental disorder. If he was AS, he wouldn't interact the way he does. But if he was a PITA, he would interact exactly the way he does

I wouldn't get to hung up on disorders, psychologists like to label people, but it really doesn't tell you anything helpful, sorta like not answering a question; if it doesn't help, then it's just noise.

I have him on ignore, that way I get to choose when "I want to listen", versus being beet senseless like a rutabaga; both of which make a lovely addition to any winter salad.

[Sugarloafer]

As they say "pure gold". Glad to see we've got some mental health professionals here !

^^^ Shut up or Ben will "beet" you with some random vegetable,
like maybe a beet!
He does a remarkable job of ignoring, dontcha think ?
