What the Internet has done for me.

The Internet has been invaluable in that it has demonstrated how the vast
majority of the world consists of fools, idiots and ignorant people who
don't know how to think, what to think or why to think.

One can no longer ignore the huge majority of inferior intellects that
pretend to be anything but. It's especially alarming that the people
one reads on the newsgroups at least can operate a computer. What does
their appalling stupidity say about those too dull to use a computer?

It gives the term 'dumb and dumberer' even greater meaning.

But thats a plus Capt. Just look at my bitch punk rusty redcloud. He
did not have a life until I came along and gave him a reason to exist.
He was a lost soul until I allowed him to call himself redcloud and
that gave him a smidgion of hope. Now I get my boots licked clean daily
by him. He such a brown nose punk and loves to worship the water I sail
on. Without the internet and me he would be nothing.

90% of internet users are unaware that usenet even exists. those that do
find their way here are usually slighty more aware than most.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, yet the guy at the
gallery wouldn't trade me that painting for my newspaper.
================================================== ====================
"My suggestion is to completely ignore idiots like Leland. They are the
lowest form of pond scum. People like him have tried unsuccessfully in
the past to disrupt the newsgroup. The best medicine is to completely
ignore them. As I'm sure you'll see, they're most intelligent response
is to yell nasty names. Other than that, they have nothing."

"Warning to all:
Steve Leyland is a trolling **** of the highest order. Killfile the
muppet now and move on. Even the briefest of searches on his past
UseNet posts will reveal the truth. You have been warned. *plonk*"

"I didn't delete any part of your meaningless, pointless, worthless
post in order to clearly demonstrate that you are the nemesis of
Usenet: the crossposting, non-editing, diagram-creating worthless,
dickless, brainless, gutless, mindless, ball-less, spineless, flaccid,
obese, fish-belly pale, ugly, VD-ridden, moronic, bald, hunch-backed,
flat-footed, odoriferous, obnoxious, fecal-smelling, buck-toothed,
physically handicapped, fungus-infected, HIV positive, mud-packing,
masturbating, whining, simpering, self-important, arrogant, egomaniacal
POS that takes up more bandwidth than a despicable binary-poster, and
for no apparent reason beyond seeing his own defecatory vomitus
slithering down the screen in vile green rivulets."

Admiral Halsey, alt.sailing.asa
================================================== ====================
"I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires."

William Blake.
================================================== ====================
"When the Earth has been ravaged and the animals are dying, a tribe of
people from all races, creeds and colours shall put their faith in
deeds, not words, and make the land green again. They shall be known as
Warriors of the Rainbow, protectors of the environment."

What gets me is the amount of truly narrow minded people that frequent
usenet. Their are people here who simply can not see anything other
than their white bread, missionary style only, mundane life. Anything
that is even a tick out of their norm is perceived as evil, bad, or
stupid. Oh, and to think that you've got a good sample of people to be
able to make the above comments IS narrow minded. I'd say to you that
MAYBE 5% or so of the computer literate people in the world frequent
usenet.

Have you ever noted that people see in others what they hate in
themselves.

Thanks for getting me to finally make the effort to figure out how to
kill file someone. I guess since I put up with your inanities and
insults for so long and did not know immediately how to dispense with
them, I have proved your point.

Yes, very true.

It's like trying to killfile yourself, no doubt!

don't be so hard on yourself, although this kind of self discovery can
be painful, it's only after you've come to grips with your mental
limits, that you can learn to overcome them.
