Obviously the inmates have taken over the asylum.

I skipped about 1950 of the posts that got through my filters since the
last time I was marooned here, but of the remainder, it is obvious:

1. that no matter how hard he tries to convince us otherwise, Scott Tosk
Ingersoll is pretty much the lowest of the low here.

2. that though Herring tries to convince us he is not a racist, he
recommends we listen to racist, red-neck ignorant songs. When he's not
doing that, he's recommending gooey pseudo patriotic schmaltz* songs

3. that the ID spoofers are still active and disruptive

4. that another bunch of morons or perhaps the same morons as the ID
spoofers are acting like juvenile delinquents

5. that boating posts here are not even an afterthought

6. that there's an undercurrent of blood lost among those I thought
would know better (the pirate situation)

I'll check in again in a couple of weeks, to see if any responsible
adult posters are present.

Have a good one.

It is nice to see you are offering the same OT BS you have been posting
since your first visit to rec.boats. Hurl lots of insults and
disruptive comments at those you believe are insulting and being disruptive.

LOL, you are too much.

He's just a scared little punk... Hiding under his desk, sniping at
windmills, but unlike Don Quitox, he has not the courage to step up to
them. I am starting to think "inferiority complex" is a requirement for
being a fundi socialist...

I have no idea about Paul's inferiority complex, but he does have
blinders on when it comes to his and his friends behavior. They do the
exact same thing he accuses everyone else of doing.

I really do think someone should do their PhD Thesis on "The Complex
Interpersonal Relationships as Displayed in Usenet Newsgroups and their
Relationship with Mental Illness". It would be one hell of a funny
book.

There's certainly a lot of original source material available right
here. Unfortunately it's not just in rec.boats however. Tale a look
in the comments section after various news articles. There seems to
be something about the internet and its perception of anonymity that
brings out a lot of hidden hostility. The groups that manage to
maintain a modicum of civility are all heavily moderated.

"Unfortunately it's not just in rec.boats however."

Absolutely. I originally said "as Displayed in rec.boats", and then
realized I really need to say "as Displayed in Usenet Newsgroups".

I hadn't thought about the "News" comment section, but that could be a
separate chapter.

Oh by the way, my boat is bigger and better than your boat, and I boat
on better water than you do. So there.

That's really something to give a royal rat's ass over.
