Is it a secret? If you know what you meant, why won't you explain it? Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. snip Not to disparage the dead, but consider this, two people together, a 49 year old guy with all his attributes, and a 26 year old gal with all her uh "attributes" What the christ is that supposed to mean? [In case this is unclear, I am asking you to explain what you mean by "attributes"] Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. makes for a pretty stupid stew Please explain. Why does a 49 year old guy and a 26 year old gal make for a stupider stew than, say, a 22 year old guy and a 30 year old gal? [In case this is unclear, I am asking you to explain what the ages have to do with it] Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. Considering that he was married, the disparity of age, probable difference in rank, a long way from home, I expect they may have had other things on their minds. What the christ are you talking about? [In case this is unclear, I am asking you to explain what the guy's marital status and the "disparity of age" between the two paddlers has to do with their deaths. Further, what do you mean by "probable difference in rank."] At least you are beginning to deal with the details of what I said, and your questions become more specific. So I see no hinderance for you because, you're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. I did not find a question in this so I snipped to save bandwidth. snip I don't know what you mean, that's why I am asking. Is it a secret? If you know what you meant, why not simply explain it? Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. You have no clue. What is known is that they were novices, they had a guide, they wore no PFDs, they went to a place where they should not have been. Yeah, I also have learned that there is usually alot more to the story than what we have been told! So I try to read between the lines, which is the point about a discussion group like this! Fine. But what the christ is it you are reading, and what are the lines? Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. None of us were there to be making a truely informed statement, and most don't actually know the people involved. So most all that is said is conjecture, even what you have just stated! Did the article say they were novices? How did you determine they were novices? The article said so. Now you are reading between the lines, no where in the article was it stated that these two were novices. The word was not even used, unless you are reading somewhere else than the posted link. So obviously you are able, so take a SWAG at what I am writing about! snip I went backcountry skiing by myself,... snip What does this have to do with a couple going kayaking with a guide? Nothing OK. This is progress. So far, of all your comments about this tragedy, you've made a number of cryptic comments which you have refused to explain, and have admitted that your supposed relevant "situation" is in fact irrelevant. I don't recall that I admitted such a thing! How you do snip to your cryptic convinence! Smart boy! it has to do with the original question, of why people do stupid things! In this story a couple is kayaking, in mine, I did stupid things. Similarity may stop there, but we can look at ourselves, and usually find where we have also done stupid things. Have you any stupid human stunts to your credit? Yes, of course. For example, I really thought it was possible you might be less of an asshole in talking about this tragedy. Such childish language from someone so smart and well educated. I guess well bred does not necessarily come in the package? snip I don't know what you are talking about, that's why I asked. Is it a secret? If you know what it is you are talking about, why not simply explain it? Because, You're so smart, I want you to take a SWAG. Although I will admit, that at 49, he was not that young, but obviously still able to make some stupid decisions! That's extremely insightful (not). Some more deep insight on your part, not! snip Apparently I am naïve because I don't know what you are talking about. If it is not a secret, why can't you explain it? Well you finally admit that you are so naive that you can't figure it out? Maybe there is something to the perception that Canadians are naive, humm? But still why don't you take a SWAG! snip You missed what I was saying. You said you were working at perfecting being stupid. I am saying that I think you have done a find job. But I am sure you can improve. On this I am sure you are correct, I can always improve! snip And yours are brilliant? Thus far I am simply seeking to have explanations for your comments about this tragedy. And I am seeking your SWAG! You obviously like the word "stupid"! Reminds me of a little kid who discovers a new word, and uses it in every statement they make for a day or two, or until they learn a new word! Are you a little child? What is your new word for today? RkyMtnHootOwl OvO Now that you have decided to not even attempt to explain your statements, I would upgrade you from stupid to pathetic. Is that your new word? It does have 2 more letters, so I am sure that must be exciting for you! RkyMtnHootOwl OvO |
