RTH - "HUBBA HUBBA YABBA DABBA DOOO"

[Lip tremble]

Ooooh, that hurts. I have feelings, you know.

[/Lip tremble]

Richard, I would have you know that "HUBBA HUBBA YABBA DABBA DOOO"  is an exact quote from a post you made here last February 31st. Look it up if you don't believe me.  :angry:

He's just upset because I wrote that in an over-the-top pretentious British accent.

If FtK wants to complain she's being mistreated, she's welcome to set a better example. However, something tells me that were I to visit her blog, I would not be allowed to post 447 straight comments with no interference.


Hmmm.  I made about 2 comments (on topic and constructive) before I was told I couldn't post anymore unless I was nice.  Later I was able to post a couple handfuls more.

She then allowed some of my anonymous comments through because she doesn't know how to flag IP addresses.  I then told her who anonymous was while continuing to be completely on topic.  I'd be banned now except she doesn't know how to do it.

FtK makes the claim that a series of posts that she made in the Walt Brown thread are analogous to other series of posts that Lenny Flank has posted elsewhere. Let's look at the content:

Quote

[Post 1] Lenny is a weirdo.

[Post 2] I'm practicing posting Lenny style.

[Post 3] I wonder how many separate posts in a row I could accumulate before Steve would ban me.

[Post 4] Evolution is dead, dead, dead.

Bwha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

[Post 5] Lenny is the antichrist...

[Post 6] I don't like Lenny's avitar.

[Post 7] Lenny the loser makes me barf.

[Post 8] Mimicking Lenny makes me feel like I'm a 3rd grader.  Creepy.



I'm going to invoke the following rule:

Quote

Messages making claims about the actions, beliefs, or intentions of identifiable participants are an implicit call for discussion. The claimant is responsible for such claims. Failure to retract unsupported claims about other participants is grounds for banishment.


FtK can back up the claim that Lenny has made such a series of posts, including the same lack of content and reliance upon simple insult for the same number of posts, or retract the claim. I will determine how well convincing a proposed demonstration is. FtK has one week to accomplish one or the other.

Back in your court, FtK. If there is no response doing one or the other by July 6th, I'll consider that a default.

In case there's any question about it, I don't actually give a flying . . .  uh . . .  fig, what FTK thinks.  About me, or about anything else.  (shrug)

She needs serious therapy.

No, I don't want to be banned, but go ahead if that is what you feel is necessary.

Wow, FTK, your martyrdom wheelbarrow will be full for at least a YEAR now !!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations.  Nicely done.

Enjoy your martyrdom.

Well, but that's okay.

Having seen her picture, you're definitely cuter.

And I haven't even seen your picture (but I do know that small scaly animals love you and pizza boys can stand to make deliveries to your door...).

Whereas, how many snakes or pizza boys are willing to go to FtK's door.

There's a reason why these people have to get 'em when they're young.

I told Elsberry privately that I'm done here, but evidently he's not going to relay that to his "minions".  

I will not be "retracting" anything.  Actually, Lenny should be apologizing to Ian and I for not keeping his word and staying off the thread.

The thing is, that I'm not familiar with anything that Lenny has ever said that is so terribly enlightening.  I'm only familiar with him from this forum and comments I've seen on occassion at PT.  From the time I started posting here, he's offered absolutely nothing but snide remarks...virtually no science involved.  So, if he is some sort of science wiz master, I've never been subject to his words of wisdom.

Ian and I have found a private venue in which to discuss various issues further.  

Don't worry, I won't cry martyrdom in regard to my departure.  I'll let Elsberry off the hook so he won't be accused of using the "banninator button".   It's time to go anyway because I've scanned through some of the threads here where other people from my "side" have tried to reason with you folks, and it's futile.

Nice meeting all of you though.  It's been interesting.

Bye Richard... ;)

Well, perhaps he was just being protective of your privacy; didn't we have a conversation once about posting the contents of private emails without the permission of the sender? And isn't it nice to be able to post here and explain yourself in your own words without having a moderator intervene? :p

BTW, for those who have not already seen, I offer:


http://www.geocities.com/lflank

Around 400 pages worth of science and analysis.

Alas, all now essentially irrelevant, and of interest only for historical reasons, since ID is now dead as a mackerel, and the anti-ID fight is now all but over.  

All that remains is to laugh and make snide remarks at the antics of the ID diehards.

Unless my grasp of the English language is utterly deficient, I am quite certain that Lenny has never intended to enlighten anyone.

What he does mean to do (as I read it)  is to make glaringly obvious in a succinct and un-ignorable way the specific objections to and/or flaws in a given statement.

And really,  given the attention spans and level of reading comprehension demonstrated by most creationists,  the one line per post thing is almost forgiveable.

I've been loosing sleep. "Dead as a mackerel" isn't any more or less dead than, say, "dead as a cocker spaniel."

Well, I use it in memory of our dear departed Fish Guy (who alas would have throughly enjoyed FTK's latest histrionic departure).

Anyway, saying "dead as a mackerel" evokes the mental image of a cold slimy fish lying still in the icebox, with slack jaw and one big round eye staring vacantly up at you.

"Dead as a cocker spaniel" just evokes the image of a big brown splash on the highway.

While indeed both accurately depict the current status of the ID movement, the "dead fish" image is, at least to me, far more humorous.



Geez, first I had to explain "penii", now I gotta explain "dead as a mackerel".  No WONDER satirists stay away from scientist audiences . . . . .

Why attempt the impossible?  If I want to talk science with the pig-ignorant, I can discuss Einstein with my goldfish and get the same level of effectiveness (the difference of course being that at least the goldfish isn't WILLFULLY pig-ignorant).


I'm here to laugh at the nutters and make fun of them.  Nothing more. It's all they are worth nowadays.

If, in the future, the nutters ever become an effective political movement again, I'll happily go back to stomping their movement into the dirt again, as quickly and efficiently as I can.

Lenny, now you are REALLY confusing me with all the complicated animals. Talk to a goldfish for pig-ignorance? Is there a pig I can talk to for fish-ignorance?

I think Lenny is telling us that ID is ALIVE and FTK is ERUDITE. RUN, EVERYBODY! RUN!

If I could talk to the animals, just imagine it,
Chattin' with a chimp in chimpanzee,
Imagine talking to a tiger, chatting with a cheetah,
What a neat achievement it would be!

If we could talk to the animals, learn their languages,
Maybe get an animal degree,
I'd study elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle,
Alligator, guinea pig, and flea!

I would converse in polar bear and python,
And I would curse in fluent kangaroo,
If people ask me "can you speak rhinoceros?"
I'd say "of courserous! Can't you?"

Actually, when it comes to discussion with creationists, perhaps THIS stanza is most appropriate:



If I spoke slang to orangutans
The advantages why any fool on earth could plainly see!
Discussing Eastern art and dramas
With intellectual llamas
That’s a big step forward you’ll agree!
