Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: RIP Robert H Bork on November 07, 2011, 02:16:40 PM Whoa there! This requires explanation. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home. on November 07, 2011, 02:22:00 PM BRTD must have asked Gustaf his opinion of BRTD's religious threads
Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Gustaf on November 07, 2011, 02:26:16 PM This is highly amusing. Thank you, BRTD.

Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Lief 🗽 on November 07, 2011, 02:29:19 PM I would vote for my main man and former fellow passenger of the Cain Train, jsfmtc.
Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: I spent the winter writing songs about getting better on November 07, 2011, 02:32:26 PM jmfcst should be a mod. He'd be better than most of the current ones.
I bet even opebo would agree. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home. on November 07, 2011, 02:59:07 PM jmfcst should be a mod.

Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Swing low, sweet chariot. Comin' for to carry me home. on November 07, 2011, 05:56:52 PM so, what is this little spat all about?
Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: I spent the winter writing songs about getting better on November 07, 2011, 10:43:22 PM I voted for jmfcst because he's a good Christian who stood up to the mods and can get along and tolerate people unlike him, such as opebo. Gustaf on the other hand is not only one of the power-hungry mods he has no sense of humor or tolerance of people who disagree with him.

Gustaf on the other hand is not only one of the power-hungry mods he has no sense of humor or tolerance of people who disagree with him. You've succeeded in becoming so bizarre that it is actually funny. Well done. I'm sure there is a trope for that. Yes, there is. Consider this a homage to your self-fail, BRTD. Only for you: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SoBadItsGood (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SoBadItsGood) Just to be clear, you're thinking that someone like you or Opebo who literally want to kill people who disagree with you are more tolerant than I because I disagree with you on killing people with different views? Also, I'll maintain that me laughing at you and you becoming upset about it does not indicate that I don't have a sense of humour. It's more that I disagree that the attempts at jokes you make are funny. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: I spent the winter writing songs about getting better on November 08, 2011, 10:55:41 AM When have I advocated killing people with different views? Maybe in the past before embracing Christ, but certainly not now, IIRC I opposed even banning Libertas and Einzige, banning someone on a message board is certainly a lot more mild than killing them. As did opebo who also opposed the banning of jmfcst, the fact that you take all his hyperbolic statements 100% seriously is another reason why I don't think you have much of a sense of humor.

You are more complex than that. :) Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Gustaf on November 08, 2011, 05:14:20 PM When have I advocated killing people with different views?

Your outpouring of hatred against people with different views has been a phenomenon. Irish, Catholics, South African policemen, Nader supporters... And, of course, because I have a sense of humour I don't take your hyperbolic Christianity seriously so I'm still holding you to those views. I don't really take Opebo as seriously as you seem to think. I used to enjoy ripping his "arguments" apart but lately he has become too pathetic for it to be any fun. The sheer sadness of his life is shining through and he has lost any semblance of funniness that he might have had at some point. What I don't understand is that I thought the reason you thought him cool in the first place was that you thought he was real? If you think he's pretending and making up the majority of his stupid posts, then what makes him special? Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: Ban my account ffs! on November 08, 2011, 05:20:19 PM It's only a matter of time before BRTD is a bitter conservative fundie Republican living in the suburbs.
Seriously, BRTD... you have a major problem with obsessions. Church/Christianity is just your latest one.. and I think just like all the other ones you've had in your tenure on Atlas, it will pass. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: opebo on November 08, 2011, 05:36:58 PM Gustaf, stop badgering BRTD for having taste. The fact is no one likes your adolescent arrogance, why should they? Mr. 'getting revenge on his teachers'. :)

I suspect it is mostly that people who are being perfectly serious like to take refuge behind the defense of others having no sense of humour when they get beaten. Sort of like sexual harassers often do. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: opebo on November 08, 2011, 07:45:04 PM Jmf at least has a sense of humor.

No, it wasn't an attempt at humor at all.

Oh, you were being a humourless bore then? Here I was giving you the benefit of the doubt. Since we're on my home turf I will answer in style then. Since I can get along very well with a lot of people without having to pay them I suspect you're wrong on this one. I mean, a guy who can't even get along with his own family probably shouldn't be giving any lectures on that topic. I guess I might be a bit arrogant though. Almost as if I was constantly praising my own wit on an internet forum without any proper basis for it.

Almost as if I was constantly praising my own wit on an internet forum without any proper basis for it. Come on, now, its a popular notion on this forum that I'm a witty and amusing fellow, don't you know? But honestly I love humor for its own sake, not for the accolades (after all they're not from people I actually know, so it doesn't mean all that much). To be honest my conversations here are sometimes a little less conducive to wit because the English level, while good enough for communication, doesn't seem to transmit humor as well. That said, my proudest moments here have been when I say something witty enough in Thai to get a table of them laughing, and I have done so quite a few times.

If I were you I'd direct my effort to trying to impress some people you meet in real life. And maybe work on being less repetitive (and less crude). I recommend reading the Reginald stories by Saki. Good inspiration in them, I'd say. Title: Re: Gustaf vs. jmfcst Post by: opebo on November 08, 2011, 08:45:08 PM If I were you I'd direct my effort to trying to impress some people you meet in real life. Done already, Gustaf, effortlessly. That is, if they're persons of discerning taste. Of course I also brown-nose heavily, but that's different. Do you say 'brown-nose' in Sweden? Its one of my favorites, and hands-down the most well-received of the slangs I have imparted to my Thai friends. I recommend reading the Reginald stories by Saki. Good inspiration in them, I'd say. Also done already, in my teens, Gustaf. But a fine suggestion - I suggest you share it with your peers. I'm old and well-read already.
