Comments on: You Can’t Make this Shit Up! AvaTards Blame “technical problems” for stolen content! http://alphavilleherald.com/2006/12/you_cant_make_t.html Always Fairly Unbalanced Tue, 04 Oct 2016 13:18:56 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Ordinal Malaprop http://alphavilleherald.com/2006/12/you_cant_make_t.html/comment-page-1#comment-39072 Ordinal Malaprop Thu, 28 Dec 2006 12:46:57 +0000 http://localhost/wp_2/?p=1649#comment-39072 It's very kind of you to say so, and to an extent validates my feelings on reading the comments on the latest piece about the Avastar. So many people popping up to defend the publication, when the Herald, let us face it, has already some form in the field of less-than-complimentary commentary on other publications and individuals, as well as the use of nicknames (quite apart from the fact that supposed "professional journalists" acting like teenage Livejournalers, "u said i suck, u r banned and i will report u for chat logs griefer", is something deserving of mockery - not that that actually means they are _not_ professional journalists, knowing how journalists behave, but I digress). How peculiar that this seems to be the last straw for so many people at once.

Wrong - it's the normal background paranoia that Sl is infused with Malaprop. How can I tell? Well, you haven't, yet, started foaming at the mouth and biting people at random like a rabid dog. THAT'S personal paranoia. As such, not exceeding the normal background level of paranoia, makes your musings very pertinent... “I’m sure it’s just paranoia on my part.”

You needn't extend any faux worry my direction there big shooter. I had a house full of relatives an hour after my last comment. Perhaps I should be feigning worry about a guy who can't manage to stop mother henning his blog on Christmas Day? Is YOUR life actually that pathetic that you have to be here defending this trainwreck on Christmas day? As to your earlier comment about not changing anything --- I don't expect you to change anything here, in fact, given your history and personality, I do believe my jaw would hit the floor if you did! Meth? No, nothing harder than a Stella please, and the back rub will come from my wife, but thanks for thinking and worrying about me Uri. It's truly touching to see such goodwill emanate from someone who is usually so full of themself. “It doesn’t Juarez, I just worry about a guy who has nothing better to do on Christmas day than go to someone elses blog about an online world and complain about the content, and then keep coming back to try as hard as you can to insult one of the writers.

For one, I've already read those "articles" that I will. Can you point out where I said I wouldn't entertain your responses to me? Do I need to point out the difference between a comment discussion and reading actual articles? I hope not. Who said I "hated" reading it? I merely turned the hose back on you all for once, and your hissyfit reaction really just bears out my point. There ARE other blogs I enjoy. Several of them. How does their existence create a scenario by which you think you yourself should be immune to criticism? Merry Christmas vato. I am involved in a dialogue with you.
