Nicki K. perhaps the most insidious troll on the forum (previously know as E. coli) may state the obvious about himself, but methinks he is also speaking about the entire doomer community

"I'm gonna tell you something you arrogant bastard. I never claimed to be some kind of damned genius"

Truer words were never spoken.

Stood up again, Helen? That's okay, the Yourdon BB is here for you. Let it all out...

Nik and E.Coli are not the same people Helen, their writing styles are different and I remember E.Coli as being more anarchic. Both in the same league intellectually, with a firm grasp of the domestic and international situation and the treasonous machinations of our sun- king. Open your eyes Helen - remember that little (black) kid a while back that refused to shake Clinton's hand on TV - That's Nik, E and myself. In contrast the camera would not have spotted you as you would gave been below eye level...

Helen,

Are you trying to establish a new standard for the forum - that we all must qualify as a genius? In that case, do you qualify? (I doubt it!)

-- @ (@@@.@), May 02, 1999.

Dano - this explains evrything...

A woman was very distraught at the fact that she had not had a date, nor any sex in quite sometime. She was afraid she might have something wrong with her, so she decided to employ the medical expertise of a sex therapist. Her MD recommended that she go see Dr. Chang, the well-known sex therapist. So, she went to see him.

Upon entering the examination room, Dr. Chang said, OK, take off all your crose. So she did. Now, get down and crawl reery fass to the other side of room. So, she did. Dr. Chang then said, OK now crawl reery fass to me, so she did again. Dr. Chang slowly shook his head and said Your probrem vewy bad, you haf Ed Zachary Disease, worse case I ever see, that why you not haf sex or dates. Confused, the woman asked, What is the Ed Zachary Disease? Dr.Chang replied, It when your face rook Ed Zachary rike your butt.

Ahhhh Andy me boy, you do have a way with words. It's been a long hard weekend for some of us (the dateless and the clueless) and I guess ole Helen just had to let loose. I have looked at her post verrryyy carefully and I think what she posted in Bold type is actually her own statement, and she never actually got around to mentioning what Nicki K. had said. I believe this is called turret's syndrome (sp) or something like that. It very unnerving to be around, but basically harmless. Sometimes it's accompanied by a whole string of profanity. ROTFLMAO

"Both in the same league intellectually, with a firm grasp of the domestic and international situation".

Hahahaha, that's a good one. They're both poorly-educated and given to totalitarian paranoid thinking. From what I can tell, they spend all their time reading right-wing fringe rags and posting on the internet. Not exactly heavy-lifters, intellectually speaking.

And I find it interesting how all the nuts gang up on Helen and slur her with bitch/sex comments. Shows the level of these people. Talk about trolls.

Finally, I find it interesting how the nuts are always championing freedom and democracy, but are quite ready to kill Clinton and overthrow the government (to what end - so they can run it? Now THAT is scary).

Dictators in "patriot" clothing. The worst kind. Fortunately they're too stupid to be a real threat.

-- Nospam (Nospam@nospam.com), May 02, 1999.

For all the old regulars out there:

It strikes me that this thread, while not particularly any more assinine that others where the trolls get together to vomit on each other, is probably for me the a icon of the death of this board as mostly usefull place.

Really sorry to see itall go down hill. But I guess that's the nature of free speach.

-- Greybear (greybear@home.com), May 02, 1999.

Helen...if you don't like it here, leave. With your sour attitude toward life, I doubt seriously if you will be missed. No Spam, same for you.

Both of you need to get a hold on reality and realize that:

1. You accomplish nothing by your sourness 2. You manage to alienate the moderates on this forum from your posts. 3. It is still a free country and we are still somewhat protected by the First Amendment...whether you like it or not. 4. Appearance of your posts on this board is not mandantory.

Greybear...I agree wholeheartedly. Maybe Ed should start a subscription charge and demand the right to block any member not following the tenets of the mission statement. I would join for one. Don't leave. Disgust with the above posters should not be a reason to desert the other good folks on this board.

-- Lobo (atthelair@yahoo.com), May 03, 1999.

Yup,

A lot of good men put it all on the line (including Pop Deedah, who explored caves while on tour in the Pacific a few years back) so that Helen could start a pissing contest, ain't freedom annoying at times?

And then there's that jackass DIEteR fellow...

Regards,

-- Mr Deedah (oncebitten@twiceshy.com), May 03, 1999.

Ha ha ha ha. Boy what a wknd can do.

-- R. Wright (blaklodg@aol.com), May 03, 1999.

Lobo,

It's not just this thread or just this one poster.

It's like having a decent, interesting conversation with civilized people and all of a sudden the room is invaded by 50 nasty assed little yipping Pomerainens running around craping on the floor and pissing on you leg. Yes, the converstion may be continuning but the aggrivatioin level can just get to be too much.

I guess now I'll get hate mail from the National Association for the Protection of Pomerainens from Slanderous Remarks. Once your're a certified Wacko, Extreemist, Doomer, Felonious Food Stoorer, Gun and Violence Advocate who loves to see little children suffer and die, being added to the rolls of animal haters is sort of like gilding the lilly, no?

oh, well.

-- Greybear (greybear@home.com), May 03, 1999.

Greybear -- There used to be a few clever and intelligent trolls. The quality of trolling has really deteriorated. Maybe we could start a "Troll Correspondence Course?" (TCC)

"Call 1-800-555- TROL for a school near you..."

-- PNG (png@gol.com), May 03, 1999.

Lighten up Greybear - the forum is going through a silly season at the moment, can't you see it?

The calm before the storm :) (And THIS is the calm...)

-- Andy (2000EOD@prodigy.net), May 03, 1999.

I admit i troll occasionaly, but lightheartedly, i think. Could it be the fine spring weather enjoyed by many in the last wk?

-- R. Wright (blaklodg@aol.com), May 03, 1999.

Wee Andy sputtered:

"Nik and E.Coli are not the same people Helen, their writing styles are different and I remember E.Coli as being more anarchic. Both in the same league intellectually, with a firm grasp of the domestic and international situation"

Anyone having read the prolific rantings of N.K. over the last week or so can only chuckle and shake their head at Andy's description. "Firm grasp"...hee,hee.

Such is the doomer intellect...

Good Morning PD, glad to let you start your day with a titter :)

Although I am not shy about bad-mouthing BJ Clinton's antics, I try not to get into flame-throwing contests. It is my observation that this forum is as it is because there is no way to attack the most abusive posters. On USENET, you can trace all but the most sophisticated posters, and either launch a "syn-flood attack" or complain to their ISP. Here, there is no retalitory action possible, except the feeble action of killing posts.

Probably the only solution here, without requiring registration and real email addresses, is to have a moderator. The moderator would need to pre-approve messages before they are posted. This would result in something approaching a 24-hour delay.

-- Anonymous99 (Anonymous99@Anonymous99.xxx), May 03, 1999.

I'm back. Anything which brings such joy to Y2K Pro's life is obviously the wrong thing to do, so I guess I'll hang around a little longer. Helen, congratulations on sharing the same given name as my mother, though that seems to be the end of the similarity. Andy and Greybear, have you ever watched one of those nature films where the Jackals and the Vultures gather to feast on the entrails of the carcass? Or seen a particularly viscious gathering of relatives ransacking the posessions of a recently deceased? I going to have to quit more often, this is the most fun I've had in a while.

-- Nikoli Krushev (doomsday@y2000.com), May 03, 1999.

" Helen, congratulations on sharing the same given name as my mother, though that seems to be the end of the similarity."

Actually the other similarity we share is that we are both ashamed of our sons, mine because he is two and still not toilet trained. Yours, because you turned into a psychopath.

-- Helen Wheels (helen@wheel.s), May 03, 1999.

My condolences on your inability to teach your son that which I have taught to dogs in a few days. Maybe you should try altering his diet, a lack of vegetables is often the culprit in these cases. You'll probably be saddened to hear that my mother shares my political views and owns several guns as well.

-- Nikoli Krushev (doomsday@y2000.com), May 03, 1999.

Obviously Nikoli has never been a father.

It's a common myth that owning a dog is good training for raising children. Apples and oranges.

You gonna train your 2 yr. old to pee on fire-hydrants?

"You'll probably be saddened to hear that my mother shares my political views and owns several guns as well."

She told me she bought the guns to make sure all of her customers pay her after her(ahem)services were rendered.
