That's "You're fired, Jesus" surely?

I was going for the double entendre.

Well, he would have some transferable skills based on his universe-making track record. Managing the US federal budget comes to mind.
God belief is for people who don't want to live life on the universe's terms.

Not sure I can agree that is generally true. There comes a point where someone is babbling so much that they significantly degrade the signal-to-noise ratio of a thread, and at that point is is reasonable to indicate that is all they are doing.


There are other ways of letting someone know they've exceeded your personal noise-to-signal ratio than patronizing them with "I was teaching..." blah blah blah. A simple "We're not communicating well here" would suffice, and the head pat you just administered would not sink the person into a demeaning puddle.

You're obviously a very articulate person, with a great deal of knowledge and a great deal of education, none of which matters much here. She's not one of your students. Your professional status and expertise has little if any bearing on the discussions here. Daniel has a very similiar problem, in that he thinks we're all fools and idiots with miniscule comprehension skills and no life experience. You seem like a good chap. I'd hoped you wouldn't descend to his level. Perhaps it was simply that you forgot where you were for a second.

Until you started posting under the "Imwashingmypirates" account instead of your sockpuppet I had no reason what so ever to have knowledge or even care about your existence (and honestly, I still don't really care about the latter). That's as dumb as saying since until someone mentioned that Droopy used to be known as Coggins that I should have known that upon signing up for this board.

Seriously, Emogirl... Get a grip.

Not my problem if you lack the ability to clearly communicate. Myself and others have asked what you meant and all we got for our troubles is more idiotic word games instead of a serious discussion.

Then why is it you live in the UK, apparently long enough to get someone at RAF Flyingdales to give you a written recommendation to a university, and you claim under your JonasS sockpuppet to be learning how to use the English language?

If you are not reading all of my posts angus then how can you sit here and argue with me. READ what I am saying before jumping to conclusions. You are begining to come across as an adolescent pain in the ass and I am almost at the end of my tether and unless you read what I am saying and stop with the throwing of nonsensical crap and ad hom statements, I will no longer acknowledge your existence. I know who I am, unlike yourself, and this is no longer about anything to do with any topic with relevence to these threads, this has just become shear attack and defence and I am almost incline to mock everything you are saying and attack back, but why should I lower myself to that level?

Learn to effectively communicate so that what I do read doesn't sound like teenage drama.


Imwashingmypirate wrote:and ad hom statements


Ok, show me the ad hominem statements I've made then. Do you even know what an "Ad Hominem" is, little girl?


Imwashingmypirate wrote:I will no longer acknowledge your existence.


Oh, please do... No seriously.

And all of this started over me making a smart ass comment and you saying that Jesus really could be a light source. Hilarity and butthurt ensued.

See, I already know what a Photon is and I have no need to google it. I never asked what tl;dr meant and so once again I have no need to google.

UGH No it is NOT. that's like me saying I could be drinking orange juice is the same as I am drinking orange juice.

Yeah and there has been more said about my sock puppet since your arrival to this board than there has been mention of my Physics degree and you have probably been in the thread where my sockpuppet was discussed so don't BS me.

Not my problem if you lack the ability to clearly communicate. Myself and others have asked what you meant and all we got for our troubles is more idiotic word games instead of a serious discussion.

It is your problem if you are not willing to read what I say. You never asked what I meant not once. All it has been is attacking and assuming.

Ugh read everything I said. I do believe I mentioned that due to cicumstances my english was poor because I lived in my own bubble and if you knew me you would know that I am actually Scottish, thus the reason Chap assumed I studied at a Scottish university but infact I am studying at an English university.

Imwashingmypirate wrote:READ WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN!!!!

That is not a characteristic of an emo, that is me getting rather pissed of at your arseholism and I could do the same back to you that you are doing to me. i can call you names. I know I am not an emo and I very rarely get this pissed off. I am sure you are genious enough to have gone through the back logs and searched me out. And perhaps I have had a few bad days as does everyone. But most of the time I bounce along without a care in the world and joke about everything, but you see, I have seen this behaviour before. You Psychopathic moron. You know where I have seen it? I seen it in a man that could not back himself up rationally and had to retort to aggression and repetition of key words and labels to fight his case by belittling the opponent, so all you are shjowing me is your current state of mind. Your choice.

It's not Why should you, it is because part of you knows you are in the wrong.

Ugh get a life. Ok, IF (and I will make that big and bold seeing as you missed that before) I were an emo, then so what, I'd rather be an emo than a psychotic asshole.
