I have a question about all of us, and Wade, and that question is:

Why do we keep trying to have conversations with him?

He reminds me of a mindset that I never want to be. Rigid and blind. Forms of loyalty and religion that is repugnent to me.

Because we can. Wade is worthy of being accorded dignity and respect because he is a fellow human being.

Along with what Moksha said, I've often wondered what it would be like to be Wade.

I mean, how easy would life be if everyone were wrong but oneself?

For my part, I have tried from the beginning to deal with Wade civilly and respectfully. If I have not succeeded, Wade, I apologize. But sometimes it seems just like this (and I'm acknowledging my part in the inanity):

Pee-wee: I wouldn't sell my bike for all the money in the world. Not for a hundred million, trillion, billion dollars!
Francis: Then you're crazy!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
Francis: You're a nerd!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
Francis: You're an idiot!
Pee-wee: I know you are but what am I?
Pee-Wee, Francis: I know you are but what am I? I know you are but what am I? I know you are but what am I?
Pee-wee: Infinity!
Francis: No, I'm not.
Francis, Pee-Wee: You are! No way! Knock it off! Cut it out!
Francis: Shut up, Pee-wee!
Pee-wee: Why don't you make me?
Francis: You make me!
Pee-wee: Because. I don't make monkeys, I just train 'em.
Francis: Pee-wee, listen to reason.
[Pee-Wee cuffs his hand around his ear in a listening motion]
Francis: Pee-wee!
Pee-wee: Sh! I'm listening to reason.
Francis: Pee-wee!
Pee-wee: That's my name, don't wear it out.
Francis: Remember the first time I saw your bike? You came riding passed my house and I came running out to tell you how much I liked it even way back then?
Pee-wee: I love that story.
[jumps on bike and pedals away]
Francis: You'll be sorry, Pee-wee Herman!

Um, I don't. I pick with him like you would an annoying scab, otherwise I really don't pay him much attention.

He wants you to engage with him, so he can use his false logic and his superiority complex to his best advantage.

Folks, Wade Englund has been using every person on this board who is willing to take him seriously for a good bout of psychological masturbation.

Deprive him, and his ego/dick will shrink, and hopefully he'll go away.

Mok, I applaud your willingness to treat every human being with dignity, but I draw the line at people who aren't willing to ever do it with me. Wade is one of those folks. At best he should be pitied, at worst ignored.

Entertainment.

I do not know why we engage him either...respect is a two way street as far as I know....But Wade seems to think it runs one way only his way....

I tend not to read his idiotic posts to tell you the truth they are to long and annoying...I just read everyone elses and respond to what they are saying....

GIMR has a point and so does Moshka...but I found ignoring annoying people usually works best...

Like the ant under a magnifying glass type entertainment? Or is it another kind?

Entertainment is the main reason i'm on this board in general. Wade's just part of the entertainment.
