Believe whatever you like, but this does not change reality.

If Pumble is really all that confused about Coffee's boasting and tough talk, then he's never met a Marine. Every successful Marine I've met thinks he's the biggest bad ass on the planet and likely exaggerates and fabricates as needed to keep the good stories coming.


I've had more that enough contact with most branches of the Armed Forces of the US and other countries. Marines I know do not need to pretend to be tough to show they are Marines, they rely on the fact they are Marines at all to show this. Nothing else needs to be said. I know quite a few Special Forces members of all varieties, and they are also quiet people in general. They know their actual abilities, and did not need ego stroking from others. Perhaps you hang around an insecure lot.

I'm not impressed by Pumble's debunking. There are some inconsistencies in Coffee's story yet that's all consistent with his story. If Coffee's broader claims are correct, I'd be more wary of a carefully crafted and polished narrative. Nothing so far Pumble has brought to the table convinces me that Coffee is not a war hero. Coffee should really, really, be careful about how far he takes the personal battles online. But I believe he's a marine who's seen combat and if it turns out I'm wrong on that, oh well. Scam of the century huh?


You cannot reason, which is completely unsurprising. Like I said, believe whatever you like, it does not change reality. All the necessary evidence is there. If you cannot analyze it correctly, then I suppose this is your burden.

Coffee's motorcycle stories also make sense to me. There are a lot of YOUNG marines without any savings who put near that into Mustangs and sport bikes etc. where I live.


Coffee claims to be 37.

FYI: Stalker hasn't "outted" anyone or anything, no one is "yelling" at him, "flip flopping" (whatever the hell that means) doesn't equal "stupid", Terri Schiavo died well over 2 years ago...


obsessed much?

p.s And oh yeah, when i get "embarrassed" I'll be sure to make an announcement to that effect.

Stalker rises to the podium and spits out this stuff:

I can always point out that you were all stupid and fell for Coffee's stupidity because despite your continued criticisms of Mormons, your reasoning skills are as abysmal as those you seek to criticize. This is nothing less that a massive, ironic pit of hypocrisy.

Except I am the only person who was not duped into idiocy by Coffee. I am the only one who employed actual reasoning skills. I am the only one who saw through his bluster and lies with little effort. I am the only person who exhibited the most minute reasoning skills, especially from a group claiming to be critical thinkers.


Delusions of grandiosity garnished with a smidgeon of narcissism. Next patient, please.

To one of little intelligence I can understand how two years can seem like a significant time, but some people can remember two year old information (oftentimes information decades older than that).

What you call obsession and stalking is simply an inability to comprehend what intelligence actually is. It is amazing what reading and memory can do when properly employed, and sadly enough this is what you call stalking, reading and reasoning. Oddly enough you simply cannot do it.

Stalker trips back up to the podium for this claim:


I've had more that enough contact with most branches of the Armed Forces of the US and other countries.


Had any contact with a mental healthcare professional lately?

No crap. And some people catalog the stuff! Got files?

Yes. I store them in my brain. That's what a memory is, stored information, or files if you like.

We all know that a given percentage of us are trolls, big deal. Oh no - we all just got suckered into believe a poster is female when he's really male (for instance).

True, that.

However, I anticipate that Pumplehoober may say that there was risk involved in that 1) we had death threats and 2) we were emotionally manipulated with tales of a son's death.

I think those would be valid points and is why I tend not to be emotionally attached on the internet. Of course I'm not much for emotionally attached at all, but anyhow . . .

As to Law Enforcement, I was indeed thinking of consulting lawyers first. Not only is my father an attourney, but I also have a few other connections that way as well (and they may very well tell me that nothing can be done, but at least then I'll have done my part).

As to whether Coffee was lying or not, I once again don't care. As to what he contributed I also made no comment. Pumplehoober is too foolish not to have realized that. I think I'm beginning to see a patter . . .

Alright, perhaps I should stop throwing his condescending boast back at him. It's not like I really care one way or the other. I'm just not particularly fond of having him belittle those whom I know to be intelligent posters such as Jersey Girl, you (Gad), or Liz (among others). The only person he may have tagged right is myself. I guess I was just good at snowing my math/engineering professors into thinking I knew the material. Either that or electrical engineering is something any old fool can do.

Well of course not..

Can you make a list of people who you think can reason? Would the list be greater than a single person(yourself)? If so, would anyone on the list have ever disagreed with you on anything?

Asb,

Just a note, while I began my post as a response to a couple things you said, it sort of evolved into general comments on the thread.
Lou Midgley 08/20/2020: "...meat wad," and "cockroach" are pithy descriptions of human beings used by gemli? They were not fashioned by Professor Peterson.

LM 11/23/2018: one can explain away the soul of human beings...as...a Meat Unit, to use Professor Peterson's clever derogatory description of gemli's ideology.

Actually, so did mine and I hope you don't think I was attacking you.

As I am one who judges people by contributions, it is my opinion that you, Liz, Jersey Girl, and many others all have contributed in ways much better than Pumplehoober has. I mean I kinda like y'all. Not, I'm sure, that he'll particularly care. After all how much should a guy care who has to go around condmening someone for being a braggart while yet boasting his own intelligence--a boast largely accomplished by attacking the intelligence of everyone else? Genius boy must have earned about a dozen Nobel Prizes by now with that clearly superior intellect of his that everyone else is just too stupid to notice. An intellect so superior it requires his constant effort to bring it to our attention.
