If I Did It: Chapter 7 - LoaP

[_Doctor Scratch]

Don't forget Doctor Scratch, that LoaP left the board for a long time. How could he have possibly known what you were saying here? On many occasions you've complimented Richard Bushman and have even stood by your own moral guns to disagree with me on what to make of him. You've complimented Bokovoy several times. In reality, you've been very nice.

Yes, I believe that's true. Thank you, Dean Robbers. Perhaps we can later indulge in a screening of Kishkumen & Robbers's Outstanding Excursion Through Hate-Mongering Mopologetic Purgatory. I even hear it's silent, and in glorious black-and-white!

LoaP didn't even have the thought of coming back here until he was struck with the prospect of siding with DCP in order to -- over and over again -- use the word "lying" in sentences about me. The terrible irony here, is that in his own urgency to out me, he had to employ deceptive means, and in the last couple of posts he's branded himself a liar.

Well, this will be a test of his integrity. If he is a true mensch, then he'll apologize for approaching you with devious intentions.

Meaning what? That you also think Mopologetics is "lame"? Your logic is pretty shoddy here, LoaP. Your diss on the critics can only work if you, too, think Mopologetics is "lame."

Meaning exactly what I said. If \, for the sake of argument, I grant that your statistic is true, that makes your online persona all the more ridiculous. It would be like an adult who stops by the elementary school every day to challenge some third graders to a formal debate about business ethics. What is the joy in victory there? If half the crap you make up were true or remotely important, your case would be pretty sad, indeed.

Parenthetically, what is the good .01%? Can you identify it? I don't remember you doing so, and am surprised to see you didn't just say 100%.

I've said before that I think Richard Bushman is an example that more apologists should follow. I also like Ben McGuire, and I get along with quite a few other amateur Mopologists. David Bokovoy is a good guy, too. If he become the de facto leader of the new generation of Mopologists, then that is a good sign.

Get off your ass and follow their examples, then!

Perhaps Will will favor us with a little accompaniment on his spooky organ. I'll dig out the popcorn popper!

First there was a problem recognizing satire and now there is a problem recognizing hyperbole. For Pete's sake, dude.

I wasn't deceptive in the least. This is sheer nonsense.

My biggest regret is taking you seriously enough to actually wonder if you were presenting and then asking you about it. Clearly I had doubts, but I asked in order to find out if you were and if so, to meet, etc. I won't make the mistake again with you.

Why am I even arguing with you about it? I'm sorry I wasted my time.

"Crap"? Wow, I see that the false mask of calm interaction is revealing itself as a ruse. You are a very angry individual, LoaP. Later, you even stoop to using profanity. I guess that's what Mopologetics is like, deep down?

And, your comparison isn't very good. Here you are, criticizing Gad for being "lame," and then, when someone jokes with you that 99.99% of Mopologetics is "lame," you turn around and say that anyone who would dare to criticize something "lame" is him/herself "ridiculous" and "pathetic." So, in fact, LoaP, you have essentially branded yourself as being "ridiculous" and "pathetic," since here you are, in a state of near apoplexy, criticizing something which you said was "lame."

Parenthetically, what is the good .01%? Can you identify it? I don't remember you doing so, and am surprised to see you didn't just say 100%.

Why? I'm not a Mopologist.

I'm just astonished at the two-facedness and false niceness here. It's like, "Oh, hey, I think you're lying, so I'll pump you for information, and pretend like I'm interested in meeting you. But, hey, since you objected to what I was doing, I'm never ever going to pretend to be nice to you ever again."

What a piece of work.

I am positively dumbstruck.

When your biggest regret should be approaching me under false pretenses, as Doctor Scratch has observed. You yourself admitted plain as day that your primary interest was discovering whether or not I was really presenting yet you misrepresented yourself as having only ever been interested in hanging out and being chums at the conference. A conference you didn't really believe I'd be at. You branded yourself a liar, Life On A Plate. It's a judgement you made yourself above, not a name I wanted to call you.

[_Doctor Scratch]

Does anyone want to place a bet on whether or not LoaP will turn up on this thread claiming that, in fact, he was not angry in his last profane post? Then again, I imagine that I would be red in the face too if I had just gotten pwned by Dean Robbers in this fashion.
