Who is Wade Englund?

[_sock puppet]

I guess sick and ugly humor is still classified as humor irregardless.

ShadowFox, what does 'irregardless' mean?

ETA: ShadowFox--disregard question above. I was just having one of those rare stick up my arse moments.

Evidently most everyone's mirth inoculations have kicked in and so I will bid you all a most wonderful weekend.

Thanks, -Wade Englud-

I guess it would sound weird if I said I'll help you remove the stick.

eta: regardless or it's lesser known or used brother, irregardless

come to think of it, I'm not sure either word fits into that sentence structure.
Maybe it's a case for the spelling thread.

Some people also think it's fun to pull wings of flies, torment children until they start to cry, poke sticks at cats, etc. Different definitions of fun. One persons ugly humor and fun is another person giggles.

Whatever gets you off Wade.

Here I thought you were on the board to help educate people, but you're just here for giggles. Good luck!

Your behavior shows very little integrity, which is no wonder that trait transfers into your Mormon apologetics.

I know some fantastic LDS women but I would never recommend them on a date with you. You're not good enough for them.

I haven't experienced this much drama since I watched Le Mis a few nights ago. It seems as though I have just been raked over the coals by Javert.Thanks, -Wade Englund-

You haven't experienced this much drama since a few nights ago?

You mean you don't read your own posts?
I thought as much.
lol

nope, you like to dish the drama but you don't like others dishing it your way. One of those, you-can-give-it-but-you-can't-take-it sort of people.

You are one of the biggest apologist drama queens I've known.

No doubt it's why you spend so much time on the forum.
You luvs you some drama, contrary to your claim that you do not like it in other people - especially not a mate.
I've got my urrim and thummim out and I'm able to read through you very well now.

have fun!

You know Wade, what's wrong with promiscuous women? Wouldn't that mean that they enjoyed sex? In your exploits to explain the human sexuality mindset from a Mormon perspective, what is wrong with this?

To be clear, I made no mention of promiscuous women. I was speaking about men. But, in answer to your question, to me promiscuity, particularly in the case of women, has less to do with liking sex and more to do with them not thinking very highly of themselves.

You would be wrong.

How can you champion a cause you have no knowledge of?

Absence of participation does not equal absence of knowledge.

You would again be wrong.

If 1% of the population is asexual http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asexuality, then wouldn't the fact that a person who chose to remain celibate into their latter day years probably qualify? In other words, if you are "holding out" for the right woman, wouldn't the fact that holding out for this long categorize you as at least somewhat asexual?

Absence of sexual encounters does not equal asexuality, though absence of sexual attraction and desire for such encounters does. In my case, there isn't an absence of such attraction and desire for women, and so I don't qualify for the 1%.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-

Wade... your back teeth have to be floating. How can you claim to have a lack of desire and attraction for women to last you into your 50's without having it? Wouldn't this be more indicative of someone who really didn't care about sex?

Please do use 'drama king' in keeping with Wade's gender, or the newly popular 'drama llama' available for use with either gender.

I admit I used 'queen' on purpose.
I repent.
It was sick and ugly humor on my part.
I criticized Wade for using sick humor.
the human condition is strange. He doesn't bring out the best in me.
I'm not a Christian though so I have no traditionally Christian moral standard to try to learn or live up to. Wade did recently write that the purpose of the gospel was to help us become Christlike (paraphrasing) and slammed me for not knowing the gospel. On the other hand, maybe they don't teach about Christ-like traits and behavior in Wade's ward; or he just hasn't been paying attention.
More likely the latter. (love thy neighbor as thyself, Golden rule, etc. )

Maybe he's a gift so I can rise above it.
lol.

... Even with 20+ years of professional experience with unskilled writers ...

You are a teacher... A real one.

The world has to be more.
Even the world of this site.

I really appreciate that, Ludwig. I still think Gramsci's la Città futura and Blake's Jerusalem are worth struggling for...

Wow! Thanks so much! I just read a few pages and I'm already pretty fascinated. It used to be de rigueur in English programs to teach a class in generational reworkings of Milton's Paradise Lost (per Harold Bloom's The Anxiety of Influence). How interesting to see examples outside the British tradition. Naturally, I am with the Blake who writes, “The reason Milton wrote in fetters when he wrote of Angels & God, and at liberty when of Devils & Hell, is because he was a true Poet and of the Devil’s party without knowing it” and will never forget the older Mormon lady who was a student with me in one of those long ago seminars. She could never account for how much more interesting she found Lucifer than Jesus and his Dad...
