I would say that would categorize a large percentage of the posters here--the "angry person all the time" thing.

I think you're confusing sarcasm/cynicism/general cattiness with the real anger vibe I get from Ray. Pahoran has it too. When you're talking to them it's like you're expecting that any minute they'll turn green and rip their pants.

nah...our different perspective see different things apparently. I'm saying I see what you see in Ray here is what I see in a large percentage of posters here. Indeed, in many ways I see Ray, as he has expressed himself in this thread, to fit in here nicely. And I've always been one to point out those who post here with a similar vain as Pahoran. There are quite a few. I fear you are blind to it, though.

Who, for example, is like Pahoran? Actually, not even Ray is close to pure hate and rage that incontinently splatters forth from the keyboard of yon Pahoran. He takes it to a new level.

That is, actually, quite revealing, Molok. Sadly you guys think that's pretty cool and healthy.


My words are not the result of some committee decision, so there is no "you guys" here.

I don't know if you are sincere in this request or not, Buffalo. For one, you obviously have a skewed view of Pahoran, for another, you have a skewed view of many of your fellow MD posters. Schreech is one who is more hostile than Pahoran, for instance. Many Times I've pointed out how DJ behaves as quite the corrolary to Pahoran at times. I actually realize, Buffalo, that you won't see it that way. What more can I say?
