What a fucking joke.

I'm not sure why I'm posting this since miles obviously can't read.

Hey shitslinger, am I on your buddy list? You can't wait to post right after me.

Fucknozzle.

I am not a fan of large C&P anyway.

If you read the article a sentence or two stood out. Post that, give your impressions about the rest of the article and link it. Not that hard, really.

No, no, it is! Because free speech! Laurel's obviously just trying to stifle and censor opinions that she doesn't agree with! Pooor miles!
 
Perhaps I am insensitive because I never lack for words of my own.

No, it isn't that hard if one possesses moderate reading skills, the ability to think for one's self, and sufficient command of the language to articulate that thought into the written word.

If you imagine this place as a 1960's cocktail party with the neighbors, the clink of highball and martini glasses, can you conceive of people circulating with pages torn from Life and Time and pointing, "Look, read this!" and having no other interest in expressing themselves?

Like a mime convention.

When I first sauntered into the GB I was regularly accused of unattributed cut and paste. The idea that I might have that much to say on any given subject from thoughts formed in my very own mind and conveyed by my own hunt-and-peck keystrokes was foreign to many.

Then it became, "Cite??" demanding I cut and paste to "bolster" my opinions. Not everyone can express themselves well in writing. It takes some gear-shifting to take a concept in your head, and not only convert that to language, but then type it out. The spoken word is much more natural a process than reading and writing is. This should be a self-selecting population, though. People that choose to engage with others using the written word.

I wonder, sometimes, what some of these people are like as actual conversationalists? Some, from their writing, has me imagining fantastic, illuminating conversation, but maybe the are shy or halting of speech in real life. Maybe some that cannot cobble their thoughts together on paper are fascinating raconteurs in what is inaccurately labeled "real life."

Gives me an idea for a thread. I'll have to think about how to do it though.
 
Yea, its terrible to respect both the law AND the intellectual property of others. Tool.

When you first arrived on the GB, you routinely ascribed outlandish positions to your political opponents. "Studies have shown that most libruls actually enjoy molesting children at some point in their lives!" ...that sort of deliberate poke-in-the-eye stuff that is considered the height of bon mot repartee amongst you second-tier beta males.

Naturally, when we challenged you to back up your specious claims, you folded faster than Superman on laundry day.
 
The only reason they are upset is because it's all about "narrative."

If they can't manipulate the narrative, whats the point?

They have a billion dollar machine doing narrative adjustment 24 hours a day in ten languages.

It's one thing to tell a story. It's another to have an opinion. It's a cat of a different color to expect someone to change his or her opinion so as to agree with another's opinion. In the first two cases, sources are superfluous. In the last case, they become a requirement.

It's perfectly reasonable for different people to have different opinions and to agree to disagree. It is not reasonable to expect someone to alter his or her opinion without good reason, then to lash out with a slew of insults when disagreements happen.

In a sixties-style cocktail party, individuals who lashed out in insults would be invited to leave and never invited back because people were expected to be courteous and polite and conduct themselves with good manners. Sadly, those qualities seem to be lacking for a number of the regulars here. Worse, those who seemingly try to conduct themselves with some degree of decorum are often run off.

fucking idiot.

...and then you gotta show your bigoted, conservative-hating panties again.

No?

Here...

http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=1125259

...that is a GB thread dedicated to the intentionl practice of illegally downloading others' copyrighted works - not simply c&ping to share news/words on the GB, but with the premeditated intent to steal others' copyrighted word so the thief doesn't have to pay to criminally hold it in his own possession, for his own enjoyment.

You made an appearance in that thread, too, neci, as did lukatehisowndyk, bullcrapslinger, and Rubshimselfdownsout...

...all of you whom now conveniently pose to slam the practice of copyright violation in this thread.

Where's your bigotedly hateful, "fucking idiot" in that thread, neci?

Here's the link to the illegal download GB thread again:

http://forum.literotica.com/showthread.php?t=1125259

Note how enthusiastic Rubshimselfdownsouth, lukatehisowndyk, and bullcrapslinger are about intentionally stealing the copyrighted works of others for their own criminal use...

...and note the other enthusiastic thieves in the thread, beginning with the threadstarter de Wannabe, yossi, girlsmiley, doctor insanus and, of course, pointless and seaniepoo.

Also note, neci, how many of your despised "conservatives" like miles participate in that thread...

...what is your summation of the participation rate of progressives vs conservatives in a thread whose sole purpose is as a meeting place for thieves to share tips about intentionally stealing others' copyrighted works for their own criminal use?

And, again:

Where's your bigotedly hateful, "fucking idiot" in that thread, neci?

BTW:

What does "anospecia" mean?

Speaking of intentionally disingenuous "outlandish positions" taken, and when challenged to back up such specious claims, you fold faster than a speeding bullet on steroids:

You once threatened to tell the entire GB everything Grace told you about me - remember? What happened, Rubshimselfdownsouth?

Did you finally figure out that you'd just be giving away the 100x more significant relationship you and Grace shared compared to the 3, maybe 4 PM "relationship" Grace and I shared while she was onBoard the good ship GB, and the 2, maybe 3 emails we shared after your good buddy seaniepoo outed her?

Did you finally figure out that many on the GB accept my facts of the matter, and consider your and your buddies seaniepoo's, lukatehisowndyk's, and the racist verityboy's gossip magazine version of the Grace affair as simply the bullcrap you all 4 are plenty full of...

...and that, no doubt, the great majority of the rest of the litizens of the GB don't give a sh!t about your relationship with Grace at all, and especially couldn't care less for the "outlandish positions" you need to insecurely wield against another just to try to veil your devastating butthurt you still desperately hold onto from Grace playing you like the little punk you are?

C'mon, Rubby...

...I really do want to read what you post Grace said about me.

Don't be making threats that you don't back up...

...'cause then you simply prove yourself to be exactly what you accuse query of being. :D

I'll totally understand if you need to take today and tomorrow off to think about what to post about what you imagine Grace told you about me...

...I mean, why spend any of your off-the-job time on such personal, trivial stuff when you can just wait till Monday when you usually spend so very, very much of your worktime, your employer's time, on your employer's equipment, posting on LIT and committing your crimes of illegally downloading others' copyrighted work?
 
I usually assume people that post full articles have doubts about their ability to put cogent thoughts into their own words, doubts which in most cases are well founded.

Given that Miles's "original" posts rarely go beyond one sentence, you can see why having to steal from others is especially necessary.

The good news is that he got to c&p the title of this thread directly from the warnings given to him, thus reducing the likelihood of further "stupdity" on his part.
