Because all you have offered *on this thread* is a variety of insults towards Bob, those who agree with Bob, and anyone who doesn't agree with you. I thought this might be a bit lacking in terms of source material, so I visited another recent thread in which you have participated that may have been of some interest than the OO stuff you pointed me to before: "Little Question for RDM Theoristes". Your handling of JM Davitt there was as bad as anything Bob has handed out (although I don't recall Bob ever accusing someone of calling him an idiot out of nowhere, as you did with Davitt). You assumed a position, did not enunciate that position particularly clearly and rebuked in a variety of ways those who disagreed with you. That, sir, makes you guilty of precisely the behaviour you criticise another for. There's a word for people who behave that way - it might even start with an 'h' ...

Yes; some language and terms are more insulting than others. If I say, "you're being silly," that's one thing. If I say "you're being a cloth-eared idiot," that's another. If I say "you're a clueless moron," that's something else again. If I say "you're a hypocritical mental deficient," that's on quite another plane of insult.

And as I said before, you haven't said anything about RM **on this thread**; all you've done so far is accuse others of BS, hypocrisy, mental deficiency, etc etc etc.

Have I really ? That's a lot of people. If I had known I was insulting that many people I would have expended some effort on it.

Depends how good you are at writing.

Oooh, look ! Patronising paternalism to go with the insults, invective and hypocrisy ! Received on Sat Jun 17 2006 - 17:17:09 CEST
