Lord Gyric's Random Thoughts

Random Brain droppings, interesting (to me) things, and general stuff about my life and thought processes. Also, the occasional rant about life and living, and the odd Bawdy song or recipe thrown in for good measure

Name:
Location: Fort Erie, Ontario, Canada

I'm 33 years old, married, have three kids, and am basically a nice guy in wolf's clothing...

The opposite side calling the kettle black...

Hi Gang...

Copied this off the uniblogger's site. This person was attacking the positive side, but made our point better than even I could...

Quote:

Any new vision, idea, concept or even plain old common sense is scorned and attacked! They live in a cave and their silly little world is all there that exists. They have no idea how the rest of the world sees them.

Forgive them. The more they spew their hate the more they show the world their true selves. They do not yet understand that they are puppets for the benefit and profit of others.

The rest of the world has arrived.

Thank you Anonymous.

That about says it all.

Nice of you to call out Bowers and the rest of the Negative Nancys.

Godwin's Law

Ok, from the internet comes the most famous Law...slightly more famous than Rule 34 of the internet, which is If you can think of some bizarre whacky disgusting kink, it already has at least 10 websites.

No, I'm talking about Godwin's Law. Godwin's Law states "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches 1."

In other words, The rule does not make any statement about whether any particular reference or comparison to Adolf Hitler or the Nazis might be appropriate, but only asserts that the likelihood of such a reference or comparison arising increases as the discussion progresses. It is precisely because such a comparison or reference may sometimes be appropriate, Godwin has argued[4] that overuse of Nazi and Hitler comparisons should be avoided, because it robs the valid comparisons of their impact.

It's common usage states that once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress.

This all comes from Wikipedia, but I would deem it to be a true and correct page.

So therefore, by likening The Mayor to Joseph Goebbels and those in favour of the Molinaro Project the Vershoenerung Committeee, she has lost this argument for her and her followers and the Bay Beach project can go along without opposition.

Case Closed, your Honour.

Reading comprehension

Well now...

It seems that I have been insulted by the Unablogger. Ouch, I am skewer-ed.

Apparently, it seems that I cannot understand the drivel I've been reading on her website and her blog. And apparently, my cogent and intelligent arguments (when not calling her a waste of skin) are too hard for her to follow.

So here we are, to paraphrase her...

You Stupid.
You tell lies on writey thing.
You mean and me not like you.

Hopefully that's simple enough for The Editor to understand.

Oh, also...Take whatever shots at me you want. However, you've fucked with my friends and family.

It's On.
