No slaps from here LR . I've just read a whole page of posts without the attention slipping .

Spontaneity is what makes life worth living.

Evensong managed to push your button with a provocative smiley, and you've come down to Hell for a 'bile dump'.
I go along with PeteC , it did merit the pop-corn dish . (Just a pity ES didn't show-up)

Enjoy the rest of your day Long Ranger.

Re Evensong:

From what I saw, she was comparing Fr. G's posts to those of his previous incarnations on the Ship. He used to have a habit of posting what seemed like an interesting OP, only to inexorably lead it to "Orthodoxy is right". He did it so often that people could catch a whiff of it very early in the thread. And his...overly forceful and energetic and angry posting style at the time made it all the worse.

Fr. G has changed quite a bit for the better [Overused] , IMHO--but I caught a whiff of his old posting trick, too.

Second of all, I can pretty much guess that evensong has no idea who Father G. is, given that he stopped posting (for the most part)long before she ever showed up.

I wondered about this while I was posting, but didn't have time to check the origin date on her profile. However, as I said, I was picking up the same whiff from Fr. G's posts. Much less combative [Cool] , but hints of his old tricks.

FWIW.

And a poster can read boards for years before they show up. So evensong's knowledge of Fr.G's style of working could easily pre-date her date of registration.

I certainly have no brief for Evensong and her light-weight, slogan style of posting, but I probably wouldn't visit a thread that called me a bitch in its very title, either.

This thread title is witless and vulgar. The opening post even more so.

Ah yes, but it also has "Evensong" in the title, so it should be irresistable to the little bitch.

True.

And y'all are right, SCat's invocation of gang-bang imagery makes me yank the Asshole Trophy out of ES's hands and place it in his. Ye Gods. Gwai's right, could you pick anything more stereotypically misogynistic?

The irony is lovely. We have generally been guaranteed to be able to twit Evensong about making any Hell call "all about her". Now once again she has her own call; it is all about her and yet she can just sit back with a Mona Lisa smile and let us do all the work. If she manages to not make an appearance through the life of this thread, kudos to her! It's performance art using negative space. [Cool]

<serious hat on>

I am just being hellish. I have had enough spats with Evensong that I don't think she really bothers with anything I say anymore, and I know she is quite capable of sticking up for herself.

Hell has really come down in the world if I have to make clarifications of being mindlessly hellish. So if you have any more problems, you can just take your heads out of your own lower intestines, and fuck the fuck off.

I don't think any clarification is necessary, Schroedinger's Cat. And feel free to go right on being "mindlessly hellish." Just be prepared to field accusations of being an sexist asshole if you're going to continue in the same vein. There are all sorts of reasons to add Evensong's posts to your "scroll past" list, but the fact that she's female isn't one of them.

The idea of hell is to express what you actually think - possibly with hyperbole. The social function being to avoid other areas being drowned in inter-poster bile.

But being egregiously sexist and then responding when called on it that "I am just being hellish" is really no better than using the word "nigger" and then responding to accusations of racism with the same justification.

There's offensive, and there's offensive giving a window onto your uncensored views. If its an act you are putting on to be hell-worthy, without the nous to realise the implications of what you are posting - then don't.

Additional note on hyperbole - if you say you are going to bugger someone with a studded silver-plated fish fork it is likely people will not take your intent very seriously. The more plausible an insult the more seriously it is likely to be taken.

Seems to me that there is all the difference in the world between telling someone to fuck off and saying that you want the chance to give someone a good fuck.

Here is a serious hat: you are a fucking little sexist weasel.

There's offensive, and there's offensive giving a window onto your uncensored views. If its an act you are putting on to be hell-worthy, without the nous to realise the implications of what you are posting - then don't.

Twelve year olds can be dangerous in terms of unfeelingness, self centredness, lack of any forms of self control, and tendency to fill their pants with their brains, and then squish them by sitting on them.

I also never suggested that anyone should be gang raped.

And I only used the word "bitch" because it was in the fucking title.

I did make a suggestion that Evensong is so uptight that she might need be not getting enough. If you wanted to interpret that in other ways, that is your problem, not mine.

The fact that Evensong is female is not the point. The only gender-relevant comment was "bitch" which was in the fucking title.

And actually, I don't hold any particular negative feelings towards Evensong. I just find that her behaviour on the ship is often asking for trouble. But I only poke fun at her because she can take it.

Hell is a good place for me to let off steam. that is why I come here.

I invited you to correct a typo that suggested Evensong come here so "we might eventually have a proper chance to give Evensong a good fuck". You refused.

Explain to me how that is not a suggestion to gang rape.

You should ask yourself why you didn't refer to the exact wording of your post in your defence of it.

If she manages to not make an appearance through the life of this thread, kudos to her! It's performance art using negative space. [Cool]

I'm so proud of Evensong. [Yipee]

That is the bit that is sexist, (suggesting someone being gang-raped is in incredibly poor taste regardless of gender), it speaks to a history of the patriarchal explanation and control of female sexuality.

The phrase tends to get used of both sexes. Much more sexist are comments relating to PMT or men who compensate for their inadequacies by driving large cars.
