The truth finally comes out.

[cleanhippie]

A jury saw it for what it was, homophobic religious bullshit, and hid it. Lets hope the ToS box was checked so MIRT can have a look.

1. That could have happened

on half a dozen of his posts in there...hopefully everyone who claims to hate that sort of thing will read and see what he's really like.

[mr blur]

2. 'Ignore' is not always your friend!

It meant that I missed this one.

[cleanhippie]

3. Because his posts are usually so outrageous and ridiculous, and are good for a laugh...

I haven't put him on ignore. This latest one, though, takes the cake. Unbelievable.

[AlbertCat]

32. Because his posts are usually so outrageous and ridiculous, and are good for a laugh...

So much for "other ways of knowing"....

Of course with not so humble bum, it was more like "other ways of being a brick wall.... a self righteous brick wall.

[cleanhippie]

33. other ways of being a brick wall.... a self righteous brick wall.

You got THAT right!


I might have replaced the B with P, though. And omitted wall.

4. It would be a true joy to get rid of those two loving Christians on the same day. n/t

5. Happy Dance Time!!!!

6. If I prayed, I might think my prayers had been answered.

[uriel1972]

7. Oh my lack of God

They caught up with two today.

[Goblinmonger]

8. The other is out, too

19. FUCK YEAH! humblebum was a real piece of work. n/t

[mr blur]

9. I make it three this week.

[cleanhippie]

11. Three?

Who am I missing?

[mr blur]

12. tama

Noted mixer of word salad.

[cleanhippie]

13. No shit!

Wow, I rarely saw him post elsewhere, and never the stuff on his PPR message. Wow.

What a day!

[dmallind]

21. Actually of the 3 Tama was by far the most enjoyable to read IMO

Utterly wooed-out beyond all hope of recovery of course but at least he (assumption on my part - gender unknown AFAIK) actually has a grasp of what it was he was cavalierly dismissing in the first place. You can't really criticize an ESL writer for their minor errors of syntax when they are capable of writing such insightful and thought-provoking stuff, however fanciful. How long would it take any of us to do the same in Finnish, IIRC. Swedish? Either one! Reminded me of a modern-day Charles Fort in a way. I have much higher regard for flights of fancy than for fundamentalism, however frequently frustrating (he said, accidentally alliteratively).

So what caused the pizza there?

[cleanhippie]

22. Agreed. I never saw any of the stuff that got him PPR'd. That was a surprise.

I mostly ignored him, as he was just too far out in left field for me to deal with, but he was interesting. Weird.

[trotsky]

23. It was a quick flameout related to the drone issue.

He said some pretty vile stuff. If you go to his profile and read the PPR notes from admin it's listed in there.

[onager]

25. Tama was Finnish, and a woman, I'm pretty sure.

Like you said, when she first showed up I was willing to cut her some slack because of the language issue.

But as I read more of her stuff, I was pretty sure it wouldn't make sense in Finnish either. Or English. Or Urdu. Or Martian...

And if you're going to be wooed-out, dammit, at least be entertaining.

At least as entertaining as One Of The Greatest Movies Ever Made, Iron Sky. Which postulated not only Nazis colonizing the dark side of the moon, but invading Earth with Space Zeppelins! (Also a U.S. President with a remarkable resemblance to a certain Alaskan grifter...right down to the stuffed polar bear in the Oval Office.)

[skepticscott]

26. Well, tama was pretty good

at calling people jerks and telling them to go fuck themselves in English. And sorry, but he was disgustingly disingenuous. He'd play the quantum woowoo and postmodernist crap for all they were worth when he wanted to be a shit-stirrer, but when concrete evidence and definitions suited him, he'd talk out of the other side of his face just that quick.

On edit..or she...not that it changes much.

[skepticscott]

14. The hits just keep on coming!

Didn't see what precipitated his departure, but these were his final words:

Theory of evolution is not objective theory. It's participatory ethical theory.

How fitting he should go out like that...

[LAGC]

15. That poster's open contempt for science (in all forms) was duly noted.

"Other ways of knowing" indeed...

[uriel1972]

17. I got to admit I'm suprised anyone could understand what they were

writing enough to find anything.

[trotsky]

18. Well that makes me 2 for 3.

I had bum and tama on ignore. LARED I didn't because he was just too much fun to humiliate.

[mr blur]

20. And now the Pope's resigning!

OK, which of you backed Ratzo into a corner?

[uriel1972]

24. What a happy day for A&A nt

[Taverner]

31. Humblebum kept using the fundie vocabulary

Which to me means...

[Warpy]

10. Dumblebum has left the building.

If I had any alcohol in the house, I'd drink to that decision and suffer the migraine gladly, some sort of celebration should mark that particular pizza delivery.

He was only here to proselytize the heathen Democrats. I'm glad somebody finally caught on to that.

[dimbear]

16. The rage was strong in those two. Damn. At least we have some fun over there. n/t

[2ndAmForComputers]

27. They felt that.

They really, really felt that.

[Rob H.]

28. Good.

Not that I feel that sorry for them, though, given that there are a few recent members who are at least as rabidly anti-atheist as humblebum and LARED ever were--I'm sure they'll step in and fill those particular shoes in no time. (And let's face it, if the believers over there didn't call out humblebum and LARED for their obvious and continuing anti-atheist bigotry, it isn't as if any new atheist-haters will be in any danger of it, either.)

[rexcat]

29. Truly a good weekend...

The two were obnoxious. The third was unintelligible and obnoxious!

[Taverner]

30. Always have been skeptical of that one...
