h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Tiggy, this is my last message before I delete my account.
You are one of the most ignorant, cocky, arrogant stupid asses I've evert seen.
I've met paperclips with a higher IQ than you, you have no right to ridicule me or anyone for that matter.
Oh and why is everyone afraid of the 'superior' Tiggy? You have no guide entries. You make up the fact that you know more physics than anyone.
So why don't you make a guide entry on the physics you know so much about? Hmm?
Let's think.
Is it:
a: The fact that you are a cocky dumbass
or
b: The fact that you would need 20 tabs with wikipedia open to write a paragraph.

In fact I'm going to give you an idea for a guide entry.
Here is the title-

Tiggy- How I became an annoying arrogant little ignorant pain in the neck.

So save your keyboard for a guide entry instead of ridiculing people who have more than you. You've been on h2g2 for 10 years, correct? Well in all those years you haven't found a single thing to do than to ridicule people who are much much much much much much cleverer than you?
You really are a sad person.
Good Day.

Hi Tiggy, Rob
Please don't fight .. unless it's done in good humour ..

When I become angry, I unsubscribe and perhaps leave the site for a couple of days .. there's many intelligent people here .. it's not worth losing your colleagues because you don't get on with one or two.

Cheers!

"this is my last message before I delete my account."

You can't delete your account.

Do you make these sort of statements on purpose, or can't you help yourself?


"You are one of the most ignorant, cocky, arrogant stupid asses I've evert seen."

You've never seen me Robb. See question above.

"I've met paperclips with a higher IQ than you, you have no right to ridicule me or anyone for that matter."

I have every right to ridicule you when you make statements that are ridiculous. You INVITE it.

"Oh and why is everyone afraid of the 'superior' Tiggy?"

Not everyone is.

However, I might suggest that since you have ascertained that I have a reputation, you might stop, just for a second, and think how I might have come by it. You might consider that one does not garner a reputation for superiority by being stupid.

"You have no guide entries."

Indeed. This individual number account has not been used by this human to create any guide entries. Has it occurred to you that this account, which has been active for less than six months, might not be the only one I've ever operated here?

"You make up the fact that you know more physics than anyone."

I never, ever, said or implied any such thing. To do so would have been very stupid, since I'm not even a physicist.

I stated with certainty that I know more physics than YOU. And then, with your help, I demonstrated that fact, repeatedly.

"So why don't you make a guide entry on the physics you know so much about? Hmm?"

Good question.

"Let's think."

So far I question your ability to do that.

"Is it:
a: The fact that you are a cocky dumbass"

How would this prevent me from writing an entry on physics? You are a cocky dumbass, and you wrote a juvenile attempt at an explanation of relativity.

"or
b: The fact that you would need 20 tabs with wikipedia open to write a paragraph."

I think this is something psychologists call "projection". You're describing yourself, rather than me.

"In fact I'm going to give you an idea for a guide entry.
Here is the title-

Tiggy- How I became an annoying arrogant little ignorant pain in the neck."

That would be a short entry. It would consist of the title, a photograph of Haley Joe Osment from "The Sixth Sense", and the caption "I see dumb people."

"So save your keyboard for a guide entry instead of ridiculing people who have more than you."

You have more than me? More of what? (I honestly severely doubt that you have more of anything than me. Oh, hang on, I've thought of something. Percentage body fat. I'd be prepared to bet folding money that your percentage body fat is a minimum of 1.5 times mine. Just a guess.)

"You've been on h2g2 for 10 years, correct? Well in all those years you haven't found a single thing to do than to ridicule people who are much much much much much much cleverer than you?"

In all those years I've met, at my estimation, less than half a dozen people who demonstrated themselves to be much cleverer than me. Bad news Robb - you're not one of them.

"You really are a sad person."

Factually incorrect. I am in fact a very happy person. I won't bore you with the list of things I have that make me that way, beyond my health and a loving partner.

h2g2 will, I suspect, not be much the poorer for your absence. Go in peace.

Wow...impressive leaving note there and totally misses the target as wel... Also, http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/F18375030?thread=7723575&latest=1

Does anyone recognise this (_!_) ?

Hi there "Tiggy", 3Dots.
Have either you had a chance to view Phil Plait's 'Don't Be A Dick' talk at TAM8?
I has occurred to me I'd likely enjoy seeing a critical evaluation of his argument, such as it is from you chaps:

http://vimeo.com/13704095

It sets off my "crock" detector.

Yes, saw that first time round. Very good stuff...

You regarded the talk as unequivocally good?

My reaction was more mixed, ambivalent.

It was good stuff in that in made one think about how one approaches woo stuff (which is not the case with ...rob...).

I didn't exactly agree with him. There always seems to be a bad reaction from observers when you call people using verifiable, facts in a very straight forward way...I have been told not to be so cruelk by persons in the past when simply giving the facts...the fact that that person then gets embarrassed shouldn't be my problem but as with the victim/Drama triangle you get vilified as the villian when they are being a total burke.

I think he did it as a bit of a devil's advocaat thing.

Apologies about the terse first response!
