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

One or two - let's call them 'issues' - on site are really starting to get my goat and make me cross like hootoo has never made me cross before.

Restrain me before I do a Hoovooloo, someone.

B

It must be the heat, loads of people are getting annoyed about all sorts of hootoo related things...

Not just the heat, believe me.

B

Would you care to elaborate B?

Doing so would be tantamount to having the rant that I am trying hard to prevent myself having.

B

Yeah, come on B explain.

Alex.

I know, all these people who go around saying, "Oh, I'm so annoyed about such and such", and then refuse to elaborate. They really piss me off they do...

Let's just say that certain individuals are pushing their luck.

B

I'm not sure that I've been on the same threads B, so I don't really know who you mean. Which threads? then I can get an idea and you don't have to name them.

I'm a nosey b*gger.


Alex.

Well, in that case you'll just have to nose around without any help from me.

B

If I'm thinking of the same particular individual that you are, then you are not alone I also am highly pi**ed off at some of the c**p concerned, and I know that Seriph is also with this one researcher after chatting to her the other day.... But what relaly p****s me off is these moaning bastards who write jorunal entrys about things that are so-called annoyed them and then don't eloberate look into my eyes and think of a hoover you are feeling relaxed and zen-like now contemplate on today being national badger day and feel the overweling snesnse of badgerness soothing your inner badger

Yeah, I'm entitled to be sullen if I want.

B

Yea, lets all be sullen and form a rock group.... seems to be the fasion these days

The Smiths, Portishead and Cat Power have that one pretty much sewn up

yeh.... thinking about it, they'd just all think we were jumping on the band wagon.... what about being angry drunken peopole in a band? or maybe even angry drunken drug people in a band? damn, feel that one has probably been done before too....

"Let's just say that certain individuals are pushing their luck."

Is that a cuckoo clock I can hear?

Right, I don't care anymore. I usually speak my mind and I don't see why this should be any different.

1) LordWolfden is the most obnoxious, tactless, thoughtless and shallow individuals I have ever met on this site.

2) Subtle hints and then direct statements of fact have been ignored by LordHighAndMightyWolfden, and he carries on his merry way, which only makes him more offensive to me.

3) By directing this at him, I (probably unjustifiably) feel the smallest man on the planet because the guy has muscular dystrophy and types a letter at a time with a wand.

But he has p*ssed me off again today, and frankly I'm fuming.

I never thought I'd have to write this about any other hootoo researcher (and I know I can be pretty abrasive myself), but I really do not want to be on the same site as this guy.

B

Further thoughts:

Once into a cycle like this it is very difficult to get out. I will automatically assume anything that Wolfden has posted will be completely unutterably pointless, even if any thought has gone into it.

If Gnomon were to post something frivolous that I didn't find funny, I would overlook it, because he has said so many profound and interesting things. Likewise, if EV were to post something banal (and he does it a bit, let's face it ), I would overlook it because he makes me laugh on a regular basis. But because LW has already plumbed the depths of inept Netiquette, he is - in my eyes - effectively unredeemable.

He did actually make an attempt to apologise for his actions. To me. And then carried on doing exactly the same thing as before. What am I expected to think?

B

"I (probably unjustifiably) feel the smallest man on the planet because the guy has muscular dystrophy and types a letter at a time with a wand."

We're all equal on the internet. You hate who you like, no matter what goes on behind the screen!

B, you are one of the most intelligent people on the site. His Lordship isn't. I'm quite sure he doesn't realise the inanity of most of what he is saying. Just ignore it. He's taken his games away to the games place. So all we have to ignore is his occasional confusing comment in Ask.
