it seems as if EVERYONE is conspiring to defeat the message inherent in the topic.


Agreed Superjoe – and on behalf of everyone (again), I want to aplogise to you for getting caught in the crossfire. Our collective attempts have been defeatist and self defeating. Please don’t despair though – things will settle down once everyone settles back down.

All it’s doing is giving him a reason to hang around (after declaring that he’s leaving…what is it, about 5 times now?). It’s just providing more and more reason for him to indulge in philosophical and verbal masturbation, taking every phrase uttered and twisting it around in a labyrinthine path of convoluted nonsense so that it can appear that he’s being “intellectual” and “clever” in an attempt to simply call someone a name. It’s clear that all he’s doing is trying to cause a stink wherever he goes: first here, then at lexx.com, doing the same thing at both places after *apologizing* for his actions here, stating a transparently false reason *why* the scene was caused, etc. It’s simply all about him. Manipulating the situation to rile people up, manipulating the words of others to make them “mean” whatever he wants them to mean…then, after annoying and/or angering a sufficiently large group of people, he can then complain about a “clique” existing and persecuting him. Basically, his current actions seem to be aimed toward one goal: to make whatever thread he posts in pertain completely to him, his own, belonging to him. Or, to use his own definitions, reducing any thread in which he posts to a level of idiocy.

So, basically, Squish, what I’m saying (while admittingly contradicting my own words, so there’s no need to point out the paradox inherent in this post) is…

Just don’t give Bonnee anything to work with, and maybe he’ll finally shut up.

I have to agree with Aleck Squish. All you’ve been doing is giving me a reason to hang around – or at least, draw attention to my continued presence. What is it – about 5 or 6 times now? – that you’ve both given me reason to ask what’s that smell, despite a desire to let the air clear of its own accord. Your collective posts recall the opening scenes of Prince Caspian in the Narnian saga, where I feel I’m being summoned from the station to respond to a cry for help. Naturally you’re re-calls have been merely crying wolf. If you want ME to shut up, then follow the example YOU presume to be leading from . Don’t continue to kick up a stink and then complain about the smell – take note that if it appears to be clinging to you two then maybe it is also emenating from both of you as well. Stop mentioning a previous dispute either directly or indirectly, resist the urge to mock me or anyone else you might mistake for me, stop calling me names, and then maybe – just maybe – you two will approximate the versions you have of yourselves.

Toll Troll – J. Ludwick

Change is really a way of life for me
They say it’s inevitable, like waves on the sea

I keep changing mostly mindlessly
On nice days it’s not a bad place to be

On cold ones, hours stretch on endlessly
I’m telling you folks, lunch and driving ain’t free

CHORUS
I’m the toll troll, I’m the toll troll
Giving you exactly what you’re due

I’m the toll troll, handing it on back to you
I’m the toll troll, handing it on back to you

We both know you don’t like slowing down
Seeing me makes it longer to get cross town

And I-pass means I’m not around

CHORUS

It’s eight tolls to nowhere you say
And I’m just one more stop along the way

Sometimes I even say, “Have a nice day” (and I mean it)

CHORUS

I’m the toll troll, I’m the toll troll
Giving you exactly what you’re due

I’m the toll troll, handing it on back to you
I’m the toll troll, handing it on back to you
