That's backwards. Escaping to the forest is hardly selflessness.

It's admittedly complete selfishness. Just like some use music, mind-altering substances, or food to escape from reality, especially when they could, or even should, take some positive action to improve the crumbling world around us. Sad but true, and as useless as words on a forum with no actions.

a case of the make-it-up-as-we-go-alongsies....

You know what, dude?

It doesn't really matter.

well...actually it does, you're a raging hypocrit

playing the 'my son is epileptic, you cant see out of your selfish world' card was waaaaay too rich to ignore.

limb by limb.

Hypocrisy would mean that I, too, am not selfish. I admittedly am, and make no bones about it.

And to me, it doesn't really matter. It's just words from one opinionated asshole to another.

And it's spelled 'hypocrite'...

right, so we're going round and round now ....at first it was some people cant see out of their own selfish worlds, now its words from one opinionated asshole to another....

I guess thats some sort of concession, unfortunate that it had to be dragged out of you

LOFA wrote: Alright. that makes sense. From my perspective, having me the cat, I wuld have to say that the post was about 1 part troll to 9 parts observation. The fact that his arguement does not hold together (what with reusing parts one already has and what not, which I think is more of an oversight) does not mean that imo that he's trolling. I for one am I mac owner that loves to hear this sort of stuff before I purchase my new laptop in January's round of updates.

What? like his second post in this thread?

p.s. try spanking it a little less and give it some time to breathe, maybe it's scared and just hiding.....

Whatever LOFA? You're not thinking very clearly on this one at all. Your friend is trolling big time. Doesn't matter what the intentions were if the result is just angry geeks talking smack to each other on the internet. Off to work.

Do I know you? I know pretty much every single person who has ever lived in Seattle - seriously and if I don't or didn't - fear not, we'll meet and you'll be forced to kick it with me

err_eur wrote: MY WHOLE POINT IN STARTING THE THREAD FOR ALL OF THE MORONS WHO TALK SHIT BUT DIDN'T READ THE ORIGINAL POST IS THAT I THINK MACS ARE OVERPRICED FASHION ACCESSORIES IN 9 out of 10 cases and the SAME END IN USING A COMPUTER CAN BE ACHEIVED MORE EFFECTIVELY, PRACTICALLY, AND CHEAPLY BY BUILDING YOUR OWN MACHINE.

Then why didn't you just say that, just like that - it's all about first impressions and if you E-Yell at people it's going to naturally turn people off

err_eur wrote: IT IS MY OPINION, you don't have to agree with it, I don't have to agree with yours. ALL the cheap RIPS and TAUNTS aside, we are grown-ups and can handle them, I think my original post could be helpful to someone.

You kind of set yourself up for all that - with the big letters and epileptic signature...obviously you're free to express your creative side with your writings and signature but seriously...it's a little much for the typical lay person around here

express yourself with some beats or something...know what I mean

peace

Bounce: People like you are the reason that it's always been easy to rock out on reading comprehension tests. I never really understood how the curve ran quite so well as I do now, you trained monkey.

machinesworking:
Dude, the guy is from what I can tell pretty decent. He gets excited but only because he is REALLY energetic and creative. If people can't handle someone expressing themselves (ie: sig's, opinions, and nifty fonts)... well what then, huh? I have stated before that I value your opinion, and I mean it, but c'mon- were all just a bunch of dudes hanging out on a forum. Some of us type their ideas and others post pictures that are inappropriate and could get me heat at work.

Adonis: You are the man.

Err- I can't believe the heat your getting for this. There have been some serious assholes on this board that have received a ton of shit and you simply brought up a relevant topic. I can't seem to figure it out. Who cares.
