Not quite. One does get to discern the ratio of "good" to ego-driven,
condescending bull****. If there's more bull**** than "good" the choice
to walk is more than valid. Yes, **** does produce roses....but only if
you're willing to put up with the stink.

Discernment. Deciding how deep you're willing to stand in the crap for
a few lousy roses....ankle deep? Knee deep? Or, "screw the roses"?

Finn doesnt find the roses here, in number or quality, to be worth the
****. Defending the **** doesnt stop it from being ****. "Oh, but LOOK,
how FINE the ROSES!" doesnt hide the stench.

Discernment. The ****-to-roses ratio is askew in here. Fortunately,
there's plenty of dung beetles who dont mind. Lot's of ****-happy dung
beetles, two or three courageously struggling roses and knee deep
bull****.

Discernment.....a quality lacking in the average dung beetle. Listen
up: Newcomers being met with smarmy holier-than-thou, insulting
bull**** from der Konehead is not "amusing", Dr.Ernie DungBeetle et al.
It's ****ing unacceptable in a place intended to offer "support". What a
joke.

Finn figured that out right quick.

"Usenet is an Anarchy.
He "belongs" here as much as any of us.


I, for one, would not have it any other way! "

It's only anarchy because there are rude and vulgar people who misuse
it. The don't contribute to the discussion, they only use it to get
their sick jollies insulting and annoying others. I've seen newsgroups
disappear from jerks like this. The purpose of this newgroup is for
discussion support about LC, not to insult people with every post. And
encouraging jerks by telling them they do belong here as much as anyone
else just makes it worse. Apparently you confuse free speech with
obnoxious and vulgar behavior.

"So let's not make it worse by pretending
that this person belongs here or
contributes anything other than insults.
And why anyone would encourage his behavior, is beyond me."~ Trader 4

Hmmmm. Now, there's some Discernment.

I think it breaks down like this, Trader: der Konehead is the Chief Dung
Beetle. The weaker, lesser dung beetles suck up, excuse and defend him
because that keeps him off their backs, in much the same way POW's come
to admire their captors and even to enjoy the torture. "Follow the
Leader Even if He's an Asshole" is typical of lesser dung beetles. Just
look what one swaggering failure of an art student did for Germany.

OM is not a dung beetle at all, but a spiritually advanced Soul who
truly forgives unacceptable behavior.

Then, there are the non-dung beetles who have varying degrees of
tolerance for bull**** and either stick around or split, depending on
their BSTL.

Finn had a very low Bull**** Tolerance Level and split. I have a pretty
low BSTL, too and am sort of standing on the sidelines, arms crossed,
watching the dung beetles and counting roses, deciding.

But, I do recognise a dung heap when I see one.

Why take JC this seriously? Cmon. He has a schtick. That's it.

"Why take JC this seriously? Cmon. He has a schtick. That's it. "

Most of the people who have been around a while realize what he is.
But how about the newbies that show up and ask a question of two and
get blasted with vulgarity and abuse? How many of them who we would
like to have in the group just give up and go away? That is what kills
groups and why I don't think this behavior is funny, cute or should be
encouraged. If anything, we should all start complaining to his ISP
about his abuse of the newsgroups.

Quoting Lass Chance:
Finn figured that out right quick.

You don't even know what you're typing about as per usual.

flyinfinn made all of twelve posts to the group, and ten of those
posts contained death threats.

"Why take JC this seriously? Cmon. He has a schtick."~dr. ernie

I dont take him seriously, at all. However, even at 'not at all", he's
still a RCH above you, you fence-sitting mealy-mouthed junior dung
beetle suck-up.

any more questions, doc?

IOW, you are taking an attitude because some people here had the
temerity to slam your misinformation for what it was. You expected to be
able to waltz in here and post whatever came to your mind without any
repercussions. Too bad.
