PLEASE DO COMMENT BELOW AFTER READING OP
Hello TeamLiquid. As some of you undoubtably know, I am at an overnight camp in Texas.

Long story short, there's an arrogant jerk here who thinks that he is the shit at public speaking and is in fact a mumbler who is a total ass.

This is his facebook page with names edited out:
[image loading]
In addition, his defining characteristic is that he always asks questions during lectures that tend to be about highly obscure topics that he has personal knowledge of, and doesn't understand that one question, one answer means just that.

So...I'm going to prank him.

His questions take this format"Concerning_____(advanced concept, with a description lasting aabout thrity seconds), how would you describe_____(subpoint within subject)", or anything similar. It always starts with "Concerning", that's the important bit.

So, can you guys make up a bunch of questions like this?

Reqs-no content containing "bad" language.
-no threats

Once I have enough, me and bunch of other guys are going to write these out and tape them over the walls of his room.

Thanks!

ROFL, the facebook status on the left.

1. How do you format a facebook status this badly

2. Soo pretentious, makes my eyes hurt reading it.

I would do far worse than prank him, personally, but I suppose life isn't always fair.

I suppose I would write something about hamsters, though this may be somewhat too absurd.

Please write something.

First of all, this guy is an idiot, any psychologist will tell you that Fruedian Psych is a bunch of shit created by a coke head. Yes it has SOME merit when it comes to the idea of spreading psych and understanding the subconscious but most of it pure shit, which is exactly what he posted there -_-

For your answer,

Concerning Unlaiden Swallows, how would you describe their airspeed?

EDIT: just remembered something golden, Nony's thread

Concering decision making, how much more pretentious do you have to be for me to make FB statuses for you?

About anything?!?

Concerning gullibility of the undecided how would you describe the impact of 'Bump 'n' Grind' by R.Kelly on teen pregnancy?

I'll think of more in a bit and edit them in.
Edit:
Concerning My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic's secondary-main characters (Apple Bloom, Sweetie Bell and Scootaloo) how would you describe Rainbow Dash not having a sister yet the secondary-main character for the Pegasi Scootaloo, a sister-less filly Pegasus with the same aptitude of Rainbow Dash have an effect on which pet you would choose? (Applejack has a dog as a pet, and Rarity has a cat as a pet, while Rainbow Dash has a turtle)

Why don't you just ask him how many people remotely care about what he's saying or if his opinion really plays any actual role beyond just exerting his frustration because he pretentiously acts like he hails from another plane of existence and intelligence (but in reality, is compensating for other areas he's very likely insecure about). Why rant about religion and "untangle it" with some pseudo-philosophical/psychological assessment he mashed together from too many comic strips of The New Yorker and an episode of Daria he picked up on some obscure website.

Really you only need 10 of these (make them in marker). the rest he'll rip up and throw away w/o reading.

Regarding gravity, how strong is the Earth's pull to keep your ego from escaping the atmosphere. (wow, that's not funny at all; just mean. probably not the material for a "prank")

Concerning the fact that twitter symbols do not work on facebook, why do you hashtag shit on facebook in your statuses?

I feel like I could do better but OSL prelims are right now and my F5 key is waiting.

LOL i used to teach at a debate workshop in texas. here's what id ask (using your template):

Concerning the ontological status of emergent phenomena in the neo-Kantian materialism of Deleuze, specifically the issue of the machinic phylum as the abstract phase space of the assemblage (which is virtual rather than actual but nonetheless real, as described by DeLanda), how would you describe the process of stratification as it relates to the the morphogenetic capacity of the cosmos to yield complex systems?

PS this question actually does make some sense if you know deleuze but i assume most high school speech students haven't quite cracked mille plateaux yet ^^

I'd like to shove sandpaper down his throat.

Concerning hash tags, how would you describe their current use on facebook when in fact it is a tool used for twitter?

I hate hash tags on FB.

This fellow being a moron is quite evident -- there is no need to highlight this, he has done it himself.

In fact, he's already saved you the trouble of broadcasting it all over facebook.

Isn't that enough?

I honestly think this is a childish thing to do. Why? Why? Why?

Leave him ignorant, if you want the harshest punishment dealt to him.

having taught exactly this kind of student before (debate kids can be a...special breed) i have actually found that a little bit of gentle shaming can be good all around. obviously you dont want to humiliate the guy with stupid shit, but if you show him that there are 10000 similar questions that he *hasn't* thought about, it can be both humbling and an incentive for him to work harder to learn about those things. of course, asking dumb stuff like 'why do you use hashtags on facebook' doesnt quite accomplish this. also, its way more effective if peers do this (showing that they too have specialized knowledge which can yield some fancy questions) because it tends to be resented when it comes from an authority figure.
