So, despite it's appalling lack of actually funny content, I am a longtime subscriber to the '[sfw] random pics that make you laugh' thread... (I know, I know... it's an addiction I cannot break. If I don't check it, I can't sleep for the irrational belief that someone might actually post something that would make me chuckle ever so slightly.) Although of course as everyone knows the funniest pic thread on TL is the 'unimpressed flash meme' thread... The thing that really annoys me in the 'random pics' thread is when people post without a pic. There's a mod note, don't post without a pic, but people do, so I love to report them for their foolishness. So, I check my subscribed threads and I see someone has posted in the 'random pics' thread. It's not funny. In fact, it's just a quote of a pic posted earlier with something like posted. Thanks for your contribution. Reported. Return to thread, scroll up. The next guy up has also failed to post a pic of his own, but is arguing about terran's ability to use ebays as sight blockers. Report. Return to thread. What? Another? Report! Oh wait... this is the 'unimpressed flash meme' thread... oops... What do I do now? Well I report a fourth post with an apology, duh! + Show Spoiler + I'm now looking around for a check that i'm posting this in the right thread! And that right there is why I dread getting the report button. I know I'll want to use it because some people need to be reported (especially in the sfw pics thread, although they should also be reported for having no sense of humour...) and I drink while I TL a little too frequently. I find myself in the wrong thread all the time and I've managed to not post in it but I think I might report it. I love that our mods are a part of the community enough to find your mistake funny instead of obnoxious. | ||

(Ok, I have stopped with this since my last ban.) | ||

I would probably spend an hour deciding whether or not the person that I am reporting deserves to be banned or not, only to refresh the page and see that they have already been banned. PS I'm going to win our bet  | ||

HamerD laying down the pseudohistorical knowledge about the Federated Republic Democracy of Ancient Greece. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=69698 He edited out much of what he wrote in the face of being wholly factually wrong but fortunately some of it survived in quotes. It can pretty much be summed up by this being part of his argument On April 18 2008 09:38 HamerD wrote:So I don't have evidential backup, well that's never stopped me before | ||

The fact that you even used that word just...well...I have lost even more respect for you. Seriously, you want reasons? This is just for you jibba, cos both mischy and I agree you are an arrogant cunt. I would really prefer that people other than jibba don't read this, but I want to keep any argument we have public because I don't want to have to repeat myself to any douches who are like you. So be it if I'm subjected to ridicule. I know most people who would choose to insult me have worse lives than I, and accept if they are so dissatisfied with themselves that they feel the need to take it out on me: + Show Spoiler + 1. I'm far more talented than you'll ever be at lots of things (I have no proof but I really, deeply expect so) 2. I'm far more funny than you'll ever be (around people who aren't stupid, whooping american seals at least). I am not entirely in tune with TL humour because it is far below the usual sort of humour of my friends, and it's hard to stoop 3. I'm attractive 4. I'm definitely more intelligent, philosophical, wise, well-read, charming and intellectual than you 5. I'm an exciting, enthusiastic person; with a lot of time for any charitable cause. I'm a passionate and emotional philanthrope. 6. I'm an elitist, and refuse to accept anything but the best 7. I have an incredibly eclectic range of things I enjoy, which is stimulating for people around me. I am always busy. From sports/ gym, to philosophy and politics, to gaming, to music, to academia and esoteric exploration; I do a lot of things which means I have a lot of interesting things to talk about. 8. I take life seriously...I have a lot of emotion and passion. I care about things, and I'm very protective and loyal of and to my friends. There really are many more reasons why michelle likes me, and I can say that with total confidence in her agreeing with what I've put. If I had to take a WILD shot in the dark jibba, I'd say you are either an air sign or an aries. Aries because they are pugnacious cunts, or an air sign because they always fail @ opening their minds. You are like my ex...oh shit I just checked yes you are a libra. Fucking typical haha! Man...you will never get anything more than the most basic bread and butter facts. Sorry, but you don't know what it's like to dream. You are another typical cynical air sign. You'll never be able to prove me wrong because you'll just respond with hostility. I really pity you, that you cannot see any further than the end of your nose. Now when you do respond to this post, know that I won't respond in kind. Like I say, I'll busy myself with ONE direct flame. This isn't even a rude one, just a general negative assessment of your being. I don't want to discuss with you any further anything other than ron paul in this blog. Don't quote me on this because it was all a long time ago but if I recall correctly the Mischy that agreed with him was a fictional alter ego online girlfriend. Interacting with HamerD is like being slapped around the head by the Dunning-Kruger effect over and over. | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=74529 In this topic he talks down to people who know more about the subject (which for him means anyone) for a few pages and then suddenly comes to the following realisation. On July 04 2008 10:46 HamerD wrote: Ok. I went and did some research and it turns out that um...I pretty much disagree with my previous statement. I really should research this sort of shit before I get involved. In all honesty, Jibba, you assumed I knew more than I did And yet despite this happening every time he voices an opinion on anything (he's actually wrong more often than if you knew absolutely nothing and just picked viewpoints at random, he's not only a moron, he's unlucky too) he continues to talk down to his intellectual betters while preaching whatever pseudoscience is allowing him to think he's better than us all today. This topic is an example of the glory that is HamerD. In the others he simply makes an idiot out of himself by not knowing anything about his subject and still trying to argue it, in this one he opens by saying "I think this and I think the only reason everyone else doesn't agree is because they're not smart enough" and then demonstrates and admits that he knows absolutely nothing about the subject and his opinion was wrong. He does these amazing mental gymnastics where he can continue to believe that he knows more than everyone around him and that he's way smarter while at the same time recognising that he doesn't know anything about anything. From a pyschological point of view, truly remarkable, as a forum mod, get out. | ||

 Anyway what's funny about his post on Astrology is that he even gets the facts about Astrology wrong. Lol @ "Astrology isn't like religious belief". Well, I guess the billion or so Hindus for whom Astrology is part of their religion don't count. + Show Spoiler + Though true devotees of Astrology often make a clear delineation between "western" and "eastern" astrology, it's pretty clear he did zero actual research on it Also lol @ the random bar chart. He claims to be measuring correlation. But if I recall properly, correlation is measured by an 'r' value between 0 and 1. His bar chart goes between 0 and 14, so wtf is he measuring lol. Real proponents of Astrology must be just face palming. | ||
