So a few questions

[JimmyJohns]

If you think it's wrong for people to spend so much time watching sports, why is it not wrong to spend so much time getting angry over the amount of time people watch sports?

Why does Fatman, a person without a job, a leach on the economy, have a signature that claims that jocks are retarded and below him, and then makes fun of them for having an actual job?

Oh no! Not another one!!!

Hey! I suppose that you don't object to some fucking worthless drooling moronic slope-headed, slack-jawed, mouth-breathing, stooped-shouldered, knuckle-dragging baboon with shit-for-brains getting paid millions of dollars every year just for chasing a ball.

But, a physics or astronomy professor only gets paid $80,000 to $120,000 dollars per year!

And I'll be damned if I'm going to bag groceries, or mop up floors, or scrub toilets for ingrates like you!

No, Instead, I would prefer to make fuck-tards like you drink mop water, or dunk your head in a toilet, and slam the lid, and jump on it to break your fucking neck, or better yet, tie your hands behind your back, and put a plastic grocery bag over your head and tie it off real tight so you can't breath, and then I would laugh my ass off while watching you slowly suffocate and DIE!!!

FUCK OFF!!!

Thanks for being civil, JimmyJohns. (How refreshing! You're a new member who's not a spammer. I was bored with encountering nothing but spammers. I tell you, spammer after spammer after spammer after spammer, I get sick and tired of it! ) I have no problem with sincere critics of this website, as long as they don't troll and abuse all the members of this forum (few though they may be) without daring to post again.

This may surprise you: You will find a diversity of opinion in this forum. Contrary to any initial impression you may have, we don't all follow a party line. I can't speak for every member, but I certainly have no problem with people watching games or athletic events as a form of entertainment (within reason). Everyone has his own preference. There's no debating such. And each of us has his own reason for supporting this website.

Re the member of this forum who seems to attract so much attention: Fat Man lives on disability. As I understand, he has severe arthritis in both of his knees and ankles. He hasn't been able to drive a car for many years, and depends upon the sort of scooter elderly people use to get around. More significantly, he has also had problems with mental illness for a considerably longer time resulting from severe trauma he experienced as he was growing up. Not that I agree with all of his attitudes, but I'd hate to think where I'd be if I had suffered the way he did. Despite his bitterness, he's a threat to no one, and actually is potentially kinder at heart than his rants would lead people to believe. As far as your observation that Fat Man is a leech in the economy, I'm afraid there are "bigger fish to fry," as far as the bad guys of finance and government spending are concerned. Despite his username, Fat Man is a very small "fish," indeed. But that's just my two cents' worth.

Earl's reaction after reading Fat Man's post: Oh, well, here we go again!

*Psssstt!* (That's supposed to be a well-known sound, not a word, produced by the human mouth.) Hey, Fat Man ...

[Fat Man]

Thanks for being civil, JimmyJohns.

Well, he has not been civil with me! First thing he does is to call me a leech!

The biggest leeches are the professional jocks and the sports organizations themselves. Sports in our schools is the cause of our declining quality of education here in the USA.

And residential areas have been bulldozed to make room for sports arenas.

They're planning on building a huge sports arena in the down town area of El Paso, and the Civic Center, and possibly even the Science Museum might be removed to make room for it.

So, athletes and sports fans are the biggest leeches!

They all need to have a stake driven through their hearts!

*Psssstt!* (That's supposed to be a well-known sound, not a word, produced by the human mouth.) Hey, Fat Man ...

Well, I'm not in the mood to pass out flowers and sit down to sing Kumbaya with the enemy!

I can't play the guitar anymore after my ex-room-mate became paranoid, delusional, and violent after his second stroke, and fractured my left wrist with his machete!

And I happen to be left-handed, and I can't even finish working on anymore oil paintings because my left hand is all crippled up.

Yeah! His doctor was stupid enough to prescribe Viagra to someone who had high blood pressure and already had one stroke. I think the Viagra might have been the cause of triggering off his second stroke. Then back in 2005 he died after his third and final stroke! He probably died with an erection!

So, as far as I'm concerned, JimmyJohns can just go hit the Ho Chi Minh Trail in his beat up ol' clunker with three wheels and a drag-stick and two flat tires and get the fuck outta here!!!

Well, now that you've mentioned it, I must admit you're right. Go get 'em, tiger! (That means, according to the cherished Forum Rules, you have the right to respond in kind.)

Let's see what tomorrow shall bring (if anything) ...

I'm sorry, what exactly do you do that serves a purpose?

Athletes entertain millions of people, who willingly pay money to see them perform. That's free market economy.

I agree with this statement. Huh? Is anyone surprised that I would? Is there some script I'm supposed to follow? Oh, I get it. Since I'm a moderator (well, the only currently active moderator of this forum, whose activity at this website has been the lowest I've ever seen), I'm supposed to disagree with this statement; and the reason why is because those who support this website are all the same.

I'm sorry, what exactly do you do that serves a purpose?

Why, his purpose is to provide you with entertainment, JimmyJohns! I mean, all the latest controversies seem to revolve around him. This website should be renamed FatMan.org. The problem is that these Fat Man exchanges don't have enough of that "soap opera" quality about them to be entertaining for very long.


(Why am I even writing this? I suspect JimmyJohns won't post anymore, especially if Fat Man doesn't respond. Oh, well, at least his username was cute.)

[Fat Man]

I'm sorry, what exactly do you do that serves a purpose?

Well, I use to do oil paintings, but now, I can't anymore, because my left wrist was fractured, and my left hand is crippled up, and there is also extensive nerve damage,

So, I can't do oil paintings anymore and I can't play the guitar anymore.

Hey! You would love my brother!

He's a douche bag just like you! The two of you would get along really great!

When he was in high school, he was in the marching band. He played the trumpet and he was damn good! I'll give him that.

Our mother worked her butt off for him, making sure his marching uniform would fit just right, and making all kids of preparations. Our family invested a lot of money in him.

Well, I was out of school at the time. I wanted to build a telescope, and 8 inch Newtonian reflector telescope, so I had ordered a kit from the Edmund Scientific Co.

OK, it meant having to keep the bedroom perfectly clean, and making it dust proof since I was going to be grinding and polishing an optical surface.

My brother and I shared the same bedroom.

Anyway, we use to get into arguments, and he would hang his dirty jacket on the curtain rod.

OK, I didn't know about this at the time, but many years later, my dear sweet brother admitted to me, that he tried to steal a shot gun from a neighbor and come after me with it, because he felt that my wanting to build a telescope was disruptive of our family.

Yeah! And our mother worked her butt off for him!

No, I guess instead of trying to build a telescope, I should have been out in the yard bouncing a basketball. Right???

You and my brother can be butt-buddies and suck each others cocks!

But in the meantime . . . . .

Go eat shit and die!

[Earl]

I understand your anger, Fat Man; but for now, let's try to keep a more civil tone while there's still hope for a decent dialogue.

All hope of a decent dialogue between me and JimmyJohns went down the first time he posted here and called me a leech!

Yeah! Hope is laying down there in the bottom of the sea, next to the Titanic!

Which of course, where I wish JimmyJohns could be, sleeping with the fishes!

I don't believe a word of this. And if you can't even do a few strokes of a brush with your hands how are you holding those plates and moving a telescope and setting it up? How are you able to type this all out?

I believe you are either a troll, or making a HUGE number of excuses for yourself.

I can't bend my left wrist at all, and I have very little feeling in my fingers. I have tried, but the brush keeps slipping out of my hand.

Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night with pains in my left wrist, and I eve have nightmares and flashback of the machete attack.

You don't know what it's like to have been attacked with a machete!

Maybe someone should chop off your pecker so you can't fuck little boys anymore!

[Brigan]

Maybe someone should chop off your pecker so you can't fuck little boys anymore!

Why the fuck must you always GO TOWARDS THE DAMN PEDOPHILIA.

See how you derail yourself?.

OK, I don't know if he fucks little boys or not! At least I hope he doesn't!

Maybe his speed is the goat in the back yard behind his single-axle trailer home!

But nonetheless!

I still hope someone chops off his pecker!
