What is Usenet for?

There is no humor in being a dork.

That said, the morons spewing their utter filth here is what remains
if everyone behaves like a dork but those morons do define how free
one should feel in their expression, it's not all bad.

For you they are just empty messages, this nihilism is entirely yours
of course. But those who whine the most are also most receptive to it.

I've kinda had it with this global electronic surveillance slave labor
camp where entertainment is the prime directive. If all live would be
about was looking for the next cheap thrill you might as well use a
needle?

At last, some grist for my mill!

A new guest should be treated like a new guest.

Many newbies come to a newsgroup acting like they own the place instead of
being modest and humble as becomes them.

There is no humor in being a dork.

You have me confused with Mr. Tom Sherman of ARBR. He is the dorkiest dork I
know.

That said, the morons spewing their utter filth here is what remains
if everyone behaves like a dork but those morons do define how free
one should feel in their expression, it's not all bad.

Please rewrite the above as it is most confusing.

For you they are just empty messages, this nihilism is entirely yours
of course. But those who whine the most are also most receptive to it.

More rewriting is required here also.

I recommend a course of study in English composition. Maybe if you could
write better, you could also think better.

Don't feed the troll. He is, as he has ably demonstrated, lacking in humour,
wit, intelligence and grace. He adds nothing to the sum of human knowledge.
Don't pander to his sad little ego by responding to him. If we all ignore
him, he'll go away (and as 95% of us have killfiled him already, even if he
doesn't go away no-one will know).

Take it a step further, Simon and don't repost his drivel for the

stumble upon.

Why don't the two of you **** one another and be done with it? The last
thing these honorable cycling newsgroups need is yet another admission of
defeat by an English moron and an American idiot. In the meantime, the
caravan moves on and the dogs bark in the night.

I'm sure it they were to watched the Mike V. / Edward D. stolen sex
tape, they understand exactly what you meant.

Little Jimmy being nasty as only he knows how. How pathetic!

Those who have nothing better to do than to advise one another about who to
kill-file are beneath contempt. **** 'em!

First of all, I find your order to ignore Edward kind of uncivilized.
The way in which you ignore people is not admirable nor do I enjoy
being informed about it. Could you please not reply to my postings
without addressing their subjects. I do not require your behavioral
modifications nor do I listen to your orders.

Where did you get this idea?

I was explaining how a new guest should be treated like a guest and I
was explaining how there is no humor in being a dork. Your reply does
not remotely address my topic. I bother to explain this because it
appears to be necessary. Your approach is .... well it sucks Simon.

Is this how you introduce yourself? Though the expression of hate?
And I should adopt this? This while you ignore what I write? What
hilarious suggestion. Please behave yourself or enlist me in your kill
file so that I don't have to read your nonsense.

I'm not about to stop having an opinion of my own. You might be upset
by reading it up to the point where you'd rather not see it. I really
don't care about this kind of emotions. It's like drained from all
social aspects.

100:1 it was you who made mr Dolan the way he is. I just read the one
posting and I already feel like describing the greatness of my
personality to you.

I mean look at me? It's so obviously self evident. huhuhuhu

Please read my more detailed prescriptions on the internets.

Simon Brooke is a long time regular on uk.rec.cycling. I doubt that he
will see this reply since it is only posted to alt.rec.bicycles.recumbent.

I do not believe that kill files work that way. If you do not want to
read posts from Simon Brooke, you will have to put him in your kill file.

That would be a very poor bet (trust me, I was there). Ed Dolan may only
be vaguely aware or not at all of who Simon Brooke is.

I mean look at me? It's so obviously self evident. huhuhuhu....

I am assuming you are advising him only on some technicalities and not
whether to actually do it. He can make up his own mind about that just as we
all can.

There is no way that Simon Brooke can specify that his posts NOT be read
by Gaby de Wilde. He would be more successful trying to cut down the
mightiest tree in the forest with a herring.

Kill-filers are the pits especially if they want to make comments about
those whom they have kill-filed. I am reminded of old Cletus Lee of Texas
who liked to do this sort of thing - damn his rotten soul all the way to
Hell and back! Once you have kill-filed someone, then for God's sakes, shut
up about him!...

Old Cletus also posted at least one private email without permission and
misrepresented what others wrote on at least one occasion.
