What an incredibly astute observation. Even if you have indeed made some sort of charitable contribution, what good is it if you exult in the death of toddlers? Furthermore, the fact that you have to boast about such perceived qualities only exemplifies your insecurity. You reveled in their deaths, took satisfaction in them, gloated about them, which means they were "good" deaths to you, your definition of which is environmentally friendly. Oh, but apparently you do. You assert as much by saying: THEY WERE OFFERED AND ADVISED TO LEAVE THE CITY. You further exaggerate your knowledge of the circumstances by stating that I do not: "YOU CAN'T EVEN DEDUCE THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF DEAD CHILDREN VERY WELL." However, the fundamental flaw in your "argument" is that we are of course discussing children,who are wholly reliant on their parents. Their parents may very well have been advised or offered to leave the city; it does not mean the children were capable of doing it on their own. Good grief, we're talking about infants here, whom you apparently believe are wholly capable of making rational judgements and acting upon them. Of course they are not, and are thus innocent in this affair as they are in all wars and conflicts. I need no praise for pointing out the obvious - that you care more for a patch of mango trees than a helpless human life. Decorum? Of the two of us, I have exhibited far more of it than you. Admittedly, that's not saying much, but what the hell. Everything material, apparently, but not not the really important things, such as a regard for others. Morals. Your parents failed miserably in that regard. I wonder if they're even aware of it. An effete snob lacking compassion. They did a hell of a job. Regarding my flaws you have only written unfounded epithets. As for the whole picture, you have done nothing. Prove it. Exhibit your greatness to us. Post your art. Share your magnificence! Perhaps you will gain more of a following... I loathe myself for arguing with fanatics, but sometimes I just can't help it. My self-esteem would improve considerably if I didn't, for I often find myself sinking almost to their level, as I am with you. More recently, I blew the opportunity to buy calls on FRNT when it was bouncing off support at $9. That really hurt. Fluff. Of course you fail to deny that you blatantly made up words and attributed them to me. Another flaw of yours - you are a liar. I know as much about opining as you do. What has that have to do with defining "contribute" in the context you placed it in? So what if you've heard it before? If you make vague assertions, you can expect to be asked to elaborate. But of course you know this, you merely avoid the question as you have many others. Coward. Your rebuttals are staggering. Nah, they threw me out after they discovered I have a conscience. If our species is fortunate, you will be copied with the regularity of a eunuch having sex. I don't care to know you. It is enough to judge you, as you said, by your actions. I love that you are very far away from me, and that we are separated by cyberspace. One cannot hurt that which does not exist. Incorrect semantics. Correct semantics. If that is true, you need extensive further training. Learning to spell correctly would be a good start. Your opinion = your logic. You have already admitted to it. What is left to deduce? That you are lying again? Please don't justify my existence merely because I try to preserve the marine environment. It is as shallow as saying your life is worth something because you claim to be an artist.
What you fail to understand is that sometimes wars are necessary, and failing to fight them can be worse than not fighting. What would the world be like if Hitler was allowed to invade and conquer unchecked? Keep those synapses firing.
GOSH HAPABOY, YOU WRITE WITH SUCH AUTHORITY. I'M PLEASED TO KNOW HOW SELF-RIGHTEOUS YOU'RE. IN THAT WE'RE ALIKE. HITLER WAS SELF-RIGHTEOUS TOO- HIS SELF- RIGHTEOUSNESS WAS DIFFERENT TO YOURS, BUT IT WAS STILL A JUDGEMENT BASED ON OPINIONS, AND THEN FORCED ONTO OTHER PEOPLE. JUDGEMENTS MUST BE MADE, BUT WHEN PEOPLE WITH YOUR LACK OF LOGIC, AND WITH YOUR INTENSITITY OF GOD LOGIC GAIN POWER, ODD THINGS OCCUR. MAYBE YOU'RE A MEGALOMANIAC TOO.
I want you to know that I respect your academic ability and your occupation. I do think you think at an above average level, but really, you lost this debate after your first post which explained your sentiment. I can see that you're a very proud person. So proud in fact that you're unwilling to admit you're wrong. This lack gives me reason to think that you're afraid, and lacking in self confidence, and thus, because you 're afraid you're a coward, and cowards are liars. Sorry. But I do respect your vocabulary and writing abilities, even though beyond basic communication your writing skills are worthless. And, but don't feel bad, you're good enough to be proud, and you've worked long enough to think of yourself as a respectable citizen. PS, I hope you don't use a thesaurus.
You write words (often misspelled) but "explain" very little. LOL! Calling dead children pathetic, parasites, etc. is exultation of the worst kind. I feel compassion for them. You do not. And your basis, your "logic" regarding why you described them as you did continues to be absent from any of your posts. Quite simply, you opened your mouth and got called on it, and you are unable to respond cogently. Choosing a tree or two over a paralyzed human being is not humanitarian. No, what I don't match of yours is a contempt, bordering on hatred, of our species. And no morals. Bravo for them. Feeble excuse. When the coward cannot answer directly, he avoids the issue altogether. No thanks. Why should I waste more time searching your posts? If you have posted them, show the link. I do argue over many issues, i.e. water quality control, mixing zones, etc. I do not loathe myself because of it. This is no longer a debate. If it were, I won in its infancy. It is now becoming a tiresome flame war, brought about by your evasiveness. o·pine v. o·pined, o·pin·ing, o·pines v. tr. To state as an opinion. You lose. Again. LOL! You have a patent on the word "coward"? My, my, you are a work of, um, art. Pun intended. I have no cause other than to request that you fully explain and rationalize your description of the dead children. That or admit you were wrong to say it. You evade the issue over and over is your fault, not mine. And the world is better for it. No doubt those who must interact with you on a daily basis are grateful that your personality disorder is not malignant. Another patent? Like you? ROFL! You didn't confuse it with Semites, did you? Thank you for lauding my accuracy. ROFL! This explains much. Very much, most notably your arrogance and immaturity . Apparently your years of English class in high school, middle school, and elementary availed you to naught. You're a walking poster child for the educational reform movement. Another lie, for I have quoted your lies extensively, i.e. attributing statements to me that I did not make. Your refusal to address them only makes your falsehoods more apparent. Some days it does feel that way. You'll learn eventually when you get a job and cease suckling from your parents' teats. I can say that because I did not have to rely on them to pay for my education, and worked 30 - 35 hours a week while in school. Are you working, on scholarship, or is daddy financing the whole grand experience + living expenses? If it is the middle or latter of those, you should be getting straight A's. I don't know about your other subjects, but your English professor is, I'm sure, appalled.
LOL! Is this the best you can do? Wait, I forgot, you're a sophomore in college. Intensity of god logic.....interesting. I could explain how far removed I am from god logic, but it would only serve to feed your paranoia. Maybe. And maybe you wear women's clothing. Anything is possible.
Blah, blah, blah. And you complain about recycling verbiage. I have been wrong about many things in my life, and have consistently admitted to them. And I've learned that pride is often dangerous. But believe what you will, or must, in order to salvage what little self-esteem you do possess. My writing "skills," if you will, have been very helpful in gaining employment. Not because they are exceptional (I know they are not), but because so many products of our educational system write and speak at the same level you do. In this regard, at least, you are very mainstream. Perhaps this partly explains your obsession with art. You are lacking in one aspect, and hope to compensate by believing yourself exceptional in another. Sometimes I do, but I certainly have had no need for one thus far in our exchanges. P.S. I encourage you to use a dictionary. P.S.S. Good luck with college.
If English is a second language for rowenwood, then my following gesture is inappropriate and I apologize in advance. Otherwise:
Unless I am mistaken, the official language of Marin County, California, is English. Perhaps rowenwood chose instead to be raised speaking Urdu, in order to be "rare" and not "mainstream." Ya know, to attract chics with his mysterious aspect.
