No, no you didn't. You read enough to totally misunderstand something. I guess selling books isn't the same as reading them.brianlux said:I call further bullshit. Knock it off with the personal attacks, buddy.Sorry. had to edit. My arthritis sometimes makes my finger the wrong fucking keys.
So someone starts a thread and everyone comes to shit on the thread because they don't like the OP. Nice work guys.

You're on a thread (that I started) for the sole purpose of calling the article you didn't read bullshit. Who the fuck is trolling whom?brianlux said:ecdanc said:
Dude, you felt the need to come respond to a post that is "hey, here's an interesting article, what do you think?" with "I didn't read it, but it's bullshit." What do you expect?brianlux said:ecdanc said:

What do I expect? From you? Well, basically bating, trolling, narcissism, antagonism. Pretty much covers all the bases, right?hippiemom = goodness0 -
There were 2 links in there that I really liked, they were quite good, so I will definitely go back and read through some of the others that didn't interest me on the first pass.
The piece itself was not at all to my taste, it gave me the feeling of the academic equivalent of an amateur bodybuilder flexing his/her muscles in front of a mirror so his/her friends could watch and clap.
It did have some interesting points though, if you could make it through the Ayn gRANDstanding.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -

Haha, it apparently is. And I found some of this funny as well.dignin said:
It was pretty funny, but ive never heard of Love Island. Is it really a thing?ecdanc said:
Here's my confession: It took me a couple of reads before I figured out this was some sort of satire. The reason is that the OP has some (for me) pretty far out beliefs and opinions, way outside my wheelhouse. So when I started reading this I thought "here we go again". When I came to the line about "self-evidently noxious practices like marriage" I'm wondering how the OP endorses this author's work, since I believe he is in a heterosexual marriage and has offspring. And at the end, the author identifies as "a feminist committed to cyborg ecology and queer communism." I don't believe that is part of the satire, but again, way outside my wheelhouse and I am not familiar with either of those identity classifications. So I struggled to figure out if this was satire, or someone writing on a serious topic but producing a word salad. In the end I rolled the dice, considered it satire and laughed. Hope I'm laughing with them and not at them.

I wasn't going to click your link but noticed you posted the article, so I am in the middle of reading it. Doesn't matter though cause if this is a Brian v you thing about trolling, you are the troll for sure. But I gotta check with the board sabermetrics owner.ecdanc said:

Except you didn’t do this. You made an eye catching title, some might say, provocative, and posted a link. No comments from you, not even a “what do you think?” I read the article and it reads like a philosophy grad student’s essay, maybe with a little too much time on their hands to concern themselves with runny makeup and hygiene routines on a tv show I never watched nor heard of. Is this the most pressing issue to write about? Or philosophize about? Plus, it was difficult to read as it jumped around a lot and made my eyes close and head snap.ecdanc said:

Pretty much nothing, it just reminded me of her writing style. The almost self-congratulatory tone, like I said, it comes off very much like posing for applause.ecdanc said:

It did have some interesting points though, if you could make it through the Ayn gRANDstanding.
It's sort of a polar opposite to Rand though, the other side of the coin. Where Rand would beat you over the head relentlessly with a thousand ways of stating the same simple idea, this writer prefers to beat around the bush a thousand ways to convey a simple idea without stating it.
But through all that, she? made some interesting and valid points, my favorite of which was that women tend to grow tired of sexual monogamy quicker and possibly to a greater degree than men.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -
I'll be honest, and it's not because ecdanc posted it... I really didn't find it very funny. Some parts yes, most parts no. But hey, we are all different and like different things.hippiemom = goodness0
