Proofs from EJ.
« on: December 22, 2013, 10:10:54 PM »
Ok. EJ likes to demand proof that various things are or are not true. But when such proofs are tendered, he invariably weasles his way out of accepting them. Now its my turn. 1. Prove to me that Jews are not an ethnic group. Give me some place I can get that information, a book, or a reputable site on the Internet (antisemitic sites or books don't count). 2. Give me the name of EITHER Henry VIII's 7th or 8th wife. I don't even need both. 3. Prove to me that wikipedia is NOT a reliable source. Although anyone can change it, it is regularly reviewed for accuracy. 4. Write 2 paragraphs w/ completely correct orthography in the English language, as any senior in high school should be able to do by now. 5. Prove to me that Mandela did not advocate violence @ some point in his life. Well, I'm waiting...

Good luck with that. EJ's banned.

Guess you'll have to wait a month for it to expire, don't think it's permanent.

For Christmas time the banlist should be called the Naughty List.
I don't even care to find out what you're doing wrong, but I'm sure you're doing something wrong.

I'm still trying to figure out what happened. He was only back a few days!

He was trolling, deliberately posting rubbish, not making an effort to communicate coherently, derailing threads...

Come on, do you actually believe that he thinks h8 had 8 wives? Do you think he writes that badly because he doesn't know what he's doing? Do you think that he really thinks all black people should be called African Americans?

Probably. There's absolutely no getting through to Yaakov.

What if Yaakov is the real troll and he's just leading us all on a merry ride of lunacy?

Well, Ghost, I wasn't sure. I've taught @ American universities, & the calibre of student coming out of the nation's public high schools is unbelievably low. I wasn't sure if he was a troll or an idiot. He was a schmuck in either case.

Rooster, my friend! Not a nice thing to say about your old buddy! & Tausami, you wound me, truly! Many things I may be, some of them not so nice, but never a troll!

What if Yaakov and EJ are actually the same person? What if they're both alts of TK? What if everyone is actually TK? What if I'm all alone in the universe, typing into an imaginary forum and imagining responses in a desperate attempt to hide from the horror of my own lonesome existence?

I think therefor I am.  I am not your imagination, Tausami.  Now prove that you are not mine.
