i would like to say that the most obvious way that someone fucks around with the board is by posting threads all about the state of the board,
the way that someone sows dissent and division is by banging on about losers who are somehow against the forum but not naming names, creating a kind of mystery force that is out to get us all
I'm saying that a non-theoretical, identifiable and verifiably ill-intentioned small group of people have been trolling the forum
fight if you've got a fight to pick. On whatever side you believe your interests lie
ok, my fight is with your meandering, grandiose, falsely mysterious drivell and the diversion it creates,
i myself have already been drawn into by wasting this mornings news reading time, instead dissecting this fucking stupid thread, and then letting myself down by responding ... oh well
Narcissistic personality disorder1. has a grandiose sense of self-importance (e.g., exaggerates achievements and talents, expects to be recognized as superior without commensurate achievements)
although it doesn't happen often, I suppose that I could be totally mistaken
I'll try to protect the guilty and the innocent to the best of my ability
it's not like I'm getting paid to map out every fucking non-subtlety in Thee Circle Jerk of Doom
2. is preoccupied with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance
Because, hello? I'm a politically serious intellectual who finds something close to godliness in transgressive art.
I don't like to be the agent of anyone's misfortune.
(a) said straight out that they thought I posed a threat to it
3. believes that he or she is "special" and unique
first I want to give anyone who's at risk a chance to protect themselves
you really shouldn't do "covert" if you don't know how
I work with details, that's just my method.
4. requires excessive admiration
That impulse was always kind of an Achilles' heel back when I wasn't much of a tough reporter
you're very lucky you're getting called on your bullshit by me
5. has a sense of entitlement
I'm now going to give mods and admin and you ass-clowns a short period of time to take me out if you can
6. is interpersonally exploitative, i.e., takes advantage of others to achieve his or her own ends
But you know. I'm talking about shit that's fractionally more serious that that. And this is what I have to say:
8. is often envious of others or believes others are envious of him or her
So if anyone wonders or cares how I know (whatever part of what I know you wonder about), please ask me.
9. shows arrogant, haughty behaviors or attitudes
I've had it with you all. As far as I can see, you do not have a valid cause.
your pretensions are profoundly offensive to me personally
the pathetic extent that you're pretending to be and/or actually believe that you are intellectuals, politically serious people
you really can't start learning that lesson too fucking soon, believe me
it takes much, much more work than you seem to realize in order to get anywhere or achieve anything. Including power
Anyway, fuck me. I'm no fucking better than anyone else. And certainly no better than you are. Don't ever forget it.
get. over. it.
is there anything of substance you would like to add to the forum today?
