Has posting on this forum hindered your employment prospects?

I was only joking about the suing Huguenot. Ouch!!

Are you going to leave that up long enough for me to respond?

[Huguenot]

Nah, he was just looking for an excuse to have a go. He thinks that if he's 'protecting' someone else then it gives him a white card.

He doesn't think you're big enough to look after yourself, and he doesn't realise that the thought itself is condescending and patronising. He doesn't understand why people find him dislikeable, and doesn't have the imagination to see his behaviour as others would seee it.

Just part of the silly grievance he has against the world in general for not showing him enough love ;-)

Well indeed, and if he thought that was love it would be really quite revealing!

Oh Huguenot, I feel so terribly inadequate that the best I could come up with was "the kind of pomposity that suggests you're masturbating furiously in front of both a mirror and your computer screen."

Still though, snap.

[Huguenot]

Ah, thankyou!

I don't think it was appreciated by all. I've just had a volley of abuse on PM from the newly registered and never posted 'buncle', who is notable by his/her inability to spell "oudeous" [sic]

[mockney piers]

That would have to be some gymslip from Pennsylvania who likes trucks if google is anything to go by. I can't believe there's only one usage of 'oudeous' in t'interwebland!!

Well, i guess that's three now.

[jalapeno]

This kind of language is an externalisation of your own mentality. I call upon ADMIN to clarify any false accusations.

Thanks.

[Huguenot]

Eh, what? Are you asking me to confirm receipt?

Here's the message:

Alan Dale

From: buncle

Huguenot

You are an oudeous piece of shit.

Bully that, @#$%&.

It would certainly be spectacularly contrived if I registered a new identity yesterday in order to send myself rude messages today so as to react to Axeman's challenge that presumably I saw in my Crystal Ball?

I confess I wouldn't have thought of it myself, jalapeno, there must be a veritable Moriarty inside you struggling to get out!

[Huguenot]

I didn't think I would Alan. Anyway it has none of your dry wit, and I think Axeman's spelling is better than that ;-)

I think Admin's probably got better things to do than chase around after a wally.

[DJKillaQueen]

I'm pretty sure that admin don't have access to or control over pms - only the public message boards.

[Huguenot]

You're right in one sense DJKQ, but Admin doesn't actaully need access to the PM.

The server itself will have a log file covering instructions sent to alter the database (which is required to post or send a PM). Because the PM is time-stamped it wouldn't take a second to locate the relevant instruction, which will contain within it the IP address of the originator.

The IP address can be cross referenced against other posters to reveal who else posts from that address.

It could be someone else using the same computer, but since strangers rarely create new identities to send hatemail it's most likely to be a frequent poster on that PC.

But as I said, hardly worth it.

[Axeman]

Firstly, let me assure you that I wouldn't dream of sending ugly, unsolicited emails. It's illegal, not to mention amateur.

Secondly,

Yes, Huguenot, I'm familiar with the scene you're referring too.

But as a fan, I'm sure you're equally familiar with the similarities in subplot in both the thread I've attached and the film, American Psycho.

In the form of American Psycho's often spoke of, but never seen, Paul Allen. A successful and much revered member of his little coterie of equally narcissistic and repellent 'friends'. Paralleling the thread I attached, he goes missing. And throughout the film, and the thread, his disappearance is intermittently touched upon, raising the possibility that he may still be alive, living abroad, in either London or Singapore (I can't remember). And like the eventual outcome of the thread, in an equally unexplained twist, it turns out he was infact, there all along.

If only reality hadn't mirrored Brett Easton Ellis' fictitious finale.

And like the character flaws in the film, Huguenot, your arrogant, self assured attitude tells me that you're not averse to comparing, amongst others 'things', business cards.

Now, you'll have to excuse me, Huguenot. I have to return some video tapes.

[Huguenot]

300gsm art paper Axeman, and yours? :))

[Axeman]

My business cards reflect their owner. Unassuming but gets straight down to business.

Though I was thinking of having my tie-pin engraved with: 'W@nker'.

Perceptions, there are many and whether you plummet to the lowest configuration of them all is your choice alone. I rest my case.

Pleasant Evening!

[Huguenot]

That was a case?

In your quest for an aphorism Moriarty, I fear you confuse a lesser mortal such as myself.

I may have to resort to a sacrifice as prescribed by your good self: "If you have an alramingly large void in your brain that no trick in the book could cure but reduced to resorting to exceedingly desperate measures to overcome this element, do your self a favour, banish yourself to hell by setting yourself on fire."

Buona notte!

[jalapeno]

Quel dommage!

There was me thinking you would come up with something original given your profound insight into politics. There is something I'm dying to quote on your behalf but we could argue all night and day. Not worth the time. So I say take your own advice and have a life!
