Same old shit...

Unable to counter with a reasoned response you revert to mere childish
namecalling. All fluff and no substance, as usual. Yawnnnnnn...

Is anybody reading this?

I call you for calling me an "ignorant cocksucker", and you come
back at me for name calling?

Bwuahahahahahha

Clue: TB is curable, so it's licked. "We", I'm sure, refers to a team
where your job is something like running down tennis balls at Wimbledon,
or maybe cleaning out stables at the Kentucky Derby.


More retarded baby bullshit. The boys at the tennis court probably
make 18k pounds a year.

The stable hand at the Ky track makes a few hundred dollars a day,
and that is without tips. Been there, done that. Just one more thing
that you know nothing about.

---
You obviously know nothing about sarcasm.

The ballboys (and girls, just in case you have trouble telling the
difference between them) are _not_ the tennis players and the
stablehands are _not_ the jockeys. Likewise, on the team you're a part
of... Can you complete the sentence?

No? Here's a hint: ...you're not a player, you're an inconsequential
shit-shoveler.

Doesn't sound to me like that's making the world a better place, but
then with your inconsistencies I'm sure "better" is an unquantifiable

We have plants in several countries. The economy is in recovery, or
are you not up on current events?

I am an engineer in the HV proto lab. I was between two projects.
The belt had arrived that morning. The lab has been waiting for the
belt for months as we were not masking purchase due to the economy.
We fixed the plotter we have.

I'd bet that your numbers will not be anywhere close. The fact that
you don't know reflects on the credence of your posts, and verifies
the stench wafting from your ears.

Boy, you need some work.

I suggest you get yourself over to the nearest elementary school and try
out for the debate team. Save yourself some time and aggravation by
trying out at the third grade level; that way you'll only have three
failures to deal with.

John, You'd do us all a favor if you'd refrain from responding to
DarkMatter. Then he'd remain totally unknown... he's permanently

[JeffM]

Call it an opinion then.
I notice that the difference between fact and opinion is often paper-thin.

When folks don't stick to a standard
we get the kind of thing that we have with Internet Explorer,
where M$ puts out code which does not conform to the standards,
then has no intension of repairing the errors in their poorly-written code.

Developers who have followed all the conventions
and have constructed projects which work perfectly under all other browsers,
find that they don't work in IE
and they have to put major effort into tweaking their code
to make it conform with the deviant behavior of the jerks in Redmond.

Standards are your friends.
Wide-spread deviant behavior leads to societal chaos.


Adding to the OP, I think it's especially cute
when folks feel they have to label the text as snipped,
as if asking for permission.

I don't see even the vaguest mention of a call referring to my pointing

There was recently a ridiculous squabble

Doesn't anyone here know when you are being wound up? Look back over this
thread. It's like a squabble in a kindergarten.

Anyway, this thread has nothing to do with electronics, basic or otherwise
and it's received far more attention than any of the real posts to this
group. If you really want to avoid wasting bandwidth, may I suggest
ignoring such obvious invitations to fractiousness as that provided by
JeffM.

I'm not going to contribute further to this thread, even though I expect to
be flamed by the more easily aroused of you, except to say that far to many
of you are acting like children.

Gee, Sarge, I guess we all ought to straighten up and fly right now that
you've reprimanded us and reminded us about how proper ladies and
gentlemen are supposed to behave?

Well, since this is an electronics newsgroup, I suspect that imaginary
posts are just as necessary as real ones, especially if they bound the
real ones in quadrature.

I prefer to ignore suggestions that unruliness should be eschewed.

Hey, Sarge, It's not an act!

BTW, if you expect to be flamed for posting a "contribution" and you go
ahead and post it anyway maybe that means you're spoiling for a fight?

Sorry you can't reply since you said you weren't going to contribute
further to this thread, but maybe you can start a new one.
