Don't feel like talking? Why don't you just keep your mouth shut?

As far as I can see, you are the hostile troll. But I'd bet that
information is no surprise to you. How many newsgroups are you being
your own man on?

Well, that's probably because some of your buddies are being taken to task
for their obnoxious behaviour to newbies. I think you'll find I've been on
this group quite a while and have made hardly a peep. I am just a wee bit
sick of watching newbies chased away as too stunned to speak amongst and
august half a dozen semi perment trolls.
Personally, I could care less if they shit well barked barbeque morning,
noon and night. They're just that same rude group of insecure macho-men
that pop up in a lot of social situations. Well now, for a coupla days
anyway, I'm gonna make time mouth off at them for a change.

You'll find that in recent times, I'm a pretty quiet monitorer of the
newsgroups, but these shitheads have ****ed me off for a while... I'm
havin' a stressful week so who better than to return some aggression to than
some anti-social, arrogant old farts who constantly pick on others.

Having been a newbie not that long ago, I don't recall any of the
behavior you describe. Then again, I didn't come into the newsgroup and
tell them what they were doing was wrong and that some other way was the
"one true way".

> Personally, I could care less if they shit well barked barbeque morning,

Oddly enough, that _is_ the reason the newsgroup exists. People who know
how to do and are, by ample demonstration, willing to share techniques
and advice. How much BBQ advice have you posted here?

You must have very little else to do if your goal is to mouth off at
invisible strangers.

So you become hostile, argumentative and controlling. How interesting.

You are clearly in need of professional help. Please seek same.

If you perchance are referring to my reply to someone (can't
recall who as I don't see posts from them any longer)
regarding top posting in the group. I still don't see where
I was obnoxious. I *politely* tried to explain the the idiot
(as he showed when he replied to my post) that top posting
isn't appreciated in this group and again, *politely* tried
to point out that many would not read his posts if that
behavior persisted.

I didn't flame him until he got obnoxious regarding my post
and then when the behavior didn't change I put him in my
killfile and haven't seen any further discussion, although
there may well have been some.

If you join any new group it's really not a good idea to try
and change accepted protocol just because you happen not to
like it/them. If you want/choose to be a member of any
group choose not to follow established norms of the group,
even after someone has tried to *politely* explain the
situation then *you* are the troll and deserve whatever
lambasting you get.

I suggest that you're targeting your hostility at the wrong
targets.

I saw that show, but haven't been moved to try it. I'm sure it would
work, but I have the WSM and all.

Any idea how many people have come through here over the years axing
about that episode of "Good Eats"? No, you wouldn't, given your
appalling level of reading comprehension.

>Why don't you just keep your mouth shut?

Because you would then forget your place in the grander scheme of
things. You might even start to think that what you have to say has
some value other than to supply pure entertainment for those of us
looking on.

But do carrion. You aren't played out yet.

Would it help you to write in comprehensible English if you wiped the
spittle off of your monitor every now and then?

HTH, though the offer of an aspirin still holds.

K00k-sign indeed, though it will be solidified when he tells me that
he is going to make me keep my mouth shut and then attempts to do so.

Kevin,

Why did you choose this post to cross post to ARK? Did you think you
posted something funny that you had to share with your friends?

Sad, very sad.

I did, all went well for about 45 minutes and then the hot plate burned
up..I replaced the hot plate but never did try using it as a heat source
for a smoker again.
