Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Little Hawk Date: 27 Jul 04 - 06:19 PM The trouble with your ideas, Spaw, is that sometimes they are simply so far out there that...that...what was I talking about? |

We're too busy choking and spewing all those goddamed blessings. Thanks, Spaw. It is very encouraging to see you crawl out of the woodwork once a month and tell us how much funnier things used to be!! At least it helps reinforce my confidence that my meory still works. :>) A |

I've not had time to read it all, as I've been away a few days. But I must pick you up on the suggestion that Teribus and Wolfgang are similar. I had you down as a Mudcatter gifted with rare insight until I saw this. And you didn't leave it there. You said BOTH were like DougR! I expect I'll soon be reading that all three are like William Shatner. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Georgiansilver Date: 27 Jul 04 - 07:03 PM Was actually talking to someone I consider an intellegent and articulate friend Amos. If you choose to choke and spew over my offerings that's up to you. Be Blessed. |

From: catspaw49 Date: 27 Jul 04 - 11:45 PM Actually Amos, even with the shinola at present, I'd be here more often except this old computer has just about had it. dodgy ethernet card along with old age makes Roadrunner slow even!!!! Sometimes it makes it not at all!!! This thing was new when I signed on here in '98 and I've gotten great service but the times ain't just a changin', they done changed. I now require a reboot about 10 times a day and sometimes then the damn thing still won't work...........***sigh***........... Hello?......Dell?.......We need to talk............. Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Don Firth Date: 28 Jul 04 - 02:24 PM KayPro II, anybody? I just thought I'd report in. I just had another channeling contact with Cyril. He felt that Marty should know that it is possible that he was not totally abandoned by she who bore him. As you may recall, she who bore him fled the Dumpster in panic and disgust after first glimpsing what she had just let . . . loose on an unsuspecting world. Considering his pathetic state (which has remained pretty much the same all these years), one might think that she was a bit callous deserting Well, Cyril (the soul of The Vererable Bede and many, many others, including Voltaire, reincarnated in the form of a city-dwelling raccoon) told me that, after he encouraged Marty to leave the relative safety and security of the Dumpster that had been his life-long home and try to build a life in the Outside World, he (Cyril) often returned, just to check the latest menu to be found in the Dumpster. The overgrown vacant lot in which he lived offered little in the way of comestibles, and he had found that Dumpsters, particularly those behind restaurants and apartment buildings, frequently offered a good variety of nutritional treats. Anyway, during his frequent visits to the Dumpster in question, Cyril noted a strange, recurring event. Regularly, once a year—as best as he could recall from what Marty had told him, on the anniversary of the night in which Marty was Cyril wanted Marty to know. (I'm all choked up.) Don Firth |

Paint a little hole on the top of your head and put a big rubber band around your ears and you and your schmuck could pose as twins. I still find your writing much less interesting than anything else I've taken the time to just scan................and pan. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 28 Jul 04 - 09:37 PM No, "Fool" stroupe the motto of Uncle-Intellectual. Scan and pan, as in wasting one's time with shit writing that's posing as intellectual. It's not. How can someone be an intellectual barbing everyday with someone in cyberspace using a fake name while they are getting a kick out of it? Intellectuals do greater things than that. They don't hang around web forums just pretending to be intellectuals. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 28 Jul 04 - 10:06 PM No, I've always claimed that Martin Gibson is a fake name and a character that I care to portray on this forum only. Why? For my own entertainment as I have been saying. And if you had any brains, you would realize I was directing my statement at pseudo-intellectuals like yourself who do very little but wasting their time trying to one-up someone as myself, who doesn't give a shit what you say or do. get it now? |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 Jul 04 - 12:43 AM I find it is so understimulating, Marty, to one's intellect (and somewhat depressing) when someone obviously desirous of engaging me in a batle of wits turns up with only half the normal issue of armament. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Don Firth Date: 29 Jul 04 - 12:48 PM ". . . entertainment. . . ." Why do you think I'm writing up the saga of you early days, Marty? Pure entertainment (well . . . because it's about you, it can't be all that pure). And it's cute that you keep accusing me of trying to sound intellectual when all I am is a pair of typing hands channeling the soul of a raccoon. But then, to you, a soup can label would probably sound intellectual. The reason Marty "scans and pans" is that he can't read without moving his lips as he points at the words. He gets dirty finger marks all over his computer screen and after reading more than a paragraph or two, he has to stop because his mouth is tired (not to mention his brain—actually, it's hard to mention his brain at all without having to suppress a guffaw!). That explains the scanning part. He pans anything he doesn't understand, and if you write anything longer than a couple of sentences, by the time he reaches the last sentence, he's forgotten the first, so of course it doesn't make sense to him. It really amazes me that he's able to handle a word like "intellectual." It's five whole syllables! Now, if he only had at least a foggy idea of what the word means. . . . Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 29 Jul 04 - 06:10 PM Don, you are a testicle in formaldihyde. what's funny about what you write about me is that it is so far off base and that you waste your time even doing it. I don't waste my time panning the crap you write, Don. I gain time by not reading it. so do others. It's amazing that you can type at all don, when your finger is in your ass at the same time. You know what, maybe I can start writing some fiction about you. But you wouldn't like it one bit. I can call the charachter Don Frith or Don Filth. That's not you is it Don? So it wouldn't matter what I said about you, would it? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Georgiansilver Date: 29 Jul 04 - 06:27 PM Perhaps you should start writing fiction about Don.....Martin! Might show that you have some usable brain power if your composition proved as successful as Dons literal triumph. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 Jul 04 - 08:52 PM Marty, the level of intellectual involvement of your constant childish snipes and jibes and cussing is about as entertaining as a Christian Wet T-shirt Competition. I have generously given details where you could find some of the output of my intellect. You have claimed to be capable of exceeding my level, and also claimed expertise with knowledge and experience of Folk Music, but have not yet given us a URL to investigate the output of your intellect. I would be interested in 'scanning and panning' (one should respect one's opponent by only using the same level of intellect) some of your output, but I suspect that it just is all between your ears - that's about the size of it. I look forward to intensely studying your mighty thesis on Don... I can probably spare a minute or two.... Robin |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Blackcatter Date: 29 Jul 04 - 10:29 PM What exactly, in your mind, is a Christian Wet T-shirt Competition? I've seen Christian boobs - they can be as fun to watch as any! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 29 Jul 04 - 11:22 PM Ahh! but that's the whole point... you only get to see tee T-shirts... |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: The Fooles Troupe Date: 30 Jul 04 - 10:27 AM "wouldn't behave the way I have some do" Now Wait On! That was a typo!

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 30 Jul 04 - 12:48 PM Christian girls in west T-shirts can be OK, provided they did not go to that famous Catholic school "Our Lady of Perpetual Guilt." As for writing fiction about people here, forget it. The point is that doing so is a complete waste of time as guys like Don wallow their life away doing such drivel. As for "fool" sroupe's intellect, I believe that I have read a few poems by him in a men's room stall, underneath the articulate and imaginative artwork of some Mexican guy. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Jeri Date: 30 Jul 04 - 12:55 PM Spaw, (if you manage to ever get it up again), we desperately need you around here. See if someone out there has a DaVinci that can fix computers, or get a new one! The next device ought to be one that extracts one's head from one's butt. I see something like a tube and a thing that comes out of it that looks sort of like the staple-remover second set of jaws on an alien (from Alien). You could then stick it, nay, SHOVE it in the auction. We could purchase it for ourselves, but how many people realize it when their own head is up their butts? Perhaps we could buy it for 'next time', or just leave it on the desk at work, and point to it at appropriate times. I miss you, Spaw, Be Fucked -- Jeri |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Georgiansilver Date: 30 Jul 04 - 01:00 PM mmmm sorry you have an inability to meet the challenge Martin. I really though there was something in you that was made of "sterner stuff" as we Brits put it. Another Brit expression comes to mind too.."All mouth and no trousers". As you are unable to meet the challenge...perhaps a few of your usual expletives or insults would not go amiss..you sure are good at those. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: jacqui.c Date: 30 Jul 04 - 02:01 PM Oh - and I was so looking forward to seeing what Marty could produce! We'll just have to stick with maestro Firth - he obviously has no equal in this field. When's the next installment Don? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 30 Jul 04 - 02:24 PM It's not a question of being up for the challange. To me it's just too fucking stupid. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Don Firth Date: 30 Jul 04 - 03:06 PM When you suggested that you might start writing some fiction about me, you piqued my curiousity and you got us all into a state of excited anticipation of your offerings. And now you disappoint us all by wimping out. That's really too bad. But we all understand. Marty's just afraid of people waiting with their sharpened editorial blue pencils. He knows he's not up to the challenge, so (in his usual masterful prose), he calls it "too fucking stupid" and slinks away. Well, that's okay, Marty. Get back in your Dumpster and play with your flies. Don Firth |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 30 Jul 04 - 03:11 PM No you fucking old idiot. You can jerk-off in your wife's panties if your interest was so piqued. You know that I have such a way with words that I could blow you out of the water if I wanted to. I just do not feel it is time well spent. Writing fiction here seems not very rewarding to me. while you are doing that, I am working on songs to perform for a real audience. Take a look at who is the pathetic one. I have showed some of your posts to my friends and they find what you do and say as very sad. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Don Firth Date: 30 Jul 04 - 03:52 PM Well, let me see. . . . I know you're afraid to participate, Marty, but as an exercise, let's see if you can write something without referring to "fucking" or "jerking off." No? Well, I understand. Some people's writing tends to be centered exclusively on wish-fulfillment based on what they feel they are missing in real life. By the way, if this is all such a "complete waste of time" and "too fucking stupid," why are you still here, reading it all and commenting on it? Don Firth |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 30 Jul 04 - 04:05 PM To fuck with your head, Don. And to have some politically incorrect fun and make you ask such stupid questions. Thanks for the on-going opportunity you always present. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: akenaton Date: 30 Jul 04 - 04:12 PM Excuse me for butting in, but does this infantile nonesense prove anything or entertain anyone...I think not.. With so much happening politically and musically, have you both not more to do with your time? Every other thread has you two arseholes shouting at one another. What a pair of egos!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Don Firth Date: 30 Jul 04 - 05:02 PM I'll let somebody else answer that. Don Firth |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: Once Famous Date: 30 Jul 04 - 05:28 PM Ake, you are not excused for butting in. For you, there is no excuse. Please go find a Shatner thread to whine about. I never participate in those. The joke is so lame, already. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Feuds that aren't really feuds... From: jacqui.c Date: 30 Jul 04 - 05:33 PM Ake - I think you'll find that, in general, Martin starts the arguments with his unwarranted attacks on other mudcatters. He has, of late, become more and more insulting and foulmouthed and has a real talent for souring every thread that he takes part in. I've said before that it might do some good if that type of post was just ignored completely as he is obviously looking for the attention that he must lack in other areas of his life. Unfortunately it's not always that easy to ignore such rudeness and I must admit that I've really been enjoying Don's story - it makes up for the number of threads that I've stopped reading because Martin has spoiled them. Don may be carrying on the argument but he is maintaining a decency that Martin seems to be incapable of and is, at least entertaining. I think, if Martin was not carrying out what seems to be a vendetta against some mudcatters Don would not be pushing back. Where does the problem start? |
