Obviously you don't deal with the likes of Sandfort...
Well, I missed the golden days of alleged army-grade mules here, but since summer 94 there's been nobody posting to cpunks who was intolerable all the time or tolerable all the time either. There are fewer tolerable than intolerable but that's the nature of this sulphurous waterhole. You drink here and you go nuts, thinking you got smarter than the others, feel the urge to shape up the fools. You got to expect that the longer you read this list the more your mind and ethics degrade. But that's better than those lists where the opposite is futilely promised. The best lists go downhill without end, abandon all attempts to improve themselves, accept scum that remain -- all too human. Barroom brawling produces no winners only scars and cauliflowers. Gentlepersons just watch and tut-tut in lengthy essays on what the world is descending to, then vote for more regulation and policing for everyone except them and their vile secret practices. Too late to be an outsider, hanging above the fray like an angel, that option disappeared with the compulsive need for appreciation, the snake bit the angel overdosing on conceit of knowledge. Omniscient God hates his adoring children knowing the suck-ups thoroughly as chips off. One of the godly features of this Styx is the violent reaction against manipulative praise, especially if it is not aimed at your proffered graven image. You want to screw someone here just tell them how much you appreciate their contributions. Lie.
