Cyber 01-17-2002, 08:38 PM no-one? airtime166 01-17-2002, 08:41 PM this may be a dumb question but what is a rant ? 21inchguns 01-17-2002, 08:56 PM I could write a rant, but then I would be here writing all day..... 311 01-17-2002, 09:24 PM this is straaaaange, why would you need some to write a rant for you anyways?:confused: Pilgrim 01-17-2002, 10:34 PM Hi, I'ld be happy to write a rant for you. I usually charge $ 20.- for a standard rant which includes a minimum of 20 lines of text or 500 characters, whichever comes first. If you want a rant which does not contain swear words then it will cost you extra. Ranting without adding swear words makes writing a strong rant more difficult. No swear words = + $ 5.- to the base price. We specialize in sarcastic rants. This week we have a special. For $ 14.95 you get a 20 line sarcastic rant with a maximum of 5 swearwords and we'll throw in a customized smiley for free. I would show you a url where you could see some samples of our rants and comments from satisfied customers however our webhost has pulled the plug on our site after we ranted about him too much. Mods, feel free to move this to the advertising forum if you think that is more appropriate :D JayC 01-17-2002, 10:39 PM What is the deal lately with all of these people coming into WHT and asking the rest of us to do their work, or their homework, for them? Every day it's "my boss wants us to start hosting customers, how do we start that business?" or "I can't think of a good domain name or company name will you guys give me one?" or "what personalized license plate should I get?" Meanwhile, other people are coming up with this inane "what's this country coming to?" bs about things that aren't really about anything bad at all, when what is really wrong with this country (and I don't care which country you all are in, this applies to every country!) is all these lamers who want other people to do their stupid work for them! Well, it stops now! Write your own damn rant! Pilgrim 01-17-2002, 10:44 PM I hate people who write free rants and take the bread from those of us who try to make a living out of it! You may think that by paying less for a rant or getting a free rant you get quality service but let me tell you that those freelance ranters are ruining the market for you and us. There is no way a unqualified ranter can write a rant of the same qualtiy as a professional ranter. Usually they are just kids who are still in college trying to make a quick buck ranting and raving all over the place for almost free. But in the end there is no rant like a professional rant. But go ahead, get yourself a cheap rant. You will learn the hard way. And don't come back to this board crying that you were cheated our of your money. You have been warned! JDF 01-17-2002, 10:46 PM Maybe I'm naturally oversensitive, or maybe someone just slipped me decaf coffee this morning, but the older Mr. Cyber Wanna B gets, the more negligent he becomes. Before I start, however, I should state that to understand what Cyber's particularly pretentious form of racialism has encompassed as a movement and as a system of rule, we have to look at its historical context and development as a form of feeble-minded politics that first arose in early twentieth-century Europe in response to rapid social upheaval, the devastation of World War I, and the Bolshevik Revolution. Fortunately, the groundswell of quiet opposition to him is getting less quiet and more organized. Still, his convictions represent not only a denial of reality, but also an especially primitive sort of spiritual poison that will cause pain and injury to those who don't deserve it within a short period of time. To pretend otherwise is nothing but hypocrisy and unwillingness to face the more unpleasant realities of life. Although he obviously hates my guts (and probably yours, as well), when he tells us that it is not only acceptable, but indeed desirable, to abet ethnic genocide, dictatorships, and garrulous bribe-seekers, he somehow fails to mention that his bons mots are based on biased statistics and faulty logic, which, in turn, invalidate the conclusions Cyber draws from them. He fails to mention that the trouble with such clueless numskulls is that they intend to seize control of the power structure. And he fails to mention that nihilism doesn't work. So why does Cyber cling to it? This isn't such an easy question to answer, but let me take a stab at it: Cyber's allegations cannot stand on their own merit. That's why they're dependent on elaborate artifices and explanatory stories to convince us that a richly evocative description of a problem automatically implies the correct solution to that problem. Not to belabor the point, but a desire to wear a cloak of status and prestige is the only explanation for Cyber's otherwise inexplicable behavior. That's pretty transparent. What's not so transparent is the answer to the following question: Why does Cyber insist on boring holes in the hull of the boat in which he is also a passenger? A clue might be that Cyber is allergic to any idea that isn't morally questionable. Of that I am certain, because in order to protect innocent, little children from unctuous pinheads like Cyber, we must tell him where he can stick it. And that's just the first step. Remember, I overheard one of Cyber's cronies say, "University professors must conform their theses and conclusions to Cyber's rabid prejudices if they want to publish papers and advance their careers." This quotation demonstrates the power of language, as it epitomizes the "us/them" dichotomy within hegemonic discourse. As for me, I prefer to use language to recall the ideals of compassion, nonviolence, community, and cooperation. I am not trying to save the world -- I gave up that pursuit a long time ago. But I am trying to sound the bugle of liberty. We must remove our chains and move towards the light. (In case you didn't understand that analogy, the chains symbolize Cyber's batty announcements, and the light represents the goal of getting all of us to build bridges where in the past all that existed were moats and drawbridges.) Execrable bohemians who subordinate all spheres of society to an ideological vision of organic community might not recognize the incongruities in Cyber's doctrines, but Cyber likes to cite poll results that "prove" that he knows 100% of everything 100% of the time. Really? Have you ever been contacted by one of his pollsters? Chances are good that you have never been contacted and never will be. Otherwise, the polls would show that the encroachment of delirious utterances into the social fabric of our politics, our institutions, and our laws would give credence to my claim that Cyber used twisted and self-contradictory logic to arrive at his conclusion that the kids on the playground are happy to surrender to the school bully. In view of that, it is not surprising that if he continues to smear people of impeccable character and reputation, I will be obliged to do something about him. And you know me: I never neglect my obligations. Cyber wants nothing less than to portray wrongheaded practitioners of priggism as so-called experts. His goons then wonder, "What's wrong with that?" Well, there's not much to be done with perverted, sullen hermits who can't figure out what's wrong with that, but the rest of us can plainly see that to get even the simplest message into the consciousness of gutless ne'er-do-wells, it has to be repeated at least 50 times. Now, I don't want to insult your intelligence by telling you the following 50 times, but I suppose it's predictable, though terribly sad, that self-indulgent, supercilious bums with stronger voices than minds would revert to misguided behavior. But Cyber sometimes uses the word "ultrastandardization" when describing his fairy tales. Beware! This is a buzzword designed for emotional response. Aside from a few exceptions, this statement is decidedly valid. Let me explain. Cyber frequently avers his support of democracy and his love of freedom. But one need only look at what Cyber is doing -- as opposed to what he is saying -- to understand his true aims. As will become apparent as soon as our backs are turned, I don't care what others say about him. He's still blasphemous, splenetic, and he intends to destabilize society. What do you think of this: Cyber uses his influence to panic irrationally and overreact completely? He claims that this is the best of all possible worlds and that he is the best of all possible people. I, however, maintain that that's a load of crud. Yes, violence, mayhem, and insanity are the inevitable consequences of his commentaries, but he does, occasionally, make a valid point. But when he says that mediocrity and normalcy are ideal virtues, that's where the facts end and the ludicrousness begins. And for those sinful hooligans who want to hide behind the argument that his hangers-on are not ignominious, libidinous effrontive-types, but rather, high-handed party animals, my question is simply this: What's the difference? At the very least, Cyber ignores the most basic ground rule of debate. In case you're not familiar with it, that rule is: attack the idea, not the person. While it is not my purpose to incriminate or exculpate or vindicate or castigate, he says he's going to violate his pledge not to crush people to the earth and then claim the right to trample on them forever because they are prostrate in the blink of an eye. Is he out of his slaphappy mind? The answer is fairly obvious when you consider that everything I've said so far is by way of introduction to the key point I want to make in this letter. My key point is that to deny this is to deny science, let alone the evidence of one's own powers of observation. That's clear. But if you were to tell him that we must educate, inform, and nurture our children instead of keeping them ignorant, afraid, and in danger, he'd just pull his security blanket a little tighter around himself and refuse to come out and deal with the real world. Now, I don't want to overwork the story about how Cyber plans to convert lush forests into arid deserts, so let's just say that the tone of his snow jobs is eerily reminiscent of that of mischievous, dictatorial brigands of the late 1940s, in the sense that his generalizations represent a backward step of hundreds of years, a backward step into a chasm with no bottom save the endless darkness of death. Many the things I've talked about in this letter are obvious. We all know they're true. But still it's necessary for us to say them, because seeing Mr. Cyber Wanna B replace law and order with anarchy and despotism is a nauseating and disgusting spectacle. Pilgrim 01-17-2002, 10:47 PM :eek: How much ya charging for that? :confused: JDF 01-17-2002, 10:48 PM Free! http://www-csag.ucsd.edu/individual/pakin/complaint Cyber 01-17-2002, 10:48 PM geez, do you people get corny!

Rewdog 01-17-2002, 11:09 PM Sarcasm and jokes are much harder to detect through typing rather than someones voice.... unless you have common sense airtime166 01-17-2002, 11:13 PM :bawling: i still dont know what a rant is im not worthy JDF 01-17-2002, 11:16 PM http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=rant Rewdog 01-17-2002, 11:34 PM Looking for the definition of Rewdog.... REW => Possibly short for Rewind Rewind => Reverse Reverse => To change to what was before; possibly opposite. So we get Opposite. Dog => Something of inferior or low quality So the Opposite of Something inferior or low quality, which is like dog backwards, as we rewind it or reverse. That points to....
