Scooter, why do you resent "elitists"? You've used the word like an epithet
several times on RAO. Do you remember when Ludo pinned your ears back after
you yapped "elitism" in one of your dumb rant-posts? That was pretty funny.
All your life you've been clinging to your one-size-fits-all elixir of
stupidity, never realizing how ignorant you are. I'll bet you didn't realize
that nearly every scientific, artistic, and engineering breakthrough in human
history has been jeered as "elitist" by the stick-in-the-mud crowd. Do you
appreciate the workmanship of the ancient pyramids? They were built by slaves
in service of the massive egos of kings. How about Galileo and Martin Luther?
They were excoriated as elitists because the christian priests yapped that
ordinary people's lots were determined by "God" and self-determination was
sinful. Automobiles were hugely resented too, first as esurient indulgences of
yuppies, and later, when racing caught on big-time, as the handmaidens of
Satan. And I'm sure you know that up until the mid-1990s, cell phones were
derided as phoney status symbols by the backward-looking contingent (who then,
as now, made up the republican party).

So on the one hand, your anger and envy impel you to bitch about "elitism",
while on the other hand, you profit from the breakthroughs that once defined
it. This is called irony. (Yes, the Normals all know you're unacquainted with
the meaning of that word.)

I snipped your gibbering for the sake of brevity. Now back to your tornado of
lies...

Here's a marble-y mouthful you yapped at Gregipus once:

This reeks of some sort of RAO veterans elitist attitude.

Nobody understood your convoluted word smash then and nobody understands it
now. But there's one of your many uses of "elitist" as an imprecation. Here's
another, from one of your political woofdowns:

You realize you are rationalizing an elitist attitude. It's ok to lie
to the masses as the elitist know whats best when lives are at stake.

As usual, you're caught attacking what you usually defend.
I recommend that Normals read the entire post.
http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.opinion/msg/1b55cf99de596c8c?hl=en

Now here's a fairly restrained example of your attacks on John Atkinson and
Stereophile:

He caters to an elitist culture that has a bit of a chip that puts
more value on the ear than the equipment.

I'm sure you're too dumb to see how your own biases color your opinions of
what constitutes "an elitist culture", but the rest of us can see it very
clearly.


If you have any more lies to post, please be good enough to send them directly
to a killfile.

�Nope. You used to brag about your favorite scotch while in reality,
you don't drink.
�I guess that was in the interest of being "like-minded".

Hmmm...let's break this down. Not that I think "bragging" is the
correct verb, but there was a time when I enjoyed fine single malt
scotch. But I haven't had any alcoholic beverages in nearly two years.
Is there a reason behind it? No, not really. I just don't have any
compelling reason to go out and buy scotch right now. In my life I've
gone as long as five years without drinking alcohol. Again, it wasn't
for any particular reason. I really don't think about it much. If you
asked me if you could buy me a drink, I'd probably say yes.

Now, that seems to stretch beyond your rather narrow interpretation of
my drinking habits, doesn't it. I think this is a fantastic example of
your inability to parse even the simplest phrases.

You're an idiot, but you're not in Scottie's class of idiot.

I was surprised by his response as well.

surpise! I didn't conform.

I was surprised by the fact you conformed to Scott's rather paranoid
assertion about the politics of the people here.

(about resenting elitists)
"Actually I don't...if they're worthy. It's pompous arrogant fools
like you(George) who want to play the elitist part, but don't have any
basis
for your elitism.
In reality, they're foolish ignorant socialist dependent peasants
whose front here on RAO is pure facade."

George pretty much IS a socialist.
I disagree with Scott inpart, as I feel that George IS and elitist
and likes to order the proles about..

BTW, I will reconsider my opposition to Obama care when
Congress decides to have themselves and their families covered under
the public option.
But it appears that some piggies are just more equal than other ones.

Misbehaving is okay as long as you take it in the right spirit. If you
take it personally, then you probably should stay away from Usenet.

You mean, am I going to bow to your every whim and desire? No.

That's nice, but there are forums designed for that.

�You prefer donut holes and T-shirts.

To what, your excessive OT posting?

�I don't find donut holes and T-shirts any more entertaining than the

It doesn't matter what you think about donut holes and T-shirts. I had
a nice, friendly conversation with at least two other people here on a
subject we all found interesting. Evidently you are against nice,
friendly conversations or else you would have more of them.

�Most of the time I do. �I see your little peanut gallery snipes.
They usually lack substance and aren't worthy of a response.

That would be your opinion. I look at your excessive OT threads and
feel they also lack substance, especially when derived from such
blatantly biased people as Michelle Malkin.

You think wit can make up for lack of substance and knowledge.

Now you know what I think? LoL. No, I think wit can make a discussion
forum a much more interesting place to be. But exchanging information
should be a primary goal.

�I don't.



I prefer to discuss current political events.

That's nice, but there are forums designed for that.

� This forum has little to no audio discussion.

I participated in one yesterday.

Yet with Arny gone there is no one that is going to disrupt
anything the comes up on-topic.

The right people have to come back. You and Bratzi aren't enough to
attract them.

Meanwhile, everyone here engages in off-topic discussion.
Midiot does his silly sniping.
Jenn rants against Fox.
You get sprung over Palin.
Everyone here has started off-topic threads.
You've just decided you don't like the topics I raise
because they don't spawn nice friendly donut hole like
discussions. �Too bad.

It has nothing to do with OT discussions. Most of us have known each
other for many years, and it's perfectly natural to talk about other
topics. Excessively spamming the group with right-wing and nationalist
links is another story, It violates the Usenet charter.

Do you see the difference, or is your world still black and white?



You prefer donut holes and T-shirts.

To what, your excessive OT posting?

�LoL. �You're off-topic as much as anyone.
You just want to decide what is acceptably entertaining
to you and what isn't.

It's called an opinion. Hence, rec.audio.opinion. And my opinion that
excessive OT spamming hurts the group.

�Your complaints are hypocritical.

You're failing to understand my complaints, so your point is moot.




I don't find donut holes and T-shirts any more entertaining than the
childish ridicule and unsubstantiated insults but it is more tolerable

It doesn't matter what you think about donut holes and T-shirts. I had
a nice, friendly conversation with at least two other people here on a
subject we all found interesting.

�And I didn't interfere nor do I complain about it beyond pointing
out the hypocrisy of your complaints.

That's interfering. It also makes YOU the hypocrite, not me. (That's
not a IKYABWAI but simple logic.)


Evidently you are against nice,
friendly conversations or else you would have more of them.

That's a matter of perspective.

Who other than you thinks you have nice friendly conversations here?
Name one person. In other words, we're talking about YOUR prespective,
right?

You certainly aren't nice in a couple peoples perspective.

You mean people who tell lies about my family or write emails to my
business associates? You should know better than to make that comment.

But go ahead and be nice if you can. Unlike you, I won't try to stop
you.

I'm nice to more people here than you are.
