Default Question for Witlessmongrel



Shhhh! said:

Whose fault is it that you're an idiot?


I'm not saying it's your own fault. For all I know, you were born the
way we find you now. I'm sure there's something wrong with you
organically, either something congenital or something that, uh, happened
to you.


The reason I ask is you keep complaining that Normals want to muzzle or
censor you. You also keep whining when we complain about your stupid
yapping. Whine, whine, whine. Yap, yap, yap. Regardless of how you
choose to interpret our comments about your stupidity, we are not trying
to shut you up. We are trying to motivate you to think about what you're
saying. At least a little. Admittedly, nobody has succeeded at all yet.
But the same thing keeps happening every time you get into an argument:
Somebody tries to drag you toward the light of truth, and you run away
bitching and name-calling.


We can't help believing if, instead of making noise all the time, you
took a moment to reflect on what's being said to you, that you might
actually absorb a little insight. That's why we tell you you're being
stupid. And yes, I am speaking for many RAOers, despite your desperate
desire to deny it.


Excellent post, George.


Thank you, Shhhh.

I think, however, that you've used words that
are going to be over 2pid's head. I saw several three (and even a few
four) syllable words.


Uh-oh. Right you are. My bad.

Please consider your audience in the future.


Many of us have made the same mistake. You know how it is -- you get
caught up in your own train of thought, and you forget that the
individual you're trying to instruct in self-improvement is an imbecile.

I have a proposal for this situation. We Smart Guys should review each
other's "Scottie can do better" posts. When the reviewer notes a word
that is likely beyond Scottie's language skills, he or she should post a
reply with definitions (or links to definitions) of the questionable
word(s). In this case, the first reviewer would be you, and you would
then make a post like this:

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

organically (adv): as an important constituent; "the drapery served
organically to cover the Madonna"

congenital (adj): relating to a condition that is present at birth

interpret (vt): to give or provide the meaning of

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =

Of course, these aren't the only definitions of the polysyllabic words I
used. However, when you're talking to Scottie, it's best to restrict his
field of vision by giving only the definition that fits the context.


If you and other volunteers would like to participate, we can work
together to help Scottie get a little smarter, or at least act a little
smarter.
