Nostalgia

Remember this fine thread?

Someone reminded me of it.



That guy's a hall of famer. I wonder if he ever went toe-to-toe with the Troll of Sorrow. Maybe I should ask for a link.

History.

Googling "the fool" and "troll of sorrow" shows Matt Weiner once suspected they were the same.

I've asked, we'll see what happens.

Troll of Sorrow said...

Yeah it was so sad when Jeff died. I cried and cried and cried. Like a little baby.

Of all the ways to go it had to be auto asphyxiation for poor old Jeff! Yeah, the old gasper met his maker wearing a dress and with an 18 inch spiked dildo jammed up his ass. Oh well, to each his own.

I sure do miss that poor dead sonofabitch. Oh well he's worm food now. Time to move on!

Matt Weiner thought they were one and the same? You mean THE Matt Weiner?

But what credibility does Weiner have?

After all he's the same Weiner who attacked The Fool because the Fool had the temerity to claim that there were postmodernists who are anti-science (in response to a commenter who said he couldn't think of any).

The Fool's claim again: There are some postmodernists who are anti-science.

Does anyone other than Weiner (and the ignorant commenter The Fool was responding to) doubt that there are postmodernists who are anti-science?

Oh, that's perfect! That's exactly what I'm talking about. You're like the trolliest troll evah!

And the fact that I recognize that just makes me the hippest little hipster on the internet! I am so cool. I absolutely adore myself!

Have you acquired a fan, Mr. McG?

Substance McGravitas said...

Yes.

I doubt there are any actual post-modernists. I mean, c'mon.

A shame half the YouTub™ links are now NG.

And a shame I was posting from libraries then & couldn't have left more musical ugliness.

Down on the Upstroke!! Or vice versa.

The Fool said...

@zombie:

And you know what KIND of fan he is...

He's a troll!

The real question is, "Where did MzNicky" go?

I hope she's okay.

She once gave me a well deserved, though gentle, dressing down for slaggin' on the 'Boomers.

Substance McGravitas said...

Yeah, hope she's well.

The Fool said...

I think MzNicky is a bit of a cunt -- but I can see why you boys like her.

J Neo Marvin said...

The reference to "relativists" in the Crooked Timber thread suggests that The Fool and Tancred are the same guy, too.

Any search for Top Troll should include Augustine over at Respectful Insolence (where I sometimes lurk). Augustine has mastered the fine art of plausible deniability, and specialises in sneering at the evidence-based philosophy of the blog and of other commenters while never directly asserting a position of his own -- allowing him the "Ha ha, U R pwned" response when people try to argue with his implied position. He's a troll for connoisseurs.

Substance McGravitas said...

I can't find a good thread there. Does he get moderated out of existence?

lawnguylander said...

The Fool, troll of sorrow and whatever dude? All. One. Bro.

Smut Clyde said...

Try this thread.
You'll find others if you search for "orac augustine atheism" -- part of augustine's routine is to call RI an "atheist blog" (because of the emphasis on science), implying (but in a deniable way) that he himself is christian. Or failing that, search "orac augie".
