can you seriously not read through this thread and see what everyone is trying to say? wow you really have issues if you cant...unless of course you're just trolling which you are

I mean McDanger, agentlion and wlb420 were at least capable of conversation...even if they didnt agree with my points, they didnt have any problem understanding me

What point are you trying to make? I can't tell if you have refuted or agreed with what McDanger and others have said.

Why is this such a hard concept for you to reply to? I ask a simple question, and you think I am trolling? Just say what you have to say.

agentlion dominated you right after your first entry into the thread. I asked you to support your claims. And I dominated you with that topic.

You haven't made any points.

There is nothing on the first page.

But feel free to call me stupid. Everyone else here is getting a good laugh out of our battle. The only thing I am being stupid about, is actually expecting you to know what the hell you are talking about.

Thats clearly not the standard at all. Thats the rebuttal that owns each and every one of you that tries the bald dis.

Its everything top to bottom. I mean people can live their life however the hell they want to, I don't give even 1/10 shit. I use this place mostly for entertainment at work and will attempt to rattle a poster when I feel their logic or their rationale is a bit flawed (some kids call it trolling) or in some cases when these guys are exhibiting the typical message board monkey behavior then I won't hesitate to talk shit.

But I think you guys going out of your way to have tons and tons of user names, begging for their originals to be unlocked/unsuspended, bending over backwards on shit like this bald thing (if its still funny to you guys you are more pathetic than I thought) is about as lame as it gets, it speaks volumes about your maturity level (who will be the first to point out the irony/hypocrisy)? I tried on multiple occasions to let bygons be bygons (sp?) to scrumples and various other people but there is just something they can't stand about me that keeps them trying and trying. Jealousy? Surely you'll dismiss this statement too. I dunno what it is. I think from this point forward though I'm just not gonna respond to any of it as its tired and boring for me. I would hope for all the other good folks of the board that you are no doubt annoying by spreading my pic everywhere you could stop (not that I give a fuck). I asked if you are going to troll me at least try to come up with something troll worthy. My game is air tight apparently as no one can be original about anything.

This is ground hog day all over again. I knew without a shadow of a doubt that this would be your standard reply. Thaks for proving additional points I make (oh dear me, will you follow this post up with a "nope" as proof I just said somethin stupid?).

Quote :
"you seem to think that there are some kind of rules that i have to say something worthwhile or prove something or actually bother you"

Its funny when you actually do type more than three words it becomes readily apparent the death to which you think critically. I asked you to prove how I post stupid shit, and you are ranting about how you don't have to post much to be a nuisance. Can you even understand what you read. Since you have stated plainly you aren't trolling then the logical conclusion is you are a dumbass.

You claiming I say stupid trollworthy stuff when the rest of the board if they really gave a shit would plainy see otherwise always has been and always will be quite laughable.

The dumbest thing I have done here is engage in any kind of discourse with as big a peice of shit as you.

What was "my help"?

I attempted to try and discern what argument you were trying to make.

It seems as though you were saying the racism has scientific foundations.

I asked for you to support that statement, because after all, I don't really think a pot headed idiot like you has enough reputation to just make the statements. That, and thats all you ever do here is making statements without any real basis.

You refused to provide any sort of basis for racism being the same as ageism, other than your opinion that isn't rooted in anything other than your idiocy. If you wanted to leave it at that, thats fine, I wouldn't have pressed the issue.

But when pressed, you eventually devolve the thread like you always do, into shit.

If other people were posting more, I'd over look your crap, but since you do such a good job of pushing them out with your noise, it's hard to ignore you. Especially when I am bored.

so you have to come on a message board to realize your self esteem?

wow thats pathetic

almost as pathetic as firing a 60 year old to hire a 22 year old just because the 60 year old would deserve a higher salary and your company would rather maximize profits even if it meant decreasing efficiency and generally shitting on longtime employees who have given the majority of their lives to your company

Oh, so your opinion is based on the "common sense" you think you have. Is that much like your racism?

Clearly, a profit driven company knows a fuck ton more than you do when it comes to running their business. And you wonder why people think you're and idiot.

^so you dont think someone with tons of on-the-job experience might be better at that job than some youngster fresh out of school? unless you're talking about a job like a pro athlete I don't see how that is even debatable (and even still golf, pitcher in baseball...younger doesnt always =! better)

^ it's a case for cost-benefit analysis.

for example:
If someone has been on a job for 30 years, taking raises every year, he might be getting paid 2-3 times what a new employee (with a modern degree) is getting, plus he might be getting payments towards a pension or something (which a new employee wouldn't get), and his employee sponsored health care costs are skyrocketing because he's in the prime age group for diabetes, cancer, and heart desiese.

So, they could ditch the old fogie, hire 2 new grads with MS degrees for the same cost or less, spend a 6 months on training and turtorship, and within a year the two of them are 1.5 times as productive as the old guy. Plus their modern engineering educations allow them to quickly pick up new skills, and since they are young and in shape, their health care is cheap. The only long term commitment by the company in these guys is a 3% match on their 401(k)s, a drop in the bucket compared to a lifetime pension of an old guy.

Apparently, fortune 250 companies think so also. I'd say it is brilliant, and you're left holding the idiot bag again.

The most productive, valuable employees for a company are the ones in their 30s. If the organization is not on the cutting edge or the leader of anything, an older work force is acceptable.

16-22 are the prime mating ages for humans
13-23 are the ages of peak reflexes among males
15-20 are the ages biological adulthood is reached

So agism is a problem and the only reason america has so many laws in place is because grade school happens to end when you are 18 but that has nothing to do with how developed the mind is, its just our society.

Basically, full adulthood is reached somewhere between 15-20 depending on the individual.

Because you are the only one in the thread that disagreed with McDanger. Why would I respond to people I agree with?

I know it pains you to see your stupidity and lunacy called out on a thread by thread basis. It's not trolling. Trolling would be the shit you did posting some old bullshit from some other thread from years ago. Thats trolling. You just make it painfully and terribly obvious that you aren't capable here. You're calling into question the decision of a large publicly traded company to improve their bottom line like you know more than they do.

I can't help that you automatically take the opposing position in any thread you post in, and get summarily made an ass clown each and every time.

But I'll assure you, it isn't trolling. You're just an easy target is all.

wrong.

for one thing, the brain doesnt stop developing until early-mid twenties, perhaps even as late as thirty.

its not uncommon that full capacity for abstract thought isnt reached until mid-to-late twenties.

just because your sexual peak hits around 18, doesnt mean you know what the fuck youre doing.
