Must say lord I found you funnier on GMK. Whilst in the height of pontifying about how much more intelligent GMK members are in comparison to SBT members. A bloke called mole came up with quite an intelligent witty comment to support your opinion.

Unfortunately he was a little too sharp for you and you mistook his comment as him having a go at you.

You then had a pop at him. Which I must say was very ironic and amusing in the middle of a discussion about how intelligent GMK posters are.

I assume that most people understood your post to mean you have heard there will be a statement but you do not believe it will happen. As oppose to a pointless post like

SISU will spend a billion this summer




Yeah right.

Bit to warm for fish and chips, unless you're doing the fish on the BBQ, lovely.

Man One "I think that swimming in man-eating shark infested waters whilst bleeding profusely from a leg wound is perfectly safe"

Man Two "I disagree, think it might be quite dangerous"

Man One "WUM"

I was using it literally as in "Wind Up Merchant". I find your posts amusing sometimes, but I'm a bit pissed off that I spent time looking through the paper for something that wasn't there...you wound me up, well done, but please at least be decent to admit you were on a "Wind Up", and therefore WUMMING!

I seriously wasn't though, thought it was obvious not to be taken seriously with my comment at the end of it.

As if Hoffman would be making any kind of statement!

Though to be fair often look through the CT for things that aren't there too, any semblance of news and journalism for a start.

Well yeah, that's why I got a bit excited. Fair enough though, if you thought it was obvious enough. Just remember for some of us we're reading things bleary eyed at work, and might miss the subtleties!

Looking again-the "disclaimer" was right at the bottom, and at least 7 of the first 8 posters in the thread clearly did not take it as a "disclaimer". How it reads is "the rumour has been said to me as true, however my opinion is that it's a load of old crap, believe it when I see it.".

Rather than "Hoffman to make statement"......."not really! As if that would happen!"

I don't mind looking a bit stupid, but we all know that OSB isn't, and he was taken in by it!

I think we probably need to somewhat ironically put it all down to "miscommunication", something we are quite familiar with, after all.

Exactly what I thought, I assumed he was passing on a genuine rumour he had heard but didn't believe himself.

Seriously if you lack reading comprehension and thought that post was genuinely saying Hoffman was making a statement. You deserve all the wasted time and disappointment coming your way.

I'm really sorry if that sounds harsh. But seriously, it says more about the tendency of this board to believe anything like that unquestionably than anything else.

Just a bit of a shit joke really, it is snowing outside



Not....

However people as intelligent as the lord have humour on a higher level, none of this waynes world stuff.

I read it as 'I have heard the hoff is going to put out a statement, however I don't believe it will happen' I wasted 1 minute looking on Twitter then thought nah it is crap.

To then be called a dunce because I did not have the brain to work out it is a joke.

From as I have previously pointed out, a bloke who can't work out if people are supporting his opinion or against it. Whilst having a debate about intelligence
I found quite funny to say the least.

Lord your joke was funny on many levels and definately not straight out of play school



Yeah right.

That's what you'd like to think.

Something that can be done on here, rather than the whining emoting that goes on on SBT.

We're the Dawkins rational branch, SBT are the unhinged fundamentalist Tea Party of Coventry City Fandom.

Reply by a bloke called mole


Have you read anything about the Dunning-Kruger Effect? It's essentially a cognitive bias in which unskilled individuals suffer from illusory superiority, mistakenly rating their ability much higher than average. This bias is attributed to a metacognitive inability of the unskilled to recognize their mistakes.

Or, some people are too stupid to realise just how stupid they are.

Not really, but i can copy and paste the exact words from a Wikipedia article to give the illusion of intelligence and independent thought if you like?

Do need to ask you lord. When you are in gmkonline. Referring to people on skybluestalk as fundamentalists.

You say WE are the Dawkins rational branch. However you post on both sites. Bit of a contradiction going on

Nothing at all wrong with posting on both sites, you surely have to admit that hysteria is generally the order of the day here, just look at most of the posts.

What is weird is searching on other sites for people though.
