Do you ever refrain from commenting on a post because the original poster is an asshole?


It happened 3 times for me today. One of them had a decent topic that even I agreed with, but didn't want to bother in case they started with their usual numbskullery.

ASK THE COLLECTION OF ASSHATS...I ENJOY ENGAGING WITH THE SCUM...HALF THE TIME THEY BLOCK ME...I CONTINUE POSTING...THEY JUST CAN'T SEE IT.πŸ™‚

reply

Yes. I think you have to here. Sometimes I'll reply even if the original poster is nuts. Thats just if I'm bored, and in the mood to argue.

reply

I'm never in the mood to argue. Do you know how much energy that requires?

reply

ARE YOU KIDDING?...I WOULD NEVER MISS OUT ON ONE OF YOUR POSTS.

reply

Blushing.

reply

all the time.

reply

There are only a handful of posters I want nothing to do with...'Assholes' is a pretty good term for that small bunch

But if someone responds with something clever or humorous within the OP I'll respond to that person's post even if the OP is often a jerk

There is one that I've been avoiding for a while, I wont name names as that would be 'flaming' or bad manners but holy Moses! I cannot wade through this one's mile-long posts full of random capitalizations, sanctimony, bold face-type, nonsense links and off-topic citations...

This one is a Bot or a homebound mental patient, I'll bet you a buck

reply

What if that original poster is a huge fan of winter and hates the band KISS?

reply

Oh, right
I forgot about that weirdo, thanks for reminding meπŸ™„

reply

he/she/it's my one and only block.

i hate that prick.

reply

I fully understand the blocking in this case, it's an unreadable, unbearable presence here and lacks any sort of humor or honesty

reply

he's the worst!

reply

I'm with you on this - I know exactly which one you mean.

reply

Haven't really been here long enough to know who the assholes are. I enjoy coming here and most people I've encountered are cool.

reply

Watch out for this one. https://moviechat.org/user/5b9711e1b0247400144d732f

I know I'm not the only one that hates him.

reply

he never comes here. he likes to fight about everything and anything.

reply

I realized that a few months back.

reply

Yeah, "hate, hate, hate", you creep! That word is so prevalent in your posting history when it comes to other people here and it seems you've found the perfect platform for expressing that hatred and simultaneously being a sickening attention whore. Go figure.

reply

I'm not the only person who has called The Argentinian out. As a matter of fact, I've seen people do it to you as well. I recall 4 separate people telling you that you need to lighten up a few weeks ago.

Also TheArgentinian was the only person I used the word "hate" toward. Not sure how you think it's prevalent in my posting history toward other people.

reply

As a matter of fact, here it is.

reply

There's no real comparison. I've always been upfront about being occasionally abrasive, even combative with certain posters, but I challenge you to go through my posting history and find the word "hate" as often as it comes up in yours, when it comes to other people. And btw, you've never once tried to refute me when I've referred to you as a "misanthrope"!

Why would I? I've often said on this site that I avoid people. You're actually proof of the people I try to avoid and yet you scratch your head why I do that.

I challenge you to go through myq posting history and find the word "hate" as often as it comes up in yours when it comes to other people.

Other than TheArgentinian, show me a post where I said I hated someone on this site. Bands and movies, yes. But I've never said that I hate another user. Show me the posts. It should be easy for you since you said it was so prevalent.

reply

Aww, muddy the waters some more, you snake! Avoiding people ( I do that too with some) and expressing hatred for them, are two different things.

reply

Yes, they are two separate things. But you said that the word "hate" is prevalent in my post history when it's directed at other people on this site. Please, I beg you to show me these alleged posts.

reply


That never bothers me. In fact, that's usually a reason to respond, to take the asshole down a few pegs!

Thank you for doing the dirty work.

reply


You're welcome. It's a dirty job, but someone's got to do it. Besides, sometimes I'm the asshole.

Did you send that by accident?

Nope.

Uuuhm...no, of course not! I just wanted to show I don't refrain from commenting even when the OP is an asshole!😬
