When I flame, I burn, baby!
Feb. 17th, 2002 10:09 amOver in alt.conspiracy, we are having the semi-annual "Nobody went to the Moon" debate. As usual, the pro-Hoax people are trotting out all the discredited claims we've seen before. The sane people are responding as we always do, with actual facts and references.
But this time, some thin new has been added. A complete moron who doesn't know the first bloody thing about space flight has entered the fray, spouting off complete nonsense left and right about cosmic rays, the Moon's far side and other things which no one can comprehend.
At first, I treated him with my usual politeness. I try to rise above the level of usual discourse on alt.conspiracy, which mostly involves accusing people of being government agents, or Jews, or masons... or all threes. Needless to say, when you have a group frequented by actual Nazis, Godwin's Law goes right out the window.
But I finally tired of the idiot. After he responded to a reasoned post with this crack about alien technology and Nazis, I let loose. Enjoy!

Certainly! You are a complete moron who would lose a battle of wits
with a tree-sloth. Your greatest career ambition is to say "would you
like fries with that" without drooling. The day you have something
interesting to add to a discussion will be they day the Winter
Olympics are awarded to Hell. Get it?
Now, just because I'm bored, and need to be amused, I shall dangle
some idiot bait: what alien technology did the Nazis have? Figure we
had radar first, jet aircraft were invented by the Brits and the
Soviets had the most combat effective tanks of the war! I am waiting
in nipple-tingling anticipation of your next painful effort to both
remember how to type and all those words the made you learn in your
*special* class.
Damn, I'm good.
