Petty Vandalism

by frustratedfan on Sep 26, 2006 2:24 PM CDT

Petty Vandalism is just that. It occurs when for no other reason than pure spite, a small minded person comes in and damages or destroys something just to damage or destroy it.

The problem is that if you know where the Vandal's live (1060west hint hint) it is possible to go over and defecate on their virtul lawn as well. Gaius is one, we are many. Wanna guess which blog can get completely burried. I suggest we give him one hour to stop and then. There is power in numbers.

Have we

lost our minds?

Violence only begets violence. Potray my words in a coward's manner, I see it nothing more as me going and doing something else, like, oh I don't know, GOING THE FUCK OUTSIDE AND DOING SOMETHING ELSE OTHER THAN QUIBBLING ON THE GOD DAMN INTERNET LIKE A STAR TREK NERD.

feel free

do your worst. it would be worth it to see confirmed that your degeneracy is no better than what i have been left. i, at least, have a purpose beyond mere spite.

delete my words, al. you know it is right to.

Purpose

As far as I can tell, your "purpose" is that you are jealous that Al has a more successful blog than yours which actually engenders a diversity of opinion. And so, instead of making your blog better (perhaps by respecting diversity of opinion) you have decided to crap all over this blog in hopes of destroying it.

And thus, absent a shun button, the only choices are to either let you crap all over the blog until it is destroyed, or take a proverbial baseball bat to your proverbial knees by destroying something that you love. And as far as we can tell, the only things that you love are yourself and 1060 West. And since we don't know where you are (and as that would be taking a literal baseball bat to your literal knees (and that's a crime) the only choice is 1060 West.

You are on notice.

So......

1 day of someone saying things that you don't like and this is how mad you get? Why not save your energy and turn it into something worthwile like banding together with other Cub fans to try and bring about some real change within the organization??

by PriorandAramisfan23 on Sep 26, 2006 2:42 PM CDT up reply actions

Because

he's an internet tough guy, dude. He'll kick your virtual ass if you talk to him like that again. Or, I mean, literally break your virtual knees I should say.

I need

my virtual knees, all the 'surfing' I do, can't afford to be messing around.

Yeah right...

...like that will happen PriorandAramisfan23.

Cubs fans will band together and change the organization from the inside.

Let me go get my drum and flute and we'll march on Wrigley at dawn.

Is there anything science can't do?

First they clone a sheep named Dolly, then they teach a jackass named Gaius how to type.

If you look around the world and look at all the people you know you'll see that the most ignorant people are also the ones who just aren't satisfied unless they have some sort of conflict going on in their lives, whether manufactured or real. And usually they are the root cause of the conflict.

The empty can rattles the most.

I'll pass..

That board's just an echo chamber for douchebags.

Forget Zito, Soriano, Schmidt, Matsuzaka & Lee. Its Eaton, Durham, Wood, Lofton, and a backup RH OF instead.

Polarity

It's funny, gaius and his ilk accuse the posters here of following an idiot king (no offense, Al)and falling in line with his views and we think of them the same way, just with negative views and boycott theories.

As Al has stated many times, I'd rather understand that the Cubs need to improve and be optimistic that change can and will happen, than to understand the Cubs need to improve but be so negative about the club so as to take all joy out of watching the game.

If that makes me one of Al's minions, so be it.

Gaius is a narcissistic cry baby who took his ball and went home when he realized that not everyone here was going to bow down and kiss his hairy ass just because he has a large vocabulary and condescending tone.

by Scott @ Bleed Cubbie Blue on Sep 26, 2006 3:46 PM CDT up reply actions

agreed...

...pervasive negativity accomplishes nothing, especially when you have no control over the situation.

I love BCB. And there's an eclectic mix of many different opinions here, we're all not just a bunch of kool-aid swillers.

Reading 1060 you would think this page is nothing more than a compendium of opinions hawking the company line and that does not criticize the team when it is merited, when that is clearly not the case.

I still stand by my opinion that if the Cubs win the World Series under Jim Hendry and MacPhail and the Trib (unlikely, but hey, Cubs's fans are born dreamers), the only miserable people in Chicago will be White Sox fans, and those over at 1060 west.

This board's a lot more diverse

than several I've visited... It doesn't have a bunch of Moneyballers ready to gangbang anyone w/ a differing opinion,,,, aka stupid/moronic/idiotic/asinine opinion.

Let's Rumble...

I think it is the only way. We'll be labeled the Soc's because obviously they are the conniving dirty Greasers.

This will be fun. They'll be no Internet "tough guys"...we'll all meet at the old oak tree 15 minutes after the last bell. We, the Soc's, will wear red while 1060, the greasers, will wear black.

No weapons of any kind, other than condescending and abusive words plus our fists. We shall determine the True Champion.
