Well, there goes my plans of ever getting a book published. Looks like I won't have time for it now.

I think that if we collected all his writings, we would be able to discern some prophetic wisdom from them. We could call it The Ramblings of the Mad Prophet User.

I was actually starting to miss you, Users. I was afraid that you had succumbed to the TimeCube's absorptive powers.

Hat! The trick is to believe the unexpurgated fish, for lo! the thinness of time is an angry bottle.

It's interesting that you guys' attempts don't come off, really. They sound like obvious nonsense. Yet users101's posts do sound as though there is real meaning there, just not something we're quite able to understand because we don't know enough of the context or something.
Of all the writers of nonsense verse in history, the only one who was ever any good at all was Lewis Carroll, I think. His is extremely good. All the rest are just stupid, that I've read. What on earth could the difference be there?
Anyway, I do find users101 interesting, but hope it's a real person, even one on drugs (as "users" might tend to hint), rather than just another boring old troll. I wonder if he/she/it let his/her/its mind clear, if the meaning of what he/she/it says would crystallize into something that could actually convey thoughts and ideas. That might be interesting to see.

I do believe, Anne Kate, that you would defend an incomprehensible poster even if they were standing right next to your computer chair, banging two bricks together into the sides of your head.
It's actually, sincerely one of the things I love about you.
(It means you'll stick up for me when I'm completely incomprehensible, though I'll probably link sarcastic and disparaging photos to myself because I won't be able to help it.)

Ralphie, I just feel a deep kinship with anyone who is genuinely weird. I'm grateful to them for it, and feel affection for them because of it. Normal people are much harder for me to relate to.
And Ralphie, I'll stick up for you anytime. Posts: 2843 | Registered: A Long Time Ago!

I think the fact that I posted a deliberately mispelled invitation to Users as a marriage proposal (which I unaccountably found brilliantly funny) proves I may or may not be in the weird catagory, too. Though like many of my kind, I tend to kick downward on the sliding scope of weirdness. It's the equivalent of saying, "Hey guys! I'm not a freak! What's going on in here?"

See, aka, I can't help but think less of posters like Users101 and monteverdi because they make no real effort to engage the rest of the world; their posts are almost entirely masturbatory, if not exhibitionist. They're standing on a soapbox at a busy corner and raving about dangerous carrots.

That's funny, Tom, because I still think of you as a staunch defender of the quality of the postings from deerpark27, which I see in the same exact light. *shrug back*

I find it truly tragic that nobody else on the planet will find these at all funny, and yet I will continue. As Jebus is my witness, I will continue until I stop laughing when I make them.

What's really funny is that right after my proposal, Tom used a specific word and was immediately followed by Papa "relieved this isn't an onanism thread" Moose.
You are truly a comic genious Ralphie getting those 2 to fall into your plan. Posts: 4625 | Registered: Jul 2002

Yeah, and I was gonna post something about whether or not if you got married you would be her master. I refrained.

The reason I forgive deerpark is that he basically treats his own little threads like they were a private "Orginal Potry" -- and, of course, he's talented. I'd probably be more tolerant of Users101 if he were more obviously trying to create and display art instead of just rambling insanely.

You guys are bringing down the quality of Hatrack. I'm an innocent bystander.
Anne Kate - I'm sorry, I tried to make another one, and I didn't laugh while doing it. The well has been taped.
Also, you don't have a subtle innuendo hidden somewhere in your name like zbator does. The magic is lost.
However, I will hit you up for an unfunny, but possibly charming smooch. I don't really think you can refuse.

Neither is Users101. I'm with Tom...silly is fine, and rambling tolerable...but pointless stream-of-conciousness parading as intellectual...something? Nuh-uh.

Did I miss something or is this Papa Moose an impostor? Only 5 posts? I'm a little suspicious about this...

Okay, as long as you aren't an evil impostor. I look forward to your 3000 post. You should definitely do something for it.
