Despite the less than enthusiastic crowd response, Slipp, undaunted, tries again a month later.....Sickdrjoe's "What in the name of all that is HOLY is WRONG with you" is one of those classic responses - the "shot heard 'round the world" in the Slipp Annals. It also, in 13 concise words, sums up the response all of us have had to Slipp in the intervening five years. (Slipp's immediate reaction - "What do you mean, what's wrong with me?" etc. - was for a long time my sign-off signature on this forum. So now you know the context in which it originated).
JULY CHALLENGE:
Topic: It's that time of the month again...
ISLIPP Posted - 1 July 2001 0:33
Happy July 1st, everybody! Exactly one month ago,
I started a challenge to everyone to do something
crazy (and now, non-violent) in public that the
Stooges did in public AND tell us all about it- OR
if you've already done it, tell us about that.
Being that this is a new month, here is a new
challenge....
Drum roll please....
to do as Larry did in some shorts- sprinkle some
liquid in your hair (it's okay if you use water,
but wouldn't it be nice if whoever sees you
doesn't know that?) and work it in like shampoo.
This is something you might want to prepare for
in advance. As Moe said in "I Can Hardly Wait",
"That's all. Have no fear."
ISLIPP- after I skinny DIPP.

WHAT in the name of ALL THAT IS HOLY is WRONG
with you?

NoseHonk Posted - 1 July 2001 1:12
Hehe, I can see myself doing stuff like that to
my little bro, but other than that...I'd rather
NOT be arrested.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ISLIPP Posted - 1 July 2001 1:54
I said do it to YOURSELF! What do you mean
"What's wrong with me?" What do you mean
"arrested"? I didn't say do it to someone else!
What's illegal about doing this to YOURSELF?
ISLIPP- but I won't FLIPP! ¨2001

NoseHonk Posted - 1 July 2001 2:14
PUBLIC DRUNKINESS!!!!!
HARASSING THE PUBLIC!!!
ETC!!! SEE? SAW!!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sickdrjoe Posted - 1 July 2001 2:17
Look, Slipp, I can't speak for anybody else, but
to me there's something....I dunno....RETARDED
about these 'challenges'. It's like you're
saying, "jump through these hoops and prove
you're WORTHY of enjoying the Three Stooges".
Nobody over the age of ten could conceivably feel
this way, OR do these things you suggest. Enough
with these farshimmelt challenges already!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ISLIPP Posted - 1 July 2001 3:58
I'm not saying to prove you're worthy of
ANYTHING. And what do you mean public drunkiness?
Did I say to drink ANYTHING at all? NO! And how
is it harassing the public when YOU ARE NOT
TOUCHING THEM OR DOING ANYTHING "TO" THEM.
Listen all, this is just for fun, to see how the
public in REAL LIFE would react to the LEGAL (and
now non-violent) antics of the Stooges.
This is only as RETARTED as your latest quiz
thread, sickdrjoe. (No insult intended).

Tsk, tsk, Slipp...so many enemies, so little
time.
This is why I lose patience with you in the first
place. Your idea of 'tolerance' is 'if I say
something wrong/foolish, pretend it's not, or
you're mean and hateful and I'll retaliate for
days and days.' a/k/a 'Two and two is SO five!'
a/k/a 'I know YOU are, but what am I?'
By the way, you're really starting to sound
shrill here. As you can see, it's NOT just me
anymore; after your grandstanding of the other
day, demanding I apologize to half the
people in the Manhattan white pages, so far
you've gotten ZERO support; indeed, you're
lashing out at more and more people than ever.
Take a deep breath, calm down, and grow up a
little. These 'challenges' really ARE a stupid
idea, honest.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Squid McGuffey Posted - 1 July 2001 5:28
Slipp, the jerk store called and said they were
running out of you!
Also the Wal-Mart pharmacy called to apologize
for sending Viagra in place of your prozac and
librium. However it doesn't seem that either one
works.
Given the title of this thread you need some
Pamprin.

You went and got me all mad.

Why is everyone ganging up on SLIPP all of a
sudden? Doc, your input of this board has always
been very insightful, but it seems like all of
your recent posts have been personal attacks on
this guy. While the both of you are guilty of
instigating senseless arguements, this latest
attack was unprovoked. This whole "feud" is
pretty stupid, even more so because it involves
two very intelligent ADULTS.
As for the monthly challenge, I just might try
it.
A bottle of hot sause should do wonders for those
split ends...
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ISLIPP Posted - 1 July 2001 12:41
Thanx Senorita! Woud this be worth reviving
August 1st?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sickdrjoe Posted - 1 July 2001 12:56]
Rita, I have what I think are valid reasons...but merely
enunciating them makes me -to some- guilty of fanning
the flame and precipitates more of those shrill 'Stop
it, you two, STOP IT!!' posts that I find most
irritating of ALL.
Now YOU answer ME one: why is Slipp always forgiven HIS
trespasses (in fact, they're neither noticed OR
acknowledged) by the very same people who publicly fret
over my failings of forum etiquette? And please, don't
demean both our IQ's by pretending, "Why, no, if he
steps out of line, I'm the first to.." Well, no, you're
NOT; not the first to, the second to, or the fifty-ninth
to, for that matter. It's always ME (and lately, Squid)
to whom that onerous task falls. I happen to know, FOR A
FACT, there are a few regulars out there who share my
tepid enthusiasm for Slipp's antics, but leave it to
others to play The Bad Guy. I don't damn them for it,
but merely point out that this situation, in truth,
exists.
Another point - Earlier in my tenure here, I had a
set-to with Squid McGuffey that was far more heated than
these trivial smock-smock battles with Slipp. After some
initial bad blood & ruffled feathers, we shook hands
like adults and, over time, have grown genuinely
friendly in our back-and-forth postings. There have been
near-skirmishes with a few others, all of which were
smoothed out to everyone's satisfaction and are now far
off memories. Perhaps the fact that none of THESE people
saw fit to post crocodle-tear-stained promises to cease
hostilities and shoehorn in ONE LAST pea-shooter blast
as postscripts to these posts, EVERY DAMN TIME, may have
something to do with it. This might SEEM ultra-ornery of
me, but I respect a guy who tells you to go f**k
yourself FAR MORE than one whose responses all revolve
around what a genuinely good, blameless, Christian
sweetheart of a guy he really is, and then fires one
last dart at you before disappearing being some adult's
protective petticoat - I find such tactics intolerably
offensive. You know, you CAN verify all of this with
your own two eyes if you'd care to LOOK - but too many
of you 'peaceniks' choose to only pretend to look, as a
courtesy; your minds are otherwise made up, on the
puerile side of 'niceness at all costs.'
In other words: don't ask for proof, and then roll your
eyes in annoyance when I provide scads of it!

no wrong. You got called, sickdrjoe, because you were

TO: ISLIPP and sickdrjoe
I REALLY am trying to understand why anybody is ganging
up on anybody. I have been a regular poster here for
sometime. I have enjoyed many of the posts from BOTH
ISLIPP and sickdrjoe. What I hate seeing are two people,
who both share an enthusiasm for the Stooges, constantly
tearing each other down. It's really pointless who
started all of this. It takes one MAN to end it. All
this fighting between the two of you does a BIG
disservice to the memory of the Stooges. The point of
this Forum is for all of us to celebrate our love of the
boys with other fans. If ISLIPP and sickdrjoe can't stop
fighting for the sake of themselves, or the other
posters, could they at least do it for the memory of the
Stooges. I sure hope so. I can't speak for everyone, but
with all I know about you two so far, I like you. I hope
two Stooges fans as dedicated and educated as you two,
can iron out your difference. This whole ordeal is WAY
beneath the both of you. I wish you luck in any attempts
to work things out with each other.
I try to play peacemaker, then I. . .
Keep On Stoogin'!

That's cool, sickdrjoe. I was only hoping for the best
for yourself, ISLIPP and the Forum. As I said earlier, I
like both of you and I REALLY look forward to MANY more
posts from the both of you.
Please boys. . .

Glad to be liked, Hammond! Look, I wasn't even remotely
trying to re-start any feud between myself and
sickdrjoe. I was telling it like it is. That's all. He's
so upset because he gave in to me at the end of the
feud, and that I even get the girls at the end (in a
manner of speaking)! Now, I'm perfectlty willing to
co-exsist with that guy, that if he's a real Dr., got
his Phd in a cereal box if he's willing to co-exsist
with this guy, who SLIPPs up and freely admits it. By
the by, how can you fight for the Stooges? I suppose you
can keep up the ratings of N.Y.U.K.. There's not much
else.

Keep dreaming, you insignificant little pipsqueak. I'll
be six feet deep in the cold, cold ground before the day
I give in EVER dawns on the Pampers-swaddled likes of
you. Up to your old tricks, I see - taking your little
'cute' shots and crossing your heart that you've been
terribly misunderstood.
F*ck you and the tricycle you rode in on, Slipp. Behind
that harmless-simpleton mask you wear is a deeply
disturbed, sneaking little rat AND a simpleton. Put THAT
in iambic pentameter and ram it up between your turds.

that. I thought our feud was over. I thought you said
you were exhausted. Do me a favor and STAY exhausted.
I'm having enough trouble with a certain little "squid"
lately without you sounding off.

Man, I misse alot today! Anyway SLIPP, if yoiu saw
someone walking down the streets of any downtown area,
Denver, Detroit, etc. and putting hot sauce in their
head, what in god's name would you think of them?
Personally, I'd be thinking that he/she's been spending
a little too much time with Mr. Smirnoff.
And who knows, what if you were putting honey in your
hair and a sworm of bees see you as a giant walking
flower?
I wasn't really bashing you SLIPP. I was really kidding
around for the most part. i feel you were justified to
be angry at SDJ at first, but now it seems your taking
every little thing as an insult.
DAYUM!.....reminding me of my little bro!

ISLIPP Posted - 1 July 2001 23:31
Okay, Nose- why don't you and sickdrjoe tell me when he

quarrels started, then I guess it means that I don't
know how to deal with a person of his type.

When he posts something that doesn't involve you in any
way, shape, or form, and you blast him.
You have BOTH been out of line a couple times during
this whole thing. Christ, have either of you seen THE
REF? cuz this reminds me alot of that movie.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
sickdrjoe Posted - 2 July 2001 1:6
Yeah, THE REF is pretty funny. Definitely the highlight
of Denis Leary's 15 minutes.
Love the scene where he tries to phone his friend Harry
in a bar.
Now I wanna make a confession. It's beginning to dawn on
me that I can have edifying and entertaining
conversations with everybody here REGARDLESS of age,
gender or political affiliation except for Slipp. It's
like I involuntarily go into a fighting crouch whenever
he enters the conversation. (Until today, I'd NEVER
snapped at Sweet Canadian Girl, EVER! But she felt
constrained to go to bat for Slipp and that pushed my
buttons without me even thinking twice.)remember, weeks
ago, Gimmi goin' off on somebody or other, and citing
the kind of kid who only took a shot at you when his
mommy was around to protect him, and smirked at you
while hiding behind her dress, so that you COULDN'T mop
up the floor with him?
Well, it's like that. I DON'T LIKE THIS GUY. And it's
too late to pretend I ever could at this point. I COULD
co-exist with him, but every time the dust settles and
calm is restored, he 'tests the water' by lobbing a
little dart over, then feigning shocked innocence: I
HATE THAT KIND OF SH*T! The 'peaceniks' here who try to
chide us BOTH only end up enabling and emboldening him
further.
Eventually - since I know me - I'll just end up
abandoning this goddamn board entirely. Ever hear of
Gresham's Law?
That's the law that states that eventually, the bad
drives out the good in an unregulated arena; Slipp is
this principle made flesh. To me, he's a time-released
version of Ward Robey, a virtual-reality Chinese water
torture, the 62 Mets of human beings. (No, wait, the 62
Mets were LOVABLE.)
Let me close by giving you a PERFECT ILLUSTRATION of the
Slipp Principle. Most of you know I came here AFTER
posting for months on Rob Davidson's site
(threestooges.net). I've been off Rob's site for a few
weeks while he's been updating and revamping the
interface (it looks great, by the way). So today I go to
see if it's fully operational and I see that Slipp has
begun appearing there, in a post entitled 'The Slippman
Cometh'. Now, remember, though my posts are all over the
place there, there hasn't been a NEW one from me in
WEEKS. Well, right there in Slipp's FIRST post - a
WARNING TO ME TO LAY OFF! Right out the goddamn box,
practically the first words out of his mouth! So, though
he SEEMS to be a harmless idiot to most of YOU GUYS, I
see him and turn red. He's a little sneak and the KIND
of sneak that'll set your house on fire and then put on
an innocent-little-kid face. I don't like him, because I
see him for what he is. And I'd put NOTHING past him.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ISLIPP Posted - 2 July 2001 3:56
sickdrjoe, I can't believe this! Please quit thinking
that when I say that, It's a warning. What it is (and
all it is) is a request for peace- a request to put all
the crap behind us. How would you suggest I word it?
It's obvious neither of us will ever be able to stop
taking each others words the wrong way. Oh well.

Well, this state of affairs can't continue indefinitely,
since sooner or later some representative of C3 is bound
to step in and ban us BOTH. Actually, I'm out on the
thin edge of the wedge of not caring anyway: you may
well end up 'winning' via my leaving permanently, Slipp.
I'm too old for this name-calling nonsense in the first
place, nor am I particularly skilled at the trivia
quizzes that seem to be taking over the board. Frankly,
there's less and less substance here, and more and more
brawling and minute hair-splitting. I regret that I'll
be forever associated with the brawling, but you can't
make what's done magically unhappen, so I'll have to
live with that, I guess. I would ask my friend Squid
McGuffey to not waste valuable time and effort
participating in a feud that, once the shouting dies
down, is as unrepresentative of HIM as it is of ME,
though I appreciate his laying down a covering fire. At
the end of the day, Slipp, you're not worth the
expenditure of this much venom. The only thing I ask is
- if I end up calling it a day here - for once in your
life, be a mensch and don't insult me in my absence like
you did the last time - which helped lead us to this
pass in the first place. As for me, I'm SO sick and
tired of being The Bad Guy here, you have no idea.

I won't say another negative word to you or about you,

there'll be no trouble. If I'm ever aggrivated by any
comment you make, I'll ignore it, okay?
Squid is a different story. Sickdrjoe, his main purpose
isn't going to bat for you, but to annoy me for NO
reason. If it seems like he's backing you up to do YOU a
favor, forget it. My whole life, people have wanted to
start fights with me. I just don't know why. Even here
on the forum, where I can't be seen, it happens. It must
be a curse.
