Hi Eric, you're a fucking idiot (from threestooges.com):

I’m sorry. I meant jrvass, not JazzBill. But JazzBill made a joke about it. Did he get swayed too?

Thank goodness this place isn’t like threestooges dot net. People are still jerks over there-- not just the moderators-- but a few other posters. Read the latest postings in the Ask Team Stooge thread. Here is what I would say to them:
----------------------------------
If you were all talking in person and one of you had a speech impediment, would you get a headache from hearing the talk? Would you blow him off and/or ignore him until he could speak right? If one of you were ugly, would you treat him the same way until they beautified themselves?
Let the administration have their rules and be sure to follow them, but let them do their job and come down on whoever they think needs to be dealt with. Just because those are their rules doesn’t mean that you have to adopt every single one of them for yourselves, making them pertain to your dealings with others.
Maybe one of you had something wrong with your legs or feet in your school days which made you walk and run awkward. Wouldn’t you still want to get in on the games that involve running? What if it was a P.E. class softball game and the teacher assigned captains and let the kids pick their own team members, and the awkward running kid stayed on the bench because they were treating him the same way until he could walk and run right? Have you thought that bam might have a physical or mental disability that is causing it? Maybe it’s a kind of disability that doesn’t go away and can’t be cured. Might he as well just avoid forums and e-mail because he doesn’t do well, while the rest of you live it up? Might a tramp that has no table manner as well just eat out of a garbage can until whoever takes time with him (and why should YOU bother, right?) can teach him or until he learns by observance while people get angry at him for staring? Or would you take pity on him and give him something good to eat or even just teach him the table manners? Not all tramps caused their own hardship. Maybe some were robbed or just had trouble with employment. The same goes for people with poor typing skills. Some didn’t have a good teacher or had comprehension problems. You just don’t know what the story is, but you ALWAYS act like EVERY SINGLE person with bad typing skills is just being carelss and lazy.
But hey, forget ’em and live it up. Who cares that you could’ve easily been in their shoes had things gone differently for you? Why should you feel fortunate just because of that? You aren’t in their shoes and that’s all that matters. Period. Right? So what if there is a story of Moe, one of the men you are all there as fans of, putting his arm around a mistreated black man in a racist locale? Surely that doesn’t mean the stooges wouldn’t think less of their fans who shun people who society deems undesireable, right? Nah, you’ve got it made in the shade and all that matters.
bam said "Sorry, I have lousy typing skills. Thats pretty much the way i type." He admitted his fault apologized for himself but does he get any credit for that? Nope. His "that’s just the way I..." comment could be spoken by any of the people in my previous examples. Everyone needs to feel accepted (their behavior is a different story, and naturally bad typing is not behavior-related). I would put my arm around a person of any race, financial state, level of typing skills, physical appearance, type of physical mobility, level of speaking skills, etc. The greatest typist in the world could be a big jerk or a message board troll or some other kind of undesireable person. A well-behaved and well-meaning person, Mr. JazzBill, is worth the trouble to decipher. If I had my own message board, ANY such person would be warmly welcomed and allowed to stay, unhassled.

Shame on JazzBill, Xraffle and Giff me dat fillem. The "Hoi Polloi" of the message board. The snobs. They weren’t that way in the beginning (and yes, I’ve been around the boards for a long time). Shemps#1’s preaching changed them as much as it changed Dunrobin and the "dearly departed" Pilsner Panther. One bad apple spoils a whole bunch. Shame on you all for comprimising your values to be and stay in the "high society" of the message board (please think about this before being offended or just dismissing it and you’ll see that I’m right).
Maybe I should make sure this message stays on the front page of this guestbook until they find out about it...
