Delete Comments So People Won't Know You Were Stupid

Published on June 23, 2006 By Ionolast In Blogging

On EOIC's thread hereLink, comment #38, lw wrote,"Simon was the Penultimate, tongue-speaking, foot-stomping, slain-in-the-spirit Pentacostal for five years"

Comment #41 by Satan's Advocate: "And not to be an English major, but you're misusing penultimate unless you're trying to say he was a shitty Pentecostal."

I wrote, "Penultimate means next to the last."

Satan's Advocate wrote, "In my book, next to the last is a pretty shitty position." (That's close enough.)

Now those last two comments are gone and again I've been blacklisted from his blog.

IN don't blacklist anyone permanently, so I can't really speak for why someone does it. I don't believe anyone is really going to believe that you didn't understand what was being said. You were just being nitpicky and facetious, and now you try to act innocent and point to a dictionary.

You could at least admit to it. The need to keep pounding on the silly idea that you didn't understand kind of validates the reasons to blacklist you. There doesn't seem to be much hope after all, lol.

I don't think you blacklisted me for a valid reason.

I don't think there has to be a valid reason. I could blacklist someone just because I don't like their avatar or because I don't like screen names that start with the letter R.

I BL'ed you because you said something wretched about someone I like (and also because you're generally an unpleasant guy to deal with). The only thing that makes me want to give you a chance is the fact that you're friends with someone that I hold in VERY high esteem.

If he likes you, there's gotta be a good reason for it.

PS - That. That. That. That. That.

I'm serious. I wouldn't have posted that comment otherwise. I honestly don't know of another definition. Do you?

How did you know?

I'm mysterious.

I'm mysterious.

I suspect the two of you have communicated through email.

blacklisting is done out of fear of opposing comments?

No, sometimes it's just to banish an asshole from your threads.

No, sometimes it's just to banish an asshole from your threads.

Sometimes, an asshole is just someone you disagree with.

I have never blacklisted anyone I disagreed with, just assholes.
