From a comment in the post about Nicole Kidman we find the following observation/statement from Bob:
Off the subject, if your blog subtitle is true (The musings, rantings, and general blitherings of a stressed-out housewife and working mother in Indianapolis.), maybe you need to reduce the on-line time and take care of your children instead.Just a suggestion.
I want you all to read this and think about it. I'll have something to say about it tonight after I've worked my 8 hours as the sole support of my small family and come home to my currently disabled husband and my precocious daughter.
Time is up. Please place your pencils on your desks and close your workbooks.
You know, I find it amazing that what little problems I've ever had with Trolls or Trollish Behavior have always come typed above some derivative of the name Robert. I've had encounters with the "Robert McClelland Impersonator," with someone who claims to be the real Robert McClelland, and now, since all those IPs are banned, with an anonymous Bob. Interesting, to say the least.
So to begin with, we have yet another banned IP on the ever growing list. If this affects any of the truly good people who come over here to read, please let me know. My email is posted in the gutter. I'd hate to think that this would affect someone who did not behave in this manner.
Now, back to his general statement. Let me insert it here:
Off the subject, if your blog subtitle is true (The musings, rantings, and general blitherings of a stressed-out housewife and working mother in Indianapolis.), maybe you need to reduce the on-line time and take care of your children instead.Just a suggestion.
I was going to break this down and justify the time I spend online, the time at work, the time with my elderly parents, the time with my 9 yr old daughter who cannot go to a day program this summer because of cash-flow problems, and the time I spend with my husband. But I see absolutely no reason to legitimize his feeble attempt at superiority by justifying the manner in which I choose to spend my little bit of free time.
The same question could be made of this "Bob" and it would be a legitimate question. Why are you so obviously wasting your time cruising the blogs of persons you apparently feel are inferior to you, to your intelligence, and to your capacity for the dispensing of Wise and Sage Advice? Have you been driven from your regular chats by persons tired of your smug attitude? Will no one acknowledge your Witty and Worldly IMs any longer, choosing instead to list you as "never contact" with their IM providers? Doesn't that sphincter get a little tight on your neck? How do you manage to find trousers cut amply enough to accommodate the massive balls you apparently possess? No, I shouldn't stoop to that level. Forget I ever said you had balls of any consequence at all. I'm sure you don't.
Don't flatter yourself that I spent much time on this, "Bob." Five hundred words isn't even enough to get me warmed up, and seldom takes more than a few minutes, even when distracted by my wifely, motherly, daughterly, or work related duties.
And as an aside to Jack, Elizabeth, Pam, Aaron, Darth and the rest of you souls both good and kind, Thank You. If you ever find yourselves pinned down in a Troll Crossfire please remember, I have your six.
Posted by Mamamontezz at June 16, 2004 07:03 AMI don't know Bob, but I feel safe in proclaiming him to be an asshat.
I bet even sanctimonious idiots like Bob take comfort in pressure-relieving activities such as watching television, blogging or even playing golf.
Guess Bob's chosen down time activity is trolling.
Bye, Bob! ;)
Bob sounds like he suffers from cranial-rectal inversion.
Posted by: Techievampire at June 16, 2004 10:05 AMBob exemplifies what's wrong with this country, they destroy the culture, destroy the moral fiber, destroy the family, destroy the constitution which this country is based upon and replace it with perversions and leftist ideology. I doubt seriously that Bob and his ilk have seen up close what results when society breaks down and unrestricted debauchery reigns. Our ideals are worth fighting for and assholes like that only increase my resolve.
I have a strong desire to break random portions of Bob's skeletal system. Calling someone like him a troll is being unnecessarily cruel to trolls.
Of course this is only the opinion of a lowly blogger who is a father of 2 with a full time + job and a currently disabled spouse.
Posted by: Stephen Macklin at June 16, 2004 08:24 PMHey, Robert came and peed on my blog too. I had never seen him before. I find it breathtakingly amusing that he is claiming some moral high ground by making suggestions to you, yet he used a number of racial and ethnic slurs in my comments section. Gotta love that moral relativism...what an asshelmet.
