Elderly adolescence
I seem to have upset a few people over the last couple of days?
I’m afraid I have once again incurred the wrath of Supershadow.
For those of you who don’t know who Supershadow is [shame on you], he is one of the most powerful people in this corner of the Galaxy, and maybe beyond, for it is he who has the Great Insight into the future and communes with Extra Terrestrials who are determining our fate. Oh, and he also writes the Start Wars films, I think.
He wrote to me and he is not pleased with me, which upsets me a little.
“i am writing to you to express concern with regards the increasing global warming skeptism that is scattered like a virus all over your web site. your foolishness makes me foam at the mouth.”
Apparently the rules of grammar and spelling have changed in the future which gives me hope. At least I’m on the right track there? [or should that be “the rite trak their”?]
He is glad however that my petty meanderings aren’t printed on paper.
“the only good thing about your blog is that at least its a blog an not a book and no trees were harmed.”
Well, actually I have a terrible confession to make. You see, I think my readers deserve the best and it’s for my reader’s [and for the sake of punctuation pedants, I am assuming just one reader. I’m not proud] sake my servers have their own power supply. It’s a little wood-burning station and as I believe in only the best it only burns prime mahogany specially imported from Equatorial Africa via coal fired tramp steamer. Is that wrong too?
“I cycle 10 miles to work from my 500 acre ranch and back every day instead of driving(supershadow.com megaServers are stored in a top secret location and security is only accessible via my voice print)…if there is no warming then this pretty much makes me an idiot? surely you must see how i can find your blog posts insulting.”
Surely it would be simpler to stay at home and just control the servers remotely? That’s what I do.
His last paragraph does give me grave cause for concern and will take some deep thought.
“your foolishness will catch up with you grandad. even at the 11th hour of your existence, i hold out some hope for you maturing beyond your elderly adolescence (yes you are a walking oxymoron).
its up to you. reject conflict.just relax.think.breathe. to quote george lucas – to be renewed is everything
the question is grandad , are you going to be renewed or simply recycled?”
So am I going to be renewed or recycled?
Now I know the EU is demanding ownership of my cadaver so they can use my organs, so that would class as recycling surely?
But the EU can go fuck themselves if they think they’re getting my bits, so I suppose that only leaves renewal. And renewal would entail replacing the various bits as they wear out which would mean using other people’s organs so that’s out.
Damnit!
Dear Supershadow,
Thank you for your kind mail.
Can I have a third option please?
Yours sincerely,
The Walking Oxymoron

So please desist from trying to ram shite down our gobs.If supershadow wants to talk about oxymorons maybe he should look a little further into his family tree? http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/e/e7/MorkMindy.jpg
Oy! Leave him alone. I'm flattered that he takes so much time out of his busy schedule to write to me.
Oh yes.
“I cycle 10 miles to work from my 500 acre ranch and back every day instead of driving if there is no warming then this pretty much makes me an idiot? surely you must see how i can find your blog posts insulting.”
wtf is he on about? yes he is an idiot i gathered that in the read but why does he blame his bicycle for it? and why isn't he working his ranch? or is he just doing laps round his ranch? perhaps pulling a plow with is 'cycle is too hard? and what does global warming have to do with not driving proper vehicles to work with?
I dunno, I think idiot fits him.
I would encourage him et al. Whoever Al is. This blog of yours , excellent and blood boiling as it is, has way too many arse /ass licking sycophants.
Dissent is always welcome. If it wasn't, you'd have been barred years ago. Heh!
I have tenure.
Another blowhole, wonder was he 'heading' back from Slane when he read your piece!
Is this idiot for real? Ah well, thats you told GD…….
I suggest you print out every blog post (in triplicate) just in case anything ever happens to your servers
I already have, and a lot more than just triplicate.
I think it may be out of print though.
Touched a nerve there with a couple of 'em. HA !
No you didn't tt.
Who's hacking me?
Where are the men in white coats when you need 'em?
Cycles 10 miles to work, aye? 500 acre Ranch? Really? The few people I've known that own a 500 acre or anywhere near that ranch spend the vast majority of their days and nights tending the effing ranch! Grow up, go back to school (You obviously didn't get past primary school.), and get a job. He joined Gor-versity far too early in life. 🙂
