No matter how things change they remain the same.

Idiots are still idiots.

And just what are you doing out of the kitchen, little lady? Get back in there and make me a beef sandwich, beotch!

It is kinda what I might post though! You are getting better, imp!

good post, Abra Cadaver.
Didn't you forget about the home front leaking from the landing gear such as the Bill of Rights?
FBI given carte blanch to sneak and peek (plant evidence) on dissenters.
Concentration camps set up 'our' little piece of Cuba (possibly elsewhere)
Secret arrests and trials
Massive spying on citizens
A Pravda press
oh, and don't forget...
A raped economy
A raped economy

Whoa there sheep. Your misinformed paranoia is sorta getting outa hand there. Where the hell do you live?

I don't live in the state of denial.
What have I typed that has been incorrect?
What point can not be proven by facts here in the land
of freedom fries?
where the hell do you live, in fantasy land?

"What have I typed that has been incorrect? "

I guess we could start with your inane paranoia involving the nonexistent "massive spying" and "secret arrests and trials". Of course this fanatsy you have about "concentration camps" might be a good point to start as well.

If you honestly believe all this tripe then there's no discussion; you've already reduced the argument to absurdity.

I do know one thing for sure. As far-fetched as your "dreamworld" is, I know that nothing would make you happier than to have these things actually come true. Then you'd have a real reason to blame your failed and scared life on.

Who do you blame YOUR failed life on? The Tooth Fairy?

You're outed, shill.

Do you enjoy having conversations with yourself? It sure does seem like it!

You're outed, shill.

And you're a fool.

You're a paranoid psycho.

You're outed, shill.

I'm paranoid? Prove it.

Prove you're not posting under other's names. Just ask IP dude, one of your fake names.

You can't prove a negative. Besides, the burden of proof is on YOU.

IDIOT.

You're outed, shill.

I have proved it.

Now defend against the proof, fool.

The only thing that you have proven is that you're a paranoid psycho who can't deal with reality. If anyone disagrees with your point of view, you immediately label them "fake." You'd be wise to seek counseling.

You're outed shill.

That's rich, coming from you.

You never offer anything to the discussion at hand but disruptive impersonations.

i'm perfectly willing to debate anything with anyone, but you're just a coward who posts lies and insults under other people's names.

Fool.

Feel free to prove your accusations any time now. Or just keep ranting and raving and looking like the buffoon you really are.

IDIOT.

You're outed, shill.

I have proven it. You offer nothing in your own defense but insults and ravings.

You're outed, shill.

Don't you have a job? Or does disrupting imc pay pretty good?

Yes. I make six figures a year. You?

You're outed, shill.

Six figures? Sure. Matches that 145 IQ.

I see absolutely no reason to believe a liar like you.

PROVE that I'm a liar. You CAN'T because I'm NOT.

PSYCHO.

You're outed, shill.

You're not a liar?

Sure, you're not. Please give me one reason I should believe you.

Liar. Coward. Moron.

I couldn't care less whether a psycho like you believes me or not. You're the one making unsubstantiated allegations. This only serves to make you look like even more of a fool.

You're outed, shill.

That thing I've handed to you repeatedly? It's your ass.

Liar. Coward. Moron.

Yet ANOTHER unsubstantiated allegation from the resident psycho. Next?

You're outed, shill.

Why do you keep asking for proof of the obvious?

You know it. I know it. Everyone here knows it.

You're a liar and a coward and a moron.

Yet ANOTHER unsubstantiated allegation from the resident psycho. Next?

You're outed, shill.

Liar. Coward. Moron.

You're outed, shill.

Liar. Coward. Moron.

Yet MORE unsubstantiated allegations from the resident psycho.

FYI, ranting and raving does not substantiate an allegation.

IDIOT.

You're outed, shill.

Your psychosis bores me. From now on, I will restrict my statements of the obvious to once per thread. For you to see this as any sort of victory on your part would be a mistake, yet I expect that is exactly what you will do.

For you to deny the obvious is an indication of the depth of your illness. And for you to expect others to believe your denials is more evidence. You truly think that everyone is as stupid as you believe, when in fact, you are outthought at every turn.

Your illness is sad. It must be awful to be locked in your head. I suggest treatment for pathological lying and/or multiple personalities. Your cowardice is another challenge that might be overcome with therapy. The stupidity, however, is just something you're going to have to live with.

"You're outed, shill."
