Guidelines | consignes

DISCLAIMER: in my experience, the following doesn't apply to 99% of my readership. Unfortunately, experience also shows it has to be written down for the remaining 1%.

The short version, when it comes to my comments policy, goes down to a line taken from the (mediocre) second opus of the Matrix:

"I built this place. Down here, I make the rules."

Let's elaborate a bit:

  1. Try to stay on topic. If you have a beef against the cow-fart(1) induced climate change and this post is about monkey spanking(2), then it's not the place to draw your sword(3).
    I have nothing against a freewheeling conversation, but if it's off-topic AND stupid or offensive, then it will have a badly limited lifespan.
  2. Consider the two following statements…
    • I'm totally open-minded when it comes to rational ideas.
    • It is quite obvious that Anti-Americanism, anti-Semitism, Islamism, Nationalism, Racism, Collectivism(4) and Multiculturalism (non-exhaustive list) exist in complete contradiction with Reason.
    … And guess the total amount of tolerance you can expect from me if you indulge in any of these.
  3. If you shall persist in these ways nevertheless, understand that I'm not spending countless hours of work on this site to "reach out", "debate" with you, "understand" your "root causes" or "learn" about your religion. Unlike race, ideology is something we choose, and for which we must bear all responsibilities. I loathe your sick mindset and what you defend and promote. I've heard all your pitiful excuses for your despicable totalitarian psyche and your compulsion to coerce or enslave your fellow men and women in the name of some "greater good".
    So understand that this is not a public forum: it is my outpost in the culture war you wage against me, my kin, my rights and my freedom — thus, you will only be tolerated here, and only if I decide so. I call the shots and I owe you nothing. As a matter of fact, I don't like having you around, so the only argument you're truly entitled to hear from me would come, if you insist, amplified through the barrel of my Sig-Sauer high powered rifle(5) — because when it comes to intolerant scumbags, I'm an intolerant bastard.
    So keep your distances, and nobody gets hurt.
  4. I also have a very limited patience for social-democrats of all race and creed, center-of-center jellyfish and buttermonkey(6) hybrids, Blame-America-First (and always) Libertarians (usually of the Rothbardian school), Hollywood idiots & Festival-de-Cannes cretins and those Parisians who fancy themselves as an elite when they are nothing but the developed world's rednecks(7). However, I tend to ignore them, so they may consider themselves lucky if they manage to draw some sarcasm in colorful language from me.
  5. Yeah, and don't get me started on journalists and the Wonderful World of Mainstream Media...
  6. American and British soldiers (including the Commonwealth) stand on a special pedestal in my personal pantheon. Disrespect them here, and you'll quickly wish you'd rather stand naked in Mecca during Hajj, wearing only a sign that reads "Muhammad was a pedophile".
  7. I may moderate, remove or edit anything and give neither excuses nor explanations. It has nothing to do with "censorship": I am not a State, you are not a coerced citizen of said State and so you are always free to express yourself on your own facility and by your own means. Commenting is not a right, it is a privilege I grant or take away, according to my right as the owner of this place.
  8. My site is not awfully biased: it's shamelessly opinioned. If you're on my side, you get my vote and are free to rant 'n' roll. If not, live with it or go rot in the gutter.
  9. Oh and, if you're a vegan, be advised that I hunt, kill, cook(8) and eat all sorts of animals, and thoroughly enjoy the whole lot of it. Have fun with your carrots, Doc.
  1. Ha ha. Beef. Cow. Geddit?
  2. It's been known to happen.
  3. Neither is the guestbook by the way.
  4. That includes of course all its variations: Socialism, National-Socialist, Communism, Fascism, etc.
  5. With a loud 'Bang'
  6. Nope, don't know what species is that either, but it does sound like a particularly vile creature, doesn't it?
  7. Tell me London, New-York, Sydney or Tokyo, but Paris is a dump.
  8. Frequently in some sort of wine sauce or with loads of tears-pulling spices. Grapes and pepper count as veggie stuff right?

AVERTISSEMENT : selon mon expérience, ce qui suit ne s'applique pas à 99% de mes lecteurs. Malheureusement, l'expérience prouve aussi qu'il faut que cela soit écrit pour le pourcentage restant.

La version courte, concernant ma politique pour les commentaires, se résume à une ligne tirée du second (médiocre) volet de Matrix:

"J'ai construit cet endroit. Ici, je fais les lois."

Élaborons un brin :

  1. Il existe une subtile différence entre "être familier" et "traiter familièrement". Cela signifie que les culs-sales qui s'imaginent débarquer ici et me tutoyer comme si nous avions gardé les piquets de grève ensemble verront leur contribution à la conversation éradiquée sans autre forme de procès. Quelle que soit la pertinence de ladite contribution. Même si vous n'êtes Vraiment Pas Content® avec ce que j'écris, cela ne vous dispense pas de surveiller vos manières : tant que je n'ai pas été présenté à votre chère Maman, nous nous vouvoierons. Vu ?
  2. Évitez le hors-sujet. Si vous avez une rancune à l'égard de l'impact des pets de vache sur le changement climatique et que cet article traite de la fessée de macaque(1), alors ce n'est pas l'endroit d'où lancer votre croisade (2).
    Je n'ai rien contre une conversation à bâtons rompus, mais si c'est hors-sujet ET stupide ou insultant, ça aura une durée de vie salement limitée.
  3. Considérez les deux affirmations suivantes...
    • J'ai une ouverture d'esprit totale en ce qui concerne toutes idées rationnelles.
    • Il est évident qu' Anti-américanisme, anti-Sémitisme, Islamisme, Nationalisme, Racisme, Collectivisme(3) et Multiculturalisme (liste non-exhaustive) existent en complète contradiction avec la Raison.
    ... Et tâchez de devinez la dose totale de tolérance que vous pouvez attendre de moi si vous cédez à l'une de ces sirènes.
  4. Si vous deviez cependant persister dans ces voies, comprenez que je ne dépense pas un nombre incalculable d'heures de travail sur ce site pour vous "tendre la main", "débattre" avec vous, "comprendre" vos "causes profondes" ou "apprendre à connaitre" votre religion. Contrairement à la race, l'idéologie est le résultat de nos choix, et nous devons en supporter l'entière responsabilité. J'abhorre votre mentalité tarée, et ce que vous défendez et promouvez. J'ai entendu toutes vos pitoyables excuses pour votre détestable psyché de totalitaire et votre compulsion à forcer et réduire vos semblables en esclavage au nom d'un quelconque "intérêt général".
    Comprenez donc que ceci n'est pas un forum publique : c'est mon avant-poste dans la guerre culturelle que vous lancez contre moi, mes semblables, mes droits et ma liberté — vous ne serez que toléré ici, et seulement si je le décide. Je tire les ficelles, et ne vous doit rien. En fait je n'aime pas vous voir dans le coin, et en conséquence les seuls arguments de ma part auxquels vous puissiez réellement prétendre, si vous insistez, se transmettent par le canon de ma carabine de fort calibre Sig-Sauer(4) — Parce dès qu'ils s'agit d'ordures intolérantes, je suis un salaud d'intolérant.
    Alors gardez vos distances, et personne ne sera blessé.
  5. J'ai aussi un patience très limitée pour les sociaux-démocrates de toute confession et couleur, les centristes-du-centre fruits de l'union d'une méduse et d'un cul de singe, les Libertarés de l'École Rothbard conditionnés au "C'est la faute à l'Amérique, toujours et partout", Les Idiots d'Hollywood et les Crétins-de-Cannes, de même que ces parisiens qui se prennent pour une élite alors qu'ils ne sont que les bouseux du monde développé (5). J'ai cependant tendance à les ignorer, et ils peuvent donc s'estimer chanceux s'ils arrivent à me soutirer ne serait-ce qu'un sarcasme en langage fleuri.
  6. Ouais, et ne me lancez pas sur les journalistes et le Monde Merveilleux des Medias...
  7. Les soldats Américains et Britanniques (parmi lesquels j'inclue le Commonwealth) prennent place sur un piédestal particulier dans mon panthéon personnel. Manquez leur de respect ici, et vous souhaiterez rapidement vous trouver plutôt à la Mecque en période Hajj, tout nu avec seulement une pancarte autour du coup sur laquelle on puisse lire "Mahomet était un pédophile".
  8. Je peux modérer, supprimer ou éditer quoi que ce soit, sans fournir d'excuses ni d'explications. Cela n'a rien à voir avec de la “censure”, pour une raison très simple : je ne suis pas un État, vous n'êtes pas un citoyen opprimé dudit État et demeurez donc libre de vous exprimer sur votre propre support et par vos propres moyens. Commenter n'est pas un droit, c'est un privilège que j'accorde ou refuse selon mon droit de propriétaire des lieux.
  9. Mon site n'est pas affreusement partial, il est impudemment orienté. Si vous êtes de mon côté, vous avez mon aval et êtes libre de disserter à l'envi. Sinon, faites avec ou allez crever dans le caniveau.
  10. Oh, et si vous êtes végétarien, sachez que je chasse, tue, cuisine(6) et bouffe toutes sortes d'animaux, et que j'apprécie le tout sans aucune retenue. Soyez heureux avec vos carottes Docteur.
  1. C'est déjà arrivé.
  2. C'est aussi valable pour le Livre d'Or.
  3. Ce qui inclue aussi ses variantes : Socialisme, National-Socialisme, Communisme, Fascisme, etc.
  4. Avec un gros 'Bang'
  5. Londres, New-York, Sydney ou Tokyo, d'accord. Mais Paris, c'est un bled de cul-terreux.
  6. Généralement avec une sauce au vin, ou alors des poignées d'épices à t'arracher la tripaille. Le raisin et les piments, ça compte comme trucs de végétarien, non ?

Help

  1. As an additional layer of defense against comment spamming and surf-by shooting, I enacted a set of restrictions on how you can post a comment as a simple guest on my site (i.e. either when you're not registered as a member, or registered but not logged in), starting with pre-publishing comment approval. As approving comments will take a certain — and variable — amount of time, I invite you to check-in if you're serious about joigning the conversation in real time.
  2. Non-authenticated users are also limited to the following HTML tags:
    • Bold (<strong></strong>)
    • Italic (<em></em>)
    • Underline (<u></u>)
    • Quote (<blockquote></blockquote>)
    Don't bother entering any other tags, as they will automagically get stripped on posting.
  3. Members have access to a greater range of tags and publishing tools, and they can also choose to be informed by email of follow-up comments, for any given thread.
  4. Members also have an easier and more straightforward posting process. Some of the system defenses are lowered for them, and the details fields (name, etc.) are pre-filled with the information they entered in their profile.
  5. Members have a greater chance to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, while it will be assumed that, in addition to an opinion, strangers have stinky feet and greasy fingers. They may therefore be regarded with great condescension by regular members and the dissident frogman alike, and derided accordingly. So wash your feet, your hands, and register.
  6. A reminder: you decide what you write, no matter how brilliant or stupid it might be, and the fact that I let it go published doesn't mean I condone, agree or disagree with it—no matter if I answer it or not. Hey, you're supposed to be a responsible adult, right?

If you need further help with the site, you may want to check the Field Manual. Ultimately, you can also drop me a line. I usually don't answer jellyfish and buttermonkey(1) hybrids however.

  1. Nope, don't know what species is that either, but it does sound like a particularly vile creature, doesn't it?
  1. En défense contre le spam et les tirs isolés, j'ai établi un ensemble de restrictions sur l'ajout de commentaires par les simples visiteurs sur le site (i.e. soit lorsque vous n'êtes pas enregistré comme membre, soit lorsque vous l'êtes, mais n'avez pas ouvert une session), dont notamment la modération avant publication. L’approbation des commentaires prenant un temps certain et variable, je vous invite donc à vous inscrire, si vous envisagez sérieusement de participer à la conversation en temps réel.
  2. Les utilisateurs non authentifiés sont également limités aux balises HTML suivantes :
    • Gras (<strong></strong>)
    • Italique (<em></em>)
    • Souligné (<u></u>)
    • Citation (<blockquote></blockquote>)
    Ne vous fatiguez pas à en utiliser d'autres, le texte passe par un filtre de suppression lors de la publication.
  3. Les membres ont accès à une plus large sélection d'outils et de balises, et ils peuvent choisir pour chaque 'conversation' à laquelle ils prennent part d'être informé par email des réponses.
  4. Les membres ont également un "processus de publication" plus simple et direct. Certaines défenses du système sont abaissées pour eux, et les champs des détails sont pré-remplis avec les informations qu'ils ont entré dans leur profil.
  5. Les membres ont une plus grande chance d'entrer au Royaume des Cieux, tandis que l'on considèrera que, en sus d'une opinion, les visiteurs venus d'ailleurs ont les doigts gras et les pieds sales. Ils pourront de ce fait être traité avec grande condescendance par les autres membres et le dissident frogman de même, et ridiculisés en conséquence. Alors lavez vos mains, vos pieds, et inscrivez-vous.
  6. Pour mémoire : vous décidez de ce que vous écrivez, aussi brillant ou stupide que cela soit, et le fait que j'en autorise la publication ne signifie pas que je l'approuve ou le désapprouve, et cela que j'y réponde ou non. Hé, vous êtes censé vous comporter en adulte responsable, s'pas ?

Si vous avez besoin de plus d'aide avec le site, jetez un œil au manuel d'instruction. Au pire, vous pouvez également m'envoyer un mot. J'ai cependant tendance à ne pas répondre aux fruits de l'union d'une méduse et d'un cul de singe.

Have you seen the groundbreaking Global Warming coverage on NBCs Today Show? Matt lauer was standing on the Arctic Circle, and it is so warm his breath did not fog when he spoke, standing out of doors, on the Arctic Circle, in November. Wow. Just, wow.

DF:

We are not alone in our skepticism.  I sent you an email with links to other like minded critics of the warmies.  The BBC, CBC and the President of the Czech Republic are with us.  My favorite is Joe LaGuardi, the guy from Boston.  (When you watch his video, avoid drinking liquids or risk their projectile nasal ejection.) 

UK Ch4 Program About Global Warming  British SkepticsThe Guy from Boston- Global Warming ("Mature" Language but hilarious)Economist Bjorn Lomborg: Global warming is not a priority  Nice to do, but at what cost?

My problem with the whole idea is that they refuse to engage in serious technical debate ignoring the following:

1. For the last 1,600,000,000 years, ice ages (glacials) have occerred about every 100,000 years.  Acentury ago, a Serbian civil engineer theorized that glacials are astrophysical - caused by changes in the Earth’s orbit.  See "Milankovich Cycles."

2. The preeminent climatologist in the United States is Dr. Reid Bryson of the U of Wisconcin.  He says that water vapor is the most important green house gas.  When asked to assess the impact of CO2, he says that H2O causes 80% of greenhouse effect takes place in the first 30 feet above the surface.  CO2 causes about 0.08%, so water vapor is 1000 times as important.  "If you go out and spit in your front yard, you have had more effect than doubling CO2. See the "Faithful Heretic."

3.  According to NASA, 168 Billion metric tons of CO2 is added to the world’s atmosphere annually.  100 B come from the oceans, releasing CO2 as they warm. (A result of warming, not a cause.) 30 B come from animal respiration - breathing.  30 B come from decaying plant and animal matter.  Man only adds 8 B including 6 B from burning fossil fuels.  So, if we were to cease all use of use of petroleum, natural gas and coal, push the world’s standard of living back to the 8th Century, the total CO2 would decrease from 168 B to 162 B metric tons. 

4.  Great experiment melting ice.  Archimedes would be proud of you.  If the ice caps and ice bergs melt, what would happen to sea level? Nothing.

Having only been a partaker of your blog for a relatively short time - I forget, 2 or 3 or 6 or 4 months - I want to wish you a very Merry Blogaversary, DF.

I notice, whenever I force my eyes to focus on the Algore, that his suit looks tighter each time I see him.  If he does survive to meet and surpass any of his deadlines for doom, I’m certain he will accept credit for having steered the earth away from disaster.  Maybe the polar caps are melting because his bulk is upsetting the earths rotation as he travels around in his JET!

Thanks DF!  It’s fun.

Cobaltberet, I read your comment on the Great Hero Algore. I’ll have you know that the Great Hero Algore is at great cost to himself undergoing a process of CO2 sequestration that will greatly benefit the nation and the world. And I have it on good authority that when he dies he will have himself mummified so that the CO2 can’t get back into the atmosphere thus saving the proletariat from a fate worse than Venus. There are some things that shouldn’t be allowed to decay!

OUTSTANDING!!!  I laughed the entire time I was watching that video.  I especially love the "Democraptic" Math...gone in 23 years, or as little as 34.  Almost like saying....it’s not a new tax, just a "fee" that you have pay so everybody else can enjoy what you worked so hard to earn for yourself.  Gotta love those "Dims".  Without them, what fun would we have?

Congrats on 5 years, and keep up the great work!

Congratulations on your upcoming anniversary!

And many more we all hope for your blogging and miming!

Here’s another tidbit.  Mt. Kenya and Mt. Kilimanjaro are the two farthest points on the planet Earth that can be still seen from each other.   Both are 19,000 feet +, and both are free-standing mountains (no range) at the equator.  BOTH have glaciers at the summits.

ONLY Kilimanjaro’s glacier is mentioned by AL Gore.  Mt. Kenya’s glacier is NEVER mentioned.  WIth the nearly identical circumstances, one glacier is photographed as shrinking - blamed on global warming.  SO if that was the case, it should be that same for Mt. Kenya, but  Mt. Kenya’s glacier has no minimal change. 

1) Both glaciers are frozen at a steady rate of about -3 degrees FARENHEIT.  (it’s the equator - no winter spring summer or fall there) That’s about 35 degrees BELOW freezing temperature.  Melting does not occur at those altitudes (19,000 feet- roughly 6,000 meters ) or at those temperatures.  Due to the height and thin atmosphere, it could warm at sea level and still have no effect on the temps at 19,000 feet.  Therefore, any statement that there is MELTING at the summit of Kilimanjaro is FALSE, and relies totally on the ignorance of the listener.

2) The area around KIlimanjaro has been in drought conditions for over a decade.  The snow accumulation is less thanks to lack of precipitation.  Mt. Kenya has better annual rains.  The glacier on Mt. Kilimanjaro can lose mass only through sublimation into the cold, dry air. 

3) AL Gore’s career has been in politics.  He has no education in science of any kind, and did piss poor, flunking level work in the education he did receive, exactly what still remains unclear.  Then logically,  rationally, when he speaks about "environmental" issues, then he always speaks politically, not scientifically. 

Outstanding article with actual, real, proper scientific data at The American Scientist - The Snows of KIlimanjaro.

Happy 5th Anniversary DF! Love the new video very much!

PS Does anyone else have this problem and know how to solve it....When I read a topic, then the comments and decide I want to add a comment myself, I have to go through the whole process twice before it allows me to type? IOW, click on topic title, comments, post - add a comment, then all those things again? Why won’t it let me type the first time I go through all the clicking process?  Maybe I should click Home first? Or maybe I do that already, I don’t know anymore my brain’s shot.

Scotty! I need more power to my hair dryer!

I can’t do it Captain, the warp coils don’t have an outlet, and even if they did, Al Gore stole the dilithium crystals! He said they gave off to much CO2!

But Scotty, we’re in space!

Something else to warm our hearts regarding The Goracle will be the upcoming Nobel Peace prize concert, which will be held in honor of the the windbag next month on the 11th, the day after the prize is "officially" awarded.  He’s also being considered as a possibility for Time’s "Person of the Year" cover.

While this year has indeed been one "win" after another for Gore, I take heart in the fact that he still doesn’t have the one thing he’s craved ever since he began his political career: the presidency.

I can’t do it Captain, the warp coils don’t have an outlet, and even if they did, Al Gore stole the dilithium crystals! He said they gave off to much CO2!


Hmmm.   Have you tried an ionic hair dryer? It works wonders on drying hair quickly, so maybe it’ll work just as well on ice cubes, too  ;)


To DF: Please check your PM’s when you get a second, will ya busy guy? :)

Cobaltberet, ah, you begin to discern, but the corduroy does help. ;)

 

Now can somebody tell me what the heck is wrong with Glowball Warming? With perpetual summer Algore wouldn’t have to wear all of those corduroy suits… well maybe he could cut it down to one at a time. His carbon footprint would definitely be smaller and so would any other prints that he left anywhere. I’m clueless...(well, let’s not get into that).

Bonne Blogiversaire!!     I dedicate General John Starks 1809 toast to our beloved Frogman, "Live free or die. Death is not the worst of all evils." This should be toasted with a good Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey such as 1792 Ridgemont Reserve.

The Goracle, Almighty Dispenser of wisdom to the masses, Cannot be wrong! We all know that his math is infallible, and his computer skills beyond mere mortals! After all didn’t he create the internet? You Have Blasphemed THE GORACLE! You will be destroyed in no  more than 23 minutes-or as little as 34 minutes-or was that 43-55....

Grimmy, I can’t give him the standard motivational yell so I’ll give him a HooYah in Red and Gold in solidarity. The man has sage and compassion written all over him. Accomplish the mission and then go home with your head high.

 

With men like him we field three times the strength of the morning muster count.

Grimmy, Good find! This is what the US soldier is, hardheaded,stubborn,dedicated, hardheaded, (did I say hardheaded already?)resolute. I just helped send off 3 re-enlistees at the beginning of November, 2 truckdrivers and a POL specialist. Troops who are routinely targeted by enemy action. And to top it off they all have requested to return to 10th MountainDiv for redeploy at soonest. Just as Spc Hoyt said, they see the job not finished, and figure they are the best qualified to bring it to completion. BooYaa, indeed!!

JihadGene:

Seeing as how this is the "new age" with the One Big Team and all, I really should learn to reform my ways, but, unfortunatly, I’m still a parocial when it comes to service lingo. I know the Army lingo and what it’s supposed to sound like, but when motivation makes its way out of my yap from all the way down in the gut, it will always come out formed in the UUHRAA way.

No offense intended.

PS. Everyone: Stand To and Stand Ready. The enemy within is beginning to publish much mis and disinformation concerning our troops. Conflations and irrationalizations about suicides, mental health issues, desertion rates, etc etc. Don’t let the idjits wear you down.

JihadGene, I bow to your superior knowledge. Being a former member of Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children, the nuances found in the mating calls of the brother organizations are beyond me. :D
