    Look, im not asking for any threads to be closed. And a certain amount of competive intellectual sparring is par for the course. But the constant "look how smart I am" "im smarter than anyone else" "my field is toughest" "your field is BS" just reeks of profound insecurities. I would generalize from what Kuci said, most intelligent folks who are secure in their self esteem dont go around boasting about it. Its just gotten a bit much lately, is all. I suppose it will pass, but Im not certain.
    I would have thought other people's reactions would be more indicative of their personalities than the original post is of the troll...

    • The simple facts, LOTM, are as follows:
      1) Your field -- the field of all things Jewish, I presume -- is simply not important. It holds about as much importance as people who study science fiction, a related field.
      2) Your continued posting in a thread you do not approve does nothing except bump it. Conclusions can be drawn by the reader.

        It is, indeed, telling that the people who post here and refuse to take part in the fun are Poly's most inane, boring, and unremarkable posters who are known for forgettable personalities.

          It's not just intelligence, it's true of many an insecurity. It's the same with the trophy wife for example.

          • LOTM, the reality is probably that the OT has gotten quieter, with its posters knowing each other better, meaning more trolls and jests. Honestly, take it easy.

                      Can put me on the list if you really feel like it.

                        What kind of wager are we talking? Against your assessment or against a benchmark?
                        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                          Your desperate attempts not to be branded uncool are duly noted.

                            I'm beginning to wonder when your smarmy self-righteousness will pass.

                              LOTM lacks a humour gland.
