I’ve had a go at debating the original issue and issues raised.

Yes, quite right. But the problem is that it wasn’t a very good go so you were told you’re wrong and why. But, as usual, you trot out the obfuscation and red herrings, toss in a pinch of complete and utter bullshit and keep digging like a demented terrier digging for a particularly whiffy bone. Its that bit right there that’s fun for anyone in the mood to play.

Ross12,
I have 8.1 and have no problems, but I use Chrome rather than Explorer.
What really annoys me about 8.1, though, is the floating sidebars. How can I get rid of them?

I don’t want to alarm you, but I’d be careful if I were you given the events of the last few weeks.

Bloody hell….. The beige badger has posted no fewer than 28 times since ~10.30am. On this thread alone! 🙄

I wonder if he managed to finish the dusting…

EDIT: Make that 29 times….

Scott Yorke:

I didn’t turn comments off on my blog because of you. Don’t flatter yourself that you’re that important. I may enjoy having sport at your expense now and then, but I don’t care enough about what you think to actively avoid you.

I made the decision to turn comments off a couple of days ago. While your comments this morning may have accelerated that process, it wasn’t really about you. Most things aren’t about you.

That’s quite funny Scott – because you deliberately made it look like it was about me in your “No Comment” announcement, mentioning me twice (and no one else) in a short post.

so yesterday someone said:

“i think most people would find incest to be gross” or words to that effect.

PG said “got any proof of that?” (like a moron. yeah hang on pete ill provide links to the 300 studies about whether people think its ok to fuck their sister.)

today we get from Pete:

“you might find accusing people of paedophilia/incest is humorous but I don’t, and I think most people would think it is an indecent thing to do.”

so pete – got any proof of that? can you live up to your own standard? im assuming the incest you dont like is parent/kid..

For goodness sakes people, this disgusting incest argument was part of Phil Goff’s last election platform, along with lowering the age of consent. Don’t berate a foolish new player in politics, look at the evil and foul agenda of an old Lange boy, he is the one who has the foul and evil wish to make changes . . . and he has not changed.

That is the common or garden variety of badger of the European badger family Meles. The term is the same for the Meles genus generally, except for the Meles Beigus which is pronounced the same but spelt differently as you have deduced.

Leaving the moral issue aside, the worst outcome is progeny from siblings who share 100% of their dna. In the cases of father/daughter or mother/son any offspring will have 25% of unrelated genes.

Many desirable improvements in livestock are the result of utilising a particular gene which frequently involves line breeding.

Anyway, I suggest you alert Pete to this outrage, he’s bound to go after it like a badger with a banjo in his bonnet.

Heh, sounds like something Fletch would say in referring to gays. Interesting to see ChardonnayGuy on yesterdays thread trying to refute any moral equivalence between the relationships of gays and incestuous siblings.

Heck, if I were Scarlett Johannsonn’s brother I’d be willing to give incest a go…

It’s just that Pete’s “lines” are as invisible and pointless as the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn’t there.

Interesting use of the black cat analogy

In other matters

The Norfolk lights! Aurora Borealis makes rare visit to East Anglia as skies across Britain turn red and green in spectacular display

Stargazers in Norfolk, Essex and South Wales were treated to a stunning display of the Aurora Borealis. Pictures show a red and green sky littered with stars caused by the collision of electronically charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere. Such light displays in the sky often occur in the Arctic and Antarctic regions and are caused by the collision of particles from the sun entering the earth’s atmosphere.

Observation: I’m being mocked.

Conclusion: I’ve made a hit and I must keep going for it must be important otherwise they wouldn’t be attacking me. The possibility I’m wrong isn’t possible.

I was being facetious – the point I was making was more to do with cultural taboo. One thing worth considering though – if incest can be defined as having sex with a close relative then surely masturbation is as incestuous as one can get.

Don’t let that freak you out though 🙂

Seriously tdm, I’ve achieved a number of things today but I’m not going to tell you what, you’re hardly after a decent discussion about it, are you. That’s not what you’re about.

I’ll tell you one though, I think this is a first, I’ve been linked to (albeit from a copy/paste) from the Global Peace and Justice blog.

Who is the fuckwit American munter screwing with a creature for fun in this scenario?

[Video description] Watch Neal Hunt and the Soar No More Crew as they catch a wild badger with gloved hands, a sheet, and a dog kennel. Most amazing badger films caught on tape! The badger was digging holes in a farmers field, which is dangerous to the farmer, and his equipment. The badger was relocated to avoid potential harm to the farmer, and the animal.

and

[One of the comments] It’s so ironic that half of the highest rated comments are along the lines of, “So this is what rednecks do for fun. What idiots,” when those people are the real idiots for not reading the video description and knowing that they were relocating it because it was in someone’s farm. It’s hilarious how people online can be so ignorant that they wind up looking dumber than rednecks.

Yeah, I got halfway through before stopping watching. Contrary to popular belief and despite my regular commentary on Kiwiblog, there is actually a limit to how much time I’ll waste on useless nonsense. Looked to me like he was fucking with the poor thing for fun. Apologies if that got radically reversed in the second four minutes of the video.

I suggest therefore you try to avoid future Kiwiblog threads with more than say, three Pete George comments. The useless nonsense factor tends to accelerate algorithmically when that’s exceeded, and I’m being kind to Pete in suggesting that threshold.

P.S. If you ever see Pete at the very top of the thread, run for your life, that’s a DEFCON 1 Alert.

As elsewhere online there’s quite a bit of abuse and attempts at bullying in Kiwiblog. Most people who find it unacceptable ignore it or leave, so the bullies think they can get away with it. If enough people speak up against crap the message will get through.

Personally Pete I only disagree with you when you’re wrong. The fact is, you’re wrong quite often. That’s why days like today happen.

They don’t have to happen like this Pete, but the person who creates them isn’t me, it’s you.

Think about it.

Not that I expect you to, but that’s what you should do.

Don’t take my word for it. Review everything everyone has said – it’s all there, on the record. You’ll find out for yourself whose wrong and whose right.

But it’s not really about what all of us said to you Pete. It’s about what you said to us, that made it happen.

So Nosti joins the tag team. Are you going to list all the niggles against versus that? Include yours if you do.

I wonder what would happen if I did a value stream map of them. There’d be lots of frowns in the boardroom, that’s for real. ‘Not much value added there’ they’d grumpily harrumph.

I know you like to deal with black and white but this is about opinion. I think one thing, you think another. That doesn’t make you right no matter how often you claim it does. Opinion. Do you understand what that is?

Yes I do Pete. So tell us, what does your review of the black and white comments as recorded forever in this thread which cannot be denied, tell you about people’s opinions of you?

So Nosti joins the tag team.

Yes that’s right Pete, it’s all about you, because all day you’ve made such tremendous home runs that the entire Kiwiblog comment squad made a secret pact to get together and disrupt you from start to finish, lest you make another tremendous insight that we just don’t like at all, because we’re all whatever it is that you think we are.

This is my first comment on this thread – and, indeed, on any blog all day. You’ve now made 42 comments on this thread. Goodness only knows how many comments you’ve made on other Kiwiblog threads and other blogs today. Do you have a life outside the blogosphere? Is there more to your life than being a self-appointed blog standards monitor?

I don’t care about your opinion Reid. Especially when you try and claim credit for “people’s opinions”. I disagree with you and you don’t seem to be able to accept something simple like that. Surely you don’t need all those other people to back you up.

Nosti – perhaps you can choose when and how often you comment and so can I. I’m an adult, I presume you are too. You’ve tried this counting comments game before, I’m not sure why, but I know for sure you’re not my mother, and I’m old enough to do as I please anyway.

Que?

All I said Pete, was read the comments above. There they are, in black and white, and they show what others think of you.

How did you jump the shark from me saying that, to what you just hallucinated?

Now you’re sounding like Philu. You want to be a dick just because, well, you can? Fine – but don’t whine when others point out that you’re behaving like a dick. Let me put this to you then. What do you make of the fact that you account for approximately 15% of all comments on today’s General Debate thread? And, overall, how would you assess the value of your contributions?

You couldn’t resist a conspiracy theory, could you Reid. Next thing you’ll be trying to claim there’s proof some sort of god exists somewhere other than in people’s minds.

A fine satire for those who understand satire and obsession which will go over the heads of those who cannot grasp either

What do you make of the fact that…

You can make what you like of it if you think it’s important to you. I don’t care about it, it seems a pointless point. Sorry to disappoint you, it seems like a waste of time for me, but it was your choice to do it.

What do you make of the fact that you went to all that trouble to collate and count all that information and it doesn’t mean anything of any importance?

Newsflash Pete: it didn’t take me very long (not hard when you know how to do it efficiently). I think the Kiwiblog community (you excepted) will be eternally grateful for my analysis but, hey, I’m happy to leave that for others to judge. One thing is certain: you’ll be back again tomorrow commenting from dawn until dusk, and no doubt making lots of new friends, as well as inching closer to 30,000 comments.

I know what you’re trying to do Nosti and it’s a bit of a waste of time, so I’m not sure how eternally grateful anyone will be to see a bunch of irrelevant numbers.

Shortly I’ll probably have less time to play games with you but I’ll choose when that is and it will have nothing to do with your first comment of the day. Or any others.

I see you’ve edited and added another attempt, oh, will that stop me pleasing myself here? You can come back tomorrow and count and copy and paste again if you like. After everyone has been finished being eternally grateful for tonight’s wee effort you might be able to do something else useful for everyone.

DPF – do you give out demerits for when someone needs a rest? for their own mental state?

todays effort from pg has been interesting.. i think hes displayed defence mechanisms built up over decades. i suspect 10+ people telling him to quit while hes ahead, let it go, stop being a dick is nothing new.

youre a strange cat PG.

Speaking of conspircay theories, PG, did you hear the one about the shipping company that fast tracked construction of new office space in order to be able to vacate the twin towers about a week before September 11?

“…to quote Jamie Whyte: ” I think it is important that political debate be conducted in a way that is intelligent…”

Not when gays are involved Jamie!

100% of people have a mum and a dad – as they’re born that way – and the gays in parliment think that should somehow be up for discussion?

If children are expected to change then you’d think adult gays could! 😎

Someone tried that, but the Grey Badger was afraid it could be considered rape, if the sheep doll didn’t consent.

according to the blues v crusaders game report on stuff, richie mccaw “lasted an hour before being subbed”.

reality:

“40th Min: Taylor gets the second half underway, with a low, hanging kick which Steven Luatua gathers, He sets up a ruck 10 metres outside his 22. The big news after the break is that Richie McCaw has been replaced by Matt Todd for the Crusaders.”

richie looks old and slow. he looks like hes in the sort of condition where you make a noise getting out of a chair. i hope he doesnt go too long. personally i cant see him making the RWC. that means he should bugga off now. like tana had the good grace to do – two years out.

then again, he may just be timing his run. hope so.

if the sheep doll marries an Alpaca first is that considered consent

Did you realise that Len Brown could

Theoretically speaking have an Affair with John Key and Marry

there is a scenario to consider? (hypothetically)

But with out access to the Tea Tapes how can we rule out that
Banks and Key were or were not having an Affair

http://youtu.be/bh_DUHCjzC0

Does it really matter? but how can we know? if they are not both gay

and if they were does it or would it matter?

Looking at this photo they look gay in the happy sense

http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/politics/6019903/Tea-tape-to-remain-private-for-now

Will we ever know?

They are both beautiful and honest forthright politicians in their own right
to be whatever they like

(hypothetically)

Funny how you think everything is an attack. I was just pointing out your rank hypocrisy from your position the day before. You are a bully.
