The BMUS rage-o-meter/appreciation thread.
Edited on Sun Aug-28-05 07:30 PM by Taxloss
I appreciate that there have been a few appreciation threads lately, but that means one devoted to Beam Me Up Scottie, a woman untiring in her efforts to bring reason to DU, is needed more than ever.

Salvor said on another thread that we need a BMUS reage-o-meter. I have created one:

BMUS3:

Beamy in conversational mood in one of the quieter, more reasonable forums - A&A, UKDU, Sceptics.



BMUS 2:

The questioning BMUS. Most of the time she will be trying to establish "why are you so stupid?".



Finally, there's angry BMUS, BMUS 1. Do not mess with angry BMUS.

:rofl:

I think I owned the BMUS 1 cat once. :-)

Let's all give it up for DU's own Anne Robinson of skeptical rationalism. BMUS: Reminding DU woowoos of their intellectual failings since 2004.

Throws grenade, then RUNS...

I might reply to that little exercise in Mutual Mental Masturbation. Right now it's too late and I'm tired. And I would definitely Say Something Not Nice.

I'm really glad she's here, too.

6. I saw that thread
HATER HATER HATER!!! BWAAAHAAA HAAA HAAA (guess that means me too
:blush: )

woo woo players always hate us truthseekers....we spoil the fun...
... hee hee

reminds me of school days long ago.

Unfortuneatly all I can offer a thread like that is sarcasm and mean spiritness so I therefore refrain because I just can't wrap my brain around it.

Onager, I'm glad you are here too!!! :hi:

12. Hi Gellie, Fellow Hater!
Edited on Mon Aug-29-05 01:08 PM by onager
:hi:

Always good to see your nick in here!

I have the same problem with sarcasm and mean-spiritedness. Though as time goes on, I'm not at all sure it's a problem. I'm starting to think that humoring the Woo-Woos and Twue Bewievers is the wrong approach.

That's why I'm always so glad to see our good cop BMUS patrolling the dark alleys of DU with her Rhetorical Nightstick, ready to try and knock sense into some blathering kook.

10. Oh dear, they had to come up with a phrase soon enough.
I will have to stroke my crystals double-hard to cleanse my aura of that negative karma. I thought they would run with "coincidence theorists", but "hater sceptics"?

Let them have their warm-thoughts bath. Interesting that they must announce it to the world.

11. One of those cats
Just drives me up a wall..... Let's just say it's the poster that describes him/herself in the eyes of skeptics as dishonest etc, and is lauded by the woo-woos as having excelent debating skills. LYING ISN'T A DEBATE SKILL!!!!

:eyes:

Looks like a little preemptive hate going on there.

So funny, that comment coming from a moron who trolls the skeptic group merely to smear skeptics and call them doodyheads.

15. BMUS is my favorite angry kitty!
But I'm biased, because she once said I was hot.

She must have poor eyesight.

16. wow. . .you guys
dammit.
Made me cry.

BMUS is back minus over two years worth of pictures, music, correspondence and memories.

I've done my mourning and my anger is gone and it's not like I haven't been through this before, except on previous occasions what I lost was measured on a much larger scale.

And just a little south of me, people are losing so much more.
Kind of puts it all into perspective, you know?

Thanks for thinking about me, and thanks for the great tribute, Tax! (love the artwork!)

Am I that scary?

I sure hope so!
Image is everything to evil atheists, you know.

And I expect nothing less from the people I "ride with".
:evilgrin:

17. You're welcome. It's just nice to see you posting again.
And your compliments for my crappy "art" are superfluous to say the least.

(PS I suffered a similar loss to you a few months ago and know how you feel. It's awful.)

18. Thanks.
I had forgotten about your loss.
It really sucks.
Every day I think of more things I'll never get back.


But I feel petty when I realize how it pales in comparison to the horrible plight of the thousands in MS, LA and AL who have lost so much more.

21. Too funny.
But I certainly appreciate BMUS taking the challenge and putting these whining blowhards in thier rightful place. Glad someones been able to do the dirty work. I also appreciate that she hasn't been overly censored in doing so, as thats basicly what drove me from DU for a good period of time.

GO BMUS!!!! :toast: :bounce: :yourock:

22. Oh, I've been censored and worse.
MB and I thought we were goners recently.
Intolerance against us is still acceptable.
Complaining about it is not.
