The Sandbox - filled with tripe from the RAT WING

He crudely insults the intelligence of everyone with whom he disagrees, and in a juvenile and obnoxious way. Originally Posted by CaptainMidnight

Well, let me see if I've got this straight, Doove. You're telling me to STFU, yet the only reason you entered this thread was to call me a narcissist for the umpteenth time? LOL!

Still, even you are nowhere near the asshole your little buddy is. Rare are the cases where he posts an original, cogent argument or opinion, and rarer still are those where he does so without accompanying it with obnoxious, incoherent rants, and a lot of name-calling.

Little Stevie should stay the hell away from this place if he's just going to attack and engage in "hit-and-run" debate. He posted that I had made a "mistake" in a thread discussing recovery from recessions, but continually refuses to say what it was. He can rest assured that if he ever pokes his nose back into this forum again, he will be called to account.

But when your name comes up, Doove, it's hard to forget this "golden moment" from Sandbox archives. Just take a look at post nos. 12 and 20:

Unbelievable! That's probably the most ridiculously botched attempt to use logic and reason that I've seen anywhere in this forum. It's always a good idea to show that you have some idea of what the hell you're talking about when claiming that you've "debunked" someone's statement!

I'll take a wild guess here: You never disappointed your fellow students by fucking up the grading curve in a college calculus class, did you?

But just go ahead and keep on truckin'.

Revel in your ignorance!

At least he posts up his own thoughts you dimwit.....rather than the mindless stream of propaganda cut and pastes from the same winger websites you try to feed us every day.

Talk about "elevating the conversation"....a rambling screed from Little Stevie's basement...................... all dressed up in purple fonts ! Originally Posted by Whirlaway

I doubt it.....


If you wanted to discuss substance you would respond accordingly............instead you prefer to ignore the facts...

You are a troll; following my posts and then offering up nothing of substance in response.

Well, let's see.

Doove has been calling me a narcissist for how long now, and in how many posts? How many articles on narcissism has he linked or copied-and-pasted over the last year into posts directed at me? I have no idea, but suffice it to say that it's a lot!

He entered this thread expressly for the purpose of starting up with this again. In his multiple posts, he mentioned nothing else. And it's so important to him that he get in all the narcissism stuff that he doesn't even care if his absolutely stupefying level of ignorance is placed on stark display once again (as he knew it would be, since I've told him that before). Amazing!

But then, no one is obsessed.

Right?

It looks like Little Stevie has gone mute. Were he to post again, I'm sure he'd like to thank Doove for keeping the thread alive, and for deflecting attention from his own obnoxiousness and failure to back up his false claim that I made a "mistake" in a thread addressing recovery from recessions. He certainly doesn't want anyone to notice his penchant for letting his impetuousness and his obnoxiousness write checks that his low-wattage brain can't cash. The problem he has, of course, is that everyone who reads these threads already noticed.

And that must be a bit embarrassing.

Obsess much?

His loquaciousness is surpassed only by the meaninglessness of his posts and his incurable narcissism.

Hey Cap'n Kangaroo, why don't you go to Europe and help them over there? Barack's got this one turned around without a single suggestion from your overactive mouth.

Now go back and point out the "mistake" you claim I made and attempted to "cover up," dumbass. And be specific!

You understand virtually nothing about economics, as you have demonstrated time and time again in many threads.

And when you get just a moment, go here:

You have a little bit of unfinished business to take care of!

The Commerce Department reported this morning that the U.S. economy grew in the 4th quarter of 2012 at a "sizzling" 0.4% annual rate! The "recovery" we've enjoyed since midyear 2009 is setting a record for post-World War II recoveries. (Well, OK. Not the right kind of record, but it's still a record. Right?)

For those willing to read and learn, here's a thread that covers the topic of fiscal stimulus in some depth. In fact, it was started by Little Stevie himself, although it's quite apparent that he learned nothing from the discussion:

http://www.eccie.net/showthread.php?t=353036&highlight

Please note particularly post nos. 19, 21, and 34. (I have written extensively on the subject, and most of that was copied and pasted from stuff I had written just within the preceeding 12-18 months.)

Of course, some choose to simply remain in a zone of willful ignorance. But for those willing to read and take a reasoned look at the facts, the points I covered should give you a pretty good idea of why the ARRA ($800+ billion dollar fiscal "stimulus" package of 2009) was ineffective medicine for the economy, and simply wasn't remotely worth the cost.

And now, whatever miniscule benefits the measure might have very temporarily provided in 2009-2010 have gone up in a puff of smoke, and we have little to show for all the resources squandered.

But the addition to the debt overhang with which we will have to deal in the coming years remains.

That's why the ARRA was a significant net negative for the economy.

You're right, i don't. Because every time you show that you need to spend 4 or 5 posts (1368 words and counting) trying to convince everyone how much smarter you are than me, using the same 1 or 2 dubious examples from a year ago, you pretty much prove my point.

And i got $1000 that says you go from your home computer, to your work computer, to your smart phone, "liking" your own posts.

I just wanted to note the utter ridiculousness of your obsession with making that claim that you've spent so many posts on, here and in other threads. It's up to you to figure out what sort of psychological malady you're troubled by, and that motivates your enduring obsession over this issue.

Some sort of deep-seated self esteem issue, perhaps?

Besides, you were already 0-for-1 in instances where you projected that imaginary $1,000, remember? Last year, you posted that you had a grand that said that I voted for George W. Bush twice. Wrong!

Perhaps you should try to pick up some extra cash by doing something other than placing stupid bets!

LMAO @ Cap'n Kangaroo! Is that all you've got, you stupid moron? I knew from the very first that your charge of plagiarism was the wailing of a madman. Now run along and wallow in the errors you make. I set the fucking article off and merely left off the link and came back later but you had made your anemic "gotcha" post.

Like I said, had I wanted to conceal the source or claim it was mine, I WOULD NOT HAVE MADE IT SO OBVIOUS.

Then you have the stupidity and audacity to claim the stimulus did not head off a depression.

You know, you are really lacking some basic intelligence about economics and the world's various markets and currency systems.

You're not worth even this response so feast on this last morsel, stupid.

News flash! NO ONE CARES about your childish rants except YOU. Go play in front of a mirror!

Have you always been like this or did it just start since you started using Cartoon Network as your news source?

Be careful Stevie, he might start posting pictures of pee pee and poo poo!
