What's a typical day like for Jokerman?
- Thread starter Jokerman
- Start date
^I can't believe I used to be your PIC a ways back. Grow up.
Well, you never responded to my last PM about why you think non-conventional fossil fuel resource use will dwindle in the coming years. I was actually looking forward to debating the subject with you
. Its all good though.
To be fair, he did do it on the board until he was banned.

Smacky, what it boils down to is this:
Jokerman wrote one of the most informative, intelligent, incredibly well observed, analytical pieces I have ever read, not just on the Internet, but anywhere, on an incredibly complex topic that I essentially found a completely random interest in.
In case you've forgotten, that subject was the life and work of Dr. Wilhelm Reich, and your incredibly poetic, articulate contribution to that thread was "GTFO with this coon shit". Real nice.
Now, before you try to make some false point about him pasting verbatim stuff from Wikipedia or whatever you were saying before about storing information and regurgitating it or whatever, I want you to remember all the questions you've asked me about Android over the last year. So with that in mind, you KNOW how much research I do about things that I have taken an interest in.
So - let me just state for the record, that for almost a WEEK before I asked Jokerman for his opinion on Dr. Reich, I had been doing my own research. I read and studied countless articles, digested and analysed every bit of information I could find on many different websites. Looked for the in-depth thoughts of Reich's followers as well as his detractors. Watched videos, read discussions everywhere.
And you know what? That main post Joker made on the subject was more insightful than all of the other stuff put together. I learned more from it and developed a MUCH clearer picture overall.
So if you want to come in here, maligning a poster who is without question more intelligent than 90% of the people here put together, that's your prerogative. But if you're serious about this (not considering Jokerman an 'intelligent poster'), then you should know that from expressing that perspective, your opinion on anything worth having an opinion on means less than shit from this point on. It means as much to me as your opinion on healthy eating. Sorry, that was a cheap shot, but still effective.
And I honestly am shocked at the remark you made about janitors and such. Duke already shot you down on it, but if you were serious about that, you need to get out in the real world because you have a LOT of growing up to do. You seem to have a very upper middle class "entitled" view of the world like most mollycoddled Indian university students whose parents indulge their every whim, but you'd do a lot better if you realized that this attitude will get you nowhere in the real world. Once you finish university, if you haven't realized it by then it'll be too late.
Also - this:
Have you ever heard the phrase "People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones"? I like both you and Joker, but if you want to be real about it, we could make a poll and I'd literally put money on the fact that the vast majority of people on here have a much lesser view of you, than Jokerman. And frankly, even without knowing much about Jokerman, "under achieving fucktard" is one of the last things I'd ever use to describe him.
I've never met anyone as intelligent as him that isn't also motivated and highly successful. Just my own observation.
I hope you know that I'm not saying this stuff to take shots at you or anything like that. But the opinions you've expressed on this topic are so far from the truth that I honestly can't believe you're not just trolling due to being bored shitless.

You act as if I said I was smarter than Jokerman. I never said that and I don't think that. Duke's jealous of the BMWs, Jokerman makes sarcastic remarks, and you get angry when I don't agree with your lifestyle choices (and vice versa). Why is it when I fight back, I get PMs from SiGh or banned but when it continues with other members, "oh, it's just whatever. They're having fun?"
I'm all for everyone fending for themselves and taking shots as often as they're receiving them, but if we're going to be selective here on who we bash and who gets in trouble for it, the fifteen people that give a shit about this place, still, will probably half..quickly.
I'm not so naive as to judge someone simply by their occupation, but please redirect me to a janitor that changed your life. Otherwise, I'm not naive enough to find out what every single janitor I meet's whole life story is all about. Most of the ones I've seen look like they've been on drugs for most of their lives and stick to their own. Do I beat the shit out of them or make fun of them for probably not making enough for themselves? No. I simply said I would probably not take advice about life, unless it was "don't drink Drano to cure diarrhea." No shit.
It would be no different than you assuming that I was an "upper middle-class Indian" when all we've talked about is phones and SH history.
But I will admit, my remark in his thread was immature. But it's what this whole forum is about. Most of the threads in this section are regarding stupid, trivial shit and have stupid, trivial comments in them. It's what makes SH, SH.

I really hate it when people (you in this case) have to lie to get a point across. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you misunderstood the PM I had sent you. So, I'll take this opportunity to explain it here.
Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think I have ever sent you an PM before this incident. Anyways you said:
I sent you a PM saying:
What were you "fighting back" in those posts, honestly? No one (I'm assuming because I haven't) has said, "hey don't fight back, you'll get banned". No one. If you have something to say, express it. Do it like an adult. Saying you want someone to die and saying someones a faggot, that's not fighting back. That's being retarded. That's being immature.
I even mentioned that I sent you my PM after you wrote this: http://www.streethop.com/forum/our-block/237821-whats-typical-day-like-jokerman-2.html#post1080631
But I told you, I didn't say anything about that because you had content in it before & after you took "shots". Look at how Casey posts when he's upset, he goes and explains his ___________ while taking shots. He doesn't come out and say, "hey smacky, you're a piece of shit & I hope your mother dies in a car bomb". No, he doesn't. He says what he's gotta say and he takes his shots, where ever they may fit.
When have you been banned since you came back last? You haven't. So I can only assume that you meant before when you used to get banned. If you don't know why you got banned back then, then I can tell you. You were banned in the past because of being a racist, a continuous beefer, talking shit & coming back multiple times right after you were banned, under different aliases.
Believe me, if the members here just talked shit and had no content whatsoever, they'd be banned & would be getting in "trouble" for it.
But the truth is, no one banned you, this time. All I (originally) said was:
Again, I was talking about the 3 posts you made talking shit about whoever it was.

I'm not acting like that at all and I never once said that. You said you didn't consider Jokerman an intelligent poster. I said if you're serious about that, you're full of shit because it's pretty damn obvious that he is.
Nobody is being selective. You make idiotic comments and you'll get bashed for them. Everybody is subject to that. If you feel you're getting bashed more, perhaps you make more idiotic comments than anyone else. Perhaps. Or maybe you cross the line of tact by throwing out insults at every possible moment. Most people would have to be pretty damn seething to say some of the things you say, like what SiGh quoted as being unnecessary (and I happen to agree with him, for what it's worth). I mean, honestly you should try and chill more for your own good. What if you were actually really pissed off about something you felt passionately about and wanted to legitimately rant about it? How would anyone be able to tell the difference? That's just a minor observation, but generally creating beefs over minor shit shouldn't be encouraged and so regardless of my (or anyone else's) opinion, at the very least you shouldn't be surprised if you're getting reported, warned by mods, temp banned, or whatever.
Congratulations on missing the point. People aren't solely defined by what they do. For all you know, any janitor you've met could be incredibly intelligent, wise people who know more about [Subject A] than a university professor. Extreme? Yes. Unlikely? Yes. But you don't know. And to look down on someone because of their profession is extremely fucking low and elitist.
Let me ask you this, as a fellow desi, do you think the Caste system we have in India is a good thing? Because I think it's fucking disgusting and completely elitist. And I come from a high caste. People treat me like royalty in India, not just because of the fame, but because they find out I'm a Kapur. And that's just ridiculous to me.
Janitors and caste talk aside, you essentially admitted that you value people differently based upon their status in life, and that's what we have an issue with. You might argue that everyone does it to some extent, and maybe that's true. But it's definitely not something to be proud of and you shouldn't be trying to justify it.
I said that's how you were acting. I never said that's what you are, so it's not an assumption. I hope you can see the difference, because it's an important distinction to be able to make.

Good Will Hunting.
Here's what you need to do on the board. Read a post, write the first dumb, annoying remark that comes to your head, as usual, delete it, and then write something that has some meaning to it. So after my post, instead of "you've confirmed my suspicions of you being a faggot," which I couldn't relate to anything I had said in any way, you could have said something like, "not funny" or "I don't get it" and we could have talked about what's funny or not. But your only contribution here seems to be to try to piss off people. Do you hate yourself that much?
