I actually kind of liked DK. Can we have him back?
Im told it would require an offering  of a whole pig (APPLE in its mouth and all) and even them maybe not

o and acceptance of food rations, even if you only really eat once a day.
Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

has a history of stalking women,
tries to justify rape

I hope we dont get him back
Through me the way to the city of woe, Through me the way to everlasting pain, Through me the way among the lost.
Justice moved my maker on high.
Divine power made me, Wisdom supreme, and Primal love.
Before me nothing was but things eternal, and eternal I endure.
Abandon all hope, you who enter here.
Dante

Cmon Nigel. Take it easy on the guy. He knows what he's talking about.

He's an asshole.  End of story.  You might know something AMAZING, but if you deliberately piss off the people you are trying to tell it to, you may as well not have bothered.

Fuck him.  He came in trolling, he can leave the same way, as far as I am concerned.

In the PD, "fnord" had no meaning, and THAT was the point of it.

Funny, but that was the point I was trying to make with my critique of Welcome to Prison.

I don't want you to be angry, but I also probably don't care if you are.

From my point of view, which I'm sure you're deeply concerned with (see above), I took the first punch.  I replied evenly to Nasturtiums, and this whole "fuck you for trying to tell us what fnords are" meme that's getting passed around is a direct result of the questions they asked and what I gaged to be holes in their knowledge, after fucking asking them.

I will, as I think I've shown, respond evenly to reasonable points made.  This isn't an invitation with an expiration date: whenever you want to start over without jumping to the conclusions that appeal to your rage and boredom, I'd welcome it.  In the meantime, I will respond in the tone I am addressed in.  You don't need to be a bubblegum witch to see where that road leads.

Fronds are very pretty:
