Larry Correia introduced us to the common Internet Shit Gibbon. I will allow his description to speak for itself.

You ever post something on social media, and then have some random stranger blunder in screaming at you for wrongthink? You might have attracted a Common Internet Shit Gibbon. You can tell when you are dealing with a Common Internet Shit Gibbon by the following clues:

– They start out by being total dicks to everyone, attack, attack, attack, but when responded to in kind, demand civility and whine about “tone”.

– They just make shit up and throw it at the wall to see what sticks.– They are really pathetic, but oblivious to it. In fact, they think they’re brilliant, even while being super dumb.

– When you waste you time refuting any of their bullshit, they immediately create new bullshit. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

Their bullshit is endless. Your time is not. So when you discover that you’ve got a CISG infestation, the best bet is to just mock them until you get bored, and then block them.

Last night, I had to drive to Miami. While there, the wife and I had date night. When I returned to the hotel, I found a list of comments, some taking me to task, demanding that I post his comments, and all of them calling me names.

Apparently, Cassandra missed the part where this blog is my property. It’s also apparent that I have a CISG infestation. I was looking forward to a discussion of the merits of my hypothesis on the issue that so offended him, but I just don’t think he is capable. He has become tiresome, I have wasted enough time with his nonsense, and frankly he has pissed me off. So I will drop the fifth ban in this blog’s history on his ass.

So Cassandra, just go away. My property, my rules. You apparently have no argument and are deliberately trying to appear picked on so you can claim the cachet of being the victim. So begone, asshole, and in case you were wondering, THAT is an insult NOT an ad hominem. An ad hominem is a personal insult used to discredit an idea. I don’t give a shit about your ideas, I just want to insult you.

That also isn’t hypocrisy, because the ‘no personal attacks’ rule is for comments, not for me. See, I own the place and can do as I please.

Now piss off.

Feels more comfy, hanging out someplace those idiots aren’t allowed.

Thanks for posting the link to Correia’s site. I had managed to miss that and needed the chuckle this morning.

Say it ain’t so, I just can’t believe it turned out this way. He seemed like such a nice boy, with so much potential. Tsk tsk.

Heh. Larry’s newish term for the perennial victim complex/online shitpoaster antagonist is pretty good, so credit where it’s due. But I maintain that we already had a perfectly good and serviceable C word to describe the type under discussion. Besides, there is a such a thing as over-specialization. Just sayin’.

OT: any news on Big Country?

Larry does have a way with words.

!!! I remember cracking up reading that when it was first posted — The Common Internet Shit Gibbon. Ever so well done. And now I get to see how quickly Dr. Pepper dries on a keyboard. Damn you, just damn you! 🙂

I always assumed cassy was a women with blue hair not a guy. Either way wont miss them, brought nothing to the table but screeching.

If i want to hear nonsense screaching i’ll drive to the city and go watch the howler monkeys in the zoo.

I think these sorts are what the late, great, Bob Barker had in mind as he always always reminded his viewers during his sign-off:

“Don’t forget to have your pets (gibbons) spayed or neutered!”

Timeless advice seems to me.
