shun?

Post #125,342 by rcareaga 11/12/03 11:47:53 AM Reply	shun? It's a sad week when we lose karsten one day and the phil-bot returns with its monotonous buzz the next. Since any responses, much less invective and abuse, are so much glucose to the thing, perhaps starvation might be the better approach. cordially, Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist.

True, one wants to respond to some of the stratospheric imbecilities, the ludicrous misstatements...but content is immaterial to the creature; it requires only the fact of a response, even an automated response, for sustenance. Starve it. Not so much as a one-syllable word. cordially, [edit:clarification] Die Welt ist alles, was der Fall ist. Edited by rcareaga Nov. 12, 2003, 02:58:12 PM EST Expand All History

Post #125,533 by dmarker 11/13/03 4:28:57 PM Reply	That has also been my biggest issue And am in agreement re shun - been practicing it for a while. I had come to realise that by using bitter sarcasm, had been more or less deflecting from the imbecility of its goals & content.
