I am 27, its undergrad. I have credits from when I was 24 too and went to school for a bit. For my associates I have about a year left, just over credits wise if I do 15 credits a quarter. I am thinking about doing 20 credits this coming quarter though and through the next year so I can transfer as soon as possible. I don't exactly know what I want to do yet though, as CS seems pretty pointless to go to school for since I already know pretty much what a CS education will get you, and I have experience to boot. I have been thinking about history and law school, but everyone I know that is an attorney right now is saying "don't!" very loudly haha.

I am also keeping my eye out for any interesting jobs. I am willing to go back to work full time, but I honestly do not know if computer stuff is actually where my true passion is and I want to run out a few courses to see where I stand career happiness wise. I have done professional programing and freelance programming for almost 11 years now and its not exactly been the most fun thing, despite myself being rather exceptional at it.

I understand where you guys are coming from with your view of his personality and your insistence on not using the ignore feature. However, I am nothing if not surprised at your inability to simply not give one shit of an iota about him. I can think back eight or nine years ago and people were still having the same argument with him, so what do you intend to accomplish by giving him the same shit time and again? Going after Nou for living off of his parents is just as bad as people who go after srussell just because they think that he is annoying and devoid of any sense of humor.

It's an internet forum, his life should mean absolutely nothing to you, and you should treat his posts just the same. But hey, if you want to continue to flog a horse that has been dead for ages, I won't try to stop you.

Originally posted by SYSTEM-J I did have him on Ignore for a while, but he posts so heavily and people quote his responses so frequently that all it was effectively pointless. In fact, not actually seeing all of his posts directly allows you to see the basic pattern of Nou's behaviour without getting bogged down in how he leads up to it. All he does, over and over, is try and bring all attention around to him by posting anything inflammatory, ignorant or idiotic enough to get everyone responding to him. You also see the resultant devastation: promising discussions become 50% "This user is on ignore", 45% people quoting the responses you've tried to block out, and 5% actual interesting, non-Nou discussion.

Don't beat yourself up. His life is a car wrecked it's hard to resist the temptation to take a peek out of morbid curiosity.

What the fuck are you talking about? I've given you clear reasons why he's so annoying and you're still blathering this same inane response. "I don't get why you give a shit about someone who is so massively disruptive to discussions on this forum you're trying to post on." If we're not supposed to give a shit about Nou, why do you give a shit about our responses to him?

Then leave? No one is forcing you to stay here.

I'm not leaving because of your behaviour you fucking piss streak. But if you're going to continue to plague this forum then the very least I will do is hammer home the utter wretchedness of your existence whenever I feel like it. I know perfectly well that for all your self-delusions, your little stories and your comebacks, you sit down sometimes in the company of your own thoughts and feel deeply fucking miserable about the conditions of your existence. And if you don't, it's only because you've never known anything better.

Nice to know. Too bad you are English and there for more utterly miserable than I could ever possibly be.


I never said I was entirely happy with my life either you idiot. A lot of assumptions here in this thread.

Anyways, glad I have such a fan base of pathetic people that apparently hate my posts so much but can do nothing but engage me time and time again. I guess I just draw out the crazy folk.

Also I really don't spend that much time here as I used to. This account has lasted longer than the Nou account and has far far far less posts. Half as many posts as Nou in twice as long a duration.

Nobody is entirely happy about their life, but you must be desperately fucking sad about yours. Keep going. Say anything you can think of about me. It may look cutting on screen but not one word of it will actually make me feel bad in any way, whereas everything I say about you is valid, irrefutable reflection of how shit your life is. Nobody, no matter how hard they front, feels good about being repeatedly reminded of bad aspects of their life, and I like contributing to your misery as a repayment for the irritation you afford me.

HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT FOR YOU. HATE. HATE.

Look, I respect your opinion and I typically agree with a lot of your posts. You're a well-spoken individual who clearly thinks before hitting submit. Right now, however, you're not quite hitting the bar. Here's why...

Great! We've identified something that you and I agree on. I've said it in the past that once an argument with him passes a certain point, he just argues for the sake of arguing. Kudos to you on nailing it. However, if you think he's just doing it for attention, why do you plan on giving him just that?

quote:

... if you're going to continue to plague this forum then the very least I will do is hammer home the utter wretchedness of your existence whenever I feel like it.

So why not just ignore him? Shouldn't the satisfaction you get from what you state in the quote below be enough to satisfy you?

You're a special person. I take sustenance in the amount of emotional damage I apparently deliver to you haha.

La de da da, nothing to see here...
