Usually you should only comment on something after you read it and understand it.

Secondly, all willful action, even lying, have motivations.

Third, I never said I was a "tough guy". And that's not exactly what I meant when I wrote that. It doesn't matter, because nothing really frightens me, but maybe if you had looked at my IG you would've known what I was talking about.

Fourth, the pity is overtaking the merriment. You've got deep rooted psychological issues. You've been trolling since I joined.
How sad that I threaten you so much.

"Usually you should only comment on something after you read it and understand it."

That's nice, Jimbo. Maybe someday you'll take your own advice. Maybe you'll be able to differentiate between reading and commenting.

"Secondly, all willful action, even lying, have motivations."

You asked, "what's my motivation to lie?".

If I didn't suggest you had a motivation to lie, then I'm certainly not obligated to explain why you would.

It's always fun when you try these attempts at being a "smarty pants". You always trip over such distinctions

"Third, I never said I was a "tough guy"."

Here we go, Jimbo's famous "I never said". :D Over-literalism isn't a defense.

What I said remains true. You never "said" it, nowhere you did "claim" it, all the while advancing just the opposite. I'm saying you act like one, specifically an internet tough guy.

"And that's not exactly what I meant when I wrote that."

For a guy with a Master's degree in English, you're a selectively inarticulate chap aren't you? Sure you didn't. ;-)

You didn't say it, nowhere did claim it, that's not exactly what you meant when you wrote that, it's always another excuse when someone calls your bluff or corners you on a contradiction.

"It doesn't matter, because nothing really frightens me, "

Here we go, It's Daredevil Jimmy. He's "The Man Without Fear". Oh yeah, we talkin' hard-core internet tough guy here, folks. Jimbo ain't scared a' nuffin'.

The facepalm is entirely intentional. Followed by another round of vague claims how that wasn't what you exactly meant when you wrote it.

"but maybe if you had looked at my IG you would've known what I was talking about."

"my IG"

There's no proof it's yours. You know it. I know it. Easy solution...

Post a selfie. Time stamped with your user name. Let's find out.

All together now.... Let's Do The Time Stamp Agaiiin! (sung to the classic Rocky Horror Picture Show tune).

...and it won't happen again becuase backing down is what internet tough guys do, especially when nothing really frightens them.

...except when they have to make good on their swaggering.

"Fourth, the pity is overtaking the merriment. You've got deep rooted psychological issues."

...said the internet tough guy who won't post a photo showing why I wouldn't dare laugh at him.

...said the scholar with the Master's degree in English who needs help understanding "without" vs "with out".

Are you going to clam a Ph.D in psychiatry as well, jimbo? :P

"How sad that I threaten you so much."

That's a Non Sequitur fallacy, btw. :D

No, actually, it's rather obvious that I threaten you, it's a completely logical conclusion to make after reading your 500 word ranting. And it's the only conclusion, besides your stupidity, that makes sense.

There's no proof a timestamped pic of "me" would prove to you anything either. You've created a situation where you think can always win by not accepting logic, reason, reality. If you're not stupid, you're a hell of a postmodernist.

All this tough guy talk comes from you. I threaten you.

Anyway I did some research for you. Take advantage. Or ask your mom to commit you. Whatever the situation is there.

No, "actually, it's rather obvious that" you're an internet tough-guy who isn't going to post anything backing his tough-guy routine no matter how many times I goad you.

"it's a completely logical conclusion to make after reading your 500 word ranting."

Uh oh... look out everyone. Jimbo is going to try "logic". As I said, errors take more to correct than they need to make. That's what "logic" gets you, Jimbo. :D

"There's no proof a timestamped pic of "me" would prove to you anything either."

But it WOULD oblige me to make good on my claim. If I say I'd laugh in your face, then I must post a time-stamped photo backing that up.

"You've created a situation where you think can always win by not accepting logic, reason, reality."

Conflating your errors with the genuine articles going by those names ain't helping. What invariably happens is I use logic, reason, and reality to disprove your claims, and then you baww that it's "500 word ranting".

"All this tough guy talk comes from you. I threaten you."

I'm calling a spade for being a spade. A spade doesn't threaten me, but that doesn't change it's still a spade.

You've apparently built some kind of identity around needing to threaten people, which explains all your tough-guy talk. It isn't working.

Hey, thanks for the research! I did some too! I figured I'd get everyone following along up to speed with all this talk about instagram accounts and photos and such

Here's some reality...

I don't care about you making good on your claim. And whether you're as good as your word or not is irrelevant, as you could easily fake a picture. But the thrust is idgaf about what you look like.

There is no logic, or reason to anything you say. At bottom is your insecurity (jealousy) and you feeling threatened.

Of course I didn't threaten you. Not one bit. You're just too stupid to interpret anything other than an attack on you (insecure).

My IG: What can I tell you? You should've seen my picture when I told you to. I mean you really have a crush on me. I'm flattered but I don't swing that way. Plus I'm probably much older than you, of course I know there are real deviates out there. I'm sure there's a website somewhere that can give you what you need.

You should collect all your nonsensical, insane, rabbit-hole musings and put in in book form. I'll suggest the title: "The Full Blown Psychotic: A Look at a Child's Descent into Madness"

"I don't care about you making good on your claim."

You should care about making good on your own. That's really where all this started.

"as you could easily fake a picture."

It's a LOT easier for me to post a real one just as it is for you. After all, there are safeguards, unique to our faith.

We could, as Catholics, both publicly vow to post photos with any falsehood counting as blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (the one sin Christ Himself said won't be forgiven).

"But the thrust is idgaf about what you look like."

Good for you. Obivously you don't DGAF about making good on your internet tough-guy claims, either.

"And if you saw me, laughing is the last thing you'd do. That is a guarantee."

There's only one way to find out. Instead, you'll just supply another round of wimpy evasions "because nothing really frightens me,"

...except for delivering the goods on your tough-guy routine.

"There is no logic, or reason to anything you say."

Empty claims are a favoured tactic of yours. Heck, you can't even discuss what's required to play a piano without falling on your face. :P

...with me, positively oozing Christian charity and good-will, helpfully correcting your errors again and again.

"At bottom is your insecurity (jealousy) and you feeling threatened."

...from a TERRIFYING empty Instagram account, amirite? Those pics... "women want him, men want to be him" Oh yes, Jimbo's just sooo threatening.

"My IG: What can I tell you? You should've seen my picture when I told you to."

:D :D :D :D

bawwww.... No photos, if there EVER were. :D :D :D

Your BS-O-Meter is over 9000, Jimbo.

"I mean you really have a crush on me."

This is a variation of the "you're obsessed" gimmick you resort to whenever you've face-planted yourself in another debate.

Look at mah IG!

(somebody does)

U gotta crush on me, so flatterd!

...and this from the guy who tosses the word "nonsensical" around so casually. :D

I never made a claim I'd post a time-stamped picture of myself. I never claimed I was a tough guy. In fact, I said "if you saw me" or something similar. You took that as a threat. It wasn't. And I've been more than generous entertaining your stupidity.

I gave you my IG so you could see what I looked like. You were so hot and bothered about it.

And I didn't blaspheme the Holy Spirit. See how nuts you are? Of course not. Trying to make an appeal to your Catholicity is transparent and shameful. And invoking the Holy Spirit to basically help you lie is exactly what blaspheming the Holy Spirit is.

Who has scoured this site to troll one person with 2,000 word meandering? Not me. You have a fixation, and obsession with me. Sorry , it's true.

I use the words that fit. You're nonsensical. Other words that work: crazy, psychotic, stupid, disingenuous, etc.

"I never this, I never that..."

You never nothing, you fraud. :D Big talk until you get called on it. Then it's another variation of your fave retort: "I never said..."

"In fact, I said "if you saw me" or something similar."

Liar. Now it's "or something similar" which is another tacit "I never said..."

I quoted you directly. I've been quoting you directly, word for word, bolding them no less just because they're so lulzy.

"You took that as a threat. It wasn't."

No, I took it as empty bragging, from a spineless internet tough-guy. I took it as something that you wouldn't back up if I challenged you to do so.

...and that's exactly what it turned out to be. Nothing. A big claim from a little man who can't back it up.

"And I've been more than generous entertaining your stupidity."

This is a variation of your affected-superiority gimmick. You're good at talking big, but like always it's as empty as your IG account.

Yes, Jimbo, I just employed a simile.

"I gave you my IG so you could see what I looked like. You were so hot and bothered about it."

...and we're back to Jimbo's "romantic" gimmick. You've got some serious reading comprehension issues if you perceive anything of the sort in my writing. Issues further evidenced by this ... weirdness...

"And I didn't blaspheme the Holy Spirit. See how nuts you are?"

Speaking of reading comprehension... Read this sentence aloud, Mr. Master's Degree In English. It's what I wrote:

--"We could, as Catholics, both publicly vow to post photos with any falsehood counting as blasphemy against the Holy Spirit (the one sin Christ Himself said won't be forgiven)."--

Now quote the part where I accused you of blaspheming the Holy Spirit.

I presented a fool-proof way to ensure (if we are true to our Catholic faith) we could verify each other's photos.

Where are you reading an accusation in that? I have to give you credit. That stopped me for a moment from the sheer size of the error.

"Trying to make an appeal to your Catholicity is transparent and shameful."

If you read carefully, it's an appeal to the Catholicity of us both. I have no illusions about your malice, or your lack of charity, or your spite, but I though -maybe- you might still retains some notion of faith.

"And invoking the Holy Spirit to basically help you lie is exactly what blaspheming the Holy Spirit is."

If you truly believed that, you'd understand why I suggested it in the first place! But this is another evasion of yours, another deflection. You're not going to post any photos.

What you ARE going to do is re-check the word-count on my replies, call me a troll or some other pointless thing, and fall back on yet another variation of "I never said..." and cap it all off your "romantically obsessed" gimmick.

You've got a limited play-book, Jimbo. Name-calling's a big part of it but facts aren't.

Up your game.

I am a fraud for correcting your lies. Oooook.

And it wasn't bragging. Again, your entire analysis is distorted.

I do not have a superiority complex. You do. You can't live in a world where someone disagrees with you.

This is a fact: you are obsessed with me. Why that is may be questioned, true, but you've spent the entire night writing manifestos to me. And I don't have to actually count the words. It's obvious you are going nuts on the keyboard.

This is hard to explain to the stupid, but here goes: your pretense of caring what the Holy Spirit thinks of you is by default a blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. You are using the Holy Spirit to violate the 8th commandment. Really evil stuff there.

There is no "game". You write lies, I correct them.

Time for me to sleep. I was reading a very hard book on German philosophy , but it was a pleasure compared to reading your hair-on-fire diatribes.

"I am a fraud for correcting your lies. "

Claiming something is a lie and showing it to be one is your big problem. You're great at the former and fail at the latter. .

This a popular "summarizing" tactic, better known as "outright falsehood". :D

"And it wasn't bragging. Again, your entire analysis is distorted."

Wash rinse repeat. Fabricated claim, no proof, just your say-so.

"I do not have a superiority complex. You do."

Should I count how many posts you've made tonight? Their word-count? :D

"This is a fact: you are obsessed with me."

What is a fact is you fabricate claims you can't prove and then repeat them as though you had.

"you've spent the entire night writing manifestos to me."

Here comes Captain Projection and he's wrong again.

I've spent the entire night working for a living, earning a pay-check. Replying to you has been for laughs. I've said this before, Jimbo. You flatter yourself. Your silly twaddle requires zero effort to flatten.

"And I don't have to actually count the words."

So you... (wait for it) you made it all up! :D Meaning you lied every time you've posted a word-count. Oh, rasacal! :D Here I was giving you more credit than you deserve! Instead you lied, just like you do with all your claims!

Surprise, surprise, surprise.

"It's obvious you are going nuts on the keyboard."

Technically true. Just not here. Like you can't imagine. End of the month is looming...

"your pretense of caring what the Holy Spirit thinks of you is by default a blasphemy of the Holy Spirit."

Accusations of "pretense" are meaningless absent proof. But that's all you ever do. You make things up without any proof. I told you this before, saying something doesn't make it true.

Case in point:

"You write lies, I correct them."

Another false claim, absent proof as usual.

"I was reading a very hard book on German philosophy ,"

Sure you were. And last time it was "insomnia" and next time you'll claim constipation. :P

@Jmy1975 This person is a total troll, likes to talk as if he was a traditional Catholic, even though he says stuff like "Jesus chose to take the race of the jews" and other jewels like that. The person is here to disrupt and bother all those commenting on the videos, articles, cartoons, etc. Maybe, the best course of action is not engaging someone who has time to write treatises without end attacking everyone at the same time..... at any time, really, day and night, twisting whatever you say (one time, I told this person that it was a professional troll, and their comeback was astonishing: they complained of me saying that they collect money for doing this). It's incredible, nothing normal, the fights have no proportion and has no qualms about insulting, trying to degrade, twist, etc....... Just so you know, because, I think you are relatively new commemting on this page. This is part of the landscape. I hope God free, enlighten and bless this person, Amén

This person is a total troll, likes to talk as if he was a traditional Catholic,

...and today @eticacasanova bears false witness against his neighbour. Well done! Right before Sunday, too.

"even though he says stuff like "Jesus chose to take the race of the jews"

This is what happens when someone doesn't speak English and is translating what I DID say into Spanish, remembers it "vaguely", summarizes it, and then translating it back into English from whatever he remembers in Spanish.

"I told this person that it was a professional troll, and their comeback was astonishing: they complained of me saying that they collect money for doing this"

See my last point.

Try a simple cut-and-paste next time, etica. It will keep you from such mistakes.

"The person is here to disrupt and bother all those commenting on the videos, articles, cartoons, etc."

A lie repeated does not become true. But I -am- (honestly) impressed with your dedication to repeating it.

In all truth, in over twenty five years online, I have never seen such deep hatred and vindictiveness ANYWHERE to match what so-called "Catholics" like you have on GTV. Yes, I was online when the internet was entirely text-based and GTV -still- remains one of the all-time top three "toxic" online environments. 4chan's /pol/ is not even close. The people there don't pretend to be Christians, much less Catholics.Their hate is honest and indiluted by false piety.

Your're not the only one here to be sure, @eticacasanova . But you're a fine example, just the same.

"The fights have no proportion and has no qualms about insulting, trying to degrade, twist, etc..."

Eticacassanova complaining to Jimy1975 about this. :D

And all you complain about is me? Nobody ever told you it takes two to have an argument? Have you read this interchange with a clear head? Double-standard? Selective focus? Seeing only what you want to see and ignoring the rest? Yes, you betray yourself.

The irony, the irony. Thanks for the laugh, etica. I was worried when I saw your reply you were going to be an occasion for sin. Not this time, not you. This reply does not merit a visit to the confessional. :D

"I hope God free, enlighten and bless this person, Amén"

If you mean Jmy1975, you're free to pray for whomever you please

If you mean me, I will thank you to skip the false prayers, the false humility, the false displays of your "prayer life".

Your calls to The Almighty are drowned beneath the venom dripping from your fangs.

False prayers like yours are an abomination and I would rather not be named in them. Truth.

@Jmy1975 As I say, a troll, not worth the effort. We got a pray gor the person, as our, somehow, neighbor (I mean, in gloria.tv). But what I learned is that I don't need to answer every insult a random person utters to me on the street. Somehow it's a little bit entertaining, I mean, to read the insults of this person. But, as Ramón y Cajal said to his grandson: I don't waste my time with every opinion of every person I gwt to stumble upon. Or, as Saint Josemaría said: don't waste your enerhies and your time, that are Gid's in throwing stones to dogs that bark at you along the way, despise them

It's so nice to see Jimmy's finally made a friend on GTV. Does my heart good. to have brought you two together.

After all, few bonds are as strong as a shared hatred. :-)
