My only heroes are Noam Chomsky and the late, great Hunter S. Thompson (RIP).

I won't get into this debate again. All I'll say is the rate of success is notoriously low, it's not endorsed by any reliable scientific organizations, among those who report success most only report cessation of homosexual activity and not feelings, and, perhaps most importantly, it addresses an activity which shouldn't even be viewed as a problem.

Notice how every thread this guy is involved in becomes a shouting match? That's what a troll does.

oh, I know - believe it or not, he's actually being a bit more civilized here than usual. On yahoo, he has had dozens of i.d's deleted and banned for violating the TOS. There have been - to my knowledge - two different websites created just to try to avoid him. I'm in two yahoo groups that were formed to keep him away, and he made up troll versions of members' i.d.'s to gain entrance.

he's really kinda sad. but that doens't make him any more pleasant to be around.

Wrong. I just respond in kind.

Why do you have all those gay looking guys on your every post?

I'm flattered - which two websites were they?

And there's nothing sadder than an old man who won't reconsider his decision to become a homosexual

Shut the fuck up and get off our forum. All I hear out of you is ranting, not debate.

Rammstein? They're a German techno-metal band that sometimes relies on shock in their live concerts (partial nudity, gratuitous usage of flamethrowers, elaborate onstage acts, etc.), as many bands do. It's not like Dee Snyder or Marilyn Manson were never called gay, either, but they are not. It's only an act.

Actually many of the guys in R+ are married with children. I know the vocalist, second from the left, has three.

And no, it's not trolling. It's called a signature and it's commonplace.
