Imagine my shock when I followed a link to this site and ran across the
tholenbot!

First usenet. Now blog comments. What's next, a guest appearance on the
Late Show?

"Barack Obama has polarized this nation!"

"What does your pontification have to do with OS/2, Leno?"

"The shooting in Tucson proves we need stricter gun control."

"Classic unsubstantiated and erroneous claim."

How rude.

"Lew <> writes: [implied insult deleted]!
What does your [implied insult deleted] of Surprise have to do with
OS/2, Lew?"

Nothing important, since the implied insult in question is factually wrong.

How can a PLONK be factually wrong, Surprise, and what does
your complaint have to do with OS/2?

That should be obvious, tholenbot. Suppose someone said "PLONK" to me
without actually killfiling me, tholenbot. Then the "PLONK" would be
factually wrong, tholenbot.

Furthermore, I never claimed a "PLONK" was factually wrong, tholenbot. I
claimed an implied insult was factually wrong, tholenbot. A "PLONK" may
have implied an insult, but that insult is then a separate thing from
the "PLONK" itself, tholenbot. For instance, the "I have killfiled you"
declarative meaning may be factually accurate, tholenbot, while at the
same time the "you write nothing worth reading" subtext may be
incorrect, tholenbot.

Someone whack the tholenbot to get it unstuck!
