WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE TINFOIL/ART BELL-TYPE THREAD????
11-2-2002 | LUIS GONZALEZ

Posted on 11/02/2002 4:43:08 PM PST by Luis Gonzalez

I'm wondering what your all-time tinfoil or Art Bell-like thread in FR has been. You know, the five thousand words paragraphs, single spaced, no capitals, screed by those expecting the end of the world, the take over of the world by the Illuminati, or the return of Walter Mondale...wait, that may actually happen.

FreeRepublic has been a source of news and commentary, but it also provides information on some of the most unusual topics out there.

"I hate, loathe , and utterly despise ALL tinfoil hat threads ! Ditto for all of the cretins who actually believe the junk."

Excuse me?

Luis, dear friend, you've managed to lose me completely. What is that picture supposed to mean and who are those people ? :-)

I am working on "The Democrats Staged The Haitian Landing in Miami" one.

Except, it soounds way to believeable to be considered tinfoil.

Your own hubris proves that you, instead of me, has made you into what you seem to think I am. And as to " thinking ", NO the tinfoilers don't T-H-I-N-K ; they just parrot other people's garbage.

The problem is, there isn't any such thing as "tinfoil" these days. It's ALUMINUM FOIL. And as far as I've seen, there hasn't been too many real discussions on the benefits of aluminum foil. You in actuallity appear to label any unpopular view or obscure fact as a "tinfoil" subject. I haven't seen you on too many threads as far as I can recollect. Why don't you give me an example of what you're even talking about so we can discuss this more intelligently..

As you should know, here, on FR, any thread or post that has something to do with bizarre conspiracy theories, no moon walk, etc., is called " tinfoil ". Since it is now patently obvious, to me at least, that you only want to bait / insult me, your replies are hence against the stated rulesd for posting.

For you to claim that " you haven't seen me on too many threads ", is a blatant canard and preposterous ! You and I have argued on many , many, MANY threads and I have been a prolific poster for quite some time; far longer than you've been a member. Like you, I also lurked ( for almost a year ) and have been a full fledged member here, for over four years !

I've mentioned a few items, and you've chosen to ignore them . This thread is NOT about actually debating tinfoil garbage. Are you having a difficult time with reading comprehension, or just looking for a flame war ?

You don't think the truth is out there at all, do you?

I have to say that it is refreshing to be on a thread where there is a flame war going on, and not be a participant, or even (more oftern than not) the focus of it.

BTW, I am now going to avoid your threads, as though they contained the Bubonic Plague ! Every bloody time I reply to one, I attract the weirdos, as though I were " weirdo flypaper ". LOL

How do you do Newbie? Nice to meet you dear! :-)

Ps: The picture you asked about, unless you were using your wonderful humor is Scully and Mulder from the infamous X Files. Gone, but sadly, not forgotten.

Yep, that's me, little miss newbie. ROTFLMSO !

Thanks for the info. I never saw the show, so how was I to know ? I tend to be rather oblivious to things I've no interest in. :-)

When camping in the dark woods, some kids like staying up late telling ghost stories. Art Bell expands that campfire circle. Not usually enjoyed by those who only admit the daylight half of their nature, but entertaining for many of those who do. Kinda like some of the tinfoil threads on FR. Among those, I enjoyed the one about the world conference of ontologists discussing the discovery that time had developed a stutter.

Spot on target! That's it exactly! (But I think the story-telling on Art's show could be a bit better!).

Yes. We are at present cursed with a poor quality of crackpots. A sign of cultural decay, perhaps.

Yeah, threads like Waco, OKC, TWA800. The threads where some SERIOUS evidence has been presented, yet people who are "true believers(tm)" of their own infallibility continue to claim their isn't any evidence.. I get it.

Since it is now patently obvious, to me at least, that you only want to bait / insult me, your replies are hence against the stated rulesd for posting.

I think you're being a bit paranoid here. I was simply asking you what exactly you regard as a tinfoil topic. If you see that as an attack, perhaps you should go get some Reynolds Wrap...

If I wanted to get technical, you've attacked everyone who's ever disagreed with you already. In post #79 you wrote;

I hate, loathe , and utterly despise ALL tinfoil hat threads ! Ditto for all of the cretins who actually believe the junk. :-(

If you despise them so much, why are you posting on one? Stating that you hate everybody who believes "the junk" is a bit of a disingenious method of attack I'd think...

For you to claim that " you haven't seen me on too many threads ", is a blatant canard and preposterous !

Sorry nopardons, I don't remember any specific arguments between us. We might have jostled in years past, but if we did it's been so long ago I simply don't remember.

You and I have argued on many , many, MANY threads and I have been a prolific poster for quite some time; far longer than you've been a member.

Well pat yourself on the back you old salt.. :)

Like you, I also lurked ( for almost a year ) and have been a full fledged member here, for over four years !

Don't get so riled up. Are you insulted that I don't recall our prior encounters? I do seem to remember your name vaguely, but again I don't remember exactly what we had discussed.

I've mentioned a few items, and you've chosen to ignore them . This thread is NOT about actually debating tinfoil garbage. Are you having a difficult time with reading comprehension, or just looking for a flame war ?

You are a prime example of the phrase "getting your panties in a bunch". If you know me so well, you should know that I don't start wars, I finish them. I was only trying to make conversation. If you want to go back to your hole in the sand, be my guest..
