Lunartic

With Andrew Bolt still on holiday, Bolt obsessed Crikey media analyst Jeremy Sear searches the media to find an earth-shatteringly important matter of contention: did NASA first deliver humans to the moon in 1968 (the Apollo 8 lunar orbit mission) or 1969 (the Apollo 11 moon landing)?

Reliably wrong, Jeremy insists 1969 is the correct answer. By the way, the offending Age article is about a Saturn V rocket built entirely of Lego. Now there's a story worth analyzing.

The king of nitpickers nitpicks about another nitpicker's nitpicking.

You couldn't make up this stuff.

John, commenting on nits is a fair reason to nit pick.

But you're another nit who should'nt pick. Because your'e just not that slick.

Frankly your'e an ignorant dick.

PS I didn't use any big words ( as you say Johnny ) as I didn't want to confuse you.

You might say they don't exist. And then I'd have to burn my dictionary.

All the best half wit.

Well since we're on the subject of nitpicking...

But you're (sic) another nit who should'nt (sic) pick. Because your'e (sic) just not that slick. Frankly your'e an ignorant dick. (sic)

Were these misplaced apostrophes part of some oblique comedy routine? A magically recurring typo? Or are you just grammatically incompetent?

Every time you open your mouth to call me stupid, a whole lot more stupid falls out. You are the comedy gift that keeps on giving.

Is this the best you can do 'John'? Seriously. Apostrophe typos?

That's not bad for someone who has a limited vocab and denies well known words exist when a 5 second google search would have erased your smugness.

I had a recollection you frowned on typo sifting but apparently the rules have changed as you see fit, those double standards you keep dribbling about.

You didn't understand the point of Dan's post did you?

You don't do irony?

Can you spell irony?

Have you still got that dictionary link?

PS little thought for you, have you tried to write with an Ipad before?

Can you spell Ipad?

lots of lols at your cost.

All the best half wit.

Just demonstrating to the paltry few who bother reading this blog, Uneducated Flatus, that while you hurl around unfounded insults like "illiterate" and "half-wit", your own command of English grammar is negligible at best. There is nothing like a man (stretching the term in your case) who accuses others of what he is himself guilty plainly guilty of.

You didn't understand the point of Dan's post did you?

It was JF Beck's post, not Dan's. Your comprehension skills aren't improving.

You don't do irony?

What precisely is ironic about this post? Nothing at all. Beck is just nitpicking about Sear's own rather banal nitpick. They are like two toothless old chihuahuas chasing each other's tails.

PS little thought for you, have you tried to write with an Ipad before?

So that's your explanation for the poorly placed apostrophes, is it? "It was my iPad, your honour, not my poor grasp of punctuation."

LOL, sure it was buster.

Interesting comment....

Shaky ground for someone with the vocab of a high school dropout.

Compelling as it is...ROTFLMAO

Oh I get it.
Because I used the phrase 'your honour', I must work in the legal profession.
Which means I must be a lawyer.
Which means I must be Jeremy Sear.

Wrong on all three counts. In fact the only thing this conclusively proves is your own obsession with Sear.

Quite frankly, for the most part I find Sear's blogging to be tedious and uninspiring. What drives you febrile wingnuts to obsess over Sear, think every second commenter on the Internet is him, and raid his social media so you publish his pictures on your own blogs?

It is just plain weird and you should probably seek some kind of Sear-cleansing therapy.

I don't know who you are ding bat, but your ludicrous comments are interesting in the same way that other epic fails are. You should have a blog for our amusement.

You seem to have made many specific assumptions from one word and zero evidence, as you put it. Do you always think aloud?

As for the social media - looks like it's been put out there for all to see. That's the purpose right?

Not so bright John.

I have formed conclusions and extrapolated information about you, based on what you have written here.

If you had any brains, you'd be able to do the same about me. But you cannot, so you resort to rank insults and imagined claims of illiteracy, incompetence and inferiority. In other words, you're utterly clueless so just make stuff up.

There is nothing illegal about accessing or linking to someone's public images. But when you do so to invite ridicule or personal abuse of the subject, there are some serious doubts about your moral compass.

"formed conclusions and extrapolated information about you"

Really, when did this happen? Was it the freakish revelation about my blue singlet?

Do you actually believe the rubbish you write about yourself and your awesome abilities or is it part of the laughable internet 'legend' you're trying to create? Like a cultural Jason Bourne?

Ha ha this is some kind of lefty humour?

Because all I've seen so far is a git with an ego problem trying to be clever, with zero insight, falling on his face.

PS if someone chooses to put all manner of photos on open social media and some are objectively judged as ridiculous, well that's life really.

Get a thicker skin or don't put it up, if said people don't want attention.

Pretty simple.

Just like you.

I am not Superman, Flatus, just better than you. Not a difficult achievement in and of itself.

I didn't 'put it up' and I don't speak for those who did. I'm more interested in the motives and agenda of someone who runs an apparently political blog, then posts links to these images with no apparent reason, other than to invite derogatory commentary. From the likes of you, chiefly.

Pretty simple. Just like you.

Think that one up yourself? Or did a grown-up give you some help?

You are not Superman? Worked that one out thanks.

"just better than you"

Anyone making that kind of statement is just a moron, Narcissistic Personality Disorder aside of course. Remember that extrapolation thing? Uh huh.

All sort of child like really in a creepy way.

Oh and a fart reference. Nice job.

Just the icing.

You really are a half wit troll.

Thanks for contributing to world idiocy.

Who's the one who originally used the nick 'john's flatus'? I know your attention span is goldfish-like, but try to think back and see if you recall.

No problem. Someday I hope to match your own contributions, which are as yet unparalleled.

And here I was using you as a role model.

After all you are the king of apostrophes.

And the most underdeservedly puffed up dickhead I have yet to 'meet'.

Not so puffed up that I invent new words, that seems to be your domain.

To the other troll, I am not Jeremy Sear, I don't know who "Travis" is, and your homophobic 'meat' line is pathetic. You must be one of the internet's bottom-feeders.

I see some amusing potential in you if it was.

who is Travis, I'm intrigued. What forum?
