Your jokes read too much like insults. You insult people left and right with no indication of sarcasm. And your perceived angry disposition reinforces that fact.

You don't know anything about my company sir. Again, if your real personality is anything like the one you portray here, you'd never get a foot in the door. TI prides itself on its high ethical standards.

Really? You work for a security firm correct? We contract with Allied Barton; I see many of their employees during the day, Why is that, and does it work that way with your company as well?

Don't know what brought this on, but now things become very clear, so let me make it clear to you:

This is again, just another way that you show your ignorance. I'm glad you don't know how many products TI has chips in, as long as you spout comments like this one off, you prove your ignorance to everyone reading your responses. From what you've just taught me with this attempt to psychoanalyze me, you ARE the lowest common denominator of society. By the way, Rockwell is no longer part of Texas Instruments so I don't know where you get this government contractor bit. We do still own Burr Brown though.

Do you think that by turning on caps that this helps you convince people that you really know what you're talking about? Insult my company as much as you wish sir, you mean nothing to us.

Stuck in another decade? Wrong thread. I haven't been to a Hooters resturant recently, but I think they still exist here in the 21st century, and they still hire young black, white, hispanic, indian, asain, oriental females. I talk about firebirds because I own one. And I think I talk about it in the correct context. (Just guessing that's what you're talking about).

You don't know me sir, you know only a stage presence. Although I will admit that in this community as well as the real world, I try to have a positive influence on the lives of all I touch. My sense of humor is how I accomplish that goal. You on the other hand do nothing more than belittle anyone who looks cross eyed at you, just like a spoiled little two year old. Remember what I said earlier, I owe you nothing, so if you don't like what I write (and don't try to rise above your well entrenched reputation here by telling me you like me.. you like no one), stay away from me. Get your own house in order before you try to analyze someone elses.

401K kid? WTF are you talking about? Does your security company even offer one? Last I checked, 401K plans ARE the tool for retirement income. Where do you get the idea that my 401K plan is going to tank? See? This is just another example of how ignorant you are. Prove to me that my plan is going to be crud (yes, that's crud with a C) when I retire. Are you telling me that you know how I invest in my 401K plan? Are you telling me that you know how my plan is even set up?

I throw away chicken fat, I don't eat grisstle, and corn cobs really turn me off. If I start eating them will I become a deeper individual? Is that what you're getting at?

You might want to be careful with statements like that....
Not all Black/Other Minorities feel that White people owe them anything....
And since you really don't know what race Pixel is.... jumping to the conclusion that he's a black guy who feels you owe him something, is bordering on offensive....
Though I do agree with your point somewhat.... personally, I don't believe in this generational hatred... Children should bot be punished for the crimes of their parents (even if those parents never went to jail for their crimes)....

Thank you for your input. This is between myself and pixelthis. I made it clear in the other thread that I'd respond to him here in a more appropriate forum. I didn't ask you or anyone else to follow. If you find my words offensive, please remove yourself from this thread.

Reading this post is somewhat distasteful.
Sort of like the Pixel/PS "debate" over who did/didn't do something.
Rich, you are cool, and I enjoy your posts. Pixel, not so much.
Be careful you don't dirty yourself too much Rich, sometimes its best to leave ignorant fools to themselves.
Now, GM did you bring any popcorn, or are you gonna hog it like you do the ladies?

My input was just meant to be helpful advice (my apologies if it seemed to be some kind of an attack on you)... and since I have no issue with you... I'll leave you and Pixel to duke it out....
Good Luck...

At least it worked for the ladies.
The popcorn just had a slight aftertaste.

Tell you what. You stick to the balls-whatever you make them from. I'm going to concentrate on the coconuts, and cantaloupes.

The larger ones are from bulls that lost in the fight the night before.
The smaller ones? Well, the bulls don't always loose.

I like JSE's Big John McCarthy impersonation. C'mon boys, somebody throw down, dammit...I paid good money to...nevermind.

Pix only posts in the wee hours of the morn' so this flame war is likely to have the intensity of Kasparov vs. Topalov...

LOL.
Who's Melvin?

FA, this is not a place for a lady.
GB, is making sense Rich. Pix is an inbred mental midget. No matter how much proof you show him he is wrong he does not change his mind and he can't show one shred of evidence to back his warped opinion and statements. I don't know what happened to PS but he was right when he tagged Pix a troll.

now that's a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.
I think PS was shown the door when it turned out he was a reincarnation of a known plagerist and a serial troll who has posted here under several monikers over the past few years. ...but several members are familiar with his modus operandi (sp?) and syntax.
Then it's only a matter of time before he's shown the door ...again. he's easily identified.

Melvin Walker is a "newbie" who comes to us after being cryogenically frozen since 1962. Even though he's only participated in only three threads, he's made quite an impression on all of us.
Here they are. Get some coffee before starting in here.
this is his first apperance where he makes a totally inane and rambling "proclimation" as to how far OP's speakers should be placed. It gets really good when people ask him how he arrived at this figure: http://forums.audioreview.com/general-audio/please-help-25434.html
He does like to talk about cars, shoes, watches and suits. bur complains when anyone else deviated from the subject of audio.
He throws in some intersting stuff, but it's all boiler-plate to avoid answering any questions as you will soon see. Also, it's all available on the internet if you know the right sources. some of us do.
In this, his second post, he really lets on that he's got no use for anything that happened since 1960 or so: http://forums.audioreview.com/general-audio/what-like-25460.html
In his third and, hopefully, final post, his true feelings come into the open. He lost hope in audio once it became available to the great unwashed. I think this is where he compares James Taylor to Nazis: http://forums.audioreview.com/general-audio/has-changes-popular-music-has-effect-how-we-buy-audio-equipment-today-25660.html
By now, he's managed to insult almost everyone on the site in one way or another.
Is he gone? Who knows?

Now if you really want to see pizza being thrown back and forth, the news section is the bomb!!!

It's like grade school again, mention fight and EVERYONE comes. :)
"cryogenically frozen" LOL! accurate though.

I personally think that pixel and nightliar are brothers. But that's just me.

Man, where's the action??? The closest we've come to fight in here was one of my comments... :( which is really kinda sad...
Now if you guys want a real fight... check out this thread over some Maggies/Amps...

I knew sparks would fly the moment I saw that guy tell Flo that Krell is a mid-fi amp company.

Really? P-Skies was a troll? I know that he had some strange opinions sometimes and he could be mildly offensive, but I didn't think that he was that bad.

I don't think he was that bad either.... from what I remember, he was mainly just in love with PSB speakers and products that are great value for money.... Yeah he was a tad aggressive in his defense of his views but I could respect his opinions (I think)...

Was he a Troll because he used several monikers or because he made offensive posts? Is switching monikers wrong? I've done it 3 (sort of 4) times in the 8 years I've been on and off this site....

Evidently, he did it three or four times in eight minutes, having conversations with himself and provoking others.

PSkies was never banned.....but he was suspended for a couple of days. We all knew what he was doing with his multiple screen names, but once it was confirmed.....he left on his own.

How do some of you know about the events with PS and not others of us? I found this quite enlightening as I fell into the camp that thought he crossed the line some but not nearly as irritating as Pix. I don't mind Pix or anyone having opposing views but when you are plain wrong, and it's been proven beyond a doubt you are wrong yet you stick to your incorrect view, then you have a serious issue. That attitude voids the purpose of being here. I've been wrong on things before and admit I usually require proof before I will change my mind, after all I'm in the "Show Me" state, but when shown I'm wrong I change my view. I remember a couple years ago being in a debate on rear surround speakers, I followed what I saw in high end stores and had been told, that the rears should point at the listening position. This I believe is becoming more accepted. At the time though Dolby's website sure enough showed diagrams backing the other guys position that the rears should fire at one another, even in a DD set up, so I had no choice but to fall in line. It was humbling because the person was a lot younger than me. I played around with my owned speakers and I actually left them firing at each other because it did seem to be the best sound effect. I recently switched them back to pointing at my listening seat for a while. Any way, let's not digress.

First I'll admit that I haven't had any negative interaction with Pixel (that I can remember anyway).... but I'm not sure whether being irritating and obstinate is really that big of a deal... I don't think there is anyone more irritating and obstinate on this site than SpankingVanillaIce but most people just laugh off his comments and move on....
Now if the arguement is that Pixel is rude (which Spanky definitely is not) then I would argue that there are many rude posters on this site as well.... I haven't peeked into the cables forum in 8 years because of the type of flame wars that used to inhabit those threads... then the format wars (SACD v DVD-A were pretty heated) and now this Blu Ray HD-DVD stuff is pretty heated and seems to be where most of the fights with Pixel are coming from...

Ajani, I have issues with pixelthis. Maybe you and others haven't been paying attention, but I'm sick a tired of being dogged by him, and I'm sick and tired of the constant insults he hurls at my employer. I didn't start this thread because I wanted anyone's opinion of him. Again, to everyone here who's filling this thread up with discussion, please start a new one.
