Curmudgeon - 1. Racist - 0

[The Curmudgeon]

It's been a while since my last real internet spat. I can't find the time for lengthy Amazon reviews that turn into hissy fits from fans, and trolling can be such a drag sometimes.

So whenever I do get the chance to try and destroy someone online, I go for it. Especially when it's as triumphant as this one. (Note for anyone in the US - "DWP" is Department of Work and Pensions. Basically, the unemployment office. Oh, and I'd had an altercation with this goof a few months back when the Ultimate Warrior died, after he called him "just another junkie, good riddance").

This took place on Facebook, and it was the Fortress' own Quillford that started this innocent remark that led to this. (Real names changed, obviously, except for my victim). Here we go..



QUILLFORD: Having the tastiest lunch. Cheer me up after my DWP meeting D:

BILLY: Let me see they said. .. I'm sorry Mr Quillford your not getting any money because between backhanders to our friends and fellow tories and giving as much money as we can to eastern European immigrants we have no cash or houses for the people who were born in this country so even if we wanted to help you which we don't anyway we can't so please fuck off my coffee is getting cold.

QUILLFORD: Not quite. I was snapped at when I asked questions about the forms I was filling it - so I could, you know fill it our corrrectly. She was particularly grouchy because I asked to backdate it for July. Just spoke to me like dirt really. I was very plesant to her and I felt like there was no need.

CURMUDGEON: Billy - so do you turn every thread into a needlessly racist, baseless rant?

BILLY: Mmmmmm Curmudgeon...eastern Europe they are white so where's the racism. .. I don't min immigration just look after your own citizens before you look after others.

CURMUDGEON: Racist or ignorant bigot? Same thing to me, I'm afraid. Anyway, I think there's a new article on the Daily Mail website for you to go comment on. Or Britain First is looking for more imbeciles to join their ranks. You'd be perfect there.

BILLY: Britain first yeah right... Yes Scotland here m8 better apart not better together, and this bigots not against these fellow human beings coming into the country like many of his friends from Poland, Lithuania, Nigeria, Algeria & England just just want them to earn their money like his friends do and stop asking for handouts. .. I'd also stop the lazy ass bastards from this country who DON'T want to work getting cash rather than take it from the sick and elderly that CAN'T work... just cause my opinions differ from yours doesn't make me a bigot... if you don't wish to see my comments BLOCK me or pressure Quillford into deleting me... Sorry Quillford obviously don't blame you if you did delete me.

CURMUDGEON: So Quillford makes one comment about being at the Job Centre and you go off on a tangent about illegal immigrants for no reason whatsoever. Yeah, the behaviour of someone that's totally sound of mind and hasn't got a hate filled chip on his shoulders. You must be a riot at parties.

BILLY: 1 I never said I was sound of mind..2 I never said I don't have a chip on my shoulder and 3 I never used the word ILLEGAL as Europeans have freedom to roam anywhere in Europe but if you actually read the comment its a dig at the government and local councils as well as the torie party itself or are you just to dumb to notice that and felt like having a dig because I called your hero a junky a few months back. ... I don't know if people consider me a riot at parties best ask people who know me.

CURMUDGEON: Slow down there champ you're making my eyes bleed with your shocking grammar.

So hey, at least we both agree that you DO have a chip on your shoulder and that you're clearly a moron.

If you know Quillford, like at ALL, you'll know that he finds comments like yours repugnant, and that's why he politely ignored everything you said. Why not keep your ignorant, half baked views to your own page and your equally illiterate friends instead of trying to push your views onto other peoples posts?

You called my friend a junkie? Oh I remember you. Still a complete dick trying to get noticed on the internet, I see?

BILLY: Yep grammar is shit I'm also uneducated and work in a dead end job as a security Guard so yeah moron.... again your hero not your friend and I'm always a complete dick its my best quality. .. as for get noticed not me I don't really give a shit what people say or think about me...... not all my friends are illiterate though some are but not all..... judging books by their covers again. ....not good not good at all......

CURMUDGEON: Jesus Billy, you've went from being unintentionally hilarious to downright depressing. I'm sorry you feel the need to blame others (dem imigants, eh?) For your sorry state of affairs but cheer up. At least you've got your personality, right? Aw shit.

Are you seriously still trying to goad me into reacting about the Ultimate Warrior? As I said at the time I thought he sucked. Just awful. It was your ignorant, knee-jerk reactionary comments that I took exception to, as I did here.

And hey, in the short space of time it's taken to have this conversation you've admitted you have a chip on your shoulder and you're a moron. So really why would anyone take anything you have to say even remotely seriously?

Carry on shouting into the wind, genius. I think we're done here.


And then nothing. A few hours later Quillford let me know that Billy not only removed him from his Friends list, he removed EVERYONE from his Facebook friends list except his parents and cancelled all plans to meet up with people for a music festival next year.

Holy shit. I think I broke him.

Wait, you think the Ultimate Warrior....sucked? I don't think that's allowed. Jews and Mexicans are the ones who suck at wrestling. They need to leave it to the people who were exposed to steroids from birth [note satire font].

So, if this dude doesn't care about what anybody thinks about what he thinks, why post it on the internet? That is the whole idea of the internet, right? You post things there so that other people can read and perhaps respond to them? Also, can somebody explain the concept that a human being's value is determined based on the geographic region of their birth to me? Is there a scientific method or even an unofficial ranking that determines if you are worthy of living in certain countries or not based on the location where you were born? Or is it like a feudal era throwback where the peasants must serve the lord of the kingdom in the fife of their birth forever?

[The Curmudgeon]

I was never a fan of the Warrior. He had, like, three moves and that was it. Plus he was an enormous asshole in real life so that doesn't help. I get why people liked him, but I never did. But hijacking someone's thread saying they were sorry he was dead with "worthless junkie" comments makes you a prize dick.

[trashcanman]

Moves? He only needed one move to make him a legend.





He would have made an awesome villain with his "queering doesn't make the world go around" shtick.
