Get Out Of It You Old Duffer

Supreme Commander Jim Moseley has had his day. It is time for him to step down and hand his crown over to me. He was never that funny in the first place and I say to those who bristle at that remark, show me something funny that he has said or written. Go on, show me. The only reason people speak with infection about him is because he’s been here for ages. Well now its time to piss off and stand aside and let someone who really knows how to make himself laugh take the wheel. What you see on this page is the new way, the way of the naughties. This is modern humor, here. See, feel it. It’s lascivious isn’t it?

UFOs aren’t in themselves particularly funny but the people who are interested in them are. That nice Jason Gammon for example……D’jaknow? I can’t even say the name without falling off my chair, I mean, the guy is just so screamingly hilarious. And twozzle features, halitosis face, whatis name, you know who I mean…….. John Scheldroup, that’s it! He’s a goat. I mean he just smells like the drivel he talks.

Now, isn’t the above paragraph funny? Be honest, when did you last laugh like that. Now that is humor.

    There must be something wrong with me, Artful Dodger. For some reason I didn't find the above humorous at all. Didn't laugh. Sorry.

    I did wonder, though, what makes a person so driven to make such boring comments. Is this like that guy who set up "australianufowave.com"? You know, where some fake ufo video clips were posted in order to draw people in to test their gullibility quotient? To see if they'd rise to the bait, so that they could be studied, categorized, and then exposed?

    That must be it--Art's blog is a form of performance art. He really doesn't mean the things he says, he just wants to see how and who responds to his trolling hook.

    Arthur claimed to be a third year psychology student, or some such nonsense, so perhaps he's studying how people respond to provocation with a twist of sadism. Maybe it's the basis of an obscure, soon to be shelved thesis or analytical paper for his professor.

    I don't know, but I wish it were actually funny. As it is, it's only sad and to be the object of pity. So, folks, be gentle with him. He knows not what he does. And if, on the other hand, he is aware of what he's doing, it's best to just ignore him.

    Mickey you're a bitch. You say the nastiest things, you really do, and you're very hurtful. Remember, if you can't say something nice about somebody, you shouldn't say anything at all.

    Look, lets try and start again. The blood from the battleground of our previous spats lies beneath us, seeping into the soil, forever a blemish on the stain of our new found friendship. Lets be pals!! I know, why don't you pop round for a coffee? Then we could sit and gossip about old times and I could should you my elongated digeridoo. If you blow on it it makes a funny noise. Funnily enough, so do I. And you know that sick puppy you're always breaking wind about? We could play with it and make it better again.

    If you get no answer on the door, there's a key in the pansies. Just help yourself. Oh behave!!

    Lame. Not up to your usual standards, Artie. And why no response to my comment about your "Anonymous" posting? Sick puppy got your tongue? Or maybe your elongated digeridoo? How bestial!

    Yes, I'd like to come visit you, if only to bring the proper meds to sooth your soiled soul. Perhaps we could have tea together. Only you are in England, and it's not worth the bother to fly 8,000 miles to visit merely to counsel and console you. That's why we have the internet!

    "You say the nastiest things, you really do, and you're very hurtful. Remember, if you can't say something nice about somebody, you shouldn't say anything at all."

    Gee, I'm just trying to earn your trust, to emulate you. I thought this was _your_ modus operandi. Am I wrong? Or are you just some self-loathing twit? We all want to know.

    Mosley is said to be light in the loafers, as the quaint old saying goes. Not that it has anything to do with the fact that he's un- funny.

    He attempts to stride ,with his brand of humor, between Ufoology and Skepticism. Yet he only ends up striding something or someone else entirely[if he should even be that lucky].
