Every time some cunt reverts my edits I look at that picture of Jimmy Wales begging for money and I say to myself "FUCK YOU Jimmy Wales. I ain't giving you jack shit."
Here's another "fact" for your list:
11) Wikipedia is the only place where a completely ignorant jackass with no talent in any area can still be successful.
Or words to that effect. These people remind me of cops, or government employees, dutifully going through the motions, grinding out each day, day after day with no passion, no glimmer of intelligence just a blind obedience to whatever programming they have been given. They don't notice when implementation of wikipedia policy veers off into Retardville, and do not care when you let them know it.
For example, sourced material. Wiki policy is that only reliably sourced material can be used. The fact that the "reliably sourced material" is fucking WRONG makes no difference. They don't give a fuck if it's wrong. If CNN said it, then that's what's in the wiki article. I like reading wiki; it's a good reference. And I like reading the discussion pages, and sometimes throw in my own two-cents, but as far as putting any significant effort into doing any substantive work on wikipedia? FUCK NO. Some 14 yo wiseass with nothing to do all day but revert other people's edits for the stupidest, most inane reasons imaginable will actually sit there, all day long, and revert edits for the stupidest, most inane reasons imaginable.
Read the Discussion Pages on any controversial subject, and see how retarded some of the arguments are, and how frequently the retards win. Usually it's because "if we do it that way, "x" group will be offended..." but only if "x" group is one of the traditional liberal/left wing/socialist defined "minorities". They don't give a fuck about men, whites, western religions or anyone associated with them with being offended. Look at what they did to the traditional "BC/AD" format of time (years). Now it's "BCE" and "<something else, I forget>" because apparantly some non-judeo christian cultures have a problem with using (Jesus) Christ as the reference point for all time. But that doesn't stop them from actually USING the numbering system, No, they just want the word "Christ" removed from it. How fucking stupid. What's year "0"? Well originally it marked the entrance of what one religion thought of as the "Messiah", but we don't call it that as it offends other cultures & religions. Oh, we still use the date as a starting point, but we just took that word "Christ" out. How fucking stupid. I figure, when a culture invents the concept of "time" and records "time" with accuracy, and can count backwards hundreds and thousands of years and other cultures are still trying to figure-out how to buttfuck a rhesus monkey and not get AIDS, well I figure that culture WINS and they can call their invention anything they fucking want.
But no, all these also-rans and never-trieds come in LONG after the fact and piss and moan on wikipedia and suddenly it's called the "Common Era".
What the fuck does the birth of the so-called jewish Messiah have in "Common" with anything.
"Hey, guess what?"
"What?"
"This dude Jesus was born, and we're calling it year 0."
Really? Wow, now we have something in common with everyone.
But, we're not going to use the word "Christ"; we're just going to call it "Common"
"Makes sense to me."
- Two Retarded Wikipedia Retards, redefining how time is measured
I don't really give a monkey-fucking rat's ass if "christ" is there or not, but if you are going to object to the notion that the maybe-he-way-and-maybe-he-wasn't jewish messiah as the starting point of the entire timeline, then OBJECT to it, don't just do some half-ass, namby-pamby, touchie-feelie bullshit measure, FUCK. Make some celestial event year 0, or some historical event. Maybe the detonation of the 1st atomic bomb could be "BN" (Before Nuclear) or whatever. I don't care. I DO care that these stupid motherfuckers have the ability to influence other people that show up to wikipedia thinking that they are learning something when instead they are being indoctrinated into thinking just like the two retards that defined things like "BCE" and "CE".
