which for me means more respect for mpowers67 than mdkiller, his posts are simply a joke.
I LOVE a good joke and get some amusement out of him....some. But so many nonsense threads simply pushed back the more serious, or at least hobby-related, threads back faster than they should.
Send him to the humor board as his posts are a joke. I LIKE a joke, and usually look for us to get along. So I don't suggest banishing him lightly - just redirect his threads as they are clearly jokes to get attention.
It's OK he has fans. He serves his purpose I guess. But it really is pushing topics back prematurely.
His posting of the formula in his thread on weight, along with a couple of his postings, give him away as being at least fairly bright and having been reasonably educated.
Knowledge that this symbol (^) indicates an exponent in certain computer languages or to use (*) as a multiplication symbol indicates the possession of knowledge generally unavailable to the developmentally disabled.
I think he is either just being funny, or maybe suffers from a disorder pertaining strictly to reading/writing -- of which there are several.
Evidence points to the former as he forgets himself sometimes and posts completely coherent and spelling-corrected messages.
a disjointed prose style as a method to throw off the pack as to his real identity. he could be a regular poster with a recognizable prose style having his fun with the board. somehow he has managed to adopt an account complete with old reviews to use as a screen.
At first, I thought it was fascinating to read his infrequent posts in an attempt to analyze them. As johngalt pointed out, in a few instances he has slipped up and revealed a bit of underlying intelligence. These glimpses have pretty much convinced me that he is simply screwing around.
With that said, I have VERY quickly reached a fatigue point reading his drivel. It actually hurts my brain while I try to disentangle the implied meaning from the jumbled letters strewn across the sentences. I feel like my IQ drops 5 points every time I click on one of his posts.
Bizzarodude managed to write a couple of short but amazingly similar replies in 'mdkiller-speak'. I'd lay odds that he felt the need to go have a stiff drink after agonizing over how to sound so incoherent while barely managing to hint at a meaning.
As with many things, sadly, familiarity has bred contempt in me. Not sure I can stomach many more of his Zen koans.
I have a getaway in the U.P. and I have been "learning" the talk for 6 years now...
They have the oddest way of saying things and are the friendliest of folks. Even if he is not from Upper Michigan- quite a number of Lower Michigan guys talk like that. Every single person I have met from Michigan are jokesters.
The snowmobiling and 4-wheeling are to die for in the U.P. ... and they keep their area NATURAL up there (or up dahare) (ya know, eh?)
I wonder if he has a "junk yard" on his property... likes beer and playing bingo...
Instant Yooper, just add beer lol
I went to a Casino where I won the jackpot "dahare" and it was a whopping $125 lol
