Still absolutely obsessed with me I see. Get help, loser.

“And if Anonalogue ever does respond to the challenge he issued, pretend to be me and beat the shit out of him, would you?”

Retard. Do you prissy little effeminate statists think anyone worth anything would believe that I’m afraid of a guy who is as effeminate as you? As if. If you’re going to tell a lie at least make it plausible, pussy. I shouldn’t even be responding to this obvious leechy attention grab but I just wanted to set the record straight: I work a 5 minute cab ride from where you do; I asked you, once, to meet me face to face because you were following me around from site to site being a prissy little bitch and you, unsurprisingly, declined, end of story.

Good thing I know your name, address, and where you work; I may need to use that information soon because you’re clearly becoming violent.

“beat the shit out of him”

Third vague physical threat made against me this week, guess you’re still pissed - loser - that I busted your illegal vote-defacement scheme. Gee, I’m scared. I’m inspired to know I’ve made you so very angry, this encourages me increase my blog output and commentary ;-)

” weapons collection”

Lol, that was very, very stupid. Evidence of mental instability plus incitement to commit a crime (ballot spoiling) plus vague physical threats plus an extremely lengthy record of self-admitted online harrassment plus admission of a “weapons collection” equals pound-me-in-the-ass at the Holiday Innes! You’re not a very bright chap, are you?

Have fun, Balbulican. I’m off myself for a week in the Laurentians. I can’t be more specific because you know who might be tempted to violate the restraining order.

‘ta.

Unless you can be done in by empty rhetoric and show boating I doubt you have anything to fear from the likes of Ezra Levant. As to your other request, if I recall correctly, Anonalogue offered you pick of the the Dojo, if you would be so kind as to email me a list of your favorites I would be in your debt. Would you mind terribly if I slipped my favorite Dojang into the mix? As you are aware I have studied finger painting (Goju-Ryu and Shotokan) but it’s been a while and TKD is, IMO, a much more civilized art.

I assume the standard rules will be in effect, no hogos, no foot, shin, hand, or arm padding, no head gear, normally we would not have to specify no biting but given the potential opponent….

Now, here’s an interesting thing.

Anonalogue has published my name and photograph on his site, with a typical stream of insults. (It is, admittedly, a bad photograph).

He also published two links that pointed to Ian’s site, which purported to show me denying the Holocaust, or something. The only thing is:
- I wasn’t in either thread;
- I don’t deny the holocaust, or any aspect of it, and never have.

I responded to his outing, noting that:
- my identify has never really been much of a secret, given that I correspond with half of you under my real name, and have advertised both my Dive DVDs and my book on this site;
- he had just made himself fair game for outing.

He responded by suggesting that I would be trouble if I did to him what he had just done to me.

I responded to him that it was all in the spirit of good fun, but that a number of people were very curious about who he was.

Then the kicker. When I checked back to see if he had responded, I noted that he had rewritten my response, which now read: “As for outing me…you’ll be sorry. Believe me, son, you’re going to regret this.”

I guess I’m naive about blogging, but I’ve never seen anything as shitty as that. Never. But since he is editing my responses, I won’t post there again, and anything you see on his site allegedly from me will not be. I have a screenshot of my original response, which as far as I can tell he has not edited.

Any suggestions about appropriate responses to that kind of insanity? I’m quite honestly perplexed.

I say keep poking, this is a fascinating case study in mentally unstable bloggers. I’d also suggest a counter-outing, not for any petty sense of retribution or anything like that, but I think that guy’s reaction would be priceless. I think I may have already found a picture:

He edited your response? That’s low. Ti-Guy said he did that. As long as you have proof, I would post the screen-shot here witha before and after picture so we can all laugh at him.

I too am naive about these kind of things. I assume that most people have at least some semblance of reality, but Anon seems too far gone. You could out him, but I would fear for my life. Or we could all just ignore him and he might fade into oblivion.

I think an outing would serve to get Anonalogue the help he needs. I’m serious. He’s ill. The only outrage I’ve been feeling is the vulgarity of both The Shotgun and the CBC of having paraded this profoundly unwell person.

Hey, we have the exact same father. My dad’s the spitting image of Gandalf.

“I think an outing would serve to get Anonalogue the help he needs.”

I think I agree. Certainly no more exposure than he gave to me, and certainly without the insults. Just name, and, if possible, photo. Just for fun, and because so many of us are curious…benevolently, of course.

Let’s discuss this in another medium, shall we?

Balb - if you’re coming this far west and need to hide from Ezra, I have a bike room…*g*.
Now back up the comments to read the exciting! drama!

Anonalogue rewriting another persons comments is just about as low as ya can go in the blogosphere, I suppose I should add something like, “I’m surprised even it would sink to such depths” - but I’m not.

The primary reason I don’t bother with its’ site is that there’s nothing there of interest; rarely have I seen a place as devoid of ideas exist…. this is just one more reason not to bother with it.

The thought does strike me though that it does have a static IP address, it might be interesting to see if the blogosphere was interested in a little self-policing, ya know…. like if a whole bunch of bloggers happened to ban a certain IP for a month or so, a little Internet time-out as it were, and see if it had any effect.

Fer christ’s sake, how can people like anon get so worked up over blogging. Say whatcha want to say, and if people don’t agree, so be it. One of the reasons I come here is that we can generally disagree, but the discourse stays civil. I enjoy discussion, not diatribe.

Anwen, your expose of “pussies” and “bitches” cracked me up. It’s an excellent point, too.

>>”Anonalogue rewriting another persons comments is just about as low as ya can go in the blogosphere, I suppose I should add something like, “I’m surprised even it would sink to such depths” - but I’m not.”

You’re letting him off too easy, SL. In fact, he has sunk much lower than that, hasn’t he?

On occasion, I’ve seen one blogger threaten another with bodily harm, but they’ve been rare occasions indeed.

Likewise, I can recall the odd ” outing, ” or threat to out a blogger, with the expressed intent being to cause the outed blogger difficulties and financial loss in their personal lives.

Both tactics are purely malicious and despicable, but Anonalogue is the first blogger I’ve seen engage in both.

I second your call for a collective ban of his IP, SL. To any of my fellow conservative bloggers who might be popping in for a lurk, please don’t soil yourself by any further contact with this cretin.

“Treehugger, you can have the books and my bust of Elvis”

I appreciate the gesture Balb, but I know you will be back in one piece. Ezra may even “torture” you but fear not; it won’t be “Real Torture(TM)”.

Anyway, I am off the blogosthingy for a few days and Anonalogue sullies himself to a new pathetic low. What goes around comes around ole buddy.

“The only outrage I’ve been feeling is the vulgarity of both The Shotgun and the CBC of having paraded this profoundly unwell person.”

?

Anonalogue was on the CBC? Seriously?

Well, Anon is now posting pictures of everyone he can and claims that “outing him” is code for “hacking his computer(s).” I’m not sure how that leap in logic works, but by his standards he has now hacked 4 or 5 computers in order to “out” the bloggers he posted pictures of.

Here is his actual quote:

“When you see these assholes talk about “outing” me, they really mean “intimidate me by threatening to illegally hack my computer”.”

I find this all fascinating. The blogosphere. What a waste of space sometimes.

I took a look at anon’s blog, and it didn’t take more than a casual read to realize that the guy is just nuts. He froths at the mouth. It’s hard to take any of his babbling seriously. I think he tries to stir this stuff up to make it sound as if he or his opinions matter to anyone.

That should have read, “I personally am NOT too concerned about him”
