There's lame excuse #34,736. Is that supposed to somehow relate to the post you quoted?

Throwing a bunch of random, long words into a rambling post in an attempt to sound smart is neither inspiring nor imaginative.

Well, it seems someone tried to ignore, but has been interrupted by his own compulsion.

I don't think your habit of constantly posting everywhere even if you have nothing relevant, intelligent or even intelligible to say is a literal compulsion. It might be though. I'm not a psychiatrist.

Old hat you are also compulsive to get your point across, which has obviously not been successful, consider yourself beating a dead horse.

Like everyone else who's left this conversation I'm just getting tired of it myself.

Oh but it has been successful. You just don't understand what my point actually it. You make it every time you post.

You never had anything to say in the first place.

I do. In fact, I make a fun game of it in threads like this. Based on other people's responses, I come up with my own ideas of what kind of random, non-sequitir ******** Yuki is spouting that elicits such a reaction.

I wonder if he was looking for those prison groupies?

I can't find it now, I think I saw it on the BBC site, he was playing music loud and a woman went to investigate. She said that the door was unlocked, but she didn't go in. So he was trying to kill whoever went to complain, or any cops sent to tell him to keep it down. Plus half the building.

I won't put anyone on Ignore out of principle. If I have to put anyone on Ignore, I should stay off the internet. I apply that rule to other people; I must therefore apply it to myself.

None of those things keep him from pleading "not guilty, by reason of insanity" in Colorado. He can plead anything he wants. In Colorado, it's up to the prosecution to prove (beyond reasonable doubt) that the defendant wasn't insane.

I heard that as well. By the time the police were able to respond, they were otherwise occupied by the shooter's antics.

Indeed. Hell, I'd be surprised if he doesn't go the insanity route, despite all he's done.

I've only put one user here on ignore and tune out the others.

Like I said, I don't know what it would take to find him insane and listed those I thought would prevent that. I admit some of that sentence doesn't make sense though.

Yuki being absurd. Old hat throwing an angst fit and feeling superior ON THE INTERNET. Yup, SSDD in here.

My first thought about the news story when I was told about it was, "Wow, this guy either really loved the movie or really hated it."

I imagined it as something along the lines of either

"THIS MOVIE IS ****ING AWFUL *gunfire*"

or

"THIS MOVIE IS ****ING AWESOME *gunfire*"

I have personally reacted in both of these manners to various movies. And then I went to Paprika and did them both at once.
