Cars have become quasi instinctive in people and cannot be reversed by petrol price hikes. They will forego most things before giving up driving.

“Quasi instinctive”? Twat.

    Reminds me of a steaming turd of a human I once worked with who loved to shout me out for not knowing how to write code when code was never in my job description. He would blather on about how code was so easy and how could I be so dense and if I wasn’t so dumb and bad at my job I could at least write out the solution in “suede-o” code. I gently pointed out that even with my tiny mortal brain I know the true programming greats pronounce it “pseudo.”

    My quasi-invertible car certainly cannot be reversed by petrol price hikes. Luckily it can be reversed by putting it in the right gear, though.

    At least I won’t give up reading IYLISMWDYGLT before I give up driving. You quasi-foxlike front-bum.

    I’d be scared of a ‘quasi instinctive’ car, it might take a notion to go get fuel all by itself, and not bother coming back, the big metal fucker.

    is it better to aspire to be clever like cosmologic or embrace your stupidity and accept that a simple task like thinking of a word beginning with ‘P’ is beyond you like Sree here from the MP expenses debate?

    Simon (if that is your real name)

    Are you saying that Master sPonger should be abbreviated as MS? So you’re implying, therefore, that all MS sufferers are spongers? How ignorant.

    Sree’s comment is so good I have gone blind and shat myself.

    Next time I get the Q in Scrabble I’ll make sure to put down ‘quasi’ and then sit back looking all smug at myself. Cosmologic sounds like an IT Solutions Company or something.

    Miserable Pcunts.

    No, no, no. You’ve got it all wrong. Cosmologic is the name of a cunt solution company.

    How it works is, you ring them up and they send a complete cunt round to do whatever you need.

    Someone, probably Topsy-Turvy, obviously paid this bloke to act like a cunt on Have Your Say. And you chaps shouldn’t be too mean, they’re only doing their job. Probably a really nice person, outside work.

    i’m starting to feel uneducated reading posts like the above. does quasi mean he has the hump? (i am so very sorry.)

  13. on 28 May 2008 at 2:52 am wowbagger

    I was going to say that I thought Cosmologic probably meant ’semi’ rather than ‘quasi’ but then realized that cars can’t be ‘instictive in people’ anyway so there was no point trying to make sense of his blethering.

    Instead, I shall merely note that Cosmologic probably likes weasels, underage weasels. You know, sexually.

    Cosmologic is probably one of Topsy’s 50 alter ego’s imaginary nodding acquaintances the quasi fuck stick.

    Speaking of colossal branaiacal intellectuals, from a story on Jean-Paul Sartre’s and Simone de Beauvoir’s relationship:

    Been at high school learning for more than 4 years poesis and texts in French, I liked to read this Lady (in The maternity was not my lot) it is fantastic reading Simone, and Sartre is someone with a sharp linguistic style. Poesis in French really are emotional, inspiring and they are something out of normal norms.

    I saw that Elie thing and was in a bit of a state of shock.

    This is the same Elie Ngandu who hates women, cannot string a sentence together and comes across as a rabid kneejerk evangelical christian.

    But he reads french poetry and philosophy and is a fan of celebrated feminists like Simone de Beauvoir and atheists like Jean Paul Sartre.

    Hidden depths? Or remembering his A Level French Literature?

  17. on 28 May 2008 at 10:34 am Robin

    Mr Cat, I feel something similar when right-wing fucks invoke the name of ultra-socialist George Orwell. I wonder how many of them have read a word of the writers whose names they drop.

  18. on 28 May 2008 at 11:03 am Ben

    I like the way he’s trying to be quasi-intellectual, by using the word poiesis, but spelling it wrong.

  19. on 28 May 2008 at 11:14 am Mr Cat

    Perhaps he is being super pretentious… isn’t poesis Latin or French for poetry?

    Elie is a gifted mathematician too by the looks of it.

    The headline:

    A Japanese civil servant was demoted for viewing pornographic Web sites more than 780,000 times during office hours over a nine-month period

    Elie’s response:

    People don’t forget that in some country employees work longer hours than what we usually do. I know someone in Boston (US) who works 80 hours a week and I also heard a story of how we (developed countries) employe slaves in under developed countries, those people work more than 12hours a day and every single day: +12hours/7days.
    Now if we take someone working over 12hours a day in 31 days (Jully)this will be:
    +12 x 31 = +372
    170000/+372 = 456 an hour SO 7 sites per Minutes, which is fair enough for a handy person.

    This child slavery lark suddenly sounds quite appealing, if they get to look at porn every 8 seconds.

    Odd how many of the comments here resemble the foamings of HYS with a thin veneer of intellectual pretension. What’s worse: 1 person ranting on HYS, or a dozen weasels snarking at the above HYS post whilst cowering in a ‘comments’ thread of a blog?

  22. on 28 May 2008 at 12:21 pm visible stoat

    Fortunately the weasels are weasilly wecognised.

    Try not to worry about it too much.

  24. on 28 May 2008 at 12:41 pm James

    Dear God, he’s right! It’s so clear to me now that if we just engaged these frothing lunatics on HYS instead of laughing at them on here, we could open up a debate that would change the whole world! Or be dull as fuck and achieve nothing. One of the two.

  25. on 28 May 2008 at 12:48 pm Em

    I feel better now :-)

    Well I’m guessing his reading skills are on a par with his writing, so he probably sat down with ‘The Second Sex’, gave it a read and though “YES! This is EXACTLY how the world should be! So nice to read a woman who knows here place!”.

    Now, I know my car may have a mind of it’s own sometimes, but I don’t think it is instinctive. For a start, I’m the one who has to do the braking!

  28. on 28 May 2008 at 4:13 pm Big Jamesie

    Well, we would gleefully engage these cretins on HYS except for 3 very good reasons:

    1. The HYS moderators are all fuckwits and would delete/disallow anything resembling intelligent debate which didn’t go along with their popularist racist views.

    2. HYS has no threading, so nobody would know who the fuck you were lambasting without taking up most of your character quota with a tiresome quotation.

    3. You can’t argue someone out of an opinion they weren’t argued into. Most of the HYS cretins are ‘instinctual’ posters, in that they spout whatever their first instinct is on any given subject. Most intelligent people pass their thoughts thruogh the filter of taste of civilization before sharing them with the world. These fuckers just open their faces and warble. You can’t argue with that sort of logic.

  29. on 28 May 2008 at 4:28 pm Jamie

    4. You can’t use the word ‘cunt’ on HYS, though it’s central to any serious analysis of HYSers.

    I’m not sure whether Elie has factored wanking time in his figures.

    The rat faced cunt.

  31. on 29 May 2008 at 12:26 pm fucko the clown

    Elie might not have been wanking but he definately had a quasi on

    (does that work as a form of semi on?)

  32. on 30 May 2008 at 6:55 am awesom-o-4000

    I really don’t think “The rat faced cunt” is an appropriate way to refer to Elie. He’s just confused. And very funny.

    Also, there’s no way the comments here resemble HYS “with a thin veneer of intellectual pretension”, unless the veneer is so thin it’s translucent to the point of invisibility. We usually just sit about calling people, erm, “rat faced cunt[s]“, don’t we?

    think this is a quasi bit better and less than obvious

    ‘Cars have become quasi instinctive in people.By petrol price hikes, they will forego reversing before giving up driving’.
