Journal geoswan's Journal: Posts that speak for themselves... 18

About two months ago slashdotter Mike Hawk started posting in my journal. We have had some conflicts. Other people have conflicts with him too. I wish I had known about them earlier.

For the last eight months or so I have been posting a link to every journal I posted to. So, my posting record is clear.

I've decided to list Mike Hawk's recent posts too. I think they speak for themselves.

Sounds like FUD

update: 2005/04/15 15:00 GMT

Mike Hawk replied to a post I made in someone else's journal last fall. But that slashdotter seems to have erased their JE. So I moved that link to the end here.

Re:Joe Mariani's "5 lies" considered

One of my other correspondents pointed out that Mike Hawk is a homonym for "My Cock". I hadn't noticed that before.

update: 2005/04/17 2:00 GMT There is nothing wrong with an unusual name

Originally I had quotes around Mike's name. I've removed them since he has explained it is his real name. I got some kidding when I was a kid over my middle name. Not using a middle name, or going by Michael Hawk, shows a younger Mike Hawk learned the same perseverance we see today.

update: 2005/09/13 Has Mike Hawk left? Or just picked a new identity?

There has been nothing posted from his ID in the last five months. I suspect he abandoned his ID, and made one or more new ones. He is the first really rude correspondent I have had who frustrated me so much with his baseless insults that I descended to trying to responding in kind -- at least to a limited extent. I didn't find it satisfying. My second strategy, of merely tracking and listing his ugly and contradictory statements was a lot more satisfying.

  • He's a douchebag. Ignore him and move on. If you're truly concerned about such folk, learn to clean, load and fire a rifle so you can defend yourself if/when people like this come to your neighborhood to physicallyforce their twisted worldview on you.

    I still can't believe that you were listing all the evidence that our government is flying suspects (probably innocent) off to other countries to be tortured, and the whole crux of his counter-"argument" was that you used the word "fleet." OMFG U GOT PWND!!
    • Well, let me acknowledge -- you warned me.

      I didn't know him, or his record, and I made the mistake of extending courtesy and civility to him. He had another exchange yesterday with another person who didn't know him. Here is the key exchange [slashdot.org]. Peacefinder seems to have figured out a better balance of civility and wariness than I did.

  • Comment removed based on user account deletion
  • Because we are very accustomed to deal with a guy like him.

    You and XopherMV are very good friends of mine, at the same time both of you are fans of my journal. Both of you are very important people for me. I don't want both of you to have bitter verbatim with him. Honestly, if you cannot evaluate his comments, just ignore. Then if you think it's worth while to respond to his comments, then reply. Please do so.

    You believe or not, he is a very intelligent person, and to make matters more complicated, his op

  • A whole attack post dedicated to me. You're friends are right though, we're linked forever now. I also see Cyrano has newly foe'd me. Those journals aren't nearly as interesting as yours, unfortunately.

    Its quite clear to everyone that your frustration grows and grows with each post. You wish you didn't have to reply to my posts, but your journals are so weak that you couldn't possibly get away with not replying. The well-poisoning personal attacks are also failing. You know to ignore me would be to
    • A whole attack post dedicated to me.

      I find it interesting that you would characterize providing a record of your posts as an "attack" and "well-poisoning". I think letting the full body of your comments stand for themselves is eminently fair.

      You are correct. You were frustrating me. I tried responding in kind, although it was out of character for me. It was an experiment. I found that kind of frustrating too.

      You were right about the frustration. But you are wrong that I have to reply to your

      • Oh. You are welcome back to my JE anytime you sincerely want to give civility a try.

        I read your posts to HBI and OnLawn et al sucking up to them and lamenting your fall. After reading them I thought to myself that maybe you do have half a brain. Your groupies here, I'm still not so sure though.

        Respond or not. Post my other comments on not. Its all a reflection on you either way.

        Yup, and the name is Mike Hawk. Just like there was a basketball player named Ivana Mandic and a football player na
    • A whole attack post dedicated to me.

      That's nothing. I had three posts dedicated to me. And if people don't remember, they were all from My Cock, oops I mean Mike Hawk.

      The well-poisoning personal attacks are also failing. You know to ignore me would be to your peril.

      People who write idiotic [slashdot.org], incomprehensible [slashdot.org], or racially offensive crap [slashdot.org] deserve no response. Their own statements do more damage than any response could.

      Xopher quit.

      I'm still here. YOU just can't write offensive graffiti o
    • I foed you for about 5 seconds because I was going to write a JE just to tweak you, then keep you from posting in it just to aggravate you further. I decided not to, because CNN gave me fodder for something better and more purposeful.

      And nobody can shake you because you're too stupid to know what's what. What the fuck is your point? Are you proud to be an idiot or something? In fact, I'm still waiting to see a post of yours that actually has some sort of defensible content.
      • You are like a little puppet that dances for me. I need only call your name. I shall call you the_mad_pinocchio. Dance for me TMP. I can assure you that you entertain and never aggravate.
        • Oh, I'm so deeply and mortally wounded. Whatever shall I do? An internet persona called me names.

          Please, no more. It.... it cuts so deep... the pain... the ppaaaaaaaiiiiiiiin.
  • I needed this one [slashdot.org] a little while back. It certainly leaves quite an impression.
    • Whoa, you guys are discussing me. Quite an honor. You should know that I don't turn tail and run, though its quite flattering of yourself to say that. What happens is that I don't read your responses at all. My posts are so perfect and self-contained that no further replies are necessary and any disagreement is a failure of the reader, not my posts.

    Perfect?! Now THAT'S frickin hilarious.

    • Yeah, I don't want to spoil the fun for anyone, but you guys do realize he isn't serious, yes? It's an act. He's a professional troll. He posts as ridiculous and as inflamatory as he can possibly imagine, so as to gawk amusedly at your responses and prof you further. I know most of the company here, including geosawn himself, will likely not be willing to treat someone as if they are a troll. If Mike Hawk were a real person, doing so would be rude and difficult, even for the more garish of us. But, re

You know, the difference between this company and the Titanic is that the Titanic had paying customers.
