Byrne on Moore & Brits

[Matt Timson]

I hovered over the send button of a post that was pretty much guaranteed to get me banned, but I wimped out in the end- mainly because I went on holiday, the thread had died while I was gone, and posting it would've made me look a bit too much like 'last word' Cairns.

Needless to say, I saved it- just in case I find myself drunk in charge of a keyboard in the near future...

That Gaiman thread... Jesus H Christ, Byrne's a monster of unreason. Apparently now you need to have MET SPIELBERG in order to say that one of his films didn't hit the mark. Because he needs to have TOLD YOU THAT HIMSELF. Otherwise it is merely your SILLY OPINION and you should know your place, which is in the slime.

Unless you're JB for HE IS THE ROCK AND THE CHAIN AND THE LIGHTNING and anything he says is right.

for fans of Byrne's unreason, there is also the "which one of my comics made you start reading comics" thread (which he closed due to off-topicness and insufficient adoration) and the "man or menace" thread in which Byrne trawls the rest of the web, looks at "Byrne-bashing" and concludes that people criticise him because they're idiots who can't think for themselves and that his childish rudeness to people who disagree with him is due to his being provoked. He only calls people assholes when he has to due to their unreasonably supporting pedophilia by buying Alan Moore books.
  Oh and his faces don't look the same. He said so.

Interesting;y he started that thread all about how people don't like him but when I commented that commented about what people on his board think of me he made a snide comment about 'hairshirts'. It's okay if you're Byrne though.

well you killed John Lennon - a hairshirt is the least you could do

[Carlsborg Expert]

No that was JD Salinsbury.

[Rob Spalding]

What is the deal with the Hairshirt comment, I don't get it.

[DavidXBrunt]

Medieval monks used to wear them as a pennance, so they could never luxuriate in comfort. It's a Byrne Forum comment implying someone is enjoying being hard done too.

I posted a thread about cheap graphic novels, including Byrne drawn ones, available from Asda and said that despite what people think of me, things like 'nihilistic whinger' and 'her like follower of a peadophile', I thought other people might be interested. So after telling his fans how to get his books he came over and insulted me. Whilst at the same time bemoaning Byrne Bashers.

Elsewhere Emery Calamare is still trying to start Moore arguements, even in topics about Rex the Wonder Dog.

Meanwhile I want to leave but can't.

DXB, Floyd-K:

Come away from the edge!  I know you only meant to do good, but you're just feeding him.  He's a negative energy vampire.

(As for Emery the Mad, he seems to have been cursed by a witch to use twenty words instead of one wherever possible - and none of them interesting.)

[I, Cosh]

I've been quite enjoying DXB's gradual transformation from placatory voice of reason to snide Byrne-baiter who can't quite be accused of simple trolling. Clever stuff.

[Matt Timson]

That Emery is a proper cunt of the first order...

[Quirkafleeg]

When you stare into the pit...

[Matt Timson]

Isn't Richard and Judy on?

[Rob Spalding]

Go read Emery's dissection of why Hero is communist capitulation propaganda.
I bet his neck is a lovely shade of rouge.
