Who is DaveDave?

[jetson]

I'll be honest, I don't like the impression he gives. His ideas and views are more than welcome and controversy is brilliant for debate and he seems intelligent enough to offer something and in that sense I can understand why some people find him charming, but he strikes me as arrogant and petty, which he doesn't need to be and I don't understand why he has a stick up his arse (because he was banned? *shrugs*). Unless he refuses to stick to forum rules then I have no issue him being here, but of course, if he continues being a douchebag, then don't expect me to get along with him. He was told there would be no restriction on what he could say, that suggests he's being given special treatment. I find it hard to tolerate the arrogant theists we get on here, so there's a chance I won't tolerate his behaviour either. Though of course, my impression could be wrong, I don't know the guy, so it's difficult to say anything based on impression. Maybe he'll show why he's more valuable than every other member on this forum in time, I mean, if the mods have given in to his demands, there must be something special, right? *shrugs*

This is false (bold).

And that s**t he said to the paperback chick was bitchslap worthy where I come from.

Bahhh haaaa haah aha - ahh, ok that brought a great mental image, and I feel better today.  Thanks Raymond

I'd hate to have him gone over something petty.

Guess I'd like to know what's "petty".

Arresting John Gotti for failing to use correct postage rather than for being a gangster that ruins lives.  The forum equivalent would be banning Dennis Markuze because he uses too many run on sentences and improper quote formatting.

[Davedave]

Edited:  I see that he has +20 respect points and he's only been back here a short time.  That's already more than I have so he must be doing something right that I haven't read yet.  I now have an inferiority complex....

Don't feel too badly.  This respect system doesn't count minuses.

[DVZ3]

Thanks, I realize that.  Is that you in your avatar pic?  If so I like your hat.  Are you a real cowboy or just pretending to be?  I have a real problem with people who pretend to be.... 

[Davedave]

No, I'm no goatroper.  I'm also no cowboy; that's Don Imus.  I suppose it's time to nix the pic.  The joke wasn't that funny or timely to begin with and now it's just old.

I'm a surfer.

Every time I see a story like this, and there are many, I think of DaveDave:

Teacher Arrested After Allegedly Having Student's Baby

A Redlands, Calif., high school teacher who allegedly gave birth to a baby fathered by a teen student has been arrested for having a sex with the male pupil.

[Nick]

Was it a sex ed class?

[kin hell]

what a strange resurrection   ...either way I was curious 


...either Ray was back from the dead, and that'd be a good thing  zombie Ray who'd have whole meaty gobbets to hurl along with that wit 
And I still miss that bloke when I re-read this stuff

or someone expressing interest in Davedave who's been dead to me even longer, ......but without the regret.

I don't know, I always liked DaveDave but being an asshole[1] myself, I might be biased.

1.	but not of his magnificent caliber

[Nam]

Well, I'm not overly interested in his rhetoric... I'm interested in why people would put up with the Napolean Complex.

I get that a lot of old schoolers seem to think he's really "intelligent", but who cares? It's not like there's a deficiency of wisdom or insight here. Does he really have enough positive s**t to bring to the table, that it will outweigh the tectonic plate on his shoulder?

This isn't a recruiting center for millitant atheists, last I checked... It's a forum for discussion. Civil discussion, ideally. Kind of why I joined in the first place.

I guess I'm a little concerned. I'm not inclined to hang around much if I have to listen to King NoGod telling me to KISS THE RINGS all the time.

I don't care if he's the most brilliant mofo since Elmer Fudd, dude comes across as an unbelievably beligerant dick... Like a freaking cartoon character of all the worst atheist stereotypes rolled into one.

I have zero patience for that s**t. It doesn't do anybody any favors, and I don't see myself behaving very well when he inevitably hops on the megaphone and starts screaming "PUSSY!" at me. 

I see myself getting banned with a quickness, actually. And I don't want to see that happen. 

edit: I suppose I could just not interact with him, obviously, but A.)That's a punk move, just staying quiet to keep the waters still, and B.)It pisses me off just as much to see him treat OTHER people like s**t when it's completely uncalled for.

I guess you and I can't be friends.

Don't sell yourself short. 

[Nam]

No, no. I'm nothing compared to DaveDave. I just care about people too much[1].

1.	I'm sorry, I laughed so hard I peed a little

Holy crap! You guys really scared me until I saw this was from 2011.
