I really hate this Orgone guy. He goes around correcting peoples spelling! I mean big fucking deal, unless hes desperately trying to convey his imagined superior intelligence, its not necessary if its READABLE! This is an internet forum for christ sake. As if someone who confused than and then offhandedly ARE really stupid, like he is implying. Only insecure people act like that. Only insecure people have to belittle people like that, because they are bitter.
I am not saying he is insecure, but he does things that insecure people do. I mean he did it twice above.

Are you saying that an inability to properly use words has nothing to do with intelligence?
Whose job is it to correctly convey information: the reader or the writer?

ITS NOT THE INABILITY! It's the depth of understanding that you apparently can't see that we aren't writing papers for a fucking university on this forum. We are writing informal posts where the perfect grammar and spelling aren't a big deal!! I assure you he knows the difference between "than" and "then", and how to spell "difference"!
And even so, even without the ability, it does NOT mean someone is dumb! There are a lot of reasons why someone could be bad at spelling but still be very intelligent. Get over yourself!
Nobody thinks highly of grammar Nazis, I assure you. No one thinks people who go around correcting peoples spelling are geniuses. They just think they are douches. They only see through their insecurity and self importance. The lowest, bitterest people act like that on the INTERNET. People like that should pull the stick out of their asses.

What is most interesting from a psychological perspective is how you have set yourself up as the spokesman of all mankind. Have you polled 7 billion people? No. Yet you pretend that everyone else is as emotionally out of control as yourself and that you speak for them. This is highly delusional.

I will tell you since you are new here that usually OC is a lot of fun. He's just cantankerous today. (I hope I spelled that correctly.)

He's not cantankerous, he just has a low tolerance for BULLSHIT!

quinn said: yeh that sounds about right... i guess another related factor might be how everything is so specialized these days and we feel insecure about really understanding anything (from art to physics)...
also how there is like SO MUCH information on the internet 
I watched a documentary that touched on that idea briefly, it's main point being that it is difficult for any one man to view the whole picture in depth. The internet makes it problematic in finding reliable unbiased material. You can, I believe, find literature to back up or discredit all manner of phenomena. You have to be careful not to get sucked in.
About ten years back I sat up most of one night reading about the Dulce wars, which if you don't know are an alleged war between humans and aliens under New Mexico. I was enthralled, I couldn't understand why someone would take the time to fabricate such a story, and they seemed so adamant that this was true. I also got sucked in by the disclosure project and Bob Lazar. I am getting help

Instinctively, as do the shipwrecked, he will look round for something to which to cling, and that tragic, ruthless glance, absolutely sincere, because it is a question of his salvation, will cause him to bring order into the chaos of his life.

I know. People who troll are often bitter losers in real life, which is why they act like that online. Also usually ugly.

That was a trick I learned from Wayne Dyer. In his book 'Erroneous Zones' he points out how people cannot accept reality including their physical appearance. The punchline: He is bald as fuck and the cover photo is chopped off at the forehead.
