Yeah, someone was asking for a link. They didn't ask for an ID necessary for establishing it's actually me, so I throw a pic of my school idea their way with the link on the BioMed Central site and they can come in and hopefully let you guys know I'm legit.

As big a deal as this is to me (and still ought to be to anyone who feels they're entitled to have an opinion on me as an academic), I worked on it and made meaningful contributions, but I'm one of around 20 people on it (6th or so author as I recall, so up there but not the corresponding author for sure) and while I've got a lot to offer academia (as professors have echoed), I'm no Einstein (but neither was Einstin in real life, as in the stunning child and young-adult prodigy we'd expect given his name's equivalence with "genius").

This thread's getting overly fixated about me though. I really hope at some point the shroomery collectively takes me seriously, but people seem to extrapolate and bleed their ill-gotten opinions of me based on my foolishness, personal stuggles, and wildness into their opinions of me as an intellectual.

Its not a gang man, just a bunch of underage dweebs riding around on their bicycles with pieces of plastic cup mounted on their bikes so it makes a roaring sound while they ride cause it hits the wheel spikes.

And yes unless OP :pm: me that paper I'm 100% sure he is lying.

It's a gang. You've got about 2 seconds worth of due diligence to do to verify this. Look up the definition of a gang. I'm not going to explain this a third time in the same thread.

I have no idea why anyone here doubts me at all. I'll PM you the Biomed Central link, and I don't want to send you a picture of my ID just cause I don't want it hosted on Shroomery. So, reply to my PM with your email address and I'll send you an email from my university email address and we can establish that I am the person on the page that way.

I'm not going to help you guys indulge if you would like to try to nitpick and find other ways to doubt me. After all, my last doctor who was witness to the last 2 years of drug and other catastrophes, as of today, has enlisted me to help on his research and to collaborate on working out an ontological issue in Philosophy of Science. Nobody's fucking therapist hires them as a research assistant and collaborator, and hypercertainly they don't hire anyone who's dumb for such a sort of thing.

Now, I have a BMC Genomics publication link to PM and after this, I hope mellowparty will let you know that I've followed through and that we can quit wasting time talking about this. I scored in the top substantially less than one percent on my college entrance exams, if nothing else will pacify ya'll; so, suck it or shut up and get back on topic.

Adjacent to this point, I appreciate the lines of inquiry about this 'gang' from some of you and I'm enjoying and benefiting from responding to them.

I'd say it's around 17 or 18.

No serious time, although the police know that they exist as an entity and many individual members have their own past with the law, but as individuals (since it seems that making sure doings don't get legally pinned on members seems to be high on their priorities).

I'm not getting super excited about their legitimacy as a gang, but supposedly there's over $10,000 they've amassed. I trust the kid that told me that, and that's totally conceivable given that they collect $10/paycheck from each member who has a job and have likely been doing so for some time. That said, I simply cannot believe that until I see it but if/when I do, I'm quite excited and feel this will help speak to their legitimacy as a gang (and one worth studying!), making my paper seem certainly much less trivial.

Check your PM's... I hit send right as you replied there. I would like to again stress that what I feel you owe me in outing my real full name to you is you posting for my slew of poo poo-ers on here that I wasn't lying.

And do so without treating us to any further commentary or speculation, either bad or good. It's simply irrelevant and all this focus on me is absolutely stupid and is wasting everyone's time. This thread only has about 1.5 pages worth of posts on it, yet it's bloated to its current state...

OK, now you only have to send me a scan of your ID just to make sure that your name is in the authors list. Nice paper btw, I think I'm going to read up on bioinformatics more.

I can't risk having my ID hosted in a picture here. Can I get your email address so I can establish that way?

Actually no, school ID would be most epistemologically sturdy. You're gonna end up with my full name and middle initial... would it be fair to ask you to PM me your phone number so I can just text you a pic of the ID? I REALLY want to avoid a picture of a photo ID of myself being hosted on shroomery, even if this is more about personal comfort than it is actually of any practical concern, but still...


I think you may disappointingly find that the paper is not so much groundbreaking in its niche of science so much as it is showcasing what our omics resource has to offer and showing how to do it. I'd offer to point you to things that may be closer to what you're after, but to be completely honest this isn't really my field. That said, bioinformatics is a fascinating field of study and will illuminate some interesting things that have implications way outside of its confines as a field. Unfortunately, the HUGE majority of what bioinformatics comprises is rather drab and inconsequential, focusing essentially on "dayummm biology has a lot of data, so lets teach scientists some basic programming and help them automate processing". The more general digital biology would likely be of more interest to you, although it's got this same problem. It's also possible that this isn't actually the crux of what bioinformatics actually looks like as a field and that my impression of it as being such is simply a testament to my statement that this is not my field and I'm probably not the one to ask.

The last I'd like to say is that the paper's big but there are plenty of other reasons I ought to be considered a formidable intellectual, or at least respected or taken seriously. This infatuation you all have with the messenger in the case of me is very unhealthy though and wastes time, so I hope this largely allays this in the future.

Hey St1llnox - I just feel the need to address all the doubts and concerns I'm reading on this post. In my opinion it's not that people doubt your intellect or credentials; you are clearly an extremely articulate, verbose and logical being. But everytime you reiterate aforementioned credentials it rubs people the wrong way. Or rather, it inherently suggests you seek positive reinforcement or validation. Some would say this is a sign of insecurity and people tend to jump on weaknesses like a dog on a bone. But the skepticism and cyncism in those very same replies is a sign of weakness too, only of a different nature. People always have something to prove. People here on The Shroomery ESPECIALLY have something to prove, we're all part of a subculture with strong social stigmas and we come from diverse socio-economic backgrounds with differing issues. Whether people go about this through belittling others or through rational discourse, the underlying root is the same. There is a very, very fine line between humility and truth. Truth without humility is doomed to become an "arrogant caricature" of truth, as Gandhi would say.

We all need to embrace our inner "meta-attitude that constitutes the moral agent's proper perspective on himself as a dependent and corrupt but capable and dignified rational agent".

In other words, people just need to chill the fuck out. You're cool. :smile:

I'm had! I'll get to that, but thank you so much for explaining this to me. I'm not good at reading people and have trouble understanding what's behind some of the behavior I see in response to me sometimes, so this is great... thanks so much.

Anyway, YOU FUCKING WIN, and GET THIS MAN A CIGAR. You figured out what one of the worlds top psychiatrists (who I'm going to start working with on research October 1st) did not pick up on after treating me for 2 years:

I am a broken person, confidence wise. Ex psychdoc inviting me to research with him yesterday/today was the first time I've felt actual confidence in literally 2 years. You see, I spent 1.5 months in a psych hospital early in 2011 and I haven't been the same since.

The grandiosity seen in some of my posts that comes out when I'm drunk or dissociated, as well as the crumbs of "look how awesome I am" strewn about my tenure on the forum, aren't actually because I think I'm god's gift... I am, on the inside, terrified that the accomplished person I was is gone and getting outside affirmation to the contrary is a(n ultimately counter productive) attempt to feel better about it.

Hopefully with this newfound real confidence I'm starting to get, this propensity will gradually diminish and I will, in the meantime, start to try to self-intervene to keep this in check as I go.

Your post accurately explains me, explains what I need to know about why I'm seeing the responses I've been wasting time with, illuminates some truths about people and the shroomery that are good to know, brings up a psychological feature common to our subcommunity, states a couple of important truths surrounding subtle distinctions, and finally offering a very precise (and delightfully worded!) solution.

You're fucking legit dude and this reply was fantastic. I'm going to go ahead and hand on over the "God's Gift to the Shroomery" title belt I've been wearing. Apparently I've only been using it cosmetically anyway :wink:

Actually I just realized further vindication for your theory that this is largely a byproduct of how I'm dealing with insecurity:

It makes total sense that even if not a single person here doubts me as an intellectual, that THAT would be what I pick up on them as saying and assume they mean as that's what I'm really receptive of to the point of being very emotionally fragile about it and consequently defensive.

Looking further around the site and I need to correct that apparently THIS MEANS NOTHING WHATSOEVER in all likelihood as regards how good this paper ended up being or not being. I didn't realize PubMed was a government thing (a hazard of doing work outside your field), and this leads me to believe it's simply an archival/cataloguing effort rather than anything that speaks about the paper itself causing it to be on an NIH page.

So, must humbly revise.



Let's keep this thread gang-related from now on, except for when mellowparty posts to confirm that he's verified me as being one of the authors on that publication.

That's what I intend to find out... that's the point of research, after all. From what I know at this point though, it's a bit of a hybrid. They don't do any extreme violence, but are getting into drug trafficking. They also have a ranking system, as well as dues that have been amassed into a fund they use both as an emergency resource and as a way to help members with endeavors such as starting a business, or affording food if they get kicked out (as often happens with the types of kids they are).

Too late to poo-poo on this front; I was a co-author in a publication in a top 2% scientific journal two years ago, at age 21.

THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT, though:

""""""""""It's not fake. This is one of the top 5 most worthless replies I've ever seen. I can literally, absolutely guarantee you that you're (internet-wise) talking to the most influential person to science that you've ever interacted with."""""""""""

Is absolutely out of my ass... I was drunk to the point I don't remember writing this part of my reply, and feel free to write this off as the product of both alcohol-induced grandiosity and my shot-confidence-induced propensity to try to play myself up.

You seem very aragant and not scientificly influential at all. Why would you ask a drug based message board about any of this stuff if your the smartest guy in the world!? This whole thread just makes me lol.




In order to study them properly, I'm not going to be a part of the "gang" any more, although they've said I can call upon them to terrorize that psych if I need to. And it's not "my" psych.

This particular drug based message board is comprised largely of college-aged people and was a logical choice, especially since I don't want to bother with registering on another, perhaps more specialized forum.

It needn't be said any more than as follows, but you shouldn't doubt my intellect. Again, I'm already published and my membership in such organizations as Phi Kappa Phi and Poetic Genius Society (which I abhor the name of) ought to be sufficient to shut you trolls the hell up if nothing else. This also answers what PGS is.

You're turning yourself into a joke:uhhnothanks:




... I feel you're kind of off-base here. I AM unexperienced and I'm looking to take care of my lack of background in this sort of research. In fact, THIS THREAD'S WHOLE POINT WAS ME ASKING FOR A LITTLE DIRECTION to help me remove my inexperience as an obstacle.

Also, I'm well aware I'm not going to revolutionize, or--to play on that drunken and shameful bit of grandiosity from earlier--even INFLUENCE social science with what I'm hoping to do here, but I do want to learn, understand, and share what I find. To that end, I realize that I'll be publishing through an undergraduate sociology journal rather than the journal Nature or some other tome of influence/pristige.

I am curious as to how you think I'm making myself into a joke? I've been a little dumber than normal lately (i.e. that DXM to help me with statistics stunt :facepalm: /cringe), and I doubt some of my drunken, asinine grandiosity helped, but at the same time I'd have thought I'm finally becoming the person I used to be and am at the core, who is worth taking seriously. Can you give me any meaningful feedback/criticism? PM me if you'd like, as these faults--if real--could certainly be spilling over into meatlife and affecting me and those around me negatively in that venue too.

Are your gang bros white supremacists?  I've never heard of any legit white gang that wasn't in to white power.




DMI, Dead Man Inc, a prison gang out of baltimore...i have a few friends who joined them while in jessup (baltimores prison) they have close ties to the black guerrilla family, in fact they actually carried out some hits for them at one point :shrug:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Man_Incorporated




That's interesting to know about the white supremacy thing. This gang, (no longer, or never having been) "mine", isn't white supremacist, or even racist. I thought they were rather dumb at first, but in talking to their leader, I've found him to actually be very competent and to even be a bit of an intellectual, albeit one primarily devoted to the gang world.

Another thing that sets this gang apart is that they, VERY CURIOUSLY I would contend, do not have any interest in other gangs, either interacting with them or stomping them out or acquiring their turf or anything else. They're more an organization to serve their own members ends, primarily protection as well as having power readily available to exert if they should ever find themselves in a position where they need to do so.

I do hope this thread may continue with more useful information about gangs, as well as as an opportunity for me to address any curiousities any of you have.

Or better yet, perhaps someone who's studying sociology can give me a book suggestion, if the one they used was good of course.



Sure. You're an egomaniac.  I guarantee you there are far more intellectual people here that don't feel the need to continously  ssy what a genius they are. I know you genuinely think you're some sort of prodigy.  You're a smart guy sure....but nothing else suggests you're beyong that. You're not that funny but continuously make threads that are usually screaming "look at me"
The statements you made about your intellect are ridiculous. ...drunk or not. I can't help but think you do really believe that but maybe humble yourself a little more when sober.
Take a note from Shulgins book and stfu. Your babbling ego attracts flak like a fucking tank.

Do you think my genomics publication was an excuse to do drugs



I think you're lying. What was your publication about?



He has never produced any proof of this great feat he accomplished.




My name is on an academic paper as well. I was an intern in a lab at NIH in college and ran western blots for the lead researcher. I did grunt work. There were about 20 names on that paper,

As you know, different labs and institutions have different standards for authorship.  I know some investigators that routinely put their lab technicians on papers, others refuse to do so. 

This is why the first (or senior) author is what matters most.  Often the corresponding author is the PI of the lab, and his/her name appears last.

The names in the middle, meh, nobody really cares.  I'm amazed OP continues to boast about this paper as if he won the noble prize.  The reality is that it's pretty insignificant.
