The thing i am noticing is that the people who are jealous, are copying,
or a bit behind naturally because they are not as intellectually
competent as we who just spam all day.
What they do, is ignore you, after having a short to-do trying to beat
you in print and failing because of having a lower IQ, and then they
imitate you, hoping no one will notice, which shows how thick they are.
A guy called Jeffrey Side, who is the Mincey Robbins of some gawd
forsaken academic shit-tip in Northern England, for whom Ez is top head
and really, deluded as whatsiface MR Ra ra royal kings, we’re all queens
of make-believe.
I am wiorking up some very juicy satire i am going to polish right before
firing it at the target/s, skeletonizing pretty well, for a European who
outgrew the British scene, which is just like America: all academic back
slapping so ingrained they are oblivious to their deficiencies as
intellectual arties, and really, Trav and Mick, are just little kids who are
not that clever."
