OT: Blues Forum Lounge (Home of All Things OT) - Part 2024-2025

[stl76]

Okay. Then you got nothing. Just as I thought. Only ridicule. Carry on.

I am posting information, not beliefs.

And I shall carry on. This will resonate with lots of people here, but not people like you who want to only ridicule and discredit.

Information, not beliefs.

See you in the GDTs. Toodles!!

You’re posting nonsense and lashing out about a matrix and non player characters. Surprised you haven’t used the word “sheeple” yet lol. Literally, you’re posting pictures of clouds.

What are these?

1st pic is Phoenix on Halloween morning 2024.
2nd pic is Collinsville, IL on Halloween morning 2024.

The NPCs of the world will never wake up and they will never understand what is happening.
This is for the real people; those with real souls. And it is for the real souls who are asleep right now struggling to maintain their lives as is. Sorry to break to you, but it ain't gonna work.

This is happening all over the country and in other countries. Who has the guts?

You’re obviously free to keep posting as long as mods decide it’s within site rules. Personally I don’t really care what you believe, what you eat doesn’t make me shit. But you’re treating a hockey forum like a personal blog, and when post things this dumb, sorry but you deserve ridicule IMO.

I believe they are contrails that lingered in the sky for a long period of time. I believe in the science behind contrails expanding and lingering versus the implication that they are something else designed for a nefarious purpose. If you believe they are something else, what is it that you think they are, their purpose, and who put them there, and what is the evidence for those beliefs? Below us a primer on why some contrails expand and linger:

“Contrails (short for “condensation trails”) form when water vapor in the exhaust of aircraft engines condenses and freezes into ice crystals at high altitudes, typically above 26,000 feet where the air is cold and often below -40°F (-40°C). The behavior of these contrails—whether they dissipate quickly or persist and spread—depends on the atmospheric conditions at those altitudes.

Key Factors for Persistent Contrails:

1. Humidity Levels:

• If the air is supersaturated with respect to ice, meaning it contains more moisture than it can hold at its current temperature, the contrail’s ice crystals can attract additional water vapor and grow. This causes the contrail to persist and expand over time.

• In contrast, if the air is dry, the ice crystals sublimate (turn directly into water vapor) quickly, and the contrail disappears within minutes.

2. Temperature:

• Extremely cold temperatures favor the formation and persistence of ice crystals, allowing contrails to remain visible for longer periods.

3. Wind and Turbulence:

• Winds at high altitudes can spread contrails, causing them to expand and form cloud-like streaks. Stable air conditions with little turbulence also support their persistence.

4. Altitude and Pressure:

• Aircraft flying at altitudes where atmospheric pressure and temperatures are conducive to ice formation are more likely to leave persistent contrails.


Contrails and Cirrus Clouds:


Persistent contrails can spread and merge, forming artificial cirrus clouds. These contrail-induced clouds can linger for hours and impact local weather patterns by trapping heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, contributing to a small warming effect.

In summary, contrails expand and persist when the atmosphere at flight level has high humidity and the right temperature conditions to sustain ice crystals.”

I’ve read and heard all of this crap before and it won’t be the last time.

Science today is a joke.

Of all of the stuff I’ve been posting over the last six months, I finally touched upon a subject that has triggered the algorithms.

Not surprised.

I answered your question, but you haven’t answered mine. I think we’re done here.

Seems like you're trying to provoke some sort of push back when you're calling people who don't agree NPCs or matrix defenders.

Chi Blues escaped from Bellevue again. Call his handler.

 

[ChicagoBlues]

Tell me about science.

It is the new religious dogma. Go against what so-called scientists pump out and you get burned for it.

I knew this was going to happen and I’m okay with it.

Tell me about science and scientific integrity.

The algorithms have been fully triggered now. Well done. Right on cue.

We want to know about your evidence to the contrary of the science, but you’re deflecting. Some of us are actually curious why you believe what you believe, but you don’t seem interested in engaging in that conversation. Also, are you suggesting that I’m a bot by referencing a trigger to the algorithms?

There is no conversation.

You see people? This is what happens when you go against religious dogma.

Ok then, I should have listened to myself when I said earlier that we were done here.

Ok fellas. It’s been fun. I’ve posted some very controversial content that is very upsetting for some people. I understand. I really do. This is not lost on me. I’ve received adequate and expected push back. And I am fully aware that going against scientific/religious dogma upsets people beyond what is reasonable.

I understand.

Love you all.

Favorite hardcore punk band. Dead Kennedys - ‘Trust Your Mechanic’ - 1982

TV invents a disease
You think you have
So you buy our drugs
And soon you depend on them

Pain is in your mind
Gotcha commin' back for more
Again and again and again and again
Gonna rip you off
Rip you off


Doctor says you need surgery now
Feelin' good 'til the side effects
f*** up something else
You're ensnared by the medicine man
Paying up the ass


Again and again
Gonna rip you off


Trust your mechanic to mend your car
Bring it in to his garage
He tightens and loosens a few spare parts
One thing's fixed, another falls apart
And the rich eat you


A magazine says your face don't look quite right
Unless you wear our brand new wonder creme tonight
Never look right again
Unless you grease your skin
Again and again and again and again
Gonna rip you off


Told you're depressed
So of course you see the psychiatrist
Right when it hits your neuroses' roots
He confuses you

He f***s your head up worse
Gotcha feelin' helpless
You're comin' back for more
Again and again
Gonna rip you off
Rip you off


Trust your mechanic
To make you well
You're seeing an awful lot of him now
The quicker he makes your life fall apart
The more money you put in his pockets


Trust your mechanic
To plug your holes
Trust him to make more
Somewhere else
Trust your mechanic
He'll always come through
And rip you off.

Dead Kennedys - 'Well Paid Scientist' - 1982

You're a well paid scientist
You only talk in facts
You know you're always right
'Cause you know how to prove it, step by step

A PhD to show you're smart
With textbook formulas
But you're used up
Just like a factory hand

Something is wrong here
You won't find in on a shelf
You're well-paid, you're well-trained
You're tied to a rack

Company cocktails, gotta go
Say the right thing don't fidget, jockey for position
Be polite in the pyramid you hate
Sip that scotch, get that raise, this ain't no party at all

Something is wrong here
You won't find in on a shelf
You're well-paid, you're well-trained
You're tied to a rack

Cringe and tense up, grind your teeth
And wipe your sweaty palms
Close your windows driving past the lowlife company bar
They're making fun of you

Ha!

Ah, even you
You've gotta punch the clock, why don't you punch your boss?

Ah, even you
You just punch the clock, too scared to punch your boss

When will you crack?
When will you crack?
When will you...
Open your eyes, open your eyes, open your eyes?

Pull up to your sterile home, you're drained
Bite the heads off of your kids
Chew them well, they taste like you, just slam the door

Assigned here 'cause your company owns the land
All your colleagues live here too
Private guards in golf carts keep you safe at home?

Something is wrong here
You won't find in on a shelf
You're well-paid, you're well-trained
You're tied to a rack

When will you crack?
When will you crack?
When will you crack?
When will you crack?

The dark shattered underbelly of the American dream
Avoid it like the plague
It stares you from your bathroom mirror

Drown!

'Life Sentence' - 1982

You used to be a partner in crime
Now you say you ain't got the time
Gotta get serious, gotta plan
Gotta pass those entrance exams

Oh my God
It's senior year
All you care about is your career

It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence

You're squelching your emotions
All you talk about is old times
You don't do what you want to
But you do the same thing everyday

No sense of humor
But such good manners
Now you're an adult
You're boring

It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence
It's a Life Sentence

The walls are closing in
You stayed too long in school

I'd rather stay a child
And keep my self-respect
If being an adult
Means being like you

Are you really you you you
You you you you you you
Are you really you?
No

You're a chained-up dog fenced in a yard
Don't see much, you can't go far
Pace and froth, you're getting sick
Run too fast and it'll snap your neck

You say you'll break out
But you never do
You're just another ant in the hill
That's your Life Sentence

I'm going to place every member of HF on my ignore list and see what happens.

 

[Celtic Note]

I'm going to place every member of HF on my ignore list and see what happens.

It’s become such an echo chamber around here lately that it will probably just be the same ole, same ole 5 or so people talking at each other hastily.

 

[Memento]

I'm going to place every member of HF on my ignore list and see what happens.

According to a person on the mains in one thread, there's a limit: 1,000 blocks allowed. I also doubt that people here can block moderators and admins.

I was just joking anyway.

I had a few people on the ignore list and then one day, a couple years ago, I looked at my ignore list and saw how much entertainment I was missing, so I emptied the list.

Speaking of the echo chamber…..

Why can't I buy alcohol from 2-6am?

I work the night shift and feel discriminated against! Lol

And does anyone else remember the blue laws? I remember we had to drive to Illinois to shop on Sundays growing up.

Stupid laws....
