    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Shrillomn, a brief expose

Alicia,
As you were so quick to jump on the Griz express, why don't you dazzle us with your sleuthing. The dance is yours.


I already did a few pages back at why i think it is you. If youre not. then say so. Its really quite simple. and if i were in your position, id be denying it and showing any proof i can.

But see, i tell the truth ALL the time here. so i dont have to worry about that sort of thing! ^_-

Alicia, while I don't think that's quite what he meant (though I cannot be sure from the little snippet of a post you quoted), I've found this to be a pretty common thing....people who are very intelligent, i.e. "book smart", but are completely lacking in common sense, i.e. "street smarts" or just plain real world skills. In other words....they could probably do very well on a MENSA test, but when it comes to dealing with the average person and average relationships on a day-to-day basis, they bumble like an idiot. ;)


Thats a good point Cat. Im really just giving it back to him. If he can dish it out. he can certainly take it... it was a little uncalled for though...

Ive seen LOTS of people like that and it really makes you wonder... How the heck do you make it across TOWN safely!? :p Though i could also understand those that just dont have really good skills at dealing with people in real life. which is a true problem and not something i would ever condemn somone for. ( i personally have had this problem for awhile.... im a bit on the hard edged side of things.. so its hard to get people to understand and take me well) I really have to feel comfortable in a situation to be able to be myself. ^_-

There are a few complaining about shrilly, to paraphrase, pulling strings and pushing buttons. IF that IS the case, why are YOU posting on this thread?

Don't know if that part was for me, but in case it was. HHmmm.......I only complained about the fact that he's hiding behind some 50 cent moniker. Or she, what ever the case may be. The rest has been purely entertaining to me. Like you, I can sit back and laugh at all this. It affects me none what so ever. :D


Carry on, I'll just read from now on. :thumbsup:

Gee Rick, you posted on this monster?

LOL

It wasn't really meant for anyone in particular. It's just that I see some serious complaining about this thread and the serious complainers are just contributing to that which they are seriously complaining about, which strikes me as both somewhat uninformed and rather amusing.

There is almost always more than one way to look at a given situation, which some of the serious complainers seem to have either overlooked or never been made aware of at all.

Just because YOU, not anyone in particular, see things in one certain way, does it in any way obligate or necessitate anyone else seeing it the same way and if they do not see it as you, the serious complainer does, it does not necessarily negate either your view or theirs.

Try the macroscopic setting instead of the microscopic one, it's refreshing.
 
Cathy,
You seem familiar with idiots ? Mmmmmm ....

Alicia,
If you note, I "attack" members because it does matter to them. Unlike many here, I do not throw the first punch. I use only the tone, and often exact words, as used previously by the "member" who was on the attack when I chimed in. Think what you will, but I am considering a line from a John Wayne movie on my tombstone "I ain't looking for trouble, but if trouble comes a'callin, I reckon I won't be hard to find." I have also requested that I be buried face down, so I can see my way :D . Seriously, if someone chooses the word "liar", my thesaurus says that "idiot" is an equal, and even more honorable, rebuke. Now, in all honesty, help me here. These are your quotes:

If you were to say you were not "pez" and it was true i would Apologize
and ...
If youre not. then say so. Its really quite simple. and if i were in your position, id be denying it and showing any proof i can.

As I explained in an earlier post regarding Bob's accusation, please take a moment to read it again, if perhaps not for the first time. Look again at the "wisdom" of your posts. Bob makes an accusation. You are telling me "I should be denying it and showing any proof I can". Prove a negative ? Because Bob pointed his finger ? My "word" is not part of Bob's proof. Sorry Alicia, but not only can a negative not be "proven", but the burden of proof lies with the accuser. You say "if my denial is true" ? Alicia, why is the burden not on the accuser's "proof" ? Frankly, I'm going to call Bob a chicken until he backs up his accusation. How do you intend to apologize Alicia, if it comes to that ?

I said that I was going to have fun with Bob's accusation. If nothing else, it was to see "how many idiots jumped on Bob's bandwagon". We are at three now, although Wes did backpedal a bit. Next.

actually, he first asked you if you were... then you said some long ranty thing which i dont remember now, and he then posted a reply to that since you didnt want to answer a question outright, that he then accused you on it. Since you needed specifics and such...

If i have to apologize, you will see it when it happens. But i most certainly Will apologize to you, right here in this very forum. Theres nothing WRONG with that, and im not afraid of it! if im wrong, im wrong! I wont explain that to you as it would kind of defeat the purpose of a Full meant apology now wouldnt it? Sure i might look like a big jerk for thinking it might be you as "pez" ( im not accusing you, i just think it might be you) but at least ive the guts to admit im wrong when i am.

and i can truthfully say i mean EVERY word i write.
 
Alicia,
If you go back earlier in the thread, you will see more about this. Regardless, Bob did not respond "No, I am just asking", now did he ? He's been called out by several here as to "where's the beef ?".

I don't know what is sadder Alicia, you thinking its me for whatever reason motivates you, or you even feeling that throwing around accusations about this was the kind of thing you needed to be a part of to begin with. I do hold Bob to a higher standard than you, as you are barely an adult, and Bob has been one for some time.
 
You want to know what's really sad!!

I made myself some PopCorn before catching up on this thread tonight!! Now If I'd of had to pay 10 bucks for this entertainment I'd want a refund---- Ah man I did pay for this.!!!!!!LMAO Don't even like popcorn that much..

Come on guys someone stick a fork in this thread and call it done... Randy

After this im done Promise.



Ill tell you what is sadder, as it WAS somewhat silly of me in the first place. Ill admit it.

Me Posting on here stating outright that i think it was you. I really should have just done so in private, and seen how things played out.without stating thoughts that were not permanent. But i didnt, i acted and posted and now ill just have to deal with that/you now wont i? I think i can handle that though!
its my fault and i brought this fire on myself, i like to be in on things and participate and for that, i am at fault in this.

But, just so you know, Age dosnt always have a factor on ones actions. ^_-
I dont consider myself as anything but myself here at fauna. i dont see myself as anything special here and i am NOT above anyone. even you jim. My knowledge could never compare. I am here to learn, and be a part of this hobby as much as anyone. Granted, id rather avoid tiffs like this in the future, as its really draining!!! Im not here to be better than, or worse than anyone.

Jim, I am sorry i thought/think you are Pez, i hope you are not, ( because that wouldnt be too good for you and your business) and really hope that it really is just a real troll being dumb.

Sure that makes me look silly, but if its written down. i mean it. Wether you accept it or not, well.. that is to be seen i suppose. Im going to hop off of this thread though. I just hope everything is all cleared up in the end.

I am Sorry.
 
I don't think its Jim F or Wes .
I think the Slave knows who it is.
And i think he has his blessings.
Otherwise the entity would not exist.
I think its part of that secret new experiment he's cooking up.

Lots of folks talk about being able to prove who it is,but have yet to see any real proof of that.

The only thing i see is a Fauna conspiracy implosion.
And its sadly entertaining.
Go Team!! :bang:

You were so adamant and sure of your convictions just a post or two back.
You looked like you had some weight of salt to you.
You stood your ground and pushed back.
I'm disappointed. :(
I thought you were a contender.

You keep using line breaks.
Instead of spaces.
After punctuation.
It reads very strangely.
 
Alicia,
At this point, I think I have milked it for all that I can, trying to goad Bob and others. Bob as tucked tale and run. Here's my sworn statement, although if I would hide behind a cloak, how could my word mean squat anyway ? I am not the Shrill. Never was. No real clue who is. Just a hunch or two. Wish I had the internet and computer acumen that Rich claimed was necessary earlier in the thread when he posted the IP data. Rhetorically asking, how does my denial change anything ? As I alluded to, my word is only as good as my honor, and for any regular poster to be Shrill, they have tossed their honor in the interim.

Its not about apologies. You are still young, and this forum is full of a lifetime of stupidity. And yes, Wes leads that parade. If I have made a hobby of being obviously in Wes' face, why would I then assume a meek roll to take rabbit punches at him when I already launch salvos ?

Why the BS from Bob ? I don't know. For those that care to speculate, I have to be on everyone's "top 5" list. But most have the wisdom to see the downsides of coming here with "proof" unless they really have it. And why bother ? This thread is not about Shrill's posts. Call it entertainment, stupidity, serious debate, etc, I have to agree with Wes that the discussion here ain't Shrill. It was folks pissed with Wes, stated every way possible. It was his supporters vs. his detractors, and other related opinions about things here. What is clear is that Shrill knows things very well here, and writes well. To that extent I enjoyed the accusation. Even Bob's posts aren't about Shrill. They are about someone having diminished honor, and I guess he wanted it to be me.

Call me an a$$hole. Just don't call me a dishonorable a$$hole. That's for you Bob.

66. You are learning ! However, the learning curve is "one step backward, two steps forward" Grasshopper.

Yea , I was trying to get a certain speaking type effect. I guess it didn't work out right.
Thanks, at least i know it didn't really work right.Wont try it again.
 
I wish I had completed this post prior to your last one Jim. I was composing it as you hit submit.

I, personally, never thought you were Shrillomn Not your style. Like you, hate you, no one can say that you lack the guts to engage on any topic under your own identity. There have been a number of times i have disagreed with your stand on certain topics, but I have always thought you put a lot of thought into the stands you take.

Now that the BS identity scramble has lost a suspect, hopefully we can resume things in a little more civil manner.

You were starting to make me nervous Jim. I thought you were channelling Wes in a couple of those posts. Better grammar and they actually made sense but the venom was seeping in. :rofl:

I was biting my tongue too !

Bob, where are you ! Reader's here, might I suggest that Bob's "proof" hasn't changed ? I could be lying through my teeth. C'mon Bob. Be the man.

Or, is it possible, that maybe you let yourself get a bit too caught up in it all ? I still have the same phone number.

Thanks John. Agree, disagree, etc. Its always a pleasure doing either with you.

And Wes .......... blood running from my bleeding tongue as I type ...... still a Merry Christmas :santa:

Was that serious?
 
Mark, Otter, eejit .......
No, John is a miscreant, and is lying. I am a liar, and despite the fun I have blasting Wes in broad daylight, I will continue to put the kid-gloves on and tap him as Pez "Excuse me sir, but you aren't very nice today .....". Little too much frostbite on the brain up there Mark ?

Roll out your conspiracy theory. BTW, picnic on the grassy knoll was a joy today ... just me and the "gang". Tomorrow its a charity ball with a bunch of "right wing types". After our success with Monica, we figured to plot a way to get a dead woman or live boy into Barack Obama's bed. I'm supposed to take the pictures. Any ideas eejit (its Irish)?
 
chumpco never denied being shrilly. I don't think he is all by himself but wouldn't rule him out either.

It's amusing to be sure and some of you are forgetting, or so it seem to me, that this is all utter nonsense, of no real meaning OTHER than this: when one is confronted with a direct question, necessitating a yes or no answer, if you are one whose word is not taken as true, chumpco, then EVERYTHING you say comes into question, is not automatically given the credence, the weight, the bearing of those who, while perhaps seen as unpleasant or over the top on occasion, are NOT doubted when they make a statement.

Funny how that worked out, neh?
