It's pretty simple. Anybody who pops off like some kind of know-it-all
here better have something to show for it, 'cause whether it's a hobby
or a profession, nearly everybody here has invested time, money and
survival.

That's not what he said. How did you get from being negative or unfriendly to
"popping off like some kind of know-it-all"?

That's what I'm saying. You pop off like some kind of know-it-all. Ask
around.

Look, I wasn't "mean" to you and I didn't "bully" you as you accuse many
people of doing here. In fact, I had you killfiled until I switched
newsreaders because you're annoying, obtuse, clueless and generally full
of ****. As in, you pop off like some kind of know-it-all.

The pilots here have received training from instructors who are
obviously qualified enough to be alive, passed checkrides from examiners
who are authoritative, flown hundreds of thousands of combined hours and
lived to tell about it, some of them have actually build and flown their
own aircraft, and yet you've never sat behind the yoke of a Cessna 152
but yet you STILL contradict everything everybody says to you here.

Everything. Observe your own posts and see.

I don't know it all, but I apparently know a great deal more than a lot of
people do. To them, it sounds like I'm trying to sound impressive, because
they have a hard time believing that a person could know that much. Rather
than accept that this is possible, they prefer to believe that it's all an act
or some sort of deliberate affection, which I suppose preserves their egos.

However, that is their problem, not mine. People who are reasonably
intelligent and untroubled by insecurity do not react in this way, and people
who are stupid and insecure do not interest me.

I don't recall directing any accusations at you.

So why don't you killfile me again?

Hundreds of hours is nothing. I have about 30,000 hours of driving
experience, but that doesn't make me an expert driver. Pilots with hundreds
of hours are often at the greatest risk of being killed, because they don't
really have much experience, but they think they do.

No, you don't.

You come of as a dumb ass dilletante because the bottom line is
YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA and you prove it every time you post.

You are too ****ing stupid to understand that you do have more experience
driving than someone who has never driven a car. Once again, you've proved
that YOU DON'T KNOW **** FROM SHINOLA!

Apparent to whom? You? That doesn't count, because you're not
qualified to suggest to trained, licensed pilots than you know "a great
deal more" than they do anymore than you're qualified to say the same to
a Marine about combat or a doctor about medicine.

Like I said, you contradict everything everybody says to you and you're
a fraud and a poser. It's not just the low-time pilots; there are
FLIGHT INSTRUCTORS out here telling you you're full of **** and you
still lack the intellectual capacity to catch the clue.

So why don't you killfile me again?

Done, jackass.

Those who find me intimidating.

Then why do I see replies from you after this one?

30000 hours of driving would be 14.2 years of driving 8 hours a day 5 days a
week 52 weeks a year. While it's possible that you have that much driving
experience given that you claim to be too poor to have a car I really don't
believe it. Unless your counting simulator time then all bets are off but
so is your claim of having the experience.

About 400,000 km at a very low average speed, in heavy traffic. A lot of
driving, in any case.

While it's possible that you have that much driving
experience given that you claim to be too poor to have a car I really don't
believe it.

It doesn't really matter what you believe.
