Did you just say that YouTube is better than nothing?

At times, yes.

You forgot your multiple smilies.

No, not at all, it just helps to immediately identify the poster as profoundly stupid.

So you're saying this is a stupid website since they're the ones providing the smilies.

Guess again as to who's stupid?

Yup, repeating a response word-for-word is a sure sign of profound stupidity.

Bob, would you say it's the same level of profound stupidity as when you repeat yourself, often word-for-word, over and over throughout hundreds of threads and posts -- or is your behavior a sign of an even greater profound stupidity that's off the charts?

And why is your repetition necessary, Bob? Is it not meaningful enough to be valid or valuable the first hundred times you say it? Or are you stuck in a loop... like a broken cuckoo clock... with only a limited set of things to continually repeat?

I understand that some consider it insanity, to do the same thing over and over again, and expect different results. So you are saying that Bob has made the same post over and over again, expecting different results?

He repeats the same paragraphs and blurbs, often word-for-word, and often starting new threads to say something he has already said many times.

My guess is that he doesn't really expect any results from it -- nor that he does it for that reason. I think he's used to being ignored, and being in his own world. Rather, it's simply about stroking himself in front of people. And if he can stir up some angry interaction, his own anger feeds off of that.

I say this because anytime someone has responded to him respectfully and asked reasonable questions of interest, he ignores them or lashes out. So it seems clear that he's not trying to accomplish anything other than his own self-pleasuring.
