Yay! I got a shout out!

Really though, I hardly think that views based on personal vendettas could be interpreted as bad just because they're written by a "right-wing artist."

Also, I sense that Sweet is still lumping us together as all being progressives. If that is the case, he must have a really monochromatic view of the world where there's only the heroic intelligent conservatives that love Belch Dimension and the evil stupid progressives that want to destroy America and "roadblock" a nearly 40-year old man in the middle of nowhere in Arkansas for some reason with "ploys."

Also, I think it's worth repeating - I'm not progressive, and I doubt most of us here are. Some of us aren't even American. It's a vast and diverse universe outside of Arkansas.

PS: No, I didn't think the pie-throwing incident was real.
 
I'm fairly sure Bill Gates is a progressive. At least he would be progressive to Sweets since he does a lot of philanthropy, especially for Africa.

To be fair, I'm progressive and actively work to keep Sweets down with my ploys. My compatriots and myself really have nothing better to do than troll the bad boy of college journalism. In fact, chemtrails were developed only to give Sweets a sore throat.
 
Whenever Jon complains about the "abuse" he gets from us, it reminds me of this part of this speech:

Should we compile a list of things no one told Sweet?
Off the top of my head:
How to use cloud storage sites like Dropbox.
Thunderbird
The office photocopier
What else?

The Koalas were very displeased about this cartoon. ... But do it to one of theirs-- or, you know, just draw a picture of it-- and they want you dead.

Sweet continues to assume that all of his critics are driven into a rabid fury by his antics.

I do hope his cellmates Rock and Bubba had fun playing with Marbles.

Ha ha, I hope the guy who hit Rupert Murdoch with a pie gets anally raped ; D

I think Sweet's insistence that all his critics are "progressive" or "liberal" comes from his need to believe that he is criticized just because he's too audacious.

I wonder how Sweet would account for the Farms' mockery of Ahuviya, a left-wing (or at least pseudo-left-wing) lolcow.

Considering that Ahuviya is a subject that relates in no way to Sweets or his role model Christian Weston Chandler, he doesn't care. I don't get the sense that he's that aware of the world that exists outside of his bubble.

CD Burners
How to get home from the hospital
How to dress and groom himself
 
How to get someone to fix the fucking hole in his fucking bedroom wall that is almost certainly the source of mold and rot affecting the structural integrity of the house as well as his health.
 
It's his elderly mother's house. So not only his endangering his own life, but his mother's as well. He should use some of that :tugboat: to fix it, but no one told him money could be used to hire repairmen.

Does he get a tugboat? I assumed he just collected cans and mooched off his mother.
 
Why doesn't he call a repairman? Stubbornness? Shame? Stupidity?

It's all three, isn't it?

He talked about being on the tug, but see, it's okay when he does it.

He also alludes to having no control over it, and for good reason. He's a rube that regularly buys into scams and conspiracies unapologetically and with no forethought whatsoever.

What happened with that? I'm guessing this was at the Herald, no one told him how to use it, and he caused a scene somehow.

Didn't Sweet fall for some kind of publishing scam or two? Sweet apparently does have a mindset that leaves him susceptible to believing in conspiracies - for example, the Herald and ASU.

Oh it's really very simple. You see, Sweetness:
  • Is stupid
  • Doesn't know/believe he's stupid
  • Believes everyone else is stupider than he is
It's a self-perpetuating cycle, because if everyone else really was stupider than you, the temptation would exist to stagnate and cease evolving, because why do so if the cost/benefit ratio of such an action is skewed so heavily? Alas, Sweetie has never been one to resist temptation, I'm afraid, and as a creature of impulse who finds thinking ahead and carefully planning actions such a chore, he's bound to squander even more money on stupid useless ventures that any sane person would avoid. Humility is highly underrated, my friends. :)

Basically he's Barb.

Yeah, he mentioned that he had some articles or something that he wanted to keep, but couldn't because no one showed him how to use the photocopier. Seriously? Most photocopiers are easy to use, and in the 90s, they wouldn't have all the bells and whistles they have today.

EDIT: I wonder why he didn't ASK someone to show him how to use it. Or had he alienated everyone at that point? Seems to me that knowing how to photocopy things would be kind of essential back in the 90s before we went mostly digital.
