Anyone with a brain would call a cab or get a bus if their ride didn't show up. Hanging out for 8 freaking hours, and not even asking someone if you can use a phone, is fucking stupid. Only an absolute idiot or a special needs person would react the way he did.
 
Fine, Sweets, you win. I'm part of the illuminati. I've purposely been feeding you lies and working with the global college newspaper cabal to keep you down. With your bad boy ways and keen awareness, you were quite the fly in our ointment. Something had to be done. But we've been bested. You've cracked our liberal, progressive code and further conspiracies are unnecessary. I tip my hat to you, sir.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but in Sweet's defense, if he lives in a bumfuck rural area there might not be buses or cabs, the latter of which tend to be expensive anyway. He's still a dope for not taking any initiative to ask to use a phone and call someone to pick him up, but his options for transportation were probably limited.
 
I can also now admit that we possess a time machine and gave SNL your original (DO NOT STEAL) work and that's why they have such uncanny similarities. See, you didn't plagiarize SNL, they plagiarized you!
 
How the hell could they fake the sketch? Did they go back in time and find Horatio Sanz when he was still fat? If nothing else comedy is so specific that if it were edited it would be obviously fake. Unless you're going for an alt-comedy type deal (which SNL avoids for the most part) this isn't possible.
Yeah this is the part of that whole story that never held water with me: anyone who wasn't a complete idiot could just, I don't know, CALL THEM? I mean the sketch is presumably on their website, right? It's on their official Youtube channel? This isn't something you can fake, nor is it something SNL just conveniently forgot about, and so that means one of two things is happening: either Saturday Night Live, the long-running critically acclaimed sketch comedy show, is conspiring against Jon Thumb together with ASU, or he's an idiot.

Obviously we need to boycott SNL IMMEDIATELY!!!!!!

edit: lol what @Chan the Wizard said

Hey, stop! You're blowing my time traveling mission! I must destroy Iconoclast's life or else, he will start the New American Civil War. Since you can't keep your mouth shut, say goodbye to your girlfriend and college perks!
 
So, if his newest addition to the hospital story is to be believed (that he also wandered around the parking lot and outside areas of the building), this just raises a new question. Why didn't he just walk his fat ass home? If the hospital was in the next town over or something I could understand writing off this idea, but really, over the course of eight hours it never occurred to him to pull himself up by the bootstraps like a good conservative and just walk?

Also, it's hilarious that he calls victim blaming a liberal thing. Last I checked it was typically conservative lawmakers that implied rape victims were asking for it, or that low-level employees are at fault for not being able to advance in the broken corporate system, or that it's the fault of minorities themselves that they can't improve their lot in life despite the mountains of evidence of institutionalized racism and oppression...

Of course, everything I just said makes me a filthy liberal.

RIP Chan the Wizard's phone sex and buffet privileges.

He himself implied that a sexual harassment victim "had it coming" in an earlier post! Maybe since it was in a different topic, Sweets didn't expect anyone to remember. It's not like he is the first person with autism to have trouble remembering details.
 
We think we've heard this song before said:
No, that was a lie. It has never been conclusively proven the sketch even exists.

Refuse all you want, but that doesn't make it true in the slightest. Can definitely smell the creationist on you with that statement.

The melody is different but we hear the drums of durrr said:
Oh, sure, you found a video link-- 18 years after the fact, on a website, easily able to be faked. Where was it when I asked to see it back in 1997?

Probably with the people that kicked you off the staff. Especially since back then you admitted to doing it. I'm fairly certain you know this, so you're trying to make it physically impossible for people to prove you wrong. Mainly because that would completely fuck up 20 years of rationalization.

And so it seems our mission is the same said:
It was never entered into evidence, and in fact, great pains were taken by the editorial staff to cover it up. Why? What were they hiding?

Nothing, since you're the one making up the conspiracy, mainly to take the blame away from you, a person who clearly and readily plagiarizes other peoples intellectual property since you have no fucking clue what copyright is.

What only leads to sperging begins as just inane said:
I could say I was joking, you know, like you do whenever you're caught saying something fabulously stupid and ugly... but the fact it, most writing really is just taking old ideas and presenting them in a different way.

The difference here is that you don't just take those concepts; you basically take the whole damn idea and then some. Evidence includes ALF in this one, no matter how hard you try and deny it. Really, you're slightly less creative than Mr. Chandler, since Chandler had some original stories outside of his own personal experiences in the comic. I've only ever seen the same thing come from you; over and over again.

History Repeating said:
Also, it's noted that Demi-Jon's crimes are often inspired by comics and TV shows, so a loud, obnoxious girlfriend named Harley (who is a punk/biker chick, not a jester), or lieutenants who look like Huggy Bear or Mr T. knockoffs wouldn't really be out of the question for him.

So, rip offs that at best barely skirt around copyright. I think I begin to understand why you got kicked off the paper if this is your understanding of it.

Who do they call when fucktards be derping? said:
And of course, you finish with the tired "everyone is lying to you" blah-blah, coupled with "only your enemies are really telling you the truth" ploy. And its's all well and good to be able to leave a hospital seconds after your appointment, HMO-whatever... but when your ride isn't sitting out there waiting for you as promised-- well, you're kind of stuck, aren't you?

Not really. Depending on the situation, I'd probably search for any person in the hospital to find where the phone is. Then I'd either call for transportation services, or tell the missus that I'm currently kind of stuck. Alternatively, if the hospital is less than ten miles away from the house, I'd have walked. I've walked half that distance because I wanted to; I'm pretty sure I'd be willing to go double if I was stuck with no way out.

History Repeating said:
Of course, what can I expect, you're so stupid you missed the whole point of the story anyway. I couldn't get home that day because someone else failed to follow through.

The wording here describes everything that a person needs to know about you: that you are unwilling to take some responsibility, and that you cannot even begin to try and get back control of your life.

Who do we call when our brains are hemorrhaging? said:
"Around the hospital" includes the parking lot as well, not just inside the building. But I suppose you've never gotten lost, huh? Either of you? Plus I spent some of that time sitting in the waiting room, and no one showed up to assist me.

And you didn't bother to just go up and ask? I mean, I have some quirks about asking people (I feel weird outright stating it), but if I was stuck there (about 1/2 an hour or so would be my limit of bullshit), I'd have walked up to the nearest person and asked for a phone. Mainly because no matter how small the clinic, it is always staffed with SOMEONE.

*Guitar Solo* said:
But no, not one bad word against the staff for their uncaring or incompetence-- it's all on me and some magic phantom brain illness. Classic "blame the victim" progressive liberal logic. So screw you.

Mainly because you never brought up anything they did for being uncaring, and there's also the matter of not being able to find a phone in a hospital. Even if it's a tiny little clinic is Bumfumpkinville, it should have a phone at all times.

I actually thought that by exposing the truth about people like themin my writing, I could win good right-thinking folks over. I'd sell a few short stories (with the names changed to avoid legal action), build up a base of followers, and be back at school in a year or two with all flags lifted and the charges dropped and forgotten. But all I ever got for my work was scorn, mockery, and even threats, and meantime the rejection letters only piled up. A year passed, then two, three, five. Now it's ten years gone, my reputation is still in the pooper, and I'm still not allowed on campus. Why? Because I underestimated the size of the leftist machine.

He starts off so well. You read "I actually thought that..." and you think he's figured it out! He knows now that his plan was ridiculous! OK, most people would have thought through the whole "become the head of a local citizen's movement whose goals are all about me, through the medium of writing revenge fic about people who made me butthurt in college" plan and not attempted it. Still, better late than never. Surely he'll have been corrected by a dose of reality.

"I underestimated the size of the leftist machine."

Oh.

Sweet, the reason that you're not some hybrid of Rush Limbaugh and Steven King, and you haven't been swept back into the hallowed halls of ASU on the shoulders of a Right-Thinking Persons' Brigade isn't because of "the size of the leftist machine".

It's because your means for getting people on your side - your books and comics - don't interest people. At all. They may not be utterly terrible, but they're terribly boring. Combined with the low production values and your idiosyncratic approach to marketing, there's no wonder that Tiresias isn't flying off the shelves.

Essentially, you are writing for a target audience of one: yourself. People just don't care. Entertainment is a supersaturated market, and print media is a dying industry, and racism and misogyny are on their way out of polite society. Your books and comics are your equivalent of Christian Chandler's attraction signs.

You aren't getting back into ASU - this or any other way.

Wow, good job on getting John Cleese and Michael Palin for that sketch, dude. You must have some sway.

Can I borrow that Time Machine? I need to jam some pennies into Sweet's door in 1997.

I'll give it to you when I'm done partying with his bro at the bar while he's waiting at the hospital.

Good mother of mercy! I just read that page, and it's the SAME shit as today. Over and over again. Liberals are bad because The Herald my ex my brother Dale.

Well, I know for certain you're not reading this at ASU.
