Navidson

Is anyone here familiar with the book House of Leaves, the debut novel by the American author Mark Z. Danielewski? No? Really? It was a best-seller and everything! Hmmph. So I guess any jokes I make about Metafilter's latest spammer Navidson being named after The Navidson Record would be wasted on you, huh? Fine. Let's just look at Navidson's four throwaway comments, then. The first one is a funny one... but more on that after these 'messages.'

"Nowadays you can even make your own cloud and use it as advertising."
(from the Don't hang around 'cause two's a crowd FPP)

"Amazing! Much more awesome than SmrtrChild. Real awesomeness though? Is when you get two robots to chat with each other."
(from the DR. SBAITSO WAS MY ONLY FRIEND. FPP)

"Found the full bot-to-bot chat. Sort of beautiful."
(also from the DR. SBAITSO WAS MY ONLY FRIEND. FPP)

"Thanks to anti-gay marriage actions like this, discrimination is still alive and well."
(from the Bible gets sued FPP)

Remember how I said that the first comment was funny? You'll notice that all of Navidson's comments had a hyperlink, except the first. That's because I removed it. Why? Because the link in his very first comment was a link to his crappy website! The same website he would later spam Metafilter with in a terrible FPP! Isn't that hilarious? No? Really?

Figures. I shouldn't have expected any less from a bunch of people who never read House of Leaves. Frankly I'm glad that cortex banned this guy. Without Navidson we never would have had this conversation, I'd never have known you were all a bunch of humourless philistines, and everything would have been a lot better right now!

Get bent, Navidson!

OK mmkaos, the jig is up. We know who you really are. There's no denying it. You're Conrad Sigfried, Vice President of KAOS, aren't you? A-ha! Thought so! Only Sigfried would stoop so low as to spam Metafilter after just three throwaway comments. I'd tell you to shush but as I understand it, you don't shush at KAOS. What were his three throwaway comments, then? Would you believe...

"Not sure if anyone can answer this question, but why are the prices always moving around from day to day. One day its $3.85 and then literally the next day, the same gas station has the same gas for $.15 more. How does this happen? The gas is already in the ground! Can someone answer that?"
(from the The fix is in FPP)

"Maybe then they'll actually brew a beer worth drinking."
(from the Cette bud n'est pas pour vous FPP)

"Love Free anything....might have to check it out!"
(from the Another Reason You Wish You Were David Byrne FPP)

mmkaos, would you believe that this building is surrounded by 50 CONTROL agents? Would you believe 40 CONTROL agents? How about an angry boy scout? Girl scout? How about jessamyn weilding The Banhammer? Ah well. If only mmkaos had used his or her posting powers for goodness and niceness instead of evil spamming, the account wouldn't have been deleted.
