Barry's behavior on FFL is the paradigm: Ongoing, relentless, incessant verbal abuse, from the time I first encountered him around 1995 on alt.m.t to this day. (And obviously not just of me, although I've been his prime target.)

From this perspective, what falls into this category? One incident of verbal abuse? Or many instances of repeating that incident? As well as many instances of other verbal attacks? It's not rocket science.

Once you've viciously attacked someone in a post headed "SHUT THE FUCK UP," you've pretty much announced that you've permanently given up your last shred of credibility as a critic of bullies. And BTW, I never said what Barry quotes me as saying below. He made that up out of whole cloth. That's what losers have to do when they don't have a case. Doesn't make anyone else a winner; it only confirms that one is a loser. Plus, just a reminder: The "Mean Girls Club" doesn't exist except in Barry's fantasies about his critics. Oh, and one last thing: Yesterday Richard cited an alt.m.t post of Barry's from 2004. If you read the discussion surrounding that post, you'll find a bunch of people making the exact same criticisms of Barry that are made here. Excerpt: "One doesn't have to be a rocket scientist to recognize you as the 'know it all' egotist when you get criticized. You're a classic example; far from anything akin to what anyone would consider a person of spiritual integrity, in either the absolute or relative sense. Your blatantly obvious defensive ego trip betrays any pretense you might have in that regard. I doubt however, that your ego will allow your intellect to even consider the possibility."
