This is a question No Self-Awareness

I had a boss who had no idea of his body odour problem, and everybody was too tactful to break it to him. Not so a visiting Rev Ian Paisley: "What the blazes is that smell? Is it you?" That sorted it. Stories of people blissfully unaware of their bad smells, bad manners and foghorn voices.

It might be a good idea to just leave him alone.
Or just occasionally drop a reference to him at the very most. Starting threads about him seems like bullying.

Shut up baldmonkey.
Or I'll get Piston to do a stand-up routine about you.
And give the orchestra umbrellas.

I'm not BM, I don't know Piston and I'm sure struggling musicians would appreciate free umbrellas on top of their fee.

It's not like anyone's threatening to beat him up, though. That could be considered bullying.

(I helped save b3ta! Dr Preference AjcuiVd289, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:25, closed)
Name-calling and making up stories about him in a group is clearly bullying.
One man getting angry and ranting against a group of people who insult him is harder to read as bullying, especially given that he has no power or influence.

but he is an absolute idiot, so it doesn't really matter

(I helped save b3ta! 4Q just lurking, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:43, closed)
Wrong. This is serious internet business.

(I helped save b3ta! brb welcome to my reed organ repair blog, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:48, closed)
leave me alone

(I helped save b3ta! 4Q just lurking, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:48, closed)
Okay.

(I helped save b3ta! brb welcome to my reed organ repair blog, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:49, closed)
Really? He could get this place shut down, you know.

(I helped save b3ta! drimble he'd been white, he'd been black, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:45, closed)
How?

(I helped save b3ta! brb welcome to my reed organ repair blog, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:49, closed)
He could duff up the servers with his gnarly manfists.

So could you, I'm sure.

(I helped save b3ta! brb welcome to my reed organ repair blog, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 21:09, closed)
I'm a lover not a fighter.
I'd probably just fuck it up the backplane.

Overheat it,
Clog it and bring it to a standstill. Chat, touch, finger, mount, fsck, umount, clean, rm, init S, self, fsck, clean, init 0
You filthy bugger.

Best cyber ever.

(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 21:44, closed)
Money and influence, maybe?
Who knows.
(I helped save b3ta! drimble he'd been white, he'd been black, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 20:56, closed)
I doubt he has more power or influence than the average b3tan.

By boring everyone to death with anecdotes about his pet shop.

(I helped save b3ta! 4Q just lurking, Fri 30 Nov 2012, 21:00, closed)
So what
If he has Monkeys and influence....

No no, you're missing the point entirely
The fact that they managed to get one of the most peaceable and likeable people I've ever met to threaten violence after they wound him up so much is a cause for celebration. I reckon they're right to gloat about it indefinitely.

HAHAHAHAHAH WTF?

(I helped save b3ta! stuj (^(^;;^)^) GO TEAM SPIDERS!(^(^;;^)^), Sat 1 Dec 2012, 1:08, closed)
Yup.
Violence is always the fault of the victim. It's like rape and short skirts. You bellend.
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sat 1 Dec 2012, 8:25, closed)

If you think there's been any violence - real or implied - directed towards any individual, you should probably report it to the relevant authorities. Unless you'd prefer to carry on being hilariously upset online, of course. Personally, I wouldn't take the internet so seriously. In my shed.

It's like a plague of bellends.
Form a fucking queue. I don't want to see all your bellend faces at once.
(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sat 1 Dec 2012, 19:17, closed)

Does this mean we can't be BFFs? Sad times. But please elaborate upon your fascinating theory that shouting the odds on the internet is somehow comparable to actual, honest-to-goodness rape.
(I helped save b3ta! Happy Phantom has been to Hastings, Brighton, and Eastbourne too, Sat 1 Dec 2012, 21:55, closed)
For a hilarious second there it almost sounded as if you believed you were worthy of an actual conversation. Hahaha.

(I helped save b3ta! Dr. Shambolic je suis charlie, Sun 2 Dec 2012, 8:55, closed)

Haha, yeah, lol, it's almost like you replied or something. Good job you didn't reply to tell me that it's not a conversation, because that would make you look pretty stupid. Haha. Lol.
