I prefer you as carlos

The original carlos. You know, the waste of time, impossible to read, one syllable, nonsensical, utterly stupid carlos, who showed up on this forum out of nowhere to post gibberish and throw insults at you. The carlos that you were the only who understood and "spoke his language". The carlos that even our resident clown, who is fluent in clownland language, expressed bewilderment on what that mug was talking about.

That carlos

The same one who at first thought what I had to say on here made sense, although he hadn't stepped foot on this forum before, but then just a matter of a few short days he was hurling insults my way, despite myself not acknowledging any of his posts. You know, the one that gave you the chance to shout "even carlos clued in"

That carlos

You know, the carlos who underwent a magical transformation in a matter of a handful of posts, going from someone who posted unreadable, predominantly monosyllabic incomprehensible rubbish, to someone who all of a sudden put sentences together and asked semi-intelligent questions. The carlos who stopped talking in tongues and started posting in english, and amazingly all of a sudden had an interest in money printing, inflation and interest rates of all things. Who knew.

That carlos

The same on who you were at arms with trading posts full of expletives and insults when he first showed he face on here, but virtually a few short hours later you were in a lovers embrace, happily "agreeing" and bothering to write short novellas answering his questions with nary a bad word to be found

That carlos

You know, the carlos who put up those pre-fabricated questions to give you the chance to put up those pre-fabricated answers in a poorly disguised effort to show that you are not all fluff and no substance and gain some respect on here

That carlos

Yes, I definitely prefer you as carlos, the original carlos, the dumb as a bucket of nails carlos, that carlos. Because by the time I'm done with you here, the carlos persona that you are posting under will sound intelligent by comparison and certainly a lot less pathetic.

You know they have stages in the cycle of grieving. Do they have stages in the cycle of meltdowns and what stage are you at when you start thinking different people are one and the same?

The really funny thing is that when carlos first came on and he thought you were the daddy he accused everybody else on the forum of being me because they were giving it you. He couldn't understand why so many people would think you were a knob. Now he knows.

Wait a minute. Are you sure you aren't carlos? No hang on. You are Mr Ben. ExcitedExcitedExcitedExcited Can I have a go at that pipe when you've finished with it?

Report Menelaus July 12, 2012 12:23 PM BST
Here's where you were wrong:
1. You lost your patience. I was suspicious of carlos since day one. The tiiming of his appearnce, where he knew exactly where to find you although you're not a regular here, the gibberish to hide behind were all red flags. Therefore, I ignored his drivel although acknowledging his posts insulting you would have been beneficial to me. I totally ignored him. You got frustrated and changed the "bad cop, good cop" routine a lot sooner than you should have.
2. The passive and active use, the stylistic use of the word "question" and what it was trying to accomplish is identical in your posts and his. Well, your posts basically. You can hide behind the gibberish, but you can't hide how you think.
3. The personality revealed in your comical "why printing doesn't lead to inflation" fable is identical, I don't mean very close, I mean identical to most of carlos's posts. The guy asking the question had an identical personality to the guy asking it. Can I bet on that probability?

Your pathetic attempt to "bring in reinforcements" and deceive would probably work on most clueless mugs as evidenced by other posts on here. You probably forgot in your haste to "score points" that I started in the mind manipulation business and then economics, not the other way around. Retired teachers don't know that, the guys who work out of Court 4, Orange Zone, at Langley VA do.

My suggestion is that you do what you did when I first came here. You went outwith to the politics forum. So do the same thing again and go to the boxing forum. It also doesn't have a lot of traffic so you will probably only need to go back a few pages to see me and carlos going at it like two ferrets in a sack.

Then come back and let me know what you think then.

Irregardles of whether posters are or are not using different chatnames in their efforts to expose the rantings and ravings of Menelaus as being neither novel nor original, I think the real point is that they are succeeding slowly but surely.
His posted views are simply regurgitations of time worn criticisms of the fiat money system.
There is a loud and vociferous camp of detractors of this system, and they simply continue to update their opinions to reflect current times. At the moment they're just throwing the new type of credit derivatives into the mix, and once again are concluding that this makes everything different to all times past.
You either are in their camp or you are not.
If you are, then you will always be investing as if there is not going to be any tomorrow.
If you are not, then you will be investing for the next boom whenever there is a crash, and for the next crash whenever there is a boom.
I'm in the camp opposing Menelaus and his prophets of doom, simply because it's the only positive way I can personally see how to live my life and enjoy the moment.
I may come unstuck, who knows, but I don't go to bed every night worrying about it all, as it would seem Menelaus does. I take sensible protective precautions like everybody tries to, but that's all.
Btw does anybody else think, like me, that Menelaus is actually showing serious, worrying signs on here of becoming totally mentally unhinged.

You know the really serious implications of Menelaus' obvious seriously unbalanced approach to apparently everything that doesn't quite fit into his little cubbyhole of intellectualism, is that he apparently holds down quite a senior executive position in a " leading" player in the City.

A small word of advice to all on here.
You will note that I essentially always talk over Menelaus and not to him.
I find that in talking about him in the 3rd person helps enormously in taking his posts as merely personal points of views, being expressed by just one of many so-called pundits in the financial sector.
He's a good read if taken in conjunction with all other equally valid points of view, accessible in all areas of the media.
He's neither totally right nor totally wrong.
Just another person trying to find his way through a maze of contradicting facts and figures.
I just wish he would tone down the I'm God factor a bit.

I have at least 7 sparing sessions of benn vs henry Wharton and benn v lou gent.

Benn couldn't even win a round  v henry Wharton and had wars with lou gent. I'll bring that to the table.

There is noway in the world benn could have outpointed henry Wharton if u watch the sparring. And it wasn't a unfit benn, they were weeks and Days before some of his early fights. Time and dates on videos.
carlos monzon     06 Dec 11 19:33  
U think it's good that the ref allowed him to hit him in the back of the head all night.

U think it's ok that benn was given a long time to recover, unfairly.

U think it's ok that the guys in this state, worrying about pennies.

U think it's ok.   Look at the direll fight, froch hit direll with 7or 8 punches in the back of the head and no1 cared. It's f00kin dangerous u t wat, regardless of who u want to win.

Of course direll was holding and running a bit too much for my liking but u CANNOT allow punching in the back of the head. Deduct points, disq direll, but do not alow punches to the back of the head.

Eeternaloptimist     07 Dec 11 02:23  
Well you asked for it and you are going to get it. Again:

How on earth can a man who is out on his feet in aba final and a number of his early fights suddenly come up with endless stamina.

Two points immediately spring to mind. A generic one and one specifically relating to Benn. The first question is like asking how can someone run a marathon in three hours and then a year later run it half an hour quicker. He must be on something right? WRONG. It is called training. Something which people can do to address deficiencies in most areas.

Specifically relating to Benn he started his pro career as an out and out banger. He wanted to take your head off with every single shot and with most of his opponents it worked and he simply didn't need to build his stamina up. Then he ran into Watson and that fight showed him that he couldn't simply march through people who were at or near world class. It was no coincidence that in his very next fight he reined it back to make sure he got the rounds under his belt and this was the first time he had even been longer than 7 rounds as he went 10 rounds. But the bottom line is that when Benn went to war he remained suspect in the stamina department. Exhaustion finished him off in the first Eubank fight and had McClellan not likely been suffering with cerebral bleeding he would probably also have finished off the exhausted Benn in round 8.

So that is 1 down.
Eeternaloptimist     07 Dec 11 02:55  
Look at Benns eyes against mcellen. That wasn't normal for him. The guy became superhuman that night. Wen mcellen hits u, u stay hit.

The man was possessed that night, his chin was unreal, his stamina was excellent and the man was relentless.

Y on earth was he knocked out with a jab vs Watson. And it was only the 6th. Strange heyyyyy.

Lets start with the last one first here and I'll start with a simple question. If you push a man to his very limit and he is completely exhausted and then you hit him with the same force as you would if he was fresh which punch would be more likely to trouble him? The fact is that Benn thought that if he hit Watson hard enough he would go and when that didn't happen he just kept on doing it. Watson had a simple but effective game plan. He help an open glove up over his face so that Benn's punches were cushioned and he waited for Benn to punch himself out. Is that a term you are familiar with? I wonder? Such a man is then very vulnerable to any punch. You can push such a man over.

Benn's chin wasn't unreal that night. McClellan knocked the motherfrucker through the ropes and when he got back up after being given a 20 count he looked like he might limbo dance. What happened that night is very similar to what happened to Benn against Watson. Benn was facing a man who in the previous few years had carried all before him. In four years and numerous bouts he had fought a total of 19 rounds. The furthest he had been in that time was 5 rounds. He was smoking mothefruckers in their boots and that is what he was going to do to Benn. The point is though that he had been doing it at middleweight, this was his first fight at super middle and such was his disdain for Benn's strength as a fighter who had been fighting at 168 for years that McClellan came in at 165. There was never any evidence that G Man could or would do it at the higher weight until he actually did it. Look at how McClellan reacted when the ref allowed the fight to continue. From being someone who pre fight wanted to kill his man he was now imploring the ref to stop the fight because he had already put so much effort into his assault and the tank was running low.

The other things were characteristics which Benn often displayed. He was always relentless. As I have shown sometimes too much so. It wasn't a case of being possessed. He was all but down and out in the first round and McClellan simply underestimated Benn, virtually punched himself out, missed a lot and wasn't prepared for a long fight. Benn's comment post fight is very pertinent, "they brought him over here to beat me up". A proud man was fuelled by raw anger at the effrontery of people dismissing him so easily and when he actually got through the sticky patch he was always going to give it his all. Which didn't stop him being exhausted and nearly out in round 8.
Eeternaloptimist     07 Dec 11 03:06  
I mean look at the interview straight after the fight. He wanted to have a go at anybody, even harry who helped him get through the ropes.

How on earth can u have so much agression in u after uv had a fight like that. Ok the adrellenian is pumping whilst the fight is going on. But 10 minutes later his still going crazy.

Guy fought with 2 broken hands v doug dwit as well.

This guy was on flo jo drugs

I don't recall Flo Jo ever mugging the track side interviewer. Benn was overtaken by the moment. He had come through a life or death struggle in which nearly everybody had written him off and he had thousands of people screaming his name and he was buzzing. Different people react differently. Ali beat Frazier in Manilla and nearly fell asleep in his soup at the post fight banquet in his honour. The man who was stopped boogied the night away regaling a crowd ssinging with his band.

Lets look at this using a process of logic. We all agree that steroids are obviously a problem in the sport. What you are suggesting is that they turned Benn into a homicidal freak who would have carried on fighting all night and chasing the security guards out of the arena. Well okay. If that is the case then clearly this would be the case for all those other guys on the juice. They would be eating microphones and dry humping the legs of the interviewers left, right and centre. Generally that doesn't happen. The fact that it was an isolated incident with Benn suggests that it is either something peculiar to the man or to the occasion and not the roids.

Y did he put this down to hypnosis. Y hasn't any other fighter since put so much emphasis on it.

I think he ran 9.54.

I told him he should get into the blocks and become a sprinter but he said he needed glenn cately instead of the blocks so he could maximise his sprinting  ability.

All in attendance thought he was on roids.

Surely they didn't just deduce that or pull it out of their a$$. Then again, perhaps they did

If you said the clueless mugs who went from being more interested in upper cuts, jabs, crosses and hooks, and having never posted on here before, to the clueless mugs who are now all of a sudden more interested in interest rates, quantitative easing, money supply, money velocity and inflation you'd be right. And they showed up on here at the same time. And the more they post, the more the gibberish vanishes, and the use of english and the questions asked are remarkably the same (except since I pointed it out, it seems carlos went back to ape sh1t crazy again).

What an amazing coincidence. Where can I lay those odds?

No one said you didn't co-exist on the forum for the intellectually challenged…..eeeer…..sorry, I meant the boxing forum.

No one said you weren't pulling the same sh1t over there. No one said the charade didn't include "ding dongs" on the boxing forum to complete the act.

The pattern you followed was identical when you first both appeared on here, only to become bosom buddies a handful of posts later.

What I am saying is that you tried to pull this pathetic rubbish on this forum and got called on it.

An honest answer carlos?

The short answer is I like debating, I have a talent for it and I don't like losing. It doesn't mean I'm right though.

The longer answer is that I come from the bottom but genuinely did academically well when I decided I wanted to take my shot at the title. I didn't bullshiit you when I said I was a non practising barrister but I come from humble origins. So I have a foot in both camps. I'm like Hagler: I can box to beat the banger and I can bang to beat the boxer. I'm also pretty honest and gracious enough to concede a point in a debate where I think it is fair. The reason why I will always beat someone like Melly in a debate is my adaptability. He has dug his trench and he will live or die there. Consequently, he will keep eating it if he has told you it is caviar even if he later finds the tin that it came out of and it says dog food.

Melly

One lacuna in your theory. My natural home is the politics forum. Carlos has posted a couple of times on there but hardly ever. Carlos' forum is boxing and I occasionally post there.

On a warm summer's eve
On a train bound for nowhere
I met up with the gambler
We were both too tired to sleep
So we took turns a-starin'
Out the window at the darkness
The boredom overtook us, and he began to speak

He said, "Son, I've made my life
Out of readin' people's faces
Knowin' what the cards were
By the way they held their eyes
So if you don't mind my sayin'
I can see you're out of aces
For a taste of your whiskey
I'll give you some advice"

So I handed him my bottle
And he drank down my last swallow
Then he bummed a cigarette
And asked me for a light
And the night got deathly quiet
And his faced lost all expression
He said, "If you're gonna play the game, boy
You gotta learn to play it right

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
Know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

Now every gambler knows the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep"

So when he finished speakin'
He turned back for the window
Crushed out his cigarette
And faded off to sleep then somewhere in the darkness
The gambler he broke even,
but in his final words
I found an ace that I could keep

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

You've got to know when to hold 'em
(When to hold 'em)
Know when to fold 'em
(When to fold 'em)
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done

You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done
