Anyone check out any of his other blogs? Chock full of cray. What a sad, lonely existence this one must have.

I started reading then my delicious morning coffee started tasting bitter and closed the file. That diatribe I assume was sitting in holding somewhere and continually added to till the right moment to release it.
But if it was all done last night what a sad, sad way to spend a Saturday night.

Many of the other blogs I opened were all him criticizing....well, whatever.Maybe there isn't enough oxygen in the basement.

It is interesting to see someone not know how the site functions, cross-post the same argument across multiple unrelated threads (so that people in the James Barbour thread had no idea why American Sniper was being discussed, etc.), dismiss anyone who contradicts him, but then anoint himself with the remedy to fix things.
There are tons of completely inept people out there clinging to various online social venues with their toxicity in a desperate attempt to make themselves matter. I've seen some in other venues, but this was pretty hilarious on a Broadway board.
I'm not going to bother poking that thing, but did I win any prizes? I'm still new, but a Japanese gilded poop trophy would be cool. :) (And has he really trolled these forums before? Wow.)
I just wonder why J_Jammer chose all my interactions with Sutton Ross to use an my example. It leads me to believe there has to be some kind of connection with the two posters.
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”
~ Muhammad Ali
I don't think those people like anyone online, probably also because their behavior pushes away everyone "IRL" as well. They're little lumps of resentment.
He conveniently neglects to mention he was antagonizing people and derailing conversation across several threads. He's too focused on calling everyone boring and intolerant in different ways.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
In a strange way the response to the diatribe from an unhinged contributor[where is he now and why not responding-is he just sitting back laughing?], has bought the BWW community together in solidarity in mutual support of each other.
Even those who just read here must feel outrage for those mentioned for no matter how much we might verbally fight, bitch, snall and snark, laugh and weep through this medium, which I am realitively a novice, we are here primarilary for our love of theatre as well as many varied and interesting side issues to discuss.
I am proud to be able to spend some time each day with all of you[with one exception] and as I recognise a familiar avatar I wonder 'how will they respond?'-it's like saying hello to a friend each day.
Don't know why this has made me emotional but all this bitterness is just time wasted when really life gives us so little time. SweetLips..x
Then thn I find so fascinating about this, is that we know exactly who the Jammer is. He doesn't hide who he actually is. We could all group conference call him if we want to. Maybe that's what we should do.
He's honestly not worth it. He'll move on to some other random place and undoubtedly take issue with everyone there, too, and then blog about it. Just skimming any of the various sites and accounts he's kept will back that up.
"...everyone finally shut up, and the audience could enjoy the beginning of the Anatevka Pogram in peace."
What's so crazy is that before we could place him, he fit the mold on any number of the myriad mustache-twirling BWW villains we've had over the years. I don't know if it's reassuring or confounding that they all more or less follow the same script.
Since he is still watching and commenting about this thread on Twitter, I'm sort of done talking about him. The less we give him to cling to here, the more he'll find some other forum to infect/save elsewhere.
I find it hilarious that none of his followers are talking to him about it though. Goes to show that nobody cares.
