The following are all pretentious nerds.

Linux users
Pipe Smokers
Real Ale Drinkers
Doctor Who fans

They are in fact all the same people.

A complete bunch of cretinous morons, who have no idea of the real
world, outside of the academic suroundings they exist in.

I know, I know.......don't feed the trolls, but in this case, gotta
submit that....

Never scored higher than low 80s on any IQ test....ever (& am
63).Understanding technology past a few basic moves, never. Might
qualify as a pipesmoker and like India Pale Ales, but never even heard
of Dr.Who (Western Swang's my music thang), and shudder to think of the
consequences if my computer was with Linux.

Don't stereotype folks.

Ed Duncan, Batavia, NY

I am intrigued by the reference here to Dr Who.
Dr Who was a cult Sci Fi television soap
opera which was shown on British
television some years ago. It ran for a very long
time with different actors playing Dr Who. Then it
died as did so many things from the 60's and 70's.
However, it was resurrected last week and a new
series started to much acclaim. I have yet
to look at my recording of the programme, so I cannot comment.
I am amazed that this programme has even
been heard of by this troll let alone that he/she should
equate it with pipe smoking.  However, if my memory
serves me correctly one of the Dr Who's did smoke
a pipe. Wonders never cease.

Now many, many years ago, when I was twenty-three,
I was married to a widow who was pretty as could be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red.
My father fell in love with her, and soon they, too, were wed.

This made my dad my son-in-law and changed my very life,
My daughter was my mother, cause she was my father's wife.
To complicate the matter, even though it brought me joy,
I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy.

My little baby then became a brother-in-law to Dad,
And so became my uncle, though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle, then that also made him brother
Of the widow's grown-up daughter, who, of course, was my stepmother.

Father's wife then had a son who kept him on the run,
And he became my grandchild, for he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother, and it makes me blue,
Because, although she is my wife, she's my grandmother, too.

Now if my wife is my grandmother, then I'm her grandchild,
And everytime I think of it, it nearly drives me wild,
For now I have become the strangest case you ever saw
As husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa!

Happy smoking all.

Well, I score three out of four.

Can anyone beat that?

I'm 2 out of 4. I'd quite like
to be thought of as academic, but
is 2 out of 4 enough? I went to
skool - honest!

Bishop

The first doctor in the second episode smoked a pipe.  Interestingly
enough he stepped outside of the tardis to do it.  He was then
acccosted by a cave man and hasn't smoked since.  (Although the fourth
doctor did hold a hookah.)

Perhaps the experience traumatized him out of the addiction,

Nope, I only fit in half of one category - I'm not even an exclusive

that. :o)

Can you be a cretinous moron and pretentious? Surely a cretinous moron 
doesn't have the capacity for pretentiousness.

A cretinous moron is probably a tautology though. Not to be confused
with an oxymoron BTW.

You're 63 and you've never heard of doctor who?
I thought everyone in the developed world was familiar with the daleks.

I think you need to read the definition of soap opera here.
It's never been a soap.

As far as Continental Europe goes, including some underdeveloped

apart from some science fiction buffs, and they're a minority in the SF

As an ale drinker, i can safely say that:
a) I'm not a Dr.Who fan,
b) I have never smoked a pipe
c) Linux?! Never touched the stuff...

And finally dunno how anyone of the following (Linux users, Pipe Smokers, 
Real Ale Drinkers, Doctor Who fans) could be diagnosed as having a 
developmental problem caused by hypothyroidism from birth, based simply on 
their hobbies (just in case you ain't got a fucking clue what a cretin 
actually is, which i doubt you do you fuck wit)

I like beer,
