G+_Urvin Kirindongo Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Dvorak is back on TWiT today. So if you like his brand of talking a lot yet contributing nothing insightful, I'm sure there will be plenty to enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Steve Adams Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 You appear to lack the irony gene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gordon Smith Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 That's probably because there is no gene for irony expression. It is merely an emergent property of the mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Steve Adams Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 ... & the self-awareness gene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gordon Smith Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Instead of speaking in poorly-imagined riddles about genes that don't exist (self awareness is another emergent property of the human mind) could you just say what you actually mean?

G+_Steve Adams Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 You did the exact thing (talking with no insight) you acused Dvorak of doing & inflicted on the TWIT audience here. That you missed the irony inspired my first comment. That despite it being pointed out (irony) you still missed it inspired my second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gordon Smith Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 That's an entirely defective comparison. False equivalence. I didn't miss the irony, I dispute the quality of your comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_Michael Williams Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 This is the funniest thing I've seen all day. Props to Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Gordon Smith Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 JCDs persistent negativity on any topic and sweeping dismissals might be entertaining in their delivery, and the reactions that they cause but this isn't WWE or Jerry Springer... It's supposed to be reasoned discussion of tech stories between people who have at least bothered to learn about the topics under discussion before passing judgement.

G+_Steve Adams Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 re: "It's supposed to be reasoned discussion of tech stories" Who set your expectations that way Gordon Smith ? I think you may be out of touch. The character of a weekly TWIT show is quite changeable depending on the news and the participants. For me, that's part of the appeal. Sometimes it's better than others.. but in general it's good value and worth a listen/watch. You (and I, ,and all) are allowed to like/dislike guests and their points of view.. but don't confuse your tastes & assumptions with "how it is supposed to be". Once you let that go... you'll be free to enjoy it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
