英汉对照：老马为何受欢迎
芦笛
刚才看到九姐的帖子，再次显示他典型的作派：我质疑老马的智力，就是侮辱他的饭。可惜，九姐忘了，他也在侮辱我的饭，因为他说我混下点名声完全是靠高产，而且那高产还是不断重复说过的话。
您不觉得这也是对我的饭的侮辱么？难道你真的相信，他们喜欢某种东西，不过是因为那话语数量庞大而且重复？对不起，您这是在侮辱一个更大的族群，因为就连老马自己都承认我的饭比他的多。此外，您能否给出证据来支持你的指控，让大家看看我是怎么罗嗦重复的，行不行？
九姐，你该用事实而不是用共党的“统战”来驳斥我。不过我又怎能指望你知道这起码的文明规矩呢？
其实，老马才是最喜欢重复唠叨的同志。例如他关于抗战中方死亡人数的估计，就起码重复了7、8遍。如果不是我犀利地戳穿了他的“论证”并无情嘲笑之，只怕到今天他还要在重复他那伟大发现呢。
最近老马更是突然爱上了所谓“文艺复兴”一语，在几乎每篇近作中都要无耻吹嘘他的所谓“后文艺复兴时代思维方式”。他这么作，不过是因为我在“中国需要屁股上的疼”中指出自文艺复兴时代以来，追求真实而不是道德成了西方文明传统。
请问这些是不是事实，九姐？
现在让我们来审视一下我的话：
“简单说来，老马以其难以置信的愚蠢让读者目瞪口呆，而我则是用最难堪的真话震撼读者，诸如告诉他们中国人不但是一个愚昧的民族，而且那愚昧还是出类拔萃的。”
据我所知，老马曾两此震惊全网，一次以他的“强奸做爱”论，另一次则是以所谓“六四网上法庭”，每次他都用无从置信的愚蠢使公众目瞪口呆。
那“强奸作爱”论就不必提了。在那第二次哗众取宠中，他说出来的蠢话之多，无论是我还是别人都记不胜记。一言以蔽之，他把自己整个弄成了个笑柄，让“大家论坛”的网友着实开心了一番。光举一例就够了：
“干未经法律指明可行的事即为犯法。”
我至今犹记得张三一言的反驳：
“法律没有批准你呼吸，那你呼吸也就是犯法？”
你倒是说说，这是不是白痴话语，可爱的九姐？
那么，为何老马的文字会受人喜爱？原因很简单：因为它们非常搞笑！
我曾在<传统文学的雅与俗>中把老马的文字比为薛蟠的“一根XX往里戳”。看够了鲍鱼、带鱼那些“雅作”的读者骤见薛大爷那粗俗话语，自然会喜欢上它。同理，听够了官方或非官方宣传的人看到老马那些胡说八道，自然会因为其怪诞、荒唐、爆笑而喜欢上它们。
这就是我和老马的又一个区别：我启发读者并打开他们的视野(愚不可教者当然除外)，而老马则使他们觉得震骇与滑稽。不管他们怎么说，内心深处，大家都把他当成了薛大爷。只有他师兄拿他当回事，可这小子还抱怨我对他不够尊重。他的愚蠢当真是无人能敌，唉！

Why are Lao Ma's pieces liked? - 2003-3-10 06:38 (107 reads)
I have just read Jiu Jie's remarks. Once again, his approach is typical: I am insulting Ma's fans because I have questioned Lao Ma's intelligence. Unfortunately, my little sis has forgotten that he is insulting my fans just as well, as he claims that I have earned my fame by sheer productivity. Moreover, my high productivity results from repetition.
Don't you think this is also an insult to my fans? Do you really believe they like something, simply because of the sheer amounts of words or worse still, repetition of words? Even Lao Ma admits that I have more fans than he does. I am afraid that you are insulting a much greater mass, dear sis. Besides, can you substantiate your accusation and show the audience how I repeated myself, please?
You should have used facts, rather than the commies' tactic of "united front", to refute me, dear Sis. But how could I expect you to be otherwise? It is simply impossible for you to learn the least decency. I have been aware of this all along.
Actually, Lao Ma is the man who is most fond of repeating himself. For example, he repeated his estimate on the Chinese casualty in at least 7-8 articles. Had it not been for my mockery, he might well have been repeating his great discovery even until today.
Furthermore, recently, Lao Ma has suddenly fallen in love with the phrase "Renaissance". He has been bragging repeatedly about his "post-Renaissance way of thinking" in almost every piece written lately, only because I have pointed out in "China Needs the 'Pain in the Bottom'" that adhering to the truths rather than to virtues has become the tradition of the Western civilization since the Renaissance.
Are these facts or not, my dear sis?
Now let us examine the following statement:
"Put it simply, Lao Ma stuns the public with his incredible idiocy
where I shock people by telling the most embarrassing truth,
such as the Chinese is no doubt a nation that is really stupid,
not just ordinarily stupid, but outstandingly stupid."
As far as I know, Lao Ma has twice stunned the public most successfully, first time with his great theory of "rape is also love-making" and second time with the mock "June 4th court". Each time, he stunned the public with nothing other than his incredible idiocy.
There seems no need to point out the idiocy behind "rape is also love-making". With regard to the second stun, Lao Ma was equally idiotic. He has made so many follies that I (or any other person for that matter) simply cannot remember. In one word, he made himself a laughing stock in Dajia Forum and everyone there had a good laugh. Suffices it to name just one conclusion of his:
"Doing anything the law does not specify its feasibility is violating the law".
I still remember Zhang San Yi Yan's refutation:
"The law does not say you can breath, therefore, you are breaking the law while you are breathing."
Are these words or actions incredible idiocy, my lovely sis?
So why are Lao Ma's articles liked by some readers? The answer is dead simple: because they were amusing!
In an article, I compared Lao Ma's works to Xue Pan's poem "the girl is happy when something enters her". As readers have been so fed up with those "elegant poems" by Daiyu, Baoyu, etc, they are bound to like Xue Pan's vulgar yet shocking sentence. For the same reason, any person fed up with official or non-official propaganda is bound to like Lao Ma's mumbo-jumbos, because it reads bizarre, absurd, and yet amusing.
That's is another difference between Lao Ma and me. I inspire readers and broaden their horizons whilst Lao Ma stuns and amuses them. Whatever they might say, deep down, they treat Lao as they treat Xue Pan. Nobody except me, his "academic brother", takes him seriously. Yet, he complained that I did not respect him enough! His idiocy is really unbeatable, alas.
