Is it just me, or are there others that shake their head at the sad spectacle of the loser that posts frequently using 30 pt type?

What is that guy's problem? Is his self-esteem so fucking low that only 30 pt type will justify his existance?...or does the dumbass think that our eyes can't see the regular 12-14 pt type?

...and why is it that even after he does it, still nobody responds to his posts?

...and while I'm at it, has anyone else noticed that more than once, the guy has tried to come off as being especially tight with Cecil...or portray himself as being Cecil-like?

Are there many posters out there in SDMB-land whose posts are as worthless as the posts of daniel p bostaph?

I'm going to get real good at avoiding you, C#3.

Bye.

I feel sorry for people who don't drink, because when they get up in the morning,

I like Daniel.
I also like C#3...
What I really enjoy is the different type dan uses...if I knew how to do it, I would be doing it right now

I dont think the type you use is any more obnoxious than the smilies we all use.

:whuggles: to all...

Dan's alright. I've not had any problems with loading due to his variety of font sizes or types. I wish I knew how to do it.. this Courier is really boring.

<font size=4> Ah, C#3, you insipid, excreitable troglidite! The day has arrived at last! Now I can bitch-slap your worthless,
gullible, brain-dead cadaver all around the BBQ Pit!
Chief Scott! Have you got the tickets for this bout printed up yet?
Ms. Scarlett O'Kellibelli? Could I trouble a grand lady such as yourself for a token, to wear whilst I joust with yon dragon/troll/UFO-peeking psycho?
Ayesha: Break out your cheerleading outfit, babe! This is the state championship & homecoming all rolled up into one!


Now....

C#3, you are a modest man , with much to be modest about. A genuine foul-weather fiend, uh, friend; you make Scarface Al look like Handsome Harry. And I assure you that comparing you to an ugly mobster is unfair to hoodlums everywhere.

The inside of your musty head is a exercise wheel; in which two gerbils, Vanity and Credulity by name, tussle fruitlessly over the walnut that represents your banal & pointless existance.
You are haunted by images of Phantom Kangaroos, Little Green Men & Chupacurras.
You obsess constantly about The Men In Black hiding the Loch Ness Monster in your toilet tank, as the Tidy-Bowl may irritate your buttocks.
Your alleged virtues have done more harm in the world than the vices of millions.
And Unca Cecil always liked me best!(That's why I'm in the will.)
I have thrown down my challenge! Reply , if you dare, you hooligan!</font>

Danny's use of 30-pt type is probably being driven by his insecurity caused by the lack of a sizable penis... We probably have a two-incher on our hands here folks...

Dan is fine.
In communication and matters sexual, as you so unsubtely mentioned, sometimes...DRUM ROLL!...style AND substance are appropriate.
Do please ask the extra-terrestrials to come back and remove your anal probe.

Yes, dear, I know I messed up spelling "unsubtle".

Eyestrain and small type, combined with bifocals and a laptop screen. I can't express how offended I am by larger type.

On the grand scale of things, couldn't you possibly find some more appropriate outlet for your obvious (no sarcasm this time) intelligence than nitpicking???

<font size="4">Again, you attempt to pass your bogus ass off as a talk show host. But you feeble & palsied Howard Stern act cannot fool a half-witted orphan ;which is a fair dscription of yourself, and rest assured that I will pass it along to Immigration ASAP. THEY know how to deal with YOUR KIND.

In addition, the endless jacking off that you engage in on a constant basis has obviously left you blind as a bat. There is a difference in font size.

As for penis size, I've named my 'little' friend---Free Willy, `cause it's WHALE SIZED.

Are the rumors about you true? Is it true that you derive sexual gratification from small woodland animals? That anything larger is beyond your, uh , 'capabilities'?

Sitting back, notebook in hand, he asks the patient,"This fascination with other people's penis sizes is interesting. Care to expand on that?"

It's so nice to see the pit come alive again.I,however,am not very good at this..yet. Anyone want to give me lessons?Could someone please flame me so I won't feel left out?Dan is obviously kind enough to post large for those who are visually impaired.Maybe he can't see the keyboard because his large penis is in the way!

"Free Willy" was a kids movie about a whale in captivity (aimed at a very young audience). C3 is implying that perhaps Daniel's penis is also "aimed" at kids)

Get it??

<font face="comic sans MS">Dismiss his feeble volleys from your minds, children. One shouldn't encourage the hoi polloi.
And C#3 has more Hoi than any other Polloi that I have met in my life.
Consider C#3's brillent series of careers(read:CAN'T HOLD A JOB):
1- recording studio technician\for the Richard Nixson Administration
2-Airship pilot\S.S. Hindenburg
3-Official bartender for the Prohibition party
4-Chief Safety Engineer\Three Mile Island Nuclear Reactor
5-Security Guard\University Of Texas Clocktower
6-Official Kool Aide Coordinator\Jonestown
7-Bartender(again-he just can't keep away from the sauce)-Exxon Valdez
8-Member of U.K. Prime Minister's Government as an expert on soccer riots. 483 1\3 % increase in soccer riots in just the first year!
9-editor\Jeffrey Dahmer Cookbook. "To Serve Man"
When the people in the Carolinas evacuated, it wasn't because of the hurricane; C#3 was "looking for some loving". EVERYTHING RAN! Men , boys, dogs, cats, sheep (C#3 is a Scot), goats, EVERYTHING!!!!
Except women. C#3 has never had one of those. Never will either.

And now that I've brought up your many personnal hygene problems C#3 (see 'no women" above), is that you lunch stuck between your teeth, or something scraped from out of the scuppers of a garbage scow?</font>

Ayesha walks onto the field, wearing her cheerleading outfit. Pom-poms held firmly in hand.

She looks at the crowd waiting for the cheers to die down. Jumps into the air, lands in the splits hops up and begins---


Give me a D----- D

Give me an A-----A

Give me a N---- N
whats that spell ? -----Dan


Dan, Dan, he's our man, if he can't do it, no one can.

Go Daniel, go Daniel,

Danny,

Your insults are just so unfunny and unrealistic that it's getting difficult for me to get psyched up to reply to you.

I've made you look like an idiot in multiple threads now...why don't you just give up?

I DECLARE VICTORY!

Pardon me, but since when are contestants
allowed to judge the contest ?

So who is the judge ? ChiefScott seems to be involved in a trial at the moment.
Hmmmmm, I know lets get Kellibelli, she likes both of them.

If it's just a flame contest, C3's got the edge.

If it's a personality contest . . . well, Connie's a bit behind the pack. But I think Dan lost MAJOR points by bragging about his penis size.

Dan, you'd like less of a jackass if you took as much care with your spelling as you obviously do with your coding.

Oh, I'm not questioning that C3 has his own. Dear GHOD, does he have issues. He has more issues than the Times.

But I can't bring myself to support any guy who must immediately defend Mr. Happy from slurs. Allah in a volkswagen, it's JUST A PENIS.

It's never just a penis, friend.

Apologies about the spelling, I post at the end of the day, after work . I'm tired.

Kellibelli: anytime!
