[ok, so, maybe that’s like asking you to stop breathing, but damn.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=8378589#post8378589) You started the thread, it’s not going the way you wanted, but continuing to post /quote responses w/nonesensical responses= you being an asshole.

Eh, let’s leave it open for now. If nothing else, it’ll save **Aeschines** from having to start a new Pit thread to explain that “yum yum moo moo” is actually a complex and meaningful post and that by warning him I completely missed his subtle point.

you know, I asked to have this closed,'cause I thought the issue was moot and I wanted you to have the opportunity to stop. But I see that you have no intention of stopping being an asshole.  
I’d hoped that you’d self moderate. obviously I was mistaken. you deserve what you get.

Or, you know… not. Speaking of not handling, though, I can’t help but notice that **Aesechines** can’t handle a two page Pitting without needing to dodge into pseudo-“I am one level above you” mode.

Can’t say I see that. Why, precisely, would anyone give any weight to a ‘fuck you’ from, well, you?
