treis, for his occasional bullshit threemae, for Pitting me because she couldn’t stand it that I collect sentence gems from assessment tests and post them here; and for ganging up on me along with treis when I was pitting a student for bullying me Smapti, for so many reasons. ---

No, we regard you as an asshole because you are, not because of your opinions. _Those_ are asinine. ---

> [@BlankSlate](#): > > It’s exactly this sort of anal-leakage you dribble all over the Elections forum, leaving it virtually unreadable. **adaher** is an unmistakable example of the very thing that Cecil has been struggling with for 42 years. You, OTOH, have the option, if his blinkered stupid becomes to much for you, to visit your user control panel and add him to the list of posters whose content gets squeezed to a single line of text that indicates that a thing that you did not want to read appeared there. If his fetid emanations and pervasive inane threadshits are more than you can tolerate, blessed relief is within your own hands. So fail to be such a goddam whiner. Deal with it or deal with it. ---

The Ignorance Fighting Board is starting to look about as apt a description as Fair and Balanced. Fortunately, this board is less relevant, but it’s still fun to watch posters who think so highly of themselves descend into idiocy. See, now I’m being an asshole. ---

> [@Knorf](#): > > I think adaher is a blithering idiot, but not really an asshole. Thank you. I know I’m not always right, maybe I’m so out of it I don’t know how wrong I am. But I do try to keep it civilized, which makes me not an asshole. And again, if we’re just disagreeing on a matter of opinion, neither person can be an asshole. That’s like saying people who dislike broccoli but like corn are assholes because you like broccoli and hate corn. It’s complete nonsense. ---
