</div>

Various _ad homiem_ attacks on the OP, many specifically relating to his/her lack of known ancestory and those that are known are too stupid to 1) wear clothes 2) engage in civilized sanitary practices 3) too stupid two rub sticks together for fire.

Detailed, point-by-point analysis of the OP, showing how it lacks originality and not enough gutter language to be truly worthy of a Pit Posting.

A numeric value of 2 significant digits awarded for First Pit Posting.

Newbie returns. Catty comments about gay content and elite conspiracy. Ridicule of moderators for harassment after a grand total of two posts. Politically incorrect comment about poster who isn’t even invovled in the post at all - yet. Threat to leave. Threat not carried out.
