> [@Cat\_Whisperer](#): > > Anyone else seriously thinking about trying to do this? Just me? Okay. 🙂 The beauty of it is that now that **Boyo** humped the landmine, the funniest possible thing to say in response to almost any post is “Is your 7 ear old looking for a boyfriend?”. It’s now the funniest joke you can make out of any combination of letters, by virtue of the horrible job he did trying to make it a joke in the first place. ---

I refuse to believe anybody looked at that sentence and decided it was funny and should be posted. In fact, I’m only accepting that it was even supposed to be a joke at all because everybody else seems to think it was and who am I to argue the point. “Is your seven year old looking for a boyfriend?”. Thats not a joke, thats just creepy. ---

He popped into the “Women, why do you wear a bra?” thread to inform the ladies of the world that [he never moves above a slow shuffle](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=16621333&postcount=26). Uh… thanks for sharing, bro. That really added a lot. I guess that explains why you need a bra. I mean… you wear a bra right? Cause otherwise, I might have thought that was a dickish, irrelevant drive-by.

Yes but what relevance is the comment? The question is for women who wear bras. Hence my categorization of it as an irrelevant drive by, not pitworthy in itself. At a certain point, though, the need to post irrelevancies is a form of jerkishness. ---

There was nothing at all wrong with his comment in that bra thread. ---
