As John Hodgman might say, you’re welcome.

Not the actual actual Bryan, but Bryan’s avater. More specifically, Bryan’s metaphorical avatar. Even more specifically, Bryan’s theoretical metaphorical avatar. Ultimately the OP is addressing Bryan’s hypothetical theoretical metaphorical avatar.
It’s so clear if you would just allow yourselves to see it.

Yes and no. The decision is which bottle to finish first.

One has to say that it takes a certain kind of skill to write an OP so confusing, you don’t know whether he’s calling out **Bryan Ekers** or **Bricker** , or whether he’s referring to God, Gatorade, or Snoop Dogg.

A vast improvement on his usual OPs, then.

The whole idea that there is some guy who can see everything we are doing, judge us on it, and then reward those who behave well and punish those who do not is just stupid. (And I don’t believe in Santa Claus either)

Haven’t you been paying attention? I’ll give you a hint: He works for the Government. 😛

Satan works for the Government? I don’t know why that surprises me – it’s what the Republicans have been saying for years.

Oh…. and um, interesting rhythmic devices, too, which seemed to counterpoint the, er… Counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor of the, um… Vogonity. Sorry. Of the poet’s compassionate soul which contrived through the medium of the verse structure to sublimate this, transcend that and come to terms with the fundamental dichotomies of the other. And one is left with a profound and vivid insight into… err… Into whatever it was … …that the post was about!
You are so misinterpreting what Sontag had to say about G\*.

In any other thread what I am about to admit would be cause for great embarrassment.
I have read every post in this fucking thread and still have no idea what the fuck it is about or who it is pitting.

It seems confusing at first but **BrEkers** just got his dog burned. We aren’t talking a daschund on a Weber either. This is flame thrower on a Golden Retriever level incineration. Also, Rudolph isn’t one of the real raindeer but he is always the one people name first and Santa does not approve. I’m not liking it. Not one bit.
