If one of them is a bigger piece of shit than the other I can understand how they might assume bragging rights. Now if they were\* equal sized \* pieces of shit with the same size, consistency, number of corn kernals, etc I would be willing to agree to a fairness label. ---

> [@FoieGrasIsEvil](#): > > Has he been imprisoned for this shit (I confess to only skimming the thread and not reading the links)? Well, he took a job in Saskatchewan and it turns out that he didn’t tell them that he was being investigated in Ontario. The people of Saskatchewan didn’t take too kindly to that. He isn’t in jail, but it may still happen down the road. At the very least, I am confidant, he will not be practicing medicine again. ---

_pfffft_ No moderator I, not even a junior one, but “asshole” doesn’t contravene the restricted language in the Pit rule. Meanwhile, your little drama _is_ interfering with a perfectly good pitting of an inarguably deserving subject. Have you considered building a case that **miss elizabeth** is stalking you, and presenting it either in a Pit or a report to the mods? ---

So you ARE a Junior Mod.

I didn’t create any drama. I was called a “piece of shit” by one idiot, and an “asshole” by another. Blame them for the drama.

I think tattling to Mods is a pussy moves, Ill handle my business my way, right here. ---
