I’m not sure what you’re Pitting yourself for, **Boyo Jim**. Checking your recent posts, the most offensive seems to be from the Haiku Madness thread:

This might enrage me if I were a Celine Dion fan. Instead I’m afraid I’ve never heard of her.

These threads are each several years old. Perhaps you should be Pitted for not enraging people often enough. BTW, it was clever to start a self-Pitting thread in MPSIMS instead of BBQ Pit. Hoping for more confused respondents to get BANNED, is it? 😛
