I guess I draw it out. Think y-el. I suppose ‘a’ could have two syllables also, a-uh, haha.

I guess I draw it out too. And so does the guy who pronounces the words for Merriam Webster Online.

Ah, you couldn’t find that one in your files, I guess. Keep looking; with all those folders, it’s gotta be in one of them.

Dude, what the fuck? Do you follow me into every thread? Da’hell is your problem?

Nope, I don’t have to. You pop into most MPSIMS and Pit threads at one point or another, and those happen to be the fora I spend most of my time in (a quick search can verify that).

I disagreed with you in a Pit thread a while ago and everyone came out of the woodwork saying that I hated you. I didn’t then, but I thought it might be fun to start snarking you anyway (on this board, I mean, though I didn’t snark you Over There either), since once I started paying attention I realized that you were saying the same thing in pretty much every thread.

FTR, I still don’t hate you. Your posts amuse me, in their own way.

When did I say “I thought it’d be fun to start snarking you to see your responses”? It might be time to go to the ol’ eye doctor for a lookup, I’m afraid. Too much time staring at a computer screen can do that.

Didn’t find any attention there but I cleaned behind the fridge today and found two or three ounces of it mooshed in a corner. It’s kinda…mildewy…or something…but I’m sure it will wash up just fine. Will put it in the mayonnaise jar and wait for **2.5** to claim it.

Oh fuck you.

**Hostile Dialect** made an ass out of himself earlier when he made that comment, but you are only proving him him right by making this reply. Everyone you disagree with, or who makes an “inappropriate” comment, MUST be a troll.  
Shut the fuck up, really.

[QUOTE=don’t ask]  
**Two and a Half Inches of Fun** I’ll make you an offer. I will happily pay your fee for you. If you decide that you don’t want to join, fuck it I’ll quit too. If you are too much for the SDMB to deal with this is becoming the weakest board on the net. Shit it will be way easier learn Clapton’s solo parts without the SDMB.  
[/QUOTE]

I happily accept your offer. Do you need any information to pay the fee? You (or anyone else) can e-mail me at [maximumat@yahoo.com](mailto:maximumat@yahoo.com)

Thank you for offer and your paying of the fee. This board is awesome.

PS - I am kind of drunk from the Super Bowl. I hope this post does not come across as flip. I really appreciate the offer to pay the fee.

I hope there is some neutral Doper who can tell me how to do what I promised. I have done it before but can’t make it happen this time.

Can you pay for him on the single proviso he stops posting all those fucking stupid OPs all the time?

If you were willing to pony up the $15 yourself, then I might suggest you pay for someone else’s subscription.

**don’t ask** , what’s the point of ponying up some guy who hasn’t pled poverty and isn’t even sure he wants to sign up? I’m sure you could find better things to do with your money, and it leaves him with no skin in the game. I don’t see the benefit. 😕
