Well I hope this thread pops up with new posts for months into the future to give you a long time to think about what you’ve done, mister.
It might even be a good place to share some of our favorite Tom Petty memories, tributes and lyrics which could go on essentially forever. That will teach you.
Crazyhorse, I think you’re onto something!!
He got a lot of practice on King of the Hill!
Both evocative and original - congratulations!
drad dog wasn’t previously on my radar either, and since there are a number of Dopers who have non-mainstream opinions and/or poor social skills I considered it possible that he really didn’t get that the reason he was hearing a bunch of nice things about Tom Petty all of a sudden was because the man just died. But it became increasingly obvious that drad dog isn’t just a troll, he’s an unusually boring troll.
I think Idle Thoughts has his number:
Can’t you guys settle your petty disagreement?
NORM!
I dunno, I’ve never seen you. But I’ve always imagined you something like an older version of Mr. Regular from Regular Car Reviews. Slim to average build, average height, beard – a little dad-ish, but not too much.
(Could be worse, ya could look like a mix between Frank Sobotka and Rick Sanchez!)
Yeah, you might have come out too strong at the first, but you’re pacing yourself now. Let the crowd work him over some, then go in to finish him off when he’s flailing. That is, if the condescending little weenie has it in them to come back and take their medicine. Come to think of it, getting your knocks in at the title was genius! Woe to them who don’t read threads and just assume they understand what’s going on from the title.
This NSFW image seems stunningly apropos.
Umm, I got mostly Bert and Ernie books from that Google search link. I can’t really fathom how that would be NSFW without surreal fantasies on the part of the viewer. Could you be more specific?
Did you read the titles of those Bert n’ Ernie books? “Your Opinions are Shit!”
Now go the fuck to sleep. ;).
Heh. I Need to Know (one of the songs I play. Very fun rocker with such sad, anxious lyrics. He’s Othello with a blond Carol Brady haircut.)
Y’know, I wish drad dog could overcome his butthurt at the wording kerfuffle - Fuck You, in this case, is a way of saying Godammit, knock it off, you fool. Several people have stated surprise at the Pitting by me and the (sweet, sweet) vitriol from Idle Thoughts, who clearly had had time to think 
it’s true: I’ve been here 16 or so years and never Pitted anyone.
drad, people do not like your tone and posting style. Do you see that?
And, given that it seems to be a lot of folks and no one has posted in your defense (“I like having to prove stuff to drad dog. It works my brain muscle!”), what say you?
I look like Dan Aykroyd - his thin stage up through dad-bod but not fully fat like him now. I’m the dorky dad from Modern Family if he liked to talk about music, books, philosophy and physics. And could rock a Telecaster through a dirty Tweed amp like a MF ;).
I’m not. 
I dunno. I hear you’re pretty fucking over-rated.
I honestly had no idea so many people hated drad dog.. I kinda like him. He’s a music snob, but fuck it, I’m an all-around snob.
He annoyed me. A lot of things annoy me, I annoy myself. I annoy other people. I’m probably annoying people now. My grammer is probably annoying people, I wish they placed more emphasis on that in college.
At one point I think I thought he had potential to be less annoying, I haven’t read any of his posts in a while though - they were annoying me, so I stopped reading them.
I think I’ll go have some soup.
Hey! That’s my soup!
Can you be overrated as a dork?? 
Ukulele Ike* - sharing a little Snob Love from Brooklyn! Are you saying you identify with his inner hipster?
*i like to abbreviate usernames if they come across as nicely-intended and fun. I was getting ready to reply to your post, and typed out “Uke Ike” but then mentally said it out loud. :eek:
Theese is pit thread! No soup for you!
I’m annoyed that you can’t spell grammar.
You know who else is an annoying douchebag? Kelsey Grammer. Fuck you, Frasier!
