Got an answer for me yet?

Thought not: all mouth, no balls.

Hey Grossbottom, come over here and step into my trap! No? Why not? Hey, why not! Hey! Look at me, I’m mad! How come no one steps in my traps? Hey this isn’t fair. How come I can’t ambush people, how come!

I don’t think it’s “sign up”; more like “get in line”.

Or just take a wide stance.

I find it a bit surprising, **Shodan** , that you would know all about the etiquette (or lack thereof, as it appears from this neophyte’s view) of putting your balls in guys’ mouths and what else have you. I mean, not that the cheap-shot is anything new with you – quite the contrary – but I had you pegged for a solid, hetero, God-fearing/family values, stalwart of the good all-American Imperialist Right Wing.

But hey! As a progressive what can I say? Whatever floats your dinggy.

Kindest of regards,

~Red

Ever notice how Shodan is kind of like China? The more you try to point out that the “Regards” sig is a violation of human rights, the more entrenched he becomes in his insistence on using it.

I didn’t see it so much as etiquette as much as logistical necessity.

I can neither confirm nor deny the rumors of my predilections, except to say that **Princhester** and I, the beagle, the llama, and the ex-Soviet gymnastic team are very happy.

It’s not my problem that you’re so gutless and have so little confidence in your own position that you think debating me will result in you becoming trapped. The whole “trap” nonsense is a concoction of your paranoia and fear.

I thought your position was Objective and Realistic? What is it exactly that is causing you to piss yourself over answering one little question? What are you so scared of?

You’re all mouth and no balls.

Clearly he’s afraid you’re going to rip his faith to shreds, leaving him a shell of a man with no reason to go on living. Logically, without God and the reward of Heaven, there is no need to be good, so he would automatically become evil and start raping and murdering people.

Do you want all those rapes and murders on your conscience, **Princhester**? Do you really? If not, just take solace in the fact that you are right and **Grossbottom** is wrong. Let this one slide, man.

Wait, wasn’t this about what a useless looser Der Trihs is?

Guess not… thank god I have no dog in this fight.

Your fixation on my mouth and genitals would disturb me if it wasn’t so common. Truly, I have this pouty bottom lip that the ladies love, and my balls are huge. But, and now I can hear your heart breaking, I don’t do men. I’m sorry. Have you asked **Der Trihs**? A little batshit manlove between the two of you might be just what you need to blow off that infantile rage you’ve been building up. Go on, PM him, don’t be shy, according to you internet message boards are the place to show courage so don’t falter now. Love is all that matters, man, srsly.

And yet still no substance. No debate, no answer to my question.

All talk and no guts.

Is that better? Does avoiding the use of sexual metaphor allow you to get past your infantile twitterings and deal? I’m guessing not. You’ve got nuthin’

Oh **Princhester** , you taunt me so well, how can I continue to refuse? How can I continue to suffer the slings and arrows of your cutting wit without retaliation? How can I permit my personal courage to be questioned by so valorous a specimen as yourself? Your internet bravery is manifest, incomparable.

I am outmatched. Your sheer brilliance in execution has unmanned me.

What was the question again?

And neither will I ask, as it’s already way TMI. Must admit though, the llama thing piques my curiosity. Spit-showers, mebbe?

Never mind. Let’s leave it at that.
