This sentiment brought to you courtesy of the subject individuals absolutely asinine comments in the posting linked here:

Well, you were the first one who suggested using the “See Spot Run” literary style as emphasis.
Don’t dish out what you can’t take.
Yeah, Truthseeker You made me laugh so hard I practically inhaled a piece of chicken korma. Now I’ve got bits of dead semi-flightless bird stuck in my lungs which are probably going to sit there till they grow into a whole new chicken and fly out my left nostril. I hope you’re happy.
Oh, sorry, wrong rant…
FTR, though, Monty’s right about sign language.
I can take it.
I didn’t call him names, although OBSTINATE came to mind.
Well, no, you didn’t call him names, but you did tell him to go felch himself.
What’s the difference exactly?
Well, gee, Laurange; and exactly where in the GD thread did I tell him that?
Anyway, what he was bitching about regarding a “short history” of Sign Language, I already provided, although it was a very simplified short history of languages and regions.
Well, the only name he called you in the GD thread (that I can tell) was Monty, so I really can’t see your point.
Hmm. I have to say, I wouldn’t think that Truth Seeker’s post (since it was hilarious) would have prompted such a response in the Pit. I’m just as confused as LauraAnge is on this one.
Oh please. You told the guy to felch himself here.
There was really no reason for you to bring such a petty peice of crap like that into the Pit. Now you have to take your lumps.
Since the subject of creating deaf children is now more-or-less in the Pit:
[HiJack!]
Fuck those people! What in the blue hell are they fuckin’ thinking? Why would any parent want to create a child with a disability on purpose?! Yep, that’s right. I said a disability. Not being able to hear is a fucking disability. If that sounds unreasonable then you should check your head. If I grew up deaf and learned that my shit for brains parents had made me that way on purpose I would probably take them to court for ruining my life! I mean, what the fuck were they thinking?
[/HiJack]
Truthseeker, I’m with you on this one. Your response in the GD thread cracked me up, which does not happen often in GD! Thanks!
Monty, don’t be a douche bag. You have already shown that you like to be sarcasitc, so here’s some for you: “Great post man! Lets hear more!”
:rolleyes:

Oh, I’m slayed that Sweet Willy has an opinion about me. :rollseyes:
I see that none of y’all has figured out that what I’m mainly bitching about was the asinine comments regarding what he said I should’ve done…
BECAUSE I FUCKING DID THAT ALREADY!
But — but — you needed to start a PIT thread for this? Huh? How was it THAT bad that you needed to start a PIT thread?
Can anyone figure this one out?
That Truthseeker post was one of the best I’ve ever seen. Thanks, Monty, for bringing my attention to it.
Of course, you missed where TruthSeeker mentions how he (Truthie’s a “he”, yes?) mentions how you should’ve replied… take note of this: “See Monty give a snotty answer! Bad, Monty, bad!”
Feel better now, old chap? Methinks you get a tad too gung-ho when it comes to calling people to the Pit.
There you have it folks Mangetout’s Law (the use of the ‘J’ word in an attempt to induce a moderator to ban).
Oh, and Willy, quit with the dictionary thing, wouldya? - it just makes you look anal.
But really, isn’t that bad enough in itself?
Monty had his pomposity pricked. jjimm laughed. “Ha ha ha” went jjimm. “Ha ha ha”.
But I am anal. Wouldn’t want to give the wrong impression.
That’s not an image I needed, thanks.
