I see by your name that you are a guest, so I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and won’t turn the heat up too high. Having said that…

WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, ASSHOLE?!? For you to come into a memorial [thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=7365467#post7365467) and try to turn it into a political discussion thread, even after cautions were given, is arrogant and rude beyond belief. Then you got a warning from a mod and were enough of a dumbshit to post this in response:

> [@](#):

I’m actually amazed that **SkipMagic** has not visited you with the Mod Jackboot Of Death being shoved up your ass. You sure as hell deserve it.

Here, let me award you your first (and probably not last) official Wally: :wally

😃 Oh, man. After reading on the OP, I thought, “Wow, could this be a case where **Clothahump** finally got something right?”

Never mind.

I suspect that the Left Wing Media deliberately delayed his post as it made its way through the interweb.

What other possiblity is there?

Ah, come on people, let’s not use this as an excuse to pile on **Clothahump**. Misreading the time stamps is an easy thing to do, and i’m sure we’ve all done it at times and not got this amount of pointing and laughing.

I did this once before, too…pretty embarrassing. All this righteous rage and then you discover it’s for naught.

Sure, its easy to do. That doesn’t make it any less funny. Besides, all the frothing vitriolic hatred Humpy regularly dishes out does not compare to a little pointing and laughing he is being subjected to here.

True. I just thought it might be good if we could be the bigger people, here.

The important question is, [does this make **Clothahump** twee](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=315282)?

True but turning ones nose up at others having a little harmless fun does not make one a “bigger” person it just makes one a tight ass.

Besides, when humpy stumbles back in I doubt he will take to much offense at a little good natured ribbing.

Heh, I thought the exact same thing.

But it’s true that missing the date on a post is a very easy mistake to make, I can’t rag on him about that too much.

Probably not. Remembering his usual Pit style, though, we probably won’t see him for a good while.
