> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by waterj2 \* > \*\*The forum description does say that this is the forum where that should go. It doesn’t say that by putting it in this forum, your stupid whine will automatically be treated as an intelligent and valid point. \*\* You know, I was ready to just let this go… I think you just validated my ‘trigger-happy’ comment. It’s pathetic, really. Or did they make you **Pit** monitor while I wasn’t looking? How exactly does this bother you so passionately? Are you trying to get a flame out of me, Agent Kujan? Sorry, it’s not really my thing. One man’s gripe is another man’s whine. But I would like to know what you feel is stupid, un-intelligent and invalid about my post. (Wait - scratch ‘stupid’. That’s just your petty, knee-jerk opinion.) **Sofa King** , I stand corrected. Besides, I have a Romulan question coming up…😃 **JillGat** , Ok, ok…I was a little anxious - sue _me_. So, despite your sarcasm, thank you. (bows deeply and sincerly) ---

I was just pointing out that just because the Pit is the place for complaints against the administration, it doesn’t mean that complaining about the administration is a good idea, even there. Personally, I don’t give a shit whether or not you want to flame me. If I specifically trying for a flame war, I would have called you stupid and pathetic, not your OP. And I also don’t see where you read any sort of passion into my comment. ---

You are a dear! Thank you. The chocolate is in the mail. Steve ---

I mean we Canadians aren’t as litigious a people as you Americans… but I haven’t had had a raise in a couple of years and what with the cost of living… _wanders off, muttering to himself_ ---

(Walks in, passes out whips to those who didn’t bring them) Ok, everybody - lesson learned! I’m not a pit regular. Just getting aquainted with the place. Next time I’ll know what to expect and how to act. **Ukulele Ike** and **Superdude** , might wanna have those ears checked. Things worked out just fine with the desired effect. Now…Pitt hug. 😃 Steve [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/hey-is-there-a-moderator-in-the-house/85122.md?page=1)
