**iampunha** , your post count and PPD does not bother me at all. You’ve had three freaking years to bulid that up.  
Q.E.Pencil shavings are yum yum fun in my stomach has only been here for about a month, and has over 2000 posts. If he posts at the same freqency, he’d probably surpass handy in a year or two.  
And that’s disturbing.

And since you only have 100 some-odd posts, I ask that you leave until you have as many as Q.E.D.

Teeheehee, you probably think that actually makes sense!

**iampunha** I’d just like to point out that **Q.E.D.'s** ppd is more than three times yours.

27.57 vs. 8.9.

Way to pick a poster who probably deserves to be pitted the least. What did he do to you anyway?

Apparently you haven’t the slightest clue about the circumstances that justify its use. This is the pit moron.

My registration date is listed as 01-06-2003. Today is 03-28-03. might I suggest a few remedial math courses? That’s about 3 months, 3 weeks, give or take.

Oh, so you _are_ aware of sarcasm. You seem to be having trouble recognizing it from others.

I’m sorry, I was a time traveller coming from 2 months ago when I posted that, so in err I said month.  
Or it could be because I forgot to look at your reg date again.  
Jackass.

Actually, no, we’re not. We’re not supposed to feed them in any way.

Just let it die.

[sub]Of course, I’ve just bumped it to the top again with this post, which makes me a jerk, which is a bannable offense. That’s irony, MachineHead.[/sub]
