I’ll keep this brief, so your limited attention span can comprehend it. You have provided a public service. If I am ever in need of an example of low class, your post in **Sampiro’s** thread is a perfect example. ---

Yes, **NinjaChick** , that’s the one. Sorry I didn’t provide the link and thank you for doing it for me. ---

I was going to make a comment here. But on second thoughts I will not. Maybe I will. Surely this person Snakesonplane was just trolling yes. So I am not sure starting this pit will do anything. I do not know Sampiro, so I cannot really comment. Perhaps this person Snakes was just trying to say in a very bad way that he did not like reading long posts. I do not either. I would not post a reply unless I did though. Maybe if I knew Sampiro I could read through that huge post to see that it was nothing to troll or joke about. As Snakes said , he did not read the entire post, so he did not realise it was not something to be trolling or joking (I should say trying to joke about). Maybe I should not post this if it causes any more strife. I am just giving my opinion. Submit. ---

I just read the Forum rules for the pit. Am I not allowed to even imply that Snakesonplane posted a possibly trolling post ? Am I in trouble now ? I hope I did not break the rules ---

I am disappointed now. I came in thinking that someone had actually meant to pit “Snakes on a plane”, the movie. (And sorry, wolfman, I beg to disagree. “Snakes on a plane” is the title of the movie. “Snakes on a Motherfuckin’ Plane” is a joke about the movie and Samuel L Jackson’s character in Pulp Fiction. “Snakes on a plane” is also apparently the name that a guest chose.) ☹ ---

[QUOTE=blinkingblinking] I just read the Forum rules for the pit. Am I not allowed to even imply that Snakesonplane posted a possibly trolling post ? Am I in trouble now ? I hope I did not break the rules [/QUOTE] Technically, your interpretation of the rules is correct: Saying someone is trolling is off-limits and can get you warned. But you’re new here, and you didn’t do it in a way likely to cause problems for anyone. I don’t think anything will happen to you. Just to make things clear: If you think a post is a troll, click the little red triangle in its top right corner to report it to the moderators. Don’t mention it in the thread. Let the moderators handle it. ---

I don’t have a bit of a problem with someone not liking to read long posts. I don’t click on every thread on the board, and some I do open I don’t finish because it isn’t something that is interesting to me. I also don’t take the time to make a snarky remark about it. If you don’t have time to read the thread, save the time you’re wasting and let the hamsters catch their breath. ---

**Snakescatlady** , we should give credit where credit is due, [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=7412512&postcount=19) was the heartless, lowlife, egocentric post that started it all. If anyone doesn’t know what it means, it’s “Too Lazy, Didn’t Read” ---
