Hi, I'm Esprix, an attention-hungry whore. Disagree with me, it makes me hot!

I looked at a boy the other day in a bar when I was drunkenly trolling, and he didn’t look back!

That hatefull fuck! What’s his problem? How could he not want me? Definitely self-hating Dahmer-action going on with that bitch.

Still, I’m in a mess. I passed a glance at a male in a situation, and he didn’t regard me. Am I losing it? Am I really an utter phoney?

Thank God my pony-boy lackeys, who have never said an original thing in their lives, will back me up. Don’t worry, they’re at their best when they say “Me, too.”

One-trick pony? I? You know how I hate being labeled.

Ha!

Did you not get the memo on parody threads?

Gosh, do we have some issues?

You’d better post a link to the post you’re ‘parodying’ or you’re going to be in trouble.

yawn

Wow! No one’s ever flamed Esprix before! Dude, you are so original! And intelligent! And handsome!

Only not.

Could you just be sure and put a cover letter on all your TPS reports? That’d be great. I’ll get you another copy of that memo.

(to the tune(chorus) of ‘Guide me o Thou great Jehovah’)
[Women]Who the fucking,
[Men]who the fucking,
[Together]who-the-fucking-hell-are-you?
[With grandeur]who…the…fucking…hell…are…you?[sustain]

I have nothing to say to the OP, but I just want to thank Mangetout for making me laugh out loud at work and further cementing my workmates opinion of me. Although I’ve got the tune stuck in my head now.

Alright, K&K.

You’ve got two hours after my post to rephrase your OP. I want to know what you think is wrong with Esprix, I want to see examples, and I want to see links.

The Pit is for bashing other posters, if you feel so inclined. But you cannot bash someone without a reason. Failure to produce a substantiated case will get this thread locked, and it might get you in trouble.

The clock is ticking.

Gawddamnit, Esprix:

Didn’t you get the memo?

I was supposed to get the next Pit thread by an attention-hungry loser.

I’m sorry man, but this unacceptable. I expect your resignation on my desk tomorrow morning.

Fenris, CEO, Attention Whores, Inc.

That’s funny. Last I heard, Esprix reveled in - and was loved for - his label as One-Trick Pony…

this is an area thaqt has me confused, and until K+K gets back with an explination, perhaps we can make use of this thread.

For want of better examples (and this is just to clarify, and not to condemn) hom many of the above comments could be classified as “pulling up deckchair” type posts?

TwistofFate -

It’s lawnchair, not deck chair.

Unless a nitpick post like this also violates the "no padding post counts with meaningless stuff like nitpicks or mention of seating arrangements in the Pit’ rule.

Oh shoot.

I’m standing up! I’m standing up!

Regards,
Shodan (who is just as big an attention whore as anyone else on the SDMB, thankyouverymuch, but wouldn’t feel comfortable starting an “Ask the Lutheran about his sex life” thread)

In my opinion, none.

  • Would obviously be one, as would:

My point being that, once again IMHO, the lawn chair posts are those that are calling for a scrap. I’ve always thought that they remind me of schoolkids in a playground, chanting “Fight, fight, fight”.

I suppose my points would have more weight behind them if I learned to spell Esprix correctly, huh?

:smack:

Well, to my mind (such as it is), your quintessential “pulling up deckchair” post doesn’t actually address the issue - just indicates the poster’s awareness of the thread. Whereas most of the above posts implicitly or explicitly take a position on the OP (have you noticed, they all seem to be “against”? Weird, that, isn’t it? Almost as if people actually like Esprix, or something…), and the ones that don’t are actively addressing other posts. I think that distinguishes them from the total wastes of bandwidth the “no deckchairs” rule is meant to deal with.

But what do I know? It’s damned hard to read the admins’ minds from this angle.

To address the OP: we’re all posting this gibberish on a public message board, for the world and his wife to read… aren’t we all really just attention whores? (Myself excepted, of course. I post purely as a public service; no issues of ego are involved at any level. And if you believe that, there’s this bridge in Brooklyn I’d like to sell you…)

Whoah no, Steve m’boy, I fell for that bridge trick once. Not gonna happen again.

But do you still have that oceanfront property in Arizona available for sale?

How exciting! By my clock, Kang has about 20 minutes!

So it’s either a) a parody, in which case there’s no link or any other indicative info or b) a serious flame, in which it’s a little lame because … well, because we can’t figure out the point.
