\*\*What Exit? \*\* Dude - you must be bummed. I was so excited that my boy WE was going to be Pitted - I could hardly wait to read what it was about, get ready to commiserate behind the scenes about how unfair it is, yada yada yada. And THIS is what you got Pitted on?!?!!? You should ask for your money back. ---

> [@xtisme](#): > > Oh, what was the OP about again? Sorry, I lost track. I believe it was a thought experiment to find out if the words and phrasing of the OP would inspire more quotes from Monty Python or The Simpsons. I can tell because the 17th word would have been “the” instead of “this” if it had been a _Blazing Saddles_/_The Princess Bride_ showdown. ---

[QUOTE=Jenaroph] Anyone want banana bread? [/QUOTE] To be sure, I would love some. Us lumberjacks, we work up a powerful hunger for banana bread while we are out working with the ‘The Fir! The Larch! The Redwood! The mighty Scots Pine! The plucky little Aspen! The great limping rude tree of Nigeria!’ Could I get some nice tea with that as well? -XT ---

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > I stopped wasting my time on you a long time ago. It was one of those race related threads that you demonstrated your utter lack of understanding of biology. IIRC, \*\*Colibri \*\*had to give you a warning or two in a GQ thread on that subject. Gah-someone like the OP will only read this as encouragement. Now we’ll have a Pit thread with YOU as the focus. He’s like the song that never ends… He’s happy to call **WE** “liar boy” (and I am stunned into silence by the eloquence), but not so happy to be called one himself. Was there ever an episode of Twilight Zone that involved going back…way back… to second grade? We are in it now. ---

This thread is an epic backfire. The OP can only be described as irrational, neurotic, and self-destructive. ---
