A delusional dumb bell. A pear shaped snit in a brown paper bag. An odious excuse proffered too late by a boring old fart with foot disease. He has an opinion about the TV show Glee. I can’t stand the guy. I don’t care for Czarcasm, either. He’s a repellent failure. He’s obnoxious, childish, and I suspect his chin recedes. Think how happy I might be if his mother had refused his father’s seed. He’s too dumb for prison and too fat to hang. I mean as a person, he’s a complete loss. Marley is a tosser. Sometimes you almost think he might not be, but realize you’re mistaken, a feat he’ll never manage. His face is damaged. He’s a wretch in a used suit. Marley, as a human, sucks. ---

There’s hope still … pretty cagy not stating the offending opinion … if it’s just that **Dex** has an opinion, any opinion about _Glee_ … then we better get our funeral clothes to the dry cleaners right away ---

I concur with the OP. CKDH is a tosser. Well read, writes good prose, proffers interesting and original arguments. And is courteous. Do you want a wanker like that as your Admin? ---

Has there been some sort of moderation flareup here in recent days? I’ve noticed a bit of shrapnel in various threads, but I can’t be bothered to look for the source. If so, is it any different from the usual semiannual bitchfest? ---

It’s the stupidest flare up I’ve ever seen over a whole lot of nothing. ---

Let’s see … this is a Pit about not being allowed to Pit the moderators … “ **Dex** is the finest individual I’ve ever had the honor to meet, **Czarcasm** is just too smart for me and **the other person** is something or another that’s good.” Glad I still have my kneepads from my concrete finishing days. ---

In that case, he gave no examples. I’m shocked, _shocked_ I tell you, that y’all aren’t up his ass for posting contentless twaddle. Unless of course he(and you) are just being rilly, rilly clever about not pitting the mods. Naw. Who would be juvenile enough to try something like that? :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: ---

Maybe I did, as I hadn’t seen the threads that seem to be inspiring this. Now that I have, I’m sorry that I opened any of them. OTOH, this could be a thread trying to test limits, or an “I dare you” thread. Either one might be construed as quasi-suicidal, given the present, er, “troubles”.
