Dude, who are you trying to fool? It must be yourself, because the rest of us can read the post dates and times and see you are full of shit. Again, Lord Ashtar posted his reply on the 17th (at 6:38 pm). This thread then dropped off the radar. Then you come back today (the 23rd) and post a reply, thus keeping the thread lurching along…and pretty much proving LA’s point in his last post!

I give seven days as the high/low for how long it will take after this thread falls off the front page for him to bump it again. Any takers?

As long as ya’ll keep replying to it, he’ll always have a reason to bump it up, because he’ll always have something to quote and reply to a week from now.  
(of course, for all I know (and expect) if nobody replied, he’d just keep it bumped talking to himself and occasionally posting links—I’m half tempted to post a topic myself and to keep bumping it up myself to see how long before a mod closes it)

I’m on his vast and diverse ignore list, so me replying doesn’t push the thread forward. Besides, the hamsters don’t really mind all that much, and it’s fun to keep tweaking him for being such an idiot.

I figure that he will go back to one of his offshoring threads next and declare victory while saying that no one on this board (besides him and gonzo) REALLY understands how tariffs and international trade works. You have to be one with the masses to really get a good feel, and the folks on this board hate Americans and kick puppies and kittens when they are down.

I put 100,000 quatloos that you’ll come back and try to get the last word.

Quatloos are undervalued by 30%. They are the epitome of what is wrong with outsourcing. Not to mention Thrall labor.

I’m surprised there’s anyone left here he hasn’t put on Ignore. This must be a one-page thread for him.

Are you going to come back and post a cite of **gonzomax** leaving **John Mace** “hog tied and squealing on [his] front porch” like I asked for? Because if not, then yes, I likely will get the last word.

Correction: John Headcase hogties himself so often that gonzomax is usually too late when he does show up.

Gonzomax is so far ahead of you intellectually and maturity-wise that it’s not even fair for him to bother with you. Which is why you guys vilify him so much.

Wow! I missed that one. How often does someone have a thread closed in the Pit because the OP is stooopid?

… you know, I wondered for a while if you were for real, but that mystery’s over. **gonzomax** wouldn’t know a coherent English sentence if one came up behind him, tapped him on the shoulder, and threatened to send his job to Mumbai.

Translation: your poor reading comprehension inhibits you from understanding what he says.

Gonzomax’s biggest error around here is he talks too far above you.

Ever poke your head into the newest page of a long-running Pit thread just to see what sort of turn the conversation has taken? It’s pretty fun.

Page 10 of this thread is like a parody of what I imagined it might be like.

This whole forum is a parody of its parent website.

Just for the record, do you agree with **gonzomax** ’s beliefs about mortgages?
