manhattan, So, if I understand you correctly, you object to the way that the Pit has organically evolved over time and, in absence of a Mod moving threads or an Administrator making some sort of ruling on the type of threads that are to be started in the Pit, have taken it upon yourself to make threads here more hostile than they would otherwise be? Do I have that right?

Nice try, Matlock. I’m flaming people in the BBQ Pit.

Oh, I have a job. A soul-crushing, mind-numbing job, in which it does not matter if I spend all day browsing the internet, for all my work is make-work, anyway.

Damn, I didn’t even know we had a branch in Baltimore.

So I’m just having a little bit of retro fun at LHD’s expense.

So you’re just having a bit of fun being a jerk at another person’s expense. Truly pathetic. Well past the time for you to deal with your hostility problem.

@manhattan

For my own part, I’ve just become increasingly annoyed with the whole use of the Pit as another forum with cusswords. Fuck that. If you’re gonna flame somebody, flame 'em! And expect to get flamed back! So I’m just having a little bit of retro fun at LHD’s expense. This forum ain’t called “The Crock Pot” or “The Simmerer” and it’s certainly not called “GD with Swearing.”

Holy shit and halleleuja. Lately it’s nothing but MPSIMS with swearing. WTF?

Also Bianarydrone- I have seriously in as long as I’ve been on these boards never known someone who needs a cup of STFU so badly. Honest to God, do you know how fucking stupid you sound in these threads? What a whiny bitch you are.

I won’t bother telling manny what an Unclefucker he is- he already knows, I’m sure.

There are a couple of things that are funny about this. One is that your opinion is about as meaningful to me as the sound that a fart makes in high wind. The other thing is that I have absolutely no intention of shutting up, and there is not one thing that you can do about it.

[tomndebb]

Jus’ 'cause this is the Pit and I’ve been passing up straight lines, lately:

Oh, I have a job. A soul-crushing, mind-numbing job,

Well, it can’t be soul-crushing because that is a figment of the manipulative creators of those fictive religions and as to mind-numbing, it either had nothing to work on or it has done its work too well.

This was directly prompted by the straight line and does not reflect any actual reality, regardless of any other conflict I may have had with Scotty.

She said that you need a cup of STFU, and questioned your self-awareness. She didn’t actually tell you that you had to shut up or that it would kill her if you DIDN’T shut up…just that you could use a hot, steamin’ cup the fuck of it.

Let’s be accurate, people.

She didn’t tell you to shut up, Einstein.

BTW, it isn’t the sound a fart makes, it’s the smell, therefore you’ll think my opinion stinks. I gotta agree, you certainly are a whiny little bitch, aincha? Why do you open Pit threads if your poor little heart can’t handle it?

[SlyFrog]

I don’t have time to read this whole thing, but I skimmed it. Please tell me this is what it looks like, which is:

1. A thread complaining about people who hijacked a different thread to continue their stupid little private war, which thread itself is -

2. Hijacked by those people to continue their stupid little private war.

I love it.

, heh, no, the soul has nothing to do with “gods” in the least. I am sure it would be nice to let you get away with such a straight line, but I have two possible explanations to my using that word. Unfortunately, neither is funny. The soul, it is claimed is what makes you, you, and relates to a pleasant idea of survival after death. However, the fact of it is, the soul is simply the ability to draw breath. Ancient people sometimes conceived of the soul as an animating spirit in the air, i.e. oxygen, and at other times, as being, a being that could escape your body if you weren’t too careful. Thus, the blessing when you sneeze. Another, equally unfunny reason, is that it is a culturally imposed habit, like saying “Jezus!”, when annoyed, as opposed to the some other word or phrase, like “Void it!”

Oh, and Contrapuntal, the answer is no.

[Binarydrone]

Uh Oh! Looks like I am on the Bitch Brigade’s radar.

Pretty close to the mark. Not that I want these fine upstanding gentlemen to keep on rolling around in the dirt, but take a gander at the other thread and notice the spike in signal-to-noise ever since I started this one. It bothers me not at all if this one gets hijacked.

True, Dan’l. For a while there it was like they were doing “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolfe” with all their “You’re a drunk!” and “You’re a fool!”
