What’s really disgusting is, I believe there are people here on this board who did indeed lose loved ones on 9/11.

I think he’s trying to say that **updike** is brainless. Which is pretty much obvious.

Don’t worry your pretty little heads. I won’t be back. Pissing off paying customers is always a good idea, of course. I’m done here.

He’s not claiming to be Black, just claiming that if it’s racist to call a Black person “boy”, then it’s racist to call any adult “boy”. Which is completely besides the point. **Updike** , if you had any pride you’d just leave. Find another place to play.

On the contrary, I’d imagine your leaving will make a great deal more paying customers happy than pissed.

GOOD! Good answer.

Please, don’t come back. I’ll donate $15.00 to the Dope to make up for your slimy lying ass.

Shit, I’ll pay $50.00 to make sure you don’t come back.

If Updike really does leave for a little while then tries to slink back, I really really really want to be the first one to post “How are the folks?”.

Holy shit, even for you that’s an astonishing bit of arrant nonsense.  
Hey, **Xploder** , you accusing **askeptic** of having pinkeye? Dammit, don’t you know better than to do diagnosis over the Internet? 😛

For what my opinion is worth (and no worries - I know exactly how much that is), the “no jerk” rule has not only been broken, but it’s been shattered into little pieces and ground underfoot.

As opposed to what-lying about suffering from something that some people here HAVE just to win some stupid little pissing contest of your own making?

Boo-fucking-hoo. That cross must be mighty heavy.

This person has gone beyong the realm of simple jerkitude - he’s blasted off the face of the planet and is now in the jerkosphere.

“Jerk” doesn’t adequately discribe him, does it?

Nah. I was saying that since HE said that he was an albino then he MUST have pink eyes right? At least that’s what I thought I was saying…I’m pretty fucking tired right now.

Jesus.

Bye, **Updike** , don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out!

Why can’t people meltdown over real shit in their fucked up lives (like I’ve done) rather than inventing it? 😕

Meteor 1: “I learned that most Updikes burn up in Earth’s jerkosphere.”

[Meteors fall to earth]

Meteor 1: (on fire) aaaaaaa the jerkosphere. aaaaaah  
Meteor 2: ahhhhhhh, the jerkosphere. ahhhhhhh

HE? _HE_? Just because someone’s a bit volatile doesn’t mean you have any right to compare them to high explosives.
