Yeah, what’s the matter with you? Let’s keep our fight here. I hate New York and anyone who love or gladly live in this city. Am I free to hate? I think so. Why am I not allowed to make negative comments?

Wait a minute. I am not a jerk. I am truly sorry for those who lost their friends, relatives or anyone beloved in the storm. I am truly sorry any inconvenience happened to you.

But…

Just listen…

I loved, I REALLY FUCKING LOVED New York seemed to be in ruins.

At least, this city needed a bath man.

Again: I am not making fun of anything by trying to be an arsehole. This simply is a hate thread about a city. As simply as that. Uhm perhaps a little bit includes those who love it.

I’m glad you cleared that up - I, for one, had my suspicions.

You’re incoherent enough that I’m not positive, but you seem to be an asshole.

I don’t believe you.

You’re just trying to cover your ass so you can make a thinly veiled pitting of the victims. Why didn’t you make this comment a week ago?

You’re a worthless slug.

I looked up “BAWWWW” in the German dictionary and there’s no “BAWWWW” in here

I meant, it seems like many people are annoyed at my thread and comments. I feel like I did something wrong. But I still feel _the_ hate. How can we understand each other?

We understand you. You’re an idiot taking happiness in other people’s abject misery. Please STFU. Or demonstrate some real guts and repeat your idiotic remarks in Breezy Point or SoHo.

If you’re not trying to be an arsehole, you’re doing a poor job.

We can’t. Understanding the incomprehensible, while not necessarily impossible, is most certainly undesirable under this circumstance.

If your join date was today I would be convinced you were a spambot. Somehow, it is not, and you are not, though your writing says you oughta be a bot.
