I’ve been trying to figure something in my head, and maybe you can help me out, yeah? When a person is an asshole, as you _clearly_ are, do you know that you’re an asshole? Maybe you’re just sitting around, reading _Mein Kampf_, masturbating in your own feces. Do you just stop and go, “Wow! It is amazing how big an asshole I really am!”? Yeah, do you guys do that?

Apologies to David Fincher

I’ll never look at an “@” the same again.

Well, we were just kicking the troll around in part for putting some German phrases in his posts and then he claimed he’s not German and then I posted a modified quote from _Seven_ and then Simple Linctus posted some NSFW ASCII art and then I noticed the man’s nipple was made from an “@” symbol and then you asked what’s going on.

Pretty standard pit thread, really.

I suppose the asshole could be Austrian… They’ve done a pretty good job of translating their assholishness across cultural boundaries, have to give them that much credit. :dubious:

**Simple Lintus**. No matter the OP is a troll and an ass, you can’t post a NSFW offensive ascii graphic on this board.

This is another official warning.

“behind shower” = “douchebag” is what I’m thinking.

I didn’t see what **Simple Linctus** posted, nor am I familiar with his/her posting history, so my comment did not concern him or your actions towards him. I was speaking to the phenomenon of at least one poster getting caught up and illustrating the object of trolling whenever such a thing happens, and gently asking others not to take the bait. Thanks for asking for clarification.

That would be it - according to my neighbor at least.

I have never been to New York, and so far as I know have no ties to the place. About all I know about it is what I see in the media.

That said, yes, if you’re rejoicing in a natural disaster and human suffering, you ARE an ass.

I’m hearing the title of this thread as a douchey sentence suddenly cut short by the “Inception” sound effect:

“I pit New Yorkers who --”  
BAWWWW!!

If a hurricane gets him this excited at the misery of New Yorkers, he must’ve masterbated like a motherfuck for WEEKS after 9/11. The thought of it still probably gives him a stiffie.

You know, I heard that a lot of Jews in NYC stayed away from work on 10/30. Who do you think warned them? I’m no conspiracy nut, but I’m just saying.
