Admit it, you’re green with envy that I was the 1st to use it. Go on you’re among friends.

Actually, I’m more envious of the poster who thought to mention Dorrance #5X Stainless Steel Hooks. Well done, **Geobabe**! Nice blast from the past.

[QUOTE=tomndebb]  
No. Your name means “famed warrior of no consequence” in bad German and misspelled English. Had you meant an attempt on a clever presentation of the Latin “Lucifer,” you should have tried “Lou Siffer” (or, better, “Lou Kiffehr” or “Lou Chiffehr”), which avoids both the extraneous syllable of Louis as well as the effete final “e” and the wrong initial vowel sound in Cyphere.

Better luck in the future.

If you fuck a pussy, does that count as fucking a woman? I mean a real one, not one of them latex ones you can get. Not that I’d know anything about that…

You know that anything goes in the Pit, right? Except wishing harm, threatening death, posting hate speec, active trolling, altering quote beyond fair usage standards, and the like.

Was it any of those? 🙂

Naw, it was along the lines of setting up the lawn chair and trying to goad another poster.

Then you still got it wrong, halfwit. The character in _Angel Heart_ was named Louis Cyphre, as already posted. Very much like the character in [Falling Angel](http://www.amazon.com/Falling-Angel-Dead-Letter-Mystery/dp/0312957955), actually. That’s one of those small rectangular objects called “books” that literate people enjoy spending time with.

You’re a fucking idiot. Here is why:

1. There was nothing to “bite.” Nothing. I edited the original content out of that post.
2. You weren’t the one I wanted to rile up.

In conclusion, you’re a moron and an attention whore. Enjoy your five little minutes of SDMB bee-buzzing fame, wank your pitiful, attention-starved tool and sleep the gentle slumber of the mentally unencumbered boob.

In the interest of full disclosure, I don’t think Louis paying the $15 will make us care, either.

Also, Bryan, I think he just called you Dan Rather, though he’d’ve been better off calling you Koppel  
[/QUOTE]

Yes, but if he had paid it’s just as easy: You’re the one who paid the 15 bucks. If you don’t like it, quit bitching and leave.
