Today we’ve secretly replaced the water used to brew **DrLoveGun** ’s coffee with urine from the cat next door. Let’s see how this drama queen handles it…

Meh. As long as I’m still a laughing stock among my family and friends, that’s all that matters to me.

You know, having myself been accused of any number of bizarre practices, beliefs, and lies, your ire at being merely seen as a moron over here and an idiot over there is indescribably hilarious.

Then you try to link the anon journals over here.

Then you fly into a litany of insults, most of which you wouldn’t have thought of, were you NOT an avid reader - and, likely as not, anonymous poster - on the anon boards.

I very highly recommend getting yourself a Livejournal ([www.livejournal.com](http://www.livejournal.com)) and getting your other half a Livejournal as well. Put yourselves on each other’s friends lists and you’ll be able to argue back and forth about your petty spousal problems in “public” without holding the SDMB hostage to your depressingly amusing play about the flaws in interpersonal relationships.

Hell, join the SDMB LJ community and the people who read ITS friends list will STILL be assaulted by your self-centered need to air your personal problems in public, so you’ll still get the bass-ackwards ego strokes on which you’ve apparently become dependent.

What gets me is that the rant isn’t even really dope specific. Sure there are dopers here that are into D&D. Posts in this thread prove that. But it’s not as if it’s a huge topic here. There isn’t even a thread about d&d on the front of CS.

We do have quite a few comic book geeks, movie geeks, tv geeks, and video game geeks. There are even a few foodies running around. You could even go really big and refer to us as a bunch of pseudo-intellectuals who aren’t nearly as smart or as wise as we seem to think we are.

Nope. All we get is the same old tired “D&D can’t get laid won’t go outside” routine. I guess we just aren’t worth the effort. ☹ _sniff_

Gee **DrLoveGun** , have you ever considered that the public pittings of your personal life are just, well, boring and a little sordid?  
Personally, I find your posts about your married life trite and trivial rather than amusing.  
The foibles of Ink and DRG are neither especially entertaining or unusual.  
Just more petty squabbling.  
Is your marriage so fragile that you desperately need the attention of strangers to keep it going?

Let me guess:

You fucked up again. Now you’re getting yourself flamed so **inkleberry** will come rushing to your defense, and it’ll be the two of you against the world all over again.

You really need to do some work on your life. I would suggest you put your energy into that for the near future. 'Ta.

Wouldn’t it be funny if this were **inkleberry** logged in as her husband, trying to get him banned because he didn’t take out the trash or something?

Great googly moogly that was a hilarious OP. **DrLoveGun** is apparently attempting to poke fun at all of us for being lame while posting one of the lamest pit OP’s in the history of this forum.

Whooeee, this thread is gonna be good readin’. C’mon, **DrLoveGun** , post some more! I need some more laughs this morning.

And just by way of being semi-serious for a moment. Hey, Doctor “Stupid” Gun, I am who I am. If I and others who post here are too lame for you … leave. Duh.

I think that if there’s a sorry factor to the board, it’s just how often people complain about one another. I think yesterday the first five threads were of the sort, “so-and-so, you suck.” At least you are efficient, with the scattershot method, and don’t feel a need to dress down each other poster as an individal.

Now, what are all the removed links? You don’t have to link back to them, but you make a man curious what is being sanitized, presumably for his own good. Is it porn? Personal websites? Other discussion boards? What?

Wha?

I have absolutely no idea what the hell anyone is talking about in this thread.

I just wanted to see a good, old-fashioned sack pitting. Those produce ones where you can’t tell which end opens? FUCK THEM TO HELL!

And they break when you put in two measly grapefruits. You’re right, they’re crap!

I also resent the accusation that I am a “sorry sack.” I’m really more of a mopey carton.

He was linking to the SDMB anonymous journal over at LiveJournal. Connections between here and there are discouraged for the same reason connections between this board and other message boards is discouraged, to the nth power.

So somebody has a blog and all he does is complain about the straight dope? Yawn.

It’s not on LJ any more. LJ shut 'em down. Which is funny in and of itself.

\<Johnny Carson\>I did not know that\</JC\>…that’s interesting. How inane and offensive do you have to be for LJ to kick you out of the neighborhood?
