[QUOTE=Operation Ripper] It’s spelled “Choctaw” biotch! [/QUOTE] In the VERY off chance you’re trying to imply that you are a Choctaw indian, well, hopefully you aren’t a representative sample of the tribe. I am in awe of someone who invests so much energy into making sure his personal opinion is known. As that’s what it is, a personal opinion. Right up there with folks that think black folks are born criminals, imo, but that’s a whole other thread, I suppose. ---

[QUOTE=Operation Ripper] Not if you got a tatt, douche! [/QUOTE] So what is it I’m pretending to be, and how do you know I’m not it? Your combination of “I live in my parents’ basement and have no one to talk to” attitude and “I know everything” sarcasm has once again left me baffled. Wanker. ---

[QUOTE=Operation Ripper] What the fuck? What the fuck? Why get a tatt if it doesn’t matter what it means? Goddamn. [/QUOTE] Because some people get them for the asthetic value. I wouldn’t care what it meant as long as I liked how it looked. If I were to get a tattoo, which I’m not. ---

Say, I just remembered…Chuck Liddell has Japanese characters tattooed on the side of his head. Make sure next time you see him you tell him what a douchebag he is! ---

[QUOTE=Operation Ripper] Quinton “Rampage” Jackson beat me (him?) to it. Twice. [/QUOTE] Well, there you go! You should have nothing to worry about then! I wouldn’t let Jackson catch wind, though; he’s got more tattoos than Liddell, both in size and number. You’d have to personally inform him that he’s an even bigger douchebag than Liddell is. On the other hand, his tattoos do identify him as “God’s Street Soldier,” so you might be able to convince him he qualifies for your military deferment program. ---

[QUOTE=Operation Ripper] When I see him, I’ll go “Hey, aren’t you Quinton “Douchebag” Jackson?” He’ll get the message. [/QUOTE] That’s a good start, but it could lead to some confusion if there actually _is_ a Quinton “Douchebag” Jackson. I have a similar problem; I have the same name as Brad Pitt, and people are constantly mistaking us for one another. If you open with that, the conversation could go: You: Excuse me. Him: Yes? You: Aren’t you Quinton “Douchebag” Jackson? Him: Me? Oh, no. I’m Quinton “Rampage” Jackson. I know the gentleman you’re talking about, though. He works at the DMV. Much better to frame it as to avoid a possible case of mistaken identity, like this: You: Excuse me. Him: Yes? You: Aren’t you Quinton “Rampage” Jackson? Him: Why, yes I am. You: Are you in the military? Him: No, I am not. I am a professional mixed martial arts fighter, and current UFC light heavyweight champion. You: You’re a douchebag. Him: Well, sir, while I may not agree with your opinion, I shall defend to the death your right to say it! You: Thank you. If you see Chuck Liddell, please tell him he is also a douchebag. Him: You mean Chuck “Douchebag” Liddell, the telemarketer? You: No, not him. He knows he’s a douchebag. I mean Chuck “the Iceman” Liddell, the professional mixed martial arts figther and former UFC light heavyweight champion. Him: Will do, sir! Will do! Good day to you! You: Good day, douchebag. And everyone walks away happy. 🙂 ---
