Incorrect.

Evidence that Epimetheus is a pedophile:
1.) Username from Greek mythology ** Not sure I see the connection**
2.) Multiple past convictions for buggering little boys Yah?, made up convictions
3.) Hate filled off-topic ranting yeah, racists tend to fill me with hate
4.) Name has same number of letters as “kiddie porn” …
5.) Name rearranged is “He ties em up” **My wife is very into being tied up… **
6.) Listed on Interpol’s sex offender registry **Interpol has a sex offender registry? **
Wow. So convincing!

Please don’t add things to people’s quotes when you are using the quote tags. No warning issued.

@Pit Rules

Quoting: do not alter words within quote tags beyond fair usage standards

Do not change quotes of other posters or off-board citations beyond fair usage standards. If you delete material, use either ellipses or descriptive tags (e.g., <snip>, [material deleted], etc.) to indicate you’ve done so. To add non-editorial explanatory material, use square brackets, which means things like [sic] or replacing a pronoun to make a partial quote clearer. If you add formatting for emphasis, please indicate you’ve done so, either in square brackets within the quote or immediately after the quote. Quote tags are for actual quotes only - don’t use them to paraphrase another’s argument or make a joke.

That’s weird, but ok, sorry. Guess I’ve been away too long to have remembered that.

Conclusion: You rolled a natural 20 on the goober scale…

Just stopped in to say that made me laugh. I think the word “goober” is funny.

I thought Obama was the antichrist, but not Hitler.

I figger folks are just funnin and it’s going over my head, or someone’s gonna pull out a firearm and go postal.

Either way, my drink’s Dairy Farm eggnog and spiced rum.

By the way, among dubious accomplishments that make me proud, I offer up this thread about Chinese internet censorship (particularly posts 13 and 28-34) that led some time later to a creation of mine being hailed as the omega of the worst of the LOLcats.

I haven’t been in the Pit enough times to have an opinion - other than the carpets a bit worn but the chairs sure are nice. Now, could you pass the popcorn this way a little? I need something to wash down with some rye.

Pah, excuses, excuses.

(For the humour impaired: Epimetheus was the Titan of afterthought, and the father of excuses).
