**ivnn1188** confuses those who _choose not_ to follow the rules with those who \*can’t \*follow the rules. Back to the basics for what’s-his-number.

So then I guess it’s just me that finds it utterly hilarious that full on blood feuds are being set in motion over which forum someone gets to write their pithy internet wit in.

What’s next? Pistols at dawn over who’s cooler, Gandalf or Dumbledore?

(my pithy internet wit works across forums … so it’s cool)

Trust me, it’s not just you. If you count the original **lissener** cat neglect in MPSIMS, this little non event has given rise to four different threads in three different forums. And everybody’s bitching.

I think that’s funny as Hell.

You suck. That’s his problem. It’s mine too.

In the meantime, there’s been a bloody skirmish going on for days now over whether Microsoft Word 2007 roXXorz or suXXorz.

Gandalf obviously. He can come back to life after he dies. Dumbledore, not so much.

Despite years on the Dope and claims of being a grad student, his posts often include “lol” - the trademark of a prepubescent girls everywhere… I don’t think I would let him wear the big boy pants, either.
