Jackals of the Dope, I pit you!

[Klaatu]

Thanks, SA, I will take my own shit but I won’t carry water for the rest of you dumfucks.

[Starving_Artist]

Ah, crap! Things are moving too fast and furiously apparently for me to avoid being a dipstick myself. The first paragraph, Klaatu, was aimed at you. The remainder was to have been aimed at you-know-who. It appears I got offtrack in bouncing up and down reading who wrote what in which thread while at the same time referencing links to some harmless quote of mine in the past that he took umbrage at and forgot where and to whom I was posting and neglected to address the rest of the post to him.

Sheesh, how humiliatin’!

Yeehaw!

[Klaatu]

I can dig it man.

[Starving_Artist]

But can you surrey?

[Starving_Artist]

And as an aside, I stood next to Marilyn McCoo in an airport gift shop once in 1971. A beautiful, beautiful, almost heart-rendingly beautiful woman…even moreso than she appeared on television.

Oh, and did I mention she was beautiful?

“Got ilk?”

That was funny you fucking dolt.

Thank you.

[Starving_Artist]

Hah! So he’s a plagiarist as well!

I thought that seemed unusually witty for a dolt such as him.

I should have known the real dolt was you.

[elucidator]

Ah, well, we all are, all us girls on the street, no better than we should be. Vonnegut I borrow, Wilde I steal, Twain, plunder wholesale.

[Hamadryad]

Girls, girls - you’re ALL pretty!

If you’re in the fight, you’re game. And this is a fight. The threads we were talking about were not fights like this. People were insulted viciously because of their opinions or their posts and they did indeed get ‘dragged into the Pit’ whether they wanted to be or not. I’m here by choice. And I will still not use anything like the language you and your little friends here like to use because I think it’s disgusting. I may think you an idiot and say so. That’s not anything like the hateful things people said about people who didn’t start Pit threads of their own.

@Quiddity Glomfuster

Now who’s riding with Don Quixote? It’s pretty clear that some folks in this thread are comprehension-challenged. It’s pointless to continue to try to make oneself understood since the lights are not on in their top storeys. Time to climb off the donkey, SA

You are, of course, most correct.

I admire your ability to let this thread go. Here’s hoping I can do the same.

But in (hopeful) closing, cheers Quiddity. I know our newfound friendship is probably doomed not to last, given our politics (and my language), but I’m enjoying it while it’s here and I want you know I meant every word I said regarding the ways in which I admire you. As I said to Heffalump earlier, the world would be a better place were more like you.

And on preview, quite so, luci. I’ve done the same meself. I don’t believe I’ve taken unattributed bows, however, on those occasions when I’ve chosen to coast on someone else’s wit.

And on further preview: Aw, pshaw, Hamadryad, I bet you say that to all us girls. (But then you did just say as much didn’t you?)

Flattery will not avail, the “dinner and a show” minimum remains in force. Unless you have a quarter…

I think I’m going to cry. Can I get this framed?

You’re probably right, but it does my lil’ heart good to know there’s a few souls with similar views on how humans should treat other humans. Folks like you and H&R (and a few others) are in my good books - sadly, they seem too rare. Thanks much for hanging in and for your kind remarks. This is Auto’s thread - he may choose to carry on. Me, I’m gone, too.

For the record, how you think people should be treated: nice if they agree with you or aren’t arguing against you, snottily and like shit if they dare try to correct your wrong ideas or debate your points. Yes, sounds like a great standard for how humans should treat other humans. :rolleyes:

Me, I’m gone, too.

We can only pray for such good fortune.

[RedFury]

@elucidator

Thank you.

Kudos to you 'luc, lord knows you can coin a phrase with the best of them but I didn’t know you had a patent on that one. I actually read it elsewhere and caught my eye.

Careful, enemy territory that makes The Pit rather lame by comparisom.

Considering the widespread unpopularity of the Iraq war, I daresay Bush would be far more popular than he is now had he listened to me and my ilk (got ilk?) four years ago.

Condescending?
Preachy?
Rude?
Disrespectful?

Well, ok. Glad that we could clear that up.

Honestly, I would get frustrated if I wasn’t so sure that you’re nothing but a troll.
