What I doubly detest, I shall not eat. What I detest is feces, and I will not eat it. Excrement, I will not consume it. It shall not fall from my belly, it shall not come near my fingers, and I will not touch it with my toes. “What will you live on” say the gods and spirits to me, “in this place in which you have been brought?” “I will live on seven loaves which have been brought to me, four loaves are with Horus and three loaves with Thoth.” “Where is it granted to you to eat?” say the gods and spirits to me. “I will eat under the sycamore of Hathor, for I have placed my portions there for her minstrels” _Egyptian Book of the Dead, first part of Prayer 189; For preventing a man from going upside down and from eating feces._ ---

I’d say “Goodbye, you dumbass”, but it appears you haven’t actually left, so my hopes are dashed. ---

Longer answer: You didn’t even leave. Oh well. If you do: Goodbye, you dumbass. You were always one of the bigger asshole posters who believed your opinion mattered more so than anyone else’s, when you were really just one of the biggest whiny, crybaby shitheads who took to regular dishonest and an assholic debating style. Oh, look, needed more attention so you go and post a link to this thread in [THIS one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20380246&postcount=21). Attention whore much? You’re such a weasel of a poster. A truly magnificent ass of one. And yet, here you remain like a festering boil because you’re too much of a shithead to say you’re leaving and actually mean it. No…instead you just want to rile people up and be an overdramatic numbskull fuckstick. Have fun. PS: Yes, it’s all a conspiracy against you. Idiot. I’m just part of the “militia”. Here’s your tinfoil hat you fucking moron. ---
