Sorry guys! I know we got a little carried away. I’ll do my best to have no more flirting in the pit. I do solemnly swear to only curse, spit, and hurl nasty barbs at my fellow posters. ---

_ **Who** _ did you say would be voted biggest flirt next year, Grace? And you thought _I_ was bad. Sheesh! This is the PIT for chrissakes! Get your smarmy, so-sweet-I-wanna-puke butts into the nearest Motel 6 before someone takes a shotgun and puts you out of our misery. Your inappropriate behaviour in this forum, not to mention your hijacking a perfectly awful suck-up job by what was once the master of all suck-ups, aha, is outrageously unacceptable. Lynn, I have to apologize for my friends. They must be on drugs, that’s all I can think. They’d know better if their minds weren’t so freakin’ fried. And aha, the _least_ you could do is make a half-assed effort to provide the woman to whom you’re sucking up with the object of her desire. Pssst, I’ll give you a hint… Lynn, oh masterful Queen of The Pit, I hereby offer you the following gift if you will welcome me to your most awesome forum - [Your Gift](http://www.godiva.com/godiva_assets/prodimg/32.jpg). I hope it provides you with many, many psychic cyber orgasms. ---

Listen lady, I don’t need to hear your crap.

Don’t be suggesting them Godivas…we ain’t got no Godivas here in my town…this town is so small, we don’t have a village idiot so we take turns…I think it is my week too.

Dry & Grace: a “little” flirting is certainly OK- but, you have hijacked this thread all the way to Libya. And, as long as this is the PIT, and we are here: would you two get rid of those ridiculously long sigs? They take up room & waste bandwith, and are narcissistic as hell. (mandatory butt kissing) to take the Thread back on the track: I think Lynn is a wonderful Moderator, and much too classy to deign to greet Ahoo. ---

While your reprimand may have been warranted at the time, it isn’t now. I apologized for my behavior in the topic YESTERDAY. Read the damn posts before you jump all over someone. As far as my signature lines goes, I’m keeping it until someone with a little more authority asks me to change or modify it. So unless Ed Zotti raises your posting status from member to moderator you can just BITE ME! ---

Grace: if you apologized for your flirting, I’m sorry. But I did not see it above. In fact, I posted right after you two’s last flirt here. And about the Sig: I don’t have to be anyone but a member to ask. Like you said, if you don’t want to, I can’t make you, but you might have some thought about the other posters here. Hey, they WERE great Sigs, but you guys post a LOT, and we hafta read them over & over & over & over & over & over & over & over… I’m not attacking you guys, in fact some of your posts have given me quite a chuckle, but lighten up. ---

> [@](#): > > \*\* > Dry & Grace: a “little” flirting is certainly OK- but, you have hijacked this thread all the way to Libya. > \*\* But considering we were in the BBQ Pit [aka “Hell” :mad:] to be begin with, Libya’s actually an improvement! 🙂 To be serious for a second, I’ll hijack a thread on occasion (who won’t?). But I try to at least brings back on track, and a little more likely to hijack a thread that’s clearly dying out, or at least slowing down. This one definitely appeared to be slowing down/dying out, so I don’t feel too bad about it. > [@](#): > > \*\* > And, as long as this is the PIT, and we are here: would you two get rid of those ridiculously long sigs?

Perhaps if more of you people were nice to me, I wouldn’t cling so desparately to my sig.

However, you, my boy, have pissed ME off big time, you arrogant windbag–I’ve taken notice of your debating style in Great Debates, and I can pretty much sum up your M.O. as follows: “He draweth out the thread of his verbosity finer than the staple of his argument” –Love’s Labor Lost, Act 5, scene i Actually, I’m kidding. I admire your debating style quite a bit. But then, as they say: “The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose.” –Merchant of Venice, Act 1, scene iii 😉 ---

You know Lynn, seeing how Aha had to sit by and watch his topic get hijacked, I think you should reward him with a welcome. He could’ve come in here and flamed me up one side and down the other but being the kind, handsome, and intelligent gentleman that he is, he didn’t do it. So I think you should grant him the one little request. What’s one teeny tiny greeting? Just think how happy it would make him. Come on Lynn. Would ya do it? Would ya huh? Will you do it now? How about now? Please?! ---

Lynn, as a high-minded, battle-scarred veteran of the SDMB I _strongly_ suggest that you ignore any whimpering importunities from aha that aren’t accompanied by quality chocolates. I mean, Godivas to start, then \*excellent Belgian chocolates, a few Swiss offerings just for variety and then some assorted samplers just for laughs. In “value-provided” terms I believe the concept equals out to “earnest money”. It’s _important_ to be earnest! Just ask GB Shaw! ::duck, runs:: Besides, it’s such a great opportunity to break Hoo-ha in for the daunting task of bribing AlphaGene. Of course this is the same man who auctioned off his wife, beloved consort and companion in life to Dr. Watson. Alpha will demand…what? Human sacrifice? Tossing a newborn litter of kittens into a volcano? _Tossing a case of Asti Spumante into a volcano?!_ The mind reels. I can’t wait to wait to watch.
