Indeed they do, and the pressure that led to the great Rebellion of Sauchieburn had been building for many years. The spark that finally ignited open revolt against the penny occurred when a distinguished Scotsman, weighed down with a motherlode of pennies and placks he’d received in change from a surly merchant who claimed to “have nothing else, sorry”, actually did lose his kilt in a spectacular wardrobe malfunction in full view of downtown Edinburgh. ---

I just wanted to point out a particularly stunning use of the old [“by disagreeing with me your saying I’m right” tactic](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20632334&postcount=349). It appears from that cited post – and most of the Witch’s previous ones – that the premier expert on American law basically wishes to inform us that the USA does not exist.

You reach down and flip the bear over on its back, **LSLGuy**. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over. But it can’t. Not with out your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that, **LSLGuy**? Because I’m a cruel heartless shit. Also because, at the age of about 6, I turned a box tortoise on his back just to see his underside and he promptly peed all over me. It was pretty traumatic at the time. I’m not gettin’ in range of another one. He can roast in the sun for all I care. In case you wonder, no I don’t have a clue on the literary/ pop culture reference you obviously intend. Sorry. ---

> [@snfaulkner](#): > > Tommy boy is back with some nonsense about[race and churches.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=843327) I like his innovative punctuation. I haven’t seen double periods used as punctuation before, but from the context it appears that they’re intended to be bullshit marks. The way an exclamation mark indicates an exclamation or amusement, the bullshit mark indicates that the preceding drivel was a total load of crap. Or maybe it’s supposed to be what follows the bullshit mark, like the Spanish inverted question mark. It’s hard to tell since everything this worthless cretin writes is bullshit. Maybe it’s supposed to indicate a break between regurgitations of bullshit. It’s pretty redundant but still, it’s a nice literary courtesy. I recommend that other posters wishing to post bullshit consider adopting the bullshit mark. ---

Agreed. In my decidedly non-expert opinion what we have there is a garden variety BPD female. It must be exactly as she says. Her mind cannot conceive of disagreement that isn’t clueless error. Her only response is to replay her screech louder and louder until you understand or capitulate. She’s only unusual in which particular topic she’s fastened onto.
