One skinny little turd gets together with four or five other skinny little turds, but they’re still just skinny little turds.

I’ve told you that I’m not digging through 191 pages of garbage. Especially since you’ve already conceded that my point has been accurate, at least in some cases, and since **SkyWatcher** has already admitted that this thread is about bashing weird newbies.

You know, in these unintentionally comical situations of “everyone here is an idiot except me”, a wiser man might stop to reflect on who the real idiot is instead of further embarrassing himself. You do appear to be an obnoxious hateful asshole that nobody likes, and incapable of arguing in good faith.

If everyone around you seems to be assholes, maybe you’re the one with the problem?

Except I never said that. What I said is that you’re an asshole. Not a very smart asshole, no, but certainly not an idiot.

Talk about not arguing in good faith.

And the King handed each of his sons a skinny little turd and said “Break it!”. Which each prince did easily. Then he took five skinny little turds, and merged them into one large shit, and said “Break _that_!” Which they did, easily, because its shit.

“Fuck you smartass punks, fight it out when I’m dead!”

Hey, now!

He makes a plausibly supportable case for _Bedknobs and Broomsticks_ being a superior movie to _Mary Poppins_. I’m not saying that I’m persuaded, but I can’t dismiss the argument out of hand just because it was advanced by **Fenris**.

Of course they are arguing. You’re the one making bizarre statements with no logic or evidence behind them.

Says the guy who substantially altered my post to prove a demonstrably untrue point.

I’m not sure you know what the word _logic_ means.

Then demonstrate it.

Obviously you cannot, or else you would have by now.

Now cease your prattling while you look up the word “prattling” in the dictionary, should you own one.

It’s been demonstrated. Get any children or grandchildren in middle school you may have to read my previous posts for comprehension. Maybe they can explain it to you.

I don’t normally participate in this thread, but everyone go check out the new pee guy in Great Debates. It’s like performance art or something.

Your frustration is understandable, but technically it’s not really a hijack, IMO. You could look at it creatively in the following way. The purpose of this thread is to call out and ridicule trolls, assholes, ignoramuses, and other undesirable detritus. In the case of **GreysonCarlisle** , he is saving us the trouble by coming in here and unwittingly doing it himself. He’s engaging in a kind of self-referential performance art where he’s hilariously oblivious to the fact that he’s unintentionally pitting himself. Every time he rages and flails against yet another respected poster in his typical asshole-ish fashion, imagining that he’s Winning teh Internets™, he provides both free entertainment and proof of his own aggressive stupidity.
