Hey, hey, HEY! It was simply too good to miss 🙂

(Although I’m surprised I haven’t been mentioned as a dipstick)

Hey, HEY! That’s enough of that huggy-boo-boo-kitty shit now! No compliments in the Pit, please. Some of us are trying to get our daily dose of bile.

Fuck you **Kamandi**. Why don’t you crawl up Jack Kirby’s ass and die a slow painful death. If you need some help accomplishing this, I have a shovel for you. Bastard!

What’s the matter with **dalovin’dj**?

He’s started a bunch of good GD’s lately.

Cut we newbie’s some slack - we’re the fun ones. We’re the one who walk in and start pushing buttons…

“What happens when I push this big red one?”… Duh.

Sometimes it blows up in our face. Believe me, I’ve had the soot-faced, hair blown back, wiley coyote-just-accidently-stuck-my-head-into-an-acme t n’t box- look before (as you probably have had).

Also, I think further classification of we newbies is in order.

Distinctions should be made between **dweebs** , **wackos** , **misunderstood flowers** (otherwise known as **ar-_tistes_** ), **dipsticks** , **chimp-like creatures with mischevious dispositions** , **boobs** , **clowns** , \***ass-fucking[/I} clowns**, **twats** , and **loonies**.

I hate to be labeled a **mule-felcher** when I clearly am **monkeyspunk**.

Ummmm guys. I know this is the pit but aren’t we usually _ **against** _ feeding the trolls? Is there any other point to thread aside from that?

However, I would have been mistaken. Carry on. 😃

I have to agree with CnoteChris.

So when we are done compiling this list of **dipstick posters** will we be starting on the list of **super hip posters**? Then maybe we can make a list of **super intelligent posters**. Eventually we could categorize everyone. :rolleyes:

A) I didn’t call anyone a total dipshit.

B) I haven’t paid much attention to irishgirl, so I guess I can’t give any examples of anything except to say that posters who **never** use proper capitalization are annoying as fuck. To me anyway.

Really, how hard is it to press the shift key every once in a while?

**Myrnalene** You’re a complete waste of space, a fucking troglodytic shit-for-brains useless mule-felching spunk monkey who has nothing of value to add to any conversation/thread/discussion/topic/issue or planet on which intelligent and decent people exist.

In truth, I have nothing at all negative to say about **Myrnalene** , but I just had to take pity and respond to her expressed wish. Go thy way in peace and be mediocre no more.

How has **Chas E.** not been mentioned yet? Every time I try to cut the guy some slack ('cause he’s not, strictly speaking, an idiot), he goes and makes me wanna shake some sense into him again.

I’d like to see where irishgirl and dalovindj have acted like dipshits.  
Seethruart is shaping up to be a genuine headcase. I mean the guy needs meds rather desperately.

xanakis and DJ7F50 just seem to wanna argue, just for the hell of it. This behavior can be construed as dipshitty.
