It’s a popular sport in which people on two teams attempt to score a six-point goal in a net called a “par” using hockey racquets. The first person to lose a tooth, wins.

Like hockey. And hockey fans. And Todd Hockney. And hackneyed clichés.

Hahaaaa!

Hey, I thought it was considered poor form to post PMs. Now, excuse me, I’m off to ignore my review list and review my ignore list. Good day.

No, It’s like that 343 Guilty Spark, from the Halo universe. He didn’t turn out to be very nice either.

Hey, I thought it was considered poor form to post PMs.

[quote]

I thought so too … until now. His PM was in such poor form that it precludes any action on my part.  
What was his intent anyway? Does he expect a reply?  
OK then, I may or may not still act like this considering the situation.  
Yes, I may have grown up somewhat over 2 years.  
I do still threaten people who like the same sport as me and call them dishonest, especially if they fans of the other team, but doesn’t everyone?

I’m truly amazed that he has patched things up with everyone else, but upon further reflection, I think I would prefer to remain on his ignore list.

Note to readers: If you’re going to look up “turtling” in Google (from the other thread), make sure you include the search term “hockey”.

Either a neo-nazi existentialist science fiction fan, a twenty-two year old bereaved cat fancier, a twenty-two year old existentialist science fiction fan, or a bereaved neo-nazi cat fancier, obviously.

**pkd88** and **Sparky812** are an older married couple. This is how they take their aggressions with one another out.

From reading the OP (and the post within that was linked), I’d have to say: Indubitably.

But then, AFAIC, the majority of sports fans in general are massive scrotumheads.
