Well, these days that isn’t a sanitation issue. People who poop (or pee) on the street are monstrous **sex offenders** now!

Cashew, I read one line of your post, noticed it was quote-parsing, and declined to continue. I’m not sure if you were being earnest or deliberately ironic, but I’m laughing all the same.

Fair enough. My first exposure was her being a fucking retard in the Pit in exactly the same way as **Morella**. Could be she’ll keep her nose clean from here on in and graduate from “complete waste of meat” to “vaguely annoying.”

You \*can’t \*disengage from me. You’re stalking me around the site to complain about the way I post. Creeper.

Lies.

I’m proud to see you yourself have made the leap from “vaguely annoying” to “deliberately abrasive and obnoxious.” What’s the next step? Do you teach night classes? We could all stand to learn a lesson from you, madam. With time, perhaps I will follow in your ascending footsteps.

P.S. Your opinion might be taken more seriously if it wasn’t clear that “keeping one’s nose clean” entails simply “agreeing with Shot From Guns.”

Don’t worrry about it, **rachelellogram** , despite what she might like for you to believe, the Standard equation for Doper-value doesn’t really include **SFG** -approval as a significant factor.

Do try not to piss _me_ off, though…
