My first pitting was such a letdown. It was all over too quickly. Keep working on it, Dutchman, and I’m sure you’ll develop the stamina for pitting that someone can enjoy. As for me, I’m going to sleep. ---

I also don’t see the basis for the OP’s statement in the other thread about the ages of the posters here. I dunno that I’d consider it “obnoxious”, but dodgy? Sure, why not? The labelling isn’t important, anyway. The _effect_ of Sharia law is uncomfortably close to fascism in any case. ---

[/QUOTE] Frankly, I don’t remember encountering you much until recently. Maybe I have, but it just didn’t leave an impression. If I have been calling you an idiot hundreds of times in the last several years, then I’m more perceptive than I give myself credit for. I think it’s more likely that you’re full of shit, though. Maybe you’re confusing me with all the other people who have been calling you an idiot over the years. ---
