I prefer the menthol id.

I think she’s fine and dandy but can be _really_ fucking shrill.

Anyone described as both strident AND shrill is aces in my book. Keep shooting, SfG.

Wouldn’t that make her _Stridentill_? Sounds like a breath-freshening chewing gum that not only whitens your teeth but also gives you broccoli farts.

I’ve chosen not to STFU in spite of the tempting invitation, but I don’t have a particular problem with **Shot From Guns**. She’s no whinier than the rest of us, as far as I can see.

Hey cock cosy, let’s you and him fight threads are for lazy asses. Someone here smells like farts and it’s not SFG.

Please don’t call other posters “cunts.”

I saw **Shot From Guns** in the closet making babies and I saw one of the babies and then the baby looked at me.

She was making babies and then you saw one? That’s a mighty fast gestation period. Was it a magic closet? I don’t get it. 😕

I don’t have a problem with **SFG** , sometimes she’s over the top and other times I don’t notice her.

Hey **Cheshire Human** , were you ever going to get back to [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=584529) you flounced out of?

Never herd of him, if he’s shot from guns, does that mean he’s blown his wad?

She’s deliberately brash and is certainly never backward in coming forward, but I’ve never really considered her a whiner.

_ **I’ve** _ got no problem with her. Other posters seemed to. She told them “take it to the pit”, they didn’t, so I gave them the opportunity. If they take her up on it, great. If not, then they should STFU everywhere else. End of my active involvement in the issue.

I don’t know who SfG is but I agree this thread was started just to get other people fighting. That, and seeing the grace exhibited by the OP in the jet fuel thread referenced by Richard Pearse, leave me with only one conclusion - Cheshire Human’s a real asshole.

All I can say is that she’s apparently never been a big enough douchebag for me to mentally categorize her as one of the few names here that I register as an individual. She’s part of the great anonymous mass of Dopers to me.

I like her. She can be outspoken and loud and obnoxious, but she can also be pretty sharp and on the ball.

I’ve already done my venting about SFG. I certainly don’t consider her a whiner (any more than anyone else) and 99% of the time, she cracks me up. (for instance, going after Rand Rover in the pro bono thread was hilarious.)

Hell, if real people in real life bugged me only 1% of the time, I’d be pretty happy.
