I want to join this leg-humpathon. SfG is okay.

This is the lamest pit thread ever. Taking a break from the latest (and almost as lame) \*\*Dio \*\*pit thread?

I’m sure he meant it in the nicest way possible.

If no one that had a problem with her had the wherewithal to start a pit thread then they really didn’t need you to instigate one.

Ever seen those pit threads that turn and end up as a pitting of pitter? Well, stick around

Wurd.

Empty cursing aside, ‘let’s you and him fight’ is pretty poor form.

Although I have to admit that now that I’ve reread the OP, I see that it was more directed at **Guns** ’ detractors than her specifically. Still, poor form.

+1

The only other times I’ve actually noticed her name, I tended to side with her, though in general I tend not to notice names when reading posts.

I like her. Just like any other poster I don’t read everthing she writes but she’s funny. I come here for entertainment, she entertains me.

Shot From Guns - cool poster  
Cheshire Human - real douche

In that post, she directly challenges 1 poster - **Siam Sam**. I certainly don’t see her making a wider accusation “throughout” the thread. Are you too lame or gutless to actually name some names?

Simpsons reference: IIRC, Ralph Wiggum saw Principal Skinner and Mrs. Krebapple making out and the story came out with some of his usual weirdness.

Smart, amusing and right about 95% of the time in threads I see her in. I haven’t seen her whine, just be abrasive. Which is a quality I respect.

I like her in the WoW threads. I roll my eyes at her in the ATMB threads. I don’t often notice her elsewhere. Since ATMB is easy to ignore, I’m pretty pro-SFG overall.

What the fuck is wrong with you people? This is a Pit thread, not a love-in. And if it’s a love-in, why am I not being hotly sexed up _right fucking now_? And where’s my fucking cocaine?!

Aw, **bucketybuck** , don’t be sad just because being an abrasive cunt has gotten me more admirers than you’ll ever have, even if you visit a puppy mill with a crate of Snausages and two arms full of love.

One of us has been a well liked, successful moderator in a very large, active community and is therefore reasonably qualified to make statements about what is good or bad moderation. Hint: it’s not you.

C’mon, join meeeeeeee. It’s \*so much fun \*to have at least one place in your life where you can say exactly what you wish you could say to people’s faces.

Fifty posts of people calling me “she” and you \*still \*misgender me and add an semen joke? People who skim an OP and then rush to post shouldn’t be throwing premature ejaculation stones.

I might not be able to put a finger on your general posting style or opinions, but I can say that I recognize you as someone who’s not a moron, or at least not frequently enough a moron that I categorize you as one.

In fairness, you have given no indication that you are kinky for middle-aged conservative males. But if you are…uh…How YOU doing?

I’d love to visit a puppy mill. I’d like to see what kind of flour they make from puppies. (beats throwing them in a river I bet)

Anyway, your first pitting is so cloyingly sweet I sorta feel sorry for you. So lick my hairy nutsack you crazy ass bitch.
