If, on the other foot, you are suggesting my own ass, handed, and not by foot, but by hand, to me, then I would point out several other, posters, who would agree with me, on this point. . . . and I will add that I have went back and looked at all my own ass (and not the ass that I had had, but the other one, that that had had, as seen in my post [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=6313713&postcount=64), where I win the debate responding, which if you remember the 70’s was not the ass I had had, at least in that sense), and I can’t see where I didn’t not fail to score more than that other guy. ---

Notice my not use of comas theirby sloving the proble you have for me. I will rule on this tommorow when I have moar time. This pisses me of. I have shown on four occasions, [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=6336134) and [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/newreply.php?do=newreply&p=6336134) that I know how to make links so I don’t have to refer to prior posts I made without linking to what I was talking about when I made them I can just link to it and prove my point. People often think that using it can be bad but if in fact it is bad then being bad is no longer bad, just out of the norm and therefore the clam is substatinaited. ---
