(Not bad, **silenus.** )

If the next words you type are, “Would you be mine?” I’m suing your ass for sexual harassment.

I’m amazed anyone did anything to your Mom, including your Dad. Was coercion involved?

No, no. That’s I _possess_ a much bigger tool. It’s called a Big Johnson. You own a T-shirt! Well, yours says, “Training Jock” but still…

To be fair, **Malacandra** , you’ve been amazed by indoor plumbing.

Idiot. Don’t you know your history?

We also bailed their asses out of WW1, kept up the military and economic support of Greece when England couldn’t afford it back in the winter of '47, and gave them billions in Marshall Plan money.

Wow! I’ve been waiting to dust off my “If it wasn’t for us, you’d be speaking German” retort.

And if you don’t like it, take the lift down to your lorry and get the f\*\*k outta here.

Your simply cannot point a finger without pointing three back at yourself, sir. BTW: I see they’ve updated your postings on the “Sex-Offender Registry.” How painful was your chemical castration?
