Ignorant, insular Christofascist! :mad: Didn’t it occur to you that, oh, say, another religious group might have accepted the story of Eve as tradition for _centuries_ before Christianity was thought of? Here’s a hint: ;j

That’s because you people are pushing the bounds of perversion by trying to come up with new ones all the damn time. How disgusting.

This, from a man who’s never had a sexual experience in his life without hearing the words, “No, daddy, no!”

As a taxpayer, I applaud your attempt to relieve us of some of the burden you and your family have previously placed on the welfare system.

Why, do you _still_ think I’ll go to bed with you? You should be used to rejection from women (and sheep) by now.

People who run whorehouses for the Mob don’t pay taxes. You’re confusing taxes with protection money, you dolt.

**marque elf.** As a welfare cheat who mostly restricts his larceny to fraud in your real life name and your retirement accounts, I thank you. Today… truce.

You know I’m gonna go back to robbing you blind tomorrow.

Pshaw. Any Pitting that starts off, “This is a bitting in name only,” isn’t much to worry about.

I thought YOU pitted me. You had my respect for a half-second. I was even gonna unleash my fabled sack of Yo Mama Jokes.

Yeah, real nice making [assumptions](http://gabbyhooch.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/cousin_itt.jpg).

You aren’t getting out of this random Addam’s Family reference just by tossing your race card into the ring, jackass. Or should I say ‘Cousin Jackass?’

Store brand antiseptic mouth rinse is just as good as the name brand Listerine, and at a fraction of the cost!
