> [@cbawlmer](#): > > Except Cherry Vanilla Diet Dr Pepper. Like mother’s milk, I tell you. Is there really anything as over-rated as mother’s milk? What about our lactose-intolerant infants? Frankly, mother’s milk is so valued simply because fathers can’t make milk. Well sorry. Men can only do so much. Mother’s milk. Sigh. I’m tired of beating my head aginst a brick wall. And you wonder why fathers don’t feel comfortable here? What’s the point. You’ve all decided how you feel. Dang. I’m sorry. I’ve had enough. I’m leaving this thread until I post in it again. ---

> [@Draelin](#): > > Sure, completely leave out all the binary and hexadecimal people just because _you_ don’t happen to agree. Fascist. 2 + 2 _is_ 4 in hexadecimal, you brainless slut. Why don’t you LEARN how different bases actually WORK before you go off accusing people of being biased against them? Geez, is the American educational system that bad, that I have to teach everybody basic arithmetic now? When I was your age, we learned hexadecimal math in first grade, and wrote our own operating systems in second! And we had to build the computer to run the operating system out of transistors! And we LIKED it, too! Not like you lazy punks with your Microsoft Windows and your X-Boxes. ---

Transistors? F\*\*\*ing transistors??? I remeber when we had to use _valves_, and they used to blow up every 2 seconds. You are your lazy-assed transistors. GET A LIFE! ---

> [@Anne Neville](#): > > I’m wearing sandals with white socks.

If by _spaghetti_ you mean “some stranger’s cock” and _dinner_ you mean “crack money”, and _tasty_ “spent quickly” then I believe you, you worthless crack whore. That said, I really like polka. ---

Please let the pro-Bohemian dance crowd understand we don’t want to hear about this anymore. I don’t even like polka dots. Can you say boring? Guess you really like watching paint dry as well. And why do all these dance names have to end in “a” anyway? Grr!
