I once mentioned [Jessy Bulbo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fOwIswGfP0c) on the boards here, and Snowboarder Bo knew who [she](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSaN3KbyH6g) was, so that proves that he is hip and cool, regardless of one’s opinion of his catchphrase.

Oh for crying out loud, I’m not trying to bully anyone. I find it annoying, and said you should cut it the fuck out, **Bo**. If that’s your idea of bullying, then grow a thicker skin. Asking you to say, “dude, shut the fuck up about it already?” is not bullying.

Err, hold on yourself.  
I really don’t care if you, or anybody else likes me or not. This thread isn’t supposed to be about a popularity contest. I don’t hate the guy, I didn’t say he should be banned, or suspended, just that he should cut out that stupid phrase.

… said with no hint of irony whatsoever in a thread they started to complain about a person occasionally posting a goofy sentence.

I’m guessing the OP was meant to be a quarry query. I’m sure that his prey is praying that it will end well. At least his quarry showed up to defend himself. Ain’t English grand?

**Guin** do you need to vent regularly when you see a dog turd on the sidewalk ahead of you? Or do you manage to just step over it and keep walking?

At least complaining about the dog turd is not counterproductive.

What’s so hard about doing what so many of the rest of us do? It’s not like the whole sidewalk is impassable. Just a few turds easily able to be stepped over with no effort at all. As the saying goes: “don’t sweat the small shit.” Just scroll on past what they post and be happy.

Would you mind if, instead of banging your head, we just kinda…lop it off and throw it into the quarry?

Yeah, it’s kind of amusing in a befuddled kind of way that people can get so worked up about something so simple, especially considering that my use of it isn’t all that often. But no, I’m not cackling with glee over the need to defend myself from accusations of trolling or of calling people a cunt, etc.

Bullying? Really? Come on, this is just weird performance art, admit it already.

I’d have chosen masturbating for the fourth, fifth and sixth times over throwing stuff into the quarry, but YMMV.

I’d commit first degree murder and treason for a swamp.

To this day, I have only a pothole in front of my house (not really my house, I slum in a combo crack/whore house and pay my rent by turning tricks with snaggle-toothed crack whores, who for some reason always want to French kiss) that stays filled with radioactive industrial waste that oozes in from below, and I throw hamster turds into it all day. My hamster is dying from leukemia (thanks to the ionizing radiation), so pretty soon I’m not going to have anything to throw into my pothole, except for the last threads of my hopes and dreams…So…must be nice to be you!

But, I’m not complaining.

My shitty radiation just kinda laid there.

Ya know that meme about “No one knows you’re a dog on the internet”? I hope you’re not a dog, because if you were, right about now your humans would be thinking “Maybe it’s finally time to put ol’ **Knorf** down…”

Maybe you guys haven’t been bullied by **Guinastasia**? I’ve seen grown men, mercenary commandos with bayonet scars on their scrotums, who floss their teeth with barb wire, eat live scorpions for a snack…slink away from her, blubbering in tears and crying for their bankies!

That was my thought as well. The “quarry” thing is done just to yank people’s chains. It adds no value to any particular comment and annoys a number of posters on the board.
