I want to thank you for the roast here I 'm not worthy of such a special event but Thank you YOU ARE\* not even a caricature. You’re (note the spelling) a [caricature](http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/caricature) of a caricature. This whole (not [hole](http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/hole?s=t)) performance is a trolling threadshit. Go back to Yahoo or whatever fucking hole (not [whole](http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/whole?s=t)) you came from and brag about how you pissed off the libs at The Straight Dope. They’ll probably give you a medal (it might or might not be made of metal though). - [Abbreviated](http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/abbreviated?s=t) “you’re” as opposed to “your” which is possessive - “Is that your moronic post?” vs. “You’re a fucking asshole aren’t you?” Don’t hurt yourself (not “you’reself” which is [meaningless](http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/meaningless?s=t)) when you get to English tomorrow ask the teacher, after she gets done crying she’ll explain it to you. ---

Zakalwe i realize now you were not having fun burning me, I see in your last post your distinct playing with word spelling leads me to believe your serotonin reuptake inhibitors are causing an imbalance, I’m concerned for you. would you please see your physician soon for an evaluation. ---
