And not all old women go around spying on younger people. And some younger people apparently spy on old women since you seem to know every move these “old women” have been making. And I am in fact a cranky old woman and every time I see that thread title I get crankier.

I’ll stop soon, I promise! _sulk_

I just HAD to sell my device that electrocutes people over the internet to Diebold, didn’t I? God I just wanna electrocute your balls to death!

I’m adding a IRL rant on here; It’s pronounced ahv-u-LATION NOT Oval-ashun. Every fucking time you say it wrong I cringe inside and want to smack you. I’ve corrected you 5 times and now I just fucking give up.

Hands up: how many people are reading through this thread going “I know who _that’s_ directed at…and that one…and that one…”?

You just wanted to ask an honest question.  
_Riiiiiiight._  
You posted your shit-stirring screed poorly disguised as a question, and you got your answer.  
Then you ignored the answer and elaborated.  
And no one responded.  
So you ratchet up the hostility and post yet again.  
Lather, rinse, repeat. Look-if the only way you can justify your existence is to see your name in print, just print it out several hundred times and paper your walls with it. I’ll even spring for the ink cartridge.

Dear habitual ATMB poster:

If you are not a troll, you have severe issues with your father that you are trying to work out in a totally inappropriate way.

Uhh, you’re a cunt. You should die. Fuck you.

I wonder how many people hate me. I don’t like it when people hate me.

^Can’t post that anywhere but the Pit, where I’d be rightfully lambasted.
