I have never, and will never start a thread with the title “The Liar’s Thread”.

I mean that sincerely.

I despise every last one of you and think you have nothing of interest to say.

I’ve never responded to a thread with the topic “The Liar’s Thread.” Yeah, that’s the ticket, never done it, never will. That’s what I said and I’m sticking to it. And you can’t make me say anything else about it.

I just withdrew $1.5 million from my savings account to buy fatherjohn a fleet of SUVs to satisfy his envy.

I am not addicted to this place and can leave anytime I want to. I’d also like to add I love my job because I feel so fulfilled with it’s supreme importance to society each and everyday.

I am not a happy person. I don’t like my job. My marriage is miserable. Life sucks.

I hate puns. and the people who make them. I think that “pot calling the kettle black” is the height of the witty retort, and I’m always impressed by those who use that phrase and it’s variations.

I have no intentions of finishing this CC & 7 I am drinking. The very smell of it makes my stomach roil.

I will quit smoking right this minute. I can’t even bear to look at my open pack of Marlboros.

My children are the most well-behaved, delightful human beings on the earth and do all of the housework without me ever having to lift so much as an eyebrow in their direction.

I loathe the internet, computers and anything of that ilk. How anyone could have any interest in these things is beyond me.

I also despise reading. I burned all the books in my house last night. In fact, I have forgotten how to read, thankfully.

I will also, never as long as I live, post to this board again. What would be the point, since I can’t read anyway??

After spending a grueling month in training (bet none of you even noticed that it was my pet sugar glider posting, did ya?), I will be flying the top secret space cruiser “manhattan”\* out to the rings of Saturn to start negotiations with the Starseeders.

Perhaps if you fawn appropriately, I will see that you are not “volunteered” as a host.

I told you I’d be back.

I’m just going to say this once. I’d never post on a thread that was entitled “The Liar’s Thread”. It would be a meaningful and fulfilling thing to do and I’m only interested in the dull and mundane. I’d never return to the board with the soul purpose of checking a thread called “The Liar’s Thread”. And you can take that to the bank.

1. Hi my name is Frank and I’m a dueling addict.

2. I made myself laugh so hard I spit coke all over the monitor.

3. I swear I thought the title of the thread was liar liar pants on fire.

4. Coke spitting is hysterical.

5. Hi Opal

6. I am deeply concerned that California is having electricity troubles while Las Vegas has power dripping off the walls and flooding out into the streets.

7. I do not understand “small little words” but prefer grandiose language and my all time favorite is when someone gives me kind advice on my punctuation/Grammar it shows me that you care and probably have a well-rounded life this short sentence as an example can go another mile without and punctuation required I will not even end it with a period.

I have never eaten chocolate in my entire life, and I never will.

The reason I never post in GD is that I am _too_ good at debate, and could win every argument with only one post. I don’t want to spoil the fun.

Did I mention that I am a genius?

I love rap, hip-hop and pop. I wish I could dress as snazzily as Jennifer Lopez.
