Can you at least take it to a new thread to stop hijacking this one? Please?

I was minding my business and wasn’t even aware of this thread but somebody tagged me and had called me a liar. That’s the only reason I’m here.

I don’t give any shits. This is not a thread about abortion. Go start one about abortion if you want to talk about.

This is a thread about trolls, not a thread for trolls.

Maybe we should start one of those. You think that you’d be able to confine your trolling there?

I think the traditional Pit response to this hijack would be to begin offering recipes for dead babies.

Depends on whether or not you are one of those people that think that cilantro tastes like soap.

**Succulent Pie**

1 cup macaroni  
1/2 cup onion, thinly sliced  
1 medium can tomatoes  
1 cup cracker crumbs  
1 dead baby

Boil macaroni 10 minutes. While it’s cooking, fry dead baby long enough to fry out excess fat. Grease casserole with baby fat and put a large layer of macaroni in. Add onion and tomato. Add salt, pepper, and baby. Cover with remaining macaroni. Sprinkle top with buttered cracker crumbs. Bake at 325° for twenty minutes until baby is well done.
