Updike and New Iskander, it's a twofer tuesday!

Are those predictions, or requests couched in somewhat stuffy verbiage?

'Cause if they’re predictions, I have my doubts as to their accuracy. :smiley:

I don’t grok… have I been whooshed?
I was attempting to describe his conduct in the thread so far.

No he won’t.

Take a lesson, Updike, that is how you handle a woosh.

Updike takes umbrage, not lessons.

Well he might, which is to say that it’s possible that, well, I mean, it could happen and…
Okay, I was wrong.

Isky has taken your point to heart and acted upon it.

I’d just like to say (and I hope this doesn’t count as a ‘lawnchair’ post) that this Pit thread is a thing of beauty. Kudos to all participants (including the Pittees, without whom this would not have been possible), but especially to FinnAgain. When I want to pit somebody (may the day never come), I hope I remember to take this thread as my inspiration.

No “might” about it. We’ve already proven he’s too dumb to understand even the most obvious of sarcasm, courtesy of the esteemed Tomndebb.

Awwww shucks.
~shuffles feet~

Which you didn’t do until King of Soup pointed it out you.

Which is precisely why I don’t take you seriously.

Ya don’t say? Is that why I thanked him for pointing out how it sounded and offered clarification?
Do you come up with these observations yourself, or is there an entire team of monkeys who assist you?

After standing on ceremony about people’s views and proof, don’t you think it’s just a little, oh, I don’t know, intellectually dishonest and janus faced to go and make yet another Red Herring post and conclude it with an Ad Hominem fallacy?

Oh, and, by the way … you going to address what you were Pitted for, you whinging coward?

Now that’s irony for you.

Are you still in highschool, then?

So, you’re not going to address what you were pitted for, you whinging coward?

By the way, I think it is important not to lose sight of the fact that Isky is still polluting the Dope with his idiocy. Simply because Uppy is doing his damnedest to win this year’s Twit Olympics doesn’t mean that we should ignore the other competitors.

So, thank you for pointing that out Rayh.

Wow, just wow. Wow!

I am awed by the blinding ignorance of our co-nominees for Anti-Doper of the year. Updike definitely takes the award this time around. Mainly because of it’s tendency to climb right on the cross at the first sign of trouble.

I do want to make one correction to a statement made by Updike:

About 50% of the US used to support President Bush. Now it’s closer to 35%, with Arnold Schwarzenegger and several other prominent politicans taking severe blows in the election a few days ago.

Good luck with your ideology, pal. It’ll get you really far.

I think you’re overpaying those monkeys.

I fail to see how a cite about a soldier suffering from severe beatings by his fellows has any relevance to the mind-numbig stupidity of the 2 igloo room temp IQ cretins pitted here. Can I add you to my, ‘Don’t mind them, they’re ‘Special’ List too?’

Once you get to high school, you’ll learn that it’s actually two words. Something to look forward to.

I must disagree with you on this one. I don’t think Updike is a coward. Whining, whinging, or otherwise. I think you nailed it from the beginning: He really is too thick to understand what he is being pitted for. He still thinks this is a high school put-down contest. The subtleties of the actual, you know, issues are just beyond his grasp.
