That wasn’t just a Slack thing - Sam Stone does it too, for instance. ---

Walken: “Hello, stony man. Boy I sure heard a bunch about you. See, I was a good friend of Reed Richards. We were in that Negative Zone over five years together. Hopefully, you’ll never have to experience this yourself, but when two men are in a situation like me and Reed were, for as long as we were, you take on certain responsibilities of the other. If it had been me who had not made it, Mister Fantastic would be talkin’ right now to my son Jim. But the way it worked out is I’m talkin’ to you, Ben. I got somethin’ for ya.” _slaps Thing with a fish_ 🎃🐟 Grimm: **“IT’S CLOBBERIN’ TIME!!!”** ---

This is even more pathetic than the Pit thread directed at me. ---

I feel I established to my satisfaction in that thread that you’re a piece of shit. Regarding the subject of this thread, I don’t really feel I need to do anything. I rest my case. ---

I think that you’re a piece of shit because you want to kill every single cat on Earth. See, I can make up lies about you, too. ---

Yes, you’ve done it before. That’s what your Pit thread was about. ---
