Capacitor, you’re so mercifully free of the ravages of intelligence…and that’s what I LIKE about you. cap had to go in for a complete physical- they needed urine, blood, scat and semen samples…so he sent in a pair of his underoos. Pit enuf for ya, dude? 😃 ---

> [@](#): > > Listen up you ignorant troutsniffer, do I have to pants to convince you that I’m male? Hmmmm. Let me guess. Based on this sort of drool, I’m guessing English is not your first language, am I right? Notice how he said “I’m male” and not “I’m a man”? Think about it. > [@](#): > > Normally, I don’t feel the need to prove myself to leprechauns, but I thought I’d make an exception for your wee little self. Oh, he called me little! I’ve been maligned. What am I going to do now? That one really hurt, because I am in fact, a very little man. Boo-hoo. Oh no, not only that, he called me a leprechaun. I’m Irish, I should be all offended, and get all wounded about it. > [@](#): > > Interestingly, the sci-fi hunk-o-junk “Lexx” is on the TV behind me. It reminds me of our little green man–poor animation, bad dialogue, and no future. Man, this one really sucked, even for you. You realize that you are commiting two “I am a flaming dorkass” atrocities, right? 1. You’re alluding to sci-fi to try and flame someone and 2. You’re doing so by trying to poke fun at someone’s username. Both of these serve to clearly indicate that you have your thumb in your ass. You may as well wear a t-shirt that says “Kick me, HARD!” Tell you what: You go back to the Paul Reubens Institute of Higher Flaming and tell them you want your money back. I’m sure you got raped on tuition, so it’ll be a good chunk of change. Then, come back here and give it to me. I’ll use it to seed the collection plate for the “Buy Myrr Some Sac” fund. Just tryin’ to help. ---

Damn, Freak! Waking the dragon? Well, you are kind of like that guy in that book. He was a weak suck, too, and thought he was a bad ass. He would push his little sister around, and kick her ass all the time, and always tell her not to wake the dragon. You really do remind me of that guy. I don’t think I could flame you better than you flamed yourself just now. Thanks tech. But _pssst!_ Freak is my friend! we’re just havin a lil fun! And these other kids aren’t even approaching something that resembles an LED, let alone a flame. ---

And capacitor lives up to his name, discharging all of the energy stored in his little mind in a **ahem** brilliant **ahem** flash–only to fizzle away barely noticed. Such is the price of…well, I hesitate to call it genius… :rolleyes: Now go play with all the other kiddies. (glad to see Audrey’s here to back me up) bring it onnnn! ---

Oooh, I see Lexicon has mastered the art of sticking his fingers in his ears and shouting “I can’t hear you”. Most of use figured that out in grade school. ---

Hmmm. \ Let’s add up all the factors (this might get complicated, you may want to pack a lunch): 1. I replied to your post line for line. Well, according to the evidence, it would appear that once again, you make about as much sense as a monkey trying to fuck a football. Do you want to try again? Go ahead, I won’t hurt you. Try again, lil guy! You can do it! ---

Umm, Lexicon my dear… I know that. I don’t put smilies in my posts in The Pit if I am being totally serious. Freaky knows I am messing with him 😉 Sides I do want everyone to know if they do fuck with you, they are dead meat, HA! ---

yep, you sure did reply line by line. And each one was “I don’t care, I can’t hear you”. Dear sweet psychic-fucking Jesus in a gerbil wheel, is that all you’re capable of? Prancing around like a goatee-shod ten year old only makes you look foolish. ---

No, silly bastard, it wasn’t “I don’t care, I can’t hear you” it was “You’re a shmuck, stick to whatever you’re good at, because being a dick is not something you’re good at.” Your “flames” are 1. unfunny 2. unoriginal 3. baseless 4. petty and 5. watered down You really need practice! I’m willing to work with you as long as you want. So, go ahead, try again, I’ve got plenty of patience. ---

Lexicurdled, if you don’t step down and kneel like a good lil’ Monica I’m gonna womp on you like the red-headed stepsister in your post! Now run along like a good little bitch or I’ll kick your ass so high you’ll be kissing venus. I’ll play the bongoes on your kidneys and I’ll shake your head like a maraca and listen to the rattling of bird-feed. You fuckin’ bull fluffer. ---

And I have plenty of tolerance for twits. I get some sort of sick pleasure out of watching them leap around arrogantly; must be some sorta weird compulsion. But you see, there’s a difference between flaming and jousting…sometimes subtle, but not \* too \* elusive, even for the mental midgets among us. Though I’m afraid the bliss of your next round of chatter will have to wait till morning… ---

This is such a fucking love in. why dont you guys just get it together and quit flirting. yeah, I’m talking about you 4, Myrr21, Lexicon, Freak and Capacitor. There’s plenty of love threads in MPSIMS to toss each others salads in. ---
