That should end all debate. 🙂 Not only that, but I’m a teenager, so I know everything, making me more stubborn when people disagree with me.  
Want examples? I have stayed up into the wee hours of the morning doing homework the long way (i.e. the way I though of) because I have refused to do it the shorter, more common way.  
Or does that just make me stupid?

::looks away quickly, biting my tongue::\*

About this Taurus thing. I’m a Pisces and I wouldn’t consider myself to be all that romantic or sensitive. Sure, I’m a little over emotional sometimes, but I account that to my life, not my zodiac sign.

Anyway, I stand by my claim as the most stubborn person here. Now, we can keep this thread going forever or you can all just give up. The choice is yours.

_I’m kidding!_

My dear evil queen.

I am as stubborn as you. I shall not leave you here to win alone. We shall win this together.

No my Evil Queen. YOu and I shall share the title of most stubborn (we will be the last two to be fighting over it until the end of time) So, quit this crap about only you shoud bear the title of most stubborn rule with me at Castle Obstinate.  
Of course if you decide not to accept my Offer of co-rule. I shall just have to share the title with my swedish goddess Anniz 🙂

No, I wouldn’t be the ONLY one with the title. You’d have it too, it’d just be second most. I don’t see the problem with that.

What? You still don’t like the idea? ::sigh:: Well, maybe we could work something out. I suppose it wouldn’t be too bad to be “One of the two most stubborn posters”. What did you have in mind? What about everyone else? Would it really be fair for the two of us to decide without regard to the others?

Nah, I didn’t _really_ feel foolish. Just like, most the time that I post LoL, LMAO, ROFL, etc., I’m not really laughing. In fact, a lot of people type ROFL, but how would they be able to type if they were actually rolling on the floor laughing?

Or better yet, open a thread and have a poll (like they did for prom queen and male slut).

I mean, this is IMHO–why not put it up for vote?

Thank you, DRY. I was thinking this very same thing because, most likely, this thread will just go on and on forever. And I feel guilty about the post padding. (Really, I do.)

You feel guilty about post padding huh?

I registered on May 20th. I have 1270 posts.

You registed on June 18th. You have 608.

High five?

Yes, I very sincerely, honestly feel bad about this little post padding party we got going on here. Look at if for crissake! I’m every other post for like two pages. One would wonder, _If she feels so bad, why does she continue this behavior?_ Because I’m that damn stubborn.

Actually, except for these last few posts. I haven’t used this thread to pad.

That’s why I use flirting for.

My chief weapon is flirting.

Flirting and Shakespeare.

My two chief weapons are flirting and Shakespeare. And analmost fanatical devotion to sports.

My three chief weapons are…

Osip, I thought we had an agreement. We **both** walk away winners? What happened to all that?
