> [@](#): > > _Um…could someone rewrite that last sentence for me so that it makes some damned sense?_ Why sure, li’l buddy; I’d be glad to paraphrase **Diane** ’s remarks for ya. You seem kinda thick, though, so I don’t know if you’ll get it, but here goes: **Diane** quoted _your_ comment from the OP (that’s “original post”) regarding the fact that **jubei2k** had never corresponded with you and should stop “codenscending” [sic] to you “like that.” **Diane** pointed out that your petulant little tirade, including speculation the **jubei2k** would probably follow up with some sort of immature one-upsmanship, was _in itself_ unwarranted condescension (please note the spelling for future reference), as it assumed attitudes or behavior on the part of _someone you’ve never met or exchanged comments with_. Since **Diane** used your own words to puncture your little baloon, that’s what she meant by “C&P” (it means "cut and paste). Now, is there anything else you don’t understand about the situation? I’d be glad to explain any aspect of this to you in simple language. ---

Um…you misspelled “balloon,” there, Xenodork. And “condescend” means to “assume an air of superiority,” not to “assume future actions from a person.” Now, is there anything else you don’t understand about the situation? I’d be glad to explain any aspect of this to you in simple language. As for you, Jube, I think that…oh, wait…I don’t care about you anymore. “Imaginary girlfriend,” huh? You wish, fuckwad. ---

> [@](#): > > Let’s see here, Jube says his stupid ass insulting comment, then you say, “Dude, lighten up. Stop your bitching. Rah rah, Jube. Flame him again.” I don’t take too kindly to that. I respond in a way that gives your big mouth some fucking pause, which, by the way, was extremely satisfying, and then YOU start whimpering about insults and how WRONG they are? Oh, sweet irony. I never told jubei to flame you. In fact, jubei hadn’t even insulted you at that point. What’s more, I was making what most people call **a joke** about the fact that he **didn’t** flame you. Get your facts straight. Insults aren’t wrong, when used in the right place. For instance, you don’t insult someone who’s trying to give you some advice. You don’t insult someone who’s asking for your help. However, when someone asks you for help, and then insults you for trying to help him, you are entirely justified if you insult him right back. And it would take someone a hell of a lot better than you to give **my** big fucking mouth some pause. ---

> [@](#): > > Are you still “absolutely consumed with anger”? Is your soul consumed with the flaming desire to push me off this plane of existence? Does it burn hotter than a thousand suns? 🙂 Shithead. ::holding back laughter:: And with this, jubei2k takes a big step up in my book of respected posters. Yeah, I know, I know – That and a quarter will get you a blowjob in Tiajuana. ---

> [@](#): > > _And “condescend” means to “assume an air of superiority,” not to “assume future actions from a person.”_ I see I’ll have to make my explanations _even simpler_ for you. \ However, if you don’t yet understand how all that pissy boohooing about how you’ve so much more cause for bitterness than any of the rest of us is condescension, then you’re probably too unintelligent to waste further effort on. The reason **jubei2k** called your rant “angst-filled schoolboy crap” is because IT WAS angst-filled schoolboy crap. _Grow the fuck up_ and then come talk to me about existence, you petulant fucking zygote. BTW… “Xenodork”!!! Is that the best you can do? Well, now I know why you’re editing rather than writing. ---

Gee, DB, sorry about that. Must have missed the posts where you _weren’t_ bitching about the answers you got. As for whether or not this thread has anything to do with me… hmmm, by that logic we can all safely say that unless a thread has our names in the title, or calls for a specific group of people to answer a question, no thread has anything to do with any of us. Kinda defeats the whole purpose of an open-access message board, doesn’t it? You posted your initial rant in the Pit. Most of the answers you got were pretty on target and quite helpful, I thought, though I didn’t see much of an acknowledgment of that from you. The flame(s?) you got was positively _tame_ in comparison to 95% of the shit I’ve seen here. If you expect everyone here to validate your opinions and/or belief systems, you’re in trouble. If you put something up, I absolutely guarantee that someone on this MB will not like it, will not agree with it, and will not hesitate to tell you so. Grow a thicker skin or you’ll never survive. ---

> [@](#): > > I dunno, we all hated the editor of our college newspaper. He just sulked in his office all day, talking to imaginary girlfriends and crying to anyone who would listen about open-heart surgeries. Nobody really cared. MMMmmm…sweet, jube. And, jube, he’s a felcher, not a blower. DB, step up the cardiac meds, you don’t wanna explode a graft or a valve, do ya? ---

OMG, you just get more stupid by the second, doncha? Here’s a news flash for ya, Braniac - We ALL understand the meaning of **condescension** , but it appears that the only person here who doesn’t understand the reason behind my cut and paste is **you**. Me thinks that maybe you should forget about the meaning of life for a while and concentrate on why you aren’t grasping something as simple as this in spite of our efforts to explain it to you slowly. ---
