Why are assholes such assholes?

Ooooh! Apache has told me, in essence, to “Get a life”!!

Boy, with a razor-sharp wit like that (I’ll bet no-one on the entire internet has ever used that phrase before!), it’s no wonder you’re so proud of your nearly triple-digit IQ.

And your hygiene skills, no doubt.

No, no, no, Fenris. Apache was talking to FERRIS, who apparently took the day off.

It’s equally apparent that I’m approaching the apogee of assholishness with this stupid post.

Does anyone remember the old song “The Doggie’s Convention.”

The doggies had a convention, see, and they all had to check their assholes at the door. But someone yelled “Fire!” and so the doggies grabbed any old asshole they could on the way out the door.

And that’s why doggies always sniff each other’s assholes upon meeting. They’re looking for their own.

Er, carry on.

If we’re going to go the British route, why not deepen the question by asking “Why are assholes such wankers…?”

Which leads to the question: which is better/worse – to be the nadir or the apogee of assholishness? Perhaps assholishness is circular, so that the nadir becomes the apogee.

I’m surrounded by assholes!

That’s like one of those “tree falls in the forest” philosophical-type questions.

I’ll be thinking about that while I’m sitting on the toilet and meditating.

I just wanted to point out that we finally have a thread on the SDMB with a sufficient amount of SpaceBalls references,

Between this and erislover’s Princess Bride reference in the Britney Spears thread, my day is just about made.

Now if you will excuse me, I really must shower.

No, assholes are circular. Assholishness is exponential.

This thread reminds me of the shirt my Mom has:

“All men are Assholes and I married their King”
Would it be worse to be the nadir or zenith of assholishness?

What’s at the arse-end of arseholishness?

Man in Bar: ALL LAWYERS ARE ARSEHOLES!
Much Bigger and Uglier Guy: YOU! Take that back.
MiB: You’re a laywer??
MBaUG: No, I’m an arsehole.

(apologies, lawyers are my favorite people, esp. Uncle David, etc)

Since we’re going on a scale of assholishness, it’s pretty clear that being higher on the scale implies more assholishness. Thus, the apogee is worse.

By the way, did you know www.dictionary.com had an entry for “wanker”? Who knew such a complicated word would have such a simple meaning?

dictionary.com has an entry for everything, and it’s always the simple words that have the most complicated definitions. Look up “as” or “be”.

Asshole?

Shit, I rectum!
