I overlooked it when you acted like an ass in one of my threads. In fact, I even poked fun back at you using the same line from the other side of the fence. This is the all-new and improved, kinder, gentler me at work.

Now, you’re shitting on a prefectly good thread about Anthracite’s birthday. I won’t overlook that. You’ve made a tremendous flaming ass of yourself, specifically with the intent of hurting someone’s feelings. Why?

What’s your problem, bub? Are you affecting the role of an incontinent bird, flitting from thread to thread, dropping an unsavory morsel wherever you land? Are you deriving some sort of sick pleasure from squeezing these sphincter-rippers out and into everyone’s parade?

Don’t Be A Jerk.

This post brought to you by the society for bitchslapping jackass bastards.

I agree. That was completely uncalled for and out of line.

What was the point if not to just be mean?

For your viewing pleasure. (And don’t forget to wish Una a happy birthday!)

[Link, linkety, link, link, link.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=78948)

I don’t know why you would take the time to post “No”, rather than just leave the thread alone. Like Fierra said, if you didn’t want to wish Una a happy birthday, you didn’t have to. Then again, some people are just assholes.

Low striking and transparent; the guy’s an impudent ass.

You don’t have to like everyone, but pissing on someone else’s party because you feel personally wronged shows no class.

Well, since **Anthracite** didn’t leap into that thread of yours to blush prettily and say “Golly gee, thank you all for wishing me a Happy Birthday, let me slice some cake for you all,” perhaps she’s one of the legions of us who doesn’t CELEBRATE her fucking birthday, and prefers to just ignore the whole deal.

(Small legions, anyway.)

I know if someone had the temerity to start a thread on MY fucking birthday, I would ignore the fucking thing, too, and be happy that someone like **WSBB** gave it a public finger.

(Okay, I’m not speaking for either **Anthra** OR **WSBB;** possibly she’s too sodden with cake and ice cream to reply, and he’s really a meanspirited monster. The above is just from my POV.)

Not a classy move and if it was a joke it didn’t work, and if it wasn’t then I just lost my respect for you Woodstock.

An editor who does not read? Is this an oxymoron, or is that why _Tick Tock_ was published?

The thread was not mine, **Ukulele Ike**. **Fierra** started the thread, and seeing that they’re a couple, one wouldn’t have to make too much of a leap to realize that Fierra knows what Anthracite likes at least a little bit more than you do. I’m disappointed in you.

in that very thread?

I think it’s safe to say she enjoyed the birthday thread. And what does that have to do with some jerkoff jumping in and raining on her parade? That’s just uncalled for no matter what.

**woodstockbirdybird** , you festering sack of rotten monkey shit. How fucking dare you make a mockery of something so solemn as somebody’s birthday. THEIR BIRTHDAY!!

You’ve gotten your last homosexual favor from me you dickless ass-muffin!!

I will not stand for this impudence from you or any poster.

[sub]somebody hand me another beer … where was I?[/sub]

You rassin’-frassin’ so and so!! Oooh, I just hate with a burning seething, …

I totally forgot what I was talking about. How 'bout them Red Sox?

You douchebag!

Never have so many done so much over so little, but…wait, which side was I on?

**Manservant** , relax, he was a flaming ass, in fact, hey: **Woody** you ass. **MrC** , you ass, wait…uh, huh.  
Kinda like tennis, but without the nice short skirts. I’m not sure who I thought the ass was, but for my own part, HB, **anth**.

Wow.

That was unnessesary. _frowns_

You know, I don’t know Una all that well. I like reading her posts, and think she’s a neat person I should go talk to some time, but I feel like the shy kid on the other side of the fence. So I didn’t post in her birthday thread. (What would I write? “Hi! You rock! Have a nice day!” She’d read it and go “Medea’s what? Didn’t they all die?” and go on. both of us would live, but a neutral experiance at best.)

You should be able to share your heartfelt feelings, but you don’t shit on people outside of the Pit. Or at least that’s how I’ve thought of it, am I wrong? Did I miss a memo?

Wow, that’s just ridiculous. Incredible. And here I was hoping for a decent answer to the questions. But I suppose that would take a decent poster.
