[QUOTE=Nancarrow] **Colibri** , I’ll spell it out for you: you are not _responding_ to people with sticks up their arses. You _are_ the guy with the stick up his arse. [/quote] Sure. I have a stick up my ass about people with sticks up their ass, like you. > [@](#): > > maybe it’s because what you have to say is needlessly insulting and misrepresentative, and you have been called on it. So was what **JKellyMap** wrote when he or she accused the OP of racism. > [@](#): > > Tough shit. ‘Offenderati’ is a most amusing word. Rather like ‘tree-huggers’ and even ‘liberals’ though, it tends to identify a phantom group merely to allow its user to feel smug and righteous. You mean, like you? > [@](#): > > I’m sure you’re better than this. No I’m not, and neither are you. 😉 ---

[QUOTE=TokyoPlayer] Hijack of a pitting of Mexican bastards. So, the owner of a landscape company, which underpays people so that only illegal Mexicans will work there, can figure out the part about making money but can’t be bothered learning how to talk to the people she exploits. Pay people real money and get real work from them. Oh, how much does this bastard make? Does the president pay benefits? Are they covered by insurance? [/QUOTE] Not illegal, (the owner is a tickler is about that). No benefits - small company. 10 bucks an hour. Antonio get’s 15. I get either 10 or piecework. Anybody else want to jump to conclusions? ---

[QUOTE=Little Plastic Ninja] Honestly, is anyone offended here actually of Mexican descent? [/QUOTE] Well, I for one am not offended. My parents were married when I was born. ---

[QUOTE=JKellyMap] Well, several posters to this thread have agreed with me that the title was intentionally provocative, probably meant to attract a particular reaction from particular people that has nothing to do with the content of the OP. That is a perfectly good definition of a mild, essentially harmless version of what many call “trolling”, as at least one other poster to this thread has observed. If you choose to place the threshold between “trolling” and “not trolling” at a higher level of viciousness or ill intention than I do, fair enough. I implied all along that this would be a marginal case, not worth the attention of the Mods (especially here in the Pit). [/QUOTE] I’ve three things to say to this. 1. “Provacative” is not remotely the same as “trolling.” 2. The fact that you’ve found one other moron who will agree with you does not make either of you right. 3. If this is a “marginal case not worth the attention of a mod,” why don’t you shut the fuck up about it, already, and stop hijacking the thread with your specious whining? ---

[QUOTE=CBEscapee] Pendeja tu madre [/QUOTE] And that, my friend, was a true mexican exchange. (Actually, a co-worker went from there to kicking another’s ass… literally) ---

I think it’s great that the (rather awesome) joke about Mexicans not really having tails is drawing no heat, while everything else is. I shall continue to watch this with interest. ---

[QUOTE=Colibri] … But then you started to accuse the OP of racism … [/QUOTE] Colibri: I didn’t mean to go that far. If I seemed to, I apologize (to the OP).
