No…_that_ was a trophy.

_THIS_ is a toaster:

Was that a threat? I believe that’s not allowed on this board. Heh.

You really should stop now before you make a complete idiot of yourself (well, it’s probably too late for that, come to think of it.)

This thread seems to have given **Diane** a chance to be noticed, amid her pretensions of grandeur.

Yeah, just let her be. She might just end up like one of the Small Gods, and fade if we look elsewhere.

Two catfightin’ girls snarlin’, in the Pit-thread.  
**Diane** gonna be the biggest bitch of them all!

Yep **Ice Wolf** , I totally agree. If we continue to feed the insatiable lustings for fame (albeit via vitriol) such as **Diane** has displayed, we are doing nothing more than feeding her illness.

It’s sad really, as **Blonde** said earlier.
