_Rather not join_? You asked for it in the first place:

Lol, what a maroon.

Once again(for those playing in the studio audience), the requested phrase of the day was “_Off-Topic Threadshitting_”. Our contestant gets no points for getting it half right. Better luck next time.

I just think the guy needs 10 cc’s of tact IV. I stand by my opinion that he’s a bigot, however. There’s a way to express your disagreement with another’s religious views tactfully. **Czarcasm** doesn’t care about that. The dude’s got a lot of hate in him.

Take another looksee in this thread and tell me where you spot the hate.

Too bad he never delivered, isn’t it? He managed to stray off-topic several times, and he posted something that he claimed was threadshitting(to him, at least), but he just couldn’t put the two together.

You know, I may be wrong about something. I still believe that **Czarcasm** has a lot of hate in him. I think that’s confirmed with all the invective he throws around. However, he might not be the bigot I thought he was. A google search brings up threads like this:

[Describe your God](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=726362)  
[For The Religious: What about other gods?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=716973)  
[What if all professed Christians disappeared?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=711801)

Now, none of those OP’s he started are hateful in any way, shape, or form. However, they do seem to indicate that he thinks about religion a lot. Like _a lot._ It’s quite possible that he isn’t a bigot about religion, and rather, just a complete and utter asshole with zero tact that is interested _in_ religion. I can kinda sorta forgive that.

So **Czarcasm** , I still think you are a jackass, but I’m going to apologize for calling you a bigot.

OK **Czdorkasm**. you wanted examples of how you threadshit? I’ll give you one, even though you’ll deny it and cry and bawl about the injustice you undeservedly suffer. I’ll even post the pertinent parts here so you won’t have to expend precious effort to click on the link.

In [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=731653&highlight=language), the OP innocently asks,

> [@](#):
>
> \*\*What are some interesting obscure dialogue you read in a fantasy novel? \*\*Because certain creature and people talk in a very cryptic way. Can you quote some that you’ve personally read and found interesting and can you explain what they were saying in layman’s terms?

Your wise and insightful offering:

> [@](#):

> Are we allowed to quote from _The Eye Of Argon_?

Ha, ha. Oh look, **Czarcasm** referenced the Worst Story Ever Written just to show how cutting edge he is. It had fuck-all to do with the topic, but he found it necessary to display his sparkling wit just in case everybody forgot.

**Fenris** made you his bitch in this thread, and **armedmonkey** is trying his best not to squeeze your nuts too hard, but you keep showing your ass for more whippings, just so you can get in the last word. No one is impressed by your show of obnoxious bristling. You win nothing. Abczolutely nothing.

Right-I brought _his_ name up in this thread, accused _him_ of all sorts of crap, then accused _him_ of being the worst something or another on the whole internet. Really, with cheerleaders like you, **Knowed Out** and **Drunky Smurf** coming up with obvious nonsense like this it just makes my job so much easier, so…keep 'em coming, _please_.

Heh, **Guin’s** right, This is like a bad meet cute rom com. **Fenris** is Ben Affleck and **Czarcasm** is Jennifer Lopez because, you know, somebody’s got to be the big ass.

We need to talk to **Novelty Bobble**. Is the pavilion still open? I’m still not sure what the fag machine does, but I’m sure it’s fabulous, so maybe we need that too. Regardless, I think the **Bobble** can book us a bar and a dance floor. Let’s throw a wedding!

You got this weird look, like you were possessed or something, and started flailing around and gnashing your teeth and spitting. Then you just went limp, and then opened your eyes and said “what just happened?”
