(resists asking "What's the difference between the 90 and the 120?"...resists asking "What's the difference between the 90 and the 120?"...resists asking...) Oh, what the hell -- what's the difference between the 90 and the 120? Bonus brownie points to anyone who responds with the intent between the two brews, rather than just "30". Oh, and me: yet another pair of shoes. I can't figure out if I'm a 9 wide, or a 10 1/2 regular/medium/D...or something else, so when I find a pair of shoes that fits, and they're reasonably priced, I buy them. I got these one pair of Propet's -- with one pair of socks, they don't fit quite right; with another pair, they fit perfectly. (So yes, I bought them, and I'll only wear those socks with those shoes.)

\m/ Rock on.

'Cause suicide is painless it brings on many changes and I can take or leave it if I please. ...and you can do the same thing if you please.

Welcome to head-case, sorry about the lack of a decoder ring. (Do a search on "mot" -- you'll see that DIY is the new MOT.)

You been changing diapers too much. What do you feed your kids, carrots?

Only if you're a lawyer.

I disagree. Wikipedia says, "...It may be used to evoke strong feelings or to create a strong impression...", which sounds an awful lot like "inflame" to me. I thought you meant that it wasn't subtle. Let's just agree that hyperbole is a lot closer to inflammation than subtlety, 'kay? (And yes, the next time someone uses hyperbole, I fully intend to use the line, "stop it, you're giving me an inflammation".)

Jeez, keep up, it was just hyperbole.

No, there was a question in there, I.E. which is it? My point was that hyperbole can be inflammatory.

Okay, I think I finally got grawk's point -- I completely misunderstood. He was saying Aaron was not being subtle, I.E. using hyperbole. So in a sense, by my saying that what he was saying was inflammatory, I was agreeing with him. But with you, I'm still lost -- you're saying he was using hyperbole, but that it was not inflammatory -- so which is it? I think you accidentally followed my lead a little bit -- Dan was saying that it's perfectly acceptable to be inflammatory when subtlety doesn't work -- which in this case, was not being used at all (yes?). I don't think I ever blamed anyone else for my ignorance, I just didn't understand what was going on. I take full responsibility for my mistake. Oh, and Mike, you want to take a whack at me? Fuck off and die.

And again, spin-doctoring to your own agenda (in this case, defending Aaron).

You used the word "acceptable", implying I was saying otherwise -- I was trying to explain how I was not calling his post "unacceptable", but rather just contradicting him and/or calling him names. -10 reading comprehension points for you, -5 writing comprehensibly points for me.

Saying it is not inflammatory does not make it not inflammatory, it just makes you (a) wrong, ( a liar, © all of the above/a lawyer. And I question anyone who talks about raping kids as being (a) subtle, ( not an ass, © not inflammatory. I stand by my statements.

...and (you're probably too young to know this) was a reference to "Mork & Mindy" -- an early TV show starring Robin Williams.

I never said he shouldn't post. I just called him an ass on this. I think you're giving him more credit than he deserves by believing subtlety from his post. The mention of "rape" is hardly subtle -- it was deliberately inflammatory, and hence the "shouldn't be a mod" comment.

I don't agree with your formatting choices, but...whatevs... Artist: Tonio K. Album: Life in the Foodchain Song: "HATRED" Lyric: "I wish I were as mellow, as, for instance, Jackson Brown but 'fountain of sorrow' my ass motherfucker I hope you wind up in the ground"

Oh, that makes it so much better. Not if you whine about it when you get shit back.

Nixon Scout Leather all-black.

Dr. Snuggles I understand, but...Mr. Shasbotski? Is that a reference to something, or is it just ...arbitrary?

Sorry, I meant, "That right there is why you should never be a father." No, seriously dude, you were just being a prick, stirring shit up, fucking with us -- not making a valid point -- so expect same. Quit being so fucking thin-skinned -- if you can't take the heat, don't involve yourself in these discussions. It's time for... For the record, I don't show my disdain for you every time you post, only when you're being a prick. I don't care how many people on this site like you, I will call you out on it every single fucking time.

I fixed it. Feel free to put it back.

See, and that right there is why you shouldn't be a mod.

I love you guys! Pfff.

You may want to try shopnbc again, there, Billy, I just checked the link again, and it's saying "available".
