Wow...where to begin.
First of all -- for the benefit of all of our viewers out there, the prior thread ABQ is referring to ended on October 16, and he is posting
this on November 1. This is really sad, because it implies that
he has actually been watching and scrutinizing my posts for the past fifteen days, just looking for
anything he could pounce on. Seriously, man...you have
got to get yourself a girl, or a hobby, or something.
Secondly -- IMO, the fact that you
have been doing this for fifteen days now and
this is all you were able to come up with should probably suggest that I'm not
that bad of a poster.
And thirdly -- let's talk about that prior thread for a moment, shall we? You say that I "wrecked" an entire thread with my post. I'm curious to know how that works, exactly, because as far as I know, I do not have the
power to single-handedly "wreck" a thread. Here's what actually happened in that thread: I put up one post that was an attempt at humor (and that did make fun of Cat fans in what I intended to be a good-natured way). Some people found it funny, and some did not...but the bottom line is, I have no control over how people respond to my posts. I did not "wreck" the thread; anybody who wanted to continue the discussion that was going on before I got there was perfectly free to do so -- that's how message boards work. All I did was put up one post, and people responded the way they responded (which, frankly, was with much more hostility than I expected; I thought we would just have a few laughs, I'd get some ribbing in return, and we'd move on). If the thread was in fact "wrecked," then the people who responded to my post are at least equally responsible for wrecking the thread as I am -- it does take two to tango, as they say.
The bottom line is, you're taking all of this way too seriously. I have been posting here for almost two years now, and I have always had good-natured fun with most of the Cat fans who post here. You can either take my posts for what they are, roll with the punches, and have fun with it -- or, you can stay angry at me, call me out in threads like this one, and keep on trying to "bust" me for being a hypocrite. The first option will probably result in some good times; the second will probably result in you getting your ass handed to you in many more smack threads to come (because, let's be honest -- you don't appear to be very good at this whole smack talking thing

).
Cheers,
