Boo-yah

Yeah, I know I said "do not feed the troll" but Jesus. (Scroll down. You know you want to.)

Fucking hilarious riposte, Andrea:

"Go back to alt.binaries.masturbating.dwarfs and find someone who cares."

Hehehehehehe.

I asked this in Tim's comments, but I really want to know: why did that moron put his spaces before his punctuation? Is that some foreign thing? Because I have trouble taking anyone seriously if they do something stupid like put their spaces before their commas. It's as if the guy was like, "I'm a much better driver than you!", but he goes on reds and stops on greens.

Maybe it's a protest against fascist punctuation rules.

What I don't understand, Andrea, is this: why do these silly people keep coming back for more?

Can it really be that they imagine that their back-of-the-short-bus insults pass as witty repartee in any company but their own?

I mean, I had been chortling away to myself that they seemed to have only one way of saying "I am an idiot, but I can't help proving it to the world over and over", and they keep on commenting!

Wetherall had one thing right: you're not in his league. You're actually the most intelligent, sexy, amazing woman on the internet! I want to be your body slave!

Kim's right -- it is better this way.

Ah, roast tr0ll. Andrea, you serve the bestest picnic lunches!

Trolls in my limited experience are contrarians, but usually you can make them angry. Everyone has a weakness, you just have to exploit it. Trolls always seem to have more soft spots than most.

And to cite a Lyndon LaRouche website!!! Kay-rist on a crutch, can that nim-rod weatherall even begin to appreciate what a bunch of moon-howling wing-nuts the LaRouchies are? Actually, he probably can't. My mistake, sorry.

Hemingway punctuated like that . In manuscript . You think Mr. Weatherall has been using Hemingway's typewriter ? Maybe that's what became of the one that was stolen on the train . One might hope that Mr. Weatherall may manage to avoid emulating Hemingway in matters of depression and ordnance .

I hope I don't keep typing like this !

I have a cure. It involved a ball-peen hammer and heated tongs, though. You may want to take out some insurance first.

My word, that little punctuation problem seems to be all better now! But thanks for offering to help with it.

Glad to be of service. :}

Gee, Andrea, posting comments under other people's names.

That, as we say here, is a brilliant idea!
