Exactly. When it comes to wiping up, the cleaning crew is the piece de resistance.

And after you're through crapping all over this thread, you can tell me what your problem is, or face the consequences.

I don't recall admonishing you for anything or participating in any of your threads. I posted in this thread to clarify some things. I don't run this place to take shit off of you or anyone else. Explain yourself. What's your problem?

And I can guarantee you one thing to a certainty, and that's that you will not have the last word.

I apologize for the above being taken in the wrong way. I had no intention of this occurring. I have no problem with your actions or posts.

It was an attempt at banter, which obviously did not go well.

Sorry -- a poor attempt at humor. I do enjoy your sarcasm.

If you're gonna bandy words with me, bring your Goddamned lunch.

Hmmm, I'm thinking that the offer to become pen pals with Bendable fits in the category of:

Beyond that, I wouldn't want to be around people who are perfectly mannerly at all times, because, quite frankly, that would bore the ever-lovin' shit out of me. Sarcasm = wit = at least some degree of intelligence. But, as with all things, too much is too much, and in this forum, such excesses are dealt with appropriately.

This isn't a knitting circle. We aren't elderly ladies. This is a forum comprised overwhelmingly of male adults, and not just male adults, but male adults who take an active interest in manly pursuits and defense of self and family. Such a cadre will have some form of gauntlet through which each member may run at some point.

Agreed. I am not saying that all sarcasm should be banished. But damn isn’t there any originality anymore?

Para, I’ll have to read what you write a little differently from here on. I didn’t realize that a lot of the time you’re being sarcastic. I think most of the times I have misstepped, it’s gone past sarcasm and straight to direct correction. I have a tendency to be a dumbass at times.

This isn’t about sarcasm in any thread I started and responses to such. It just so happened that I read a couple different threads this morning where the same old lines were regurgitated. It got me thinking and so I posted about it.

As Para said, it’s not a knitting circle. No, but I do have an expectation of intelligence when I come here. It’s not the Tacomaworld Third Gen forum. I don’t have much for expectations there.

I was an irritable SOB this morning and for whatever reason had a bee in my bonnet over this. So I went to work, and when the day was done, I was happy as one could be to read what everyone had to say here. It’s my little slice of paradise here. Work has a tendency to put things into perspective.

Thanks for all your replies. I appreciate every one of them. Anyways, it’ll buff out.

I like your posts and admire your sense of humor. Keep posting and the majority of us will be richer for it!

If I thought I'd have to walk on egg shells concerned about pleasing every last reader, I'd never post anything. If I am annoying you, I'm sure it'll buff out.

Ain't that the truth. Might even be marginal for a hat rack.

Excessive brain activity linked to a shorter life

Well shit.

I'm guilty of making some off-the-wall responses, I know. If they offend, I apologize. My mind frequently sees alternate interpretations of thread titles or other responses that strike me as funny and I comment on them. I suspect not everyone sees the same humor.

Put me down as guilty too. In another thread someone asked why a small plane shining was pointing a green laser on the ground. I said he was playing with a cat. No one else appreciated my sick humor.

And my syntax is a total mess because when I’m doing this on a phone I can hardly see the keyboard. Old man problems.

Funny, I thought I was being sarcastic.
