I doubt this would dissuade many of the people on this board LOL. We're all pretty ballsy.

There can be no other argument. You go too far, you shut the **** up and back off. You don't, you're in trouble. And in the wrong.

^You've gone too far with this meme.

I was only trying to help you, and I was looking for a "thank you" and this is what I get in return?

Obviously not a cure all, but I think it's been improving my forum presence.
Strange you say that cause I often daydream about you and Frownland having a conversation like at a restaurant. The daydream always ends the same way: with you flipping the table.

That said, I'm happy to say it never happened and move into some alternate timeline where Batty and I are still friends. If he's willing.
I have no particular desire to engage in some silly, petty feud.

It would probably just burn up. I don't think olive branches were or are good for smoking.
