Yes another hanger on who follows me around the forum dispensing wisdom. You need to stop taking the interweb so seriously, maybe get a hobby.

"Follows"? Flatter yourself some more. This thread has been my only interaction with you. You should perhaps quit fellating yourself.

You should perhaps stop judging people from your imperial throne of wisdom every five minutes. since every time I post anything now the next post is yours, it's getting kind of boring. Go hold a grudge against someone who gives a fuck maybe?

The cartoon is satirising fact. Look here.

Seraph, I'm aware that the Texas School Board makes stupid decisions. I just find it funny the pretense online that it only happens there.

I missed the bit where any forum member said stupid decisions are only made in Texas. Have a look around. Threads about them being made elsewhere on the planet abound.

You replied to a cartoon posted by egbert with: "Motherfuckers need to lay off us Texans, goddamnit." I thought the cartoon, though irrelevant to this thread, was fair comment and in no way implied that stupid decisions are only made in Texas. You seem to be piling irrelevance on top of irrelevance.

That was a joke. I don't typically post using "motherfucker" and the like; it's not a word I use regularly anywhere.

I'll make sure to highlight jokes in the future, to avoid these sorts of ruffled feathers.

However, this last post of yours in no way indicates where I singled out this forum. I'm glad I have your help in building Mt Irrelevancy this fine Sunday morning. :)

Let me make amends. Here we go. A thread dedicated to discussing Texans.

Wasn't the ussr an ally at one time?

So seth, would you have been anti-ussr before and during the war?

And would you have been a "pre-mature anti-fascist" as well?
