Was it? Well I think other people deserved to hear other things as well.

The last one is new. Thank you very much indeed, I will gladly line it up along with all the other kind compliments paid to me in the past. Pretentious is a word so obsolete it will make a terrific eye-catcher.

Some people actually have a life apart from this message board and not necessarily the time to dig through floods of answers on a daily basis. Besides I think pretentious and sarcastic cannot be compared so very well, arrogant and pretentious have a closer linking.

Language, Ari, language. For someone so fond of criticizing grammar and spelling and so immensely proud of their good education as you guys are, you certainly feel the urge to swear a lot. At least be more imaginative about it: Whatever happened to good old "shit" for instance? Personally I think "bloody Hell" is quite charming too.

On another note nobody bothered to pick on ClampGirl's poor grammar, people where much too busy discussing her poor arguments and constant side-switching. As far as I remember her grammar and spelling only became object of discussion when the "proper discussion" rants started.

... and even if Lika being my friend eventually made the barrel spill over, well, how did you so eloquently put it? Fucked ....

That's the benefit of the lurker.
