Post by ur_drollPost by maxPost by PumbaPost by maxPost by MÃPost by maxPlease disregard my other posts - I thought you were invading *this*
group . . . my apologies. I hate SPAM too.
By what stretch of whose imagination did you earn the right to that
nym?
Um, by picking it and being intelligent enough to log on to the Usenet.
you could have asked a friend.
Can't, I've killed them all.
Post by Pumbawithout proof of your intelligence, we have to assume that you are a
fucking dumb cunt.
Or that you are.
Post by PumbaPost by maxBy what stretch of *no* imagination did you earn the right to yours?
he has people who can vouch for him. me for instance.
I hope I'm not supposed to be impressed by that.
Post by PumbaPost by maxBy just tapping random characters on your keyboard?? Or did someone *sell*
you that persona?
sell? LOL! he stole it.
Yeah - from Dollar General.
Post by PumbaPost by maxPost by MÃYou want spoof attacks on every cyber terrorist on Usenet? Do
you _like_ having your group flooded with 50,000+ nym-shifted,
impossible-to-killfile meaningless posts for months on end thrown up
by mindless bots bent on your group's destruction? Change the nym or
quit crossposting too atj.
For one thing, there's no real censorship to the Usenet, so I pretty
much toss a general raspberry in your direction on that.
okay, so you have some interesting ideas. what else have you got?
Two DDs and a crappy attitude - and you?
Post by PumbaPost by maxFor a second, I didn't start x-posting to your group, though I am
pretty sure that I *have* posted there in the past. As an overall
connoisseur of all things funny, not as a troll.
you're not a troll? goooooood.
<sharpening utensils>
Does this mean I'm invited to dinner?
Post by PumbaPost by maxThirdly, what/who are you? ATJ's Gestapo?
no, that would be g.p. who we never mention, btw.
Why? Did you all have him over for dinner, too?
Post by PumbaPost by maxIf you're not carrying a badge or a BIG gun, bugger off.
can't fault you on attitude. you show some potential.
Potential? I feel so privileged and special. But not short bus special
like you guys.
Post by PumbaPost by maxOn second thought, if you ARE carrying
a gun, why don't you try shoving it up your ass so it can keep the
Redwood tree currently up there company?
Phbbbbttt!
some work needed on creativity, though.
Give me a break . . . as the saying goes, GIGO.
Post by Pumbare-using the same material only works if it's really brilliant stuff,
like the stuff i come up with.
I believe in recycling. Most of the stuff *you've* used has come from
my compost heap.
Post by PumbaPost by maxAnd Max is my name, so I don't think it'd be too kind to Mum and Dad if
I changed it at this late of a date! ; )
your first task then, is to kill them and eat their livers.
