No, dear boy. It's just not any big secret. You being so stupid as

of just how intellectually challenged you are.

O'Hara made the phosphor on my monitor glow in
such a way as to indicate that:

But that's irrelevant. Even if the US had abolished hanging, that
wouldn't mean it was uncivilized. We don't use chamber pots anymore
either, but that doesn't mean chamber pots were uncivilized. We
don't have full-service gas stations, but that doesn't mean
self-serve is more civilized.

They still do in Oregon, AFAIK. Last time I checked, it was illegal
to pump your own there.

Correct. A few years ago there was a ballot measure to
legalize self-serve, but it failed.

It's not your keyboard, it's your Newsreader client. Microsoft Outlook
and other low-end/non-compliant ones don't append XML language.body
tags to your posts, which forces posters into exercising greater
linguistic literality to compensate for the reduced bandwidth.
"Up to scratch" has the advantage of not appearing self-contradictory
in contextless print, though, so you probably don't have to worry so
much about that one.
Still, a bit of additional work should get you past your newsreader's
limitations. For example, "I should care? It's not my Constitution"
would have conveyed your intended meaning *and* intonation (at least, to
people who've heard it before, even if it's not the first thing they
think of) clearly, even without body.language tags.

Right, so it's Bill Gates fault.. again?

Isn't everything?

are just too stupid to absorb data that doesn't fit in with what you

Congratulations.

Freddy, you have many buttons that are easy to push...

You have to up put with all sorts of nonsense if you don't killfill
Eric. Almost every time he posts, he reminds me of that line from
Ruthless People: "This could very well be the stupidest person on the

Is that a threat?

You see here we are having fun on the net and Rand thinks joking about
shooting someone is cute.

In context, that is obviously _not_ a threat, nor is he advocating
shooting you.

Not to mention that he thinks "having fun on the net" consists of
accusing people of being frauds, and liars, and spewing non-sequiturs
and asking idiotic complex questions non-stop that insult everyone's
intelligence.

No, Rand, only yours, little there is...

Oh, you forgot to add "wannabe" to your list, as that is first and
foremost for you.

Nope, never. I do quite well actually. I certainly don't foster a need
to feel superior to everybody else as you do. And those delusions of
grandeur seem oddly misplaced on you.

Freddy, deep down inside you get that I have something you need. That
is why you continue to repsond. Now if you were more open about that
then you might actually get it. And before you go off with some lame,
"you're not my type" BS, ask yourself why you continue to respond to
me. Why, Freddy?
