218. "You just cannot refrain from responding to me, can you?"

Fri Oct 10, 2014, 05:17 PM

Oct 2014

HOLY SHIT.

And with that, this stupid, deranged and completely PURPOSELESS subthread has come full circle. The poster who repeatedly and openly REFUSES to leave me alone despite being told a dozen times to take a hike is accusing ME of bullying and now has reached the absolutely psychotic "conclusion" that I am the one who cannot refrain from responding to HIM.

Oh this shit is being bookmarked for the next time you just simply HAVE to fucking respond to me and the next time someone talks about how the devolution of discourse here and the harassment faced by certain posters has turned this place into a shit hole. I could have called you a maniac a hundred times and nothing, and I mean NOTHING, could have illustrated that truth better than your own damned posts in this subthread.

Thanks for doing my work for me and for ending this conversation on such an illustrative note. Because whether you choose to acknowledge it or not (and history has proven that you almost certainly WON'T) this conversation is over and you could not have lost it in more ways or more spectacularly.

Edit: Oh, and I love the edit you made. Folks should make sure to click that edit button to see your lame "Testing" reply that was your first response. Like I said, this person lost it in every conceivable way and is clearly not bright enough to realize that. Utterly pathetic.
