I don\'t see how plea bargins work so nicely for the person.

We seriously need to put an IQ test on this site for membership.

Title: Only in the US
Post by: Bozco on July 04, 2005, 07:52:54 PM: I\'m surrounded by idiots. Let me dumb it down for everyone. A number of members used to say only in the US for each little thing that happened here. So finally it was something terrible outside so I was being a smartass. A lot of the members got it, sorry some of you couldn\'t handle it.

Post by: Coredweller on July 04, 2005, 08:22:33 PM: Next time add quotes " " and a :rolleyes: so we know it\'s not YOU who is the idiot. Otherwise there is no way to tell.

BTW, who are these "lot of members who got it?"

Post by: Bozco on July 04, 2005, 08:30:54 PM: The joke had been previously used for similar stories outside of the US. Don\'t give me that "by the way" bullshit.

Post by: videoholic on July 05, 2005, 03:36:41 AM: I think the problem here is that Bozco is trying to be funny.
Title: Only in the US
Post by: Bozco on July 05, 2005, 08:42:13 AM: No, not really. Don\'t be mad cause you\'re too fucking stupid to piece this together. I don\'t know what your problem with me is, but go take your little IQ test and get back to me with that 83.

Title: Only in the US
Post by: Bozco on July 05, 2005, 02:26:29 PM: Well I\'m not going to try to be nice. If you\'ve posted in CE any you should be able to piece it together unless you\'re an idiot. For instance Vid

You could have saved yourself a lot of trouble by spending 10 extra seconds on your initial post. We all knew there were two ways to interpret it because you didn\'t make it clear that you were being sarcastic.

Therefore, we were left to guess whether you were smart and witty, or dumb and ill informed.

All we had to go on was your post, which contained both grammar and spelling errors. Normally a smart person would be able to construct a grammatically correct sentence, especially one so short. Maybe you can see how this weakened the impact of your attempted humorous thread.

Coming from the perfect grammar teacher. :rolleyes: Cored spare me your teaching if you can\'t handle "its" and "it\'s".

And it never was an attempt to be humorous. The only funny thing so far this thread was Vid posting, and the sad part is he\'s only funny when he\'s not trying to be.
Title: Only in the US
Post by: Coredweller on July 05, 2005, 03:48:10 PM: I don\'t walk on water, and I\'m not perfect. That\'s why I don\'t normally call attention to grammar errors.

However, I was trying to explain why people who misjudged the meaning of your post are not "idiots."

God forbid you should admit that your post could have been a little clearer.
Title: Only in the US
Post by: Bozco on July 05, 2005, 03:50:11 PM: Others used it before, didn\'t think much of it. If Vid wasn\'t his jackass self towards me it wouldn\'t have come to this. *shrugs*

We\'re wasting our time.

Post by: Living-In-Clip on July 05, 2005, 11:10:15 PM: I used the same exact joke in a previous thread, that I started and everyone "got it". I think the problem here is, one member had their head up his / her ass and others just joined to be on the bandwagon.

:)

With that said, I remember reading about her and her husbands sick "adventures".
