It is an interesting description for the behaviors of some people, especially the ones who are "totally bonkers"

Thank you, HM.

Gentlemen, I am a voice of adult thought around here. Adult thinking sounds like me. If you are going to insist on behaving and sounding like subadult imbeciles, how do you think you're going to be treated? Should you be treated in some other fashion?

Huh.

I hadn't realized we were running low on condescension.

Full up now, though. Thanks!

No, no you're not. We're mostly adults, majority rules.... you just missed the people skills boat and fashioned yourself as you feel adults should be from whatever bizarre material you watched in your formative years ...Gone With The Wind, maybe? You're truly insane with delusions of grandeur among other issues. Amazing you weren't kicked out of the navy. Or were you?

"You'd rather live with that silly little fool who can't open her mouth except to say "yes" or "no" and raise a passel of mealy-mouthed brats just like her "

Yup, my money's on GWTW. You should have picked Rhett as your model, though.

Classic UG.

So...basically, all adults sound like you. And if they don't sound like you then they are not adults.

Sticks are brown. This is brown. Therefore this is a stick.

Not even UG deserves this. Why do you go way off your rocker just to be ugly? Attacking someone's wife,kids?? wtf

Hey skysidhe--

That is a quote from the movie "Gone With The Wind", (GWTW). It is in context with the rest of monster's comment, in that she's suggesting that UG's .... attitudes were influenced by the characters in the movie. It is not an attack on his wife or kids, though she does score a touch with Scarlett.

She is a conceited narcissist; it is an apt comparison.

<strike>/end captain obvious</strike>
/end captain pedantic

Betta?

Wasn't captain obvious to me either. I thought the same as Sky.
I also agree with you on this part.

I can't say as i immediately recognised the quote. But the fact it was in quotation marks did suggest it was a quote and not Monster's own words to UG.

Hey sycophantic moron # 1: BigV meant Scarlett.

Hey sycophantic moron # 2: No matter how hard you try, UG will probably not sleep with either you or crassic. Now, do we really also need to point out your recent meltdown and subsequent screaming at 3 Dwellars?

Pitiful how you two glom on to anything UG and his ilk say about anyone who is on your vendetta list. Little dogs in tall grass: what are the cool kids doing?

I'd cry of inner shame were I either of you two.



PS Nice late edit, Mr Accuser of Calling People Out on Late Edits. Piti (wait for it) ful.

Now why don't you find someone else's ass to ride? Ride mine, I'm only here to tell you that you suck, anyway.

I'm laughing at you.

edit- Mostly, I'll try to forget about you, and yours. You'll both ruin my Christmas cheer.
You two (Shaw & Monster) go right ahead and make the world a better place ,in your own way, for your particular statures,I see what that is.

From now on,I'll ignore you and your bosom buddy, for my happiness sake, not yours.

I'm with sky. You pop back in just to be a bitch and attack someone about something you have nothing to do with.
Gee thanks. Way to add to the discussion - not.
