Really?? They don't put a whole of emphasis on reading at McNeese, do they? Please don't do this with, Jay.  Or I'll have to start getting the dictionary out to translate his reply.  You don't know what you are starting.   Doc ef J.  :  The fact that he spent more than 5 minutes responding to a post on a message board is entertaining.  Sigh!! I guess I'll pop some popcorn. Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Lou"siana is how the podunks in the middle of the woods say it. Funny I heard mudhole when all Florida is, is one big swamp. Pot, meet kettle.

In this case the collective "you" would be come the specific "you." Second, if my post read like a thesis paper to a USF alum, well, that both speaks volumes AND for itself. Third, as to the notion that a figurative threat made earlier could become a literal reality, I'll have to wait until I'm over my convulsive fits of laughter before responding specifically. The short version is that my earlier post about a possible dissociative reality perception problem has been conclusively proven. Yes I type better than you. No, that doesn't mean you'd be able to kick my ass. It's like Saturday's game. You actually have to play it to find out who wins. Don't automatically assume that you're in a position to beat a guy up simply because he's more articulate than you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, that involves playing down to the level of the competition. If you wanna see better responses, try posting better pejoratives....

Our football team may try to use a variation of that one after Saturday. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
