[...]I can't believe I just told another forumite to shut up. Will I get in trouble for a personal attack?
I certainly hope you won't get in trouble for that, because you were saying what I was thinking.

In fact, I wish you could follow some people around and just tell them to shut up as soon as they post.  98% of the time I bet you'd be doing a public service.  Heyyyyy...I bet VP would pay for that, since there is no 'ignore user' function!  (interPOSTuality!!)

[follow up to my previous one-off]

OK. Let's hypothetically assume for a moment that you're right. What the hell are you trying to accomplish? Moreover, what would we gain by agreeing with your perspective??? Stop being contrarian for the sake of being contrary. I think that thread needs The Fiona to work her magic.

Oh, and since this is the one-off thread, I can't believe I just told another forumite to shut up. Will I get in trouble for a personal attack?

My interpretation is that telling someone to shut up is still coloring within the lines.

Saying, "Shut up, you dried crusty poophead!" would be a violation.

So, you're saying I could post my "shut it and stuff it" comment over there?  Hmmmm...  So very tempting.

I would have agreed if the OP hadn't insisted two or three times, as if that were the only perspective from which to discuss the matter.

If you mean the last few pages here, Pry ... it's in reference to a different thread than where you just posted.

Not intentionally!  Standing O all-round, I say.  And, while we're standing, we can lob rotten tomatoes at the "D.C.P.", too.

It took me longer than it should have to figure out what a 'standing O' was meant to mean.  I automatically thought of a rather different O.  Standing?  Huh?
