I don't care if you are approaching the Clublodge.  Please, please, please, let it die.

One too many metaphors of that type, that's all.

If only I had studied poetry in college so that I learned the proper forms, but alas I did not.

Please do not build any bridges.

C'mon.  What troll wouldn't like to move into a bridge constructed by such a fabulous poet?

I'm not questioning your poetry.  It's the lack of the poetry class that indicates you haven't been properly trained as an engineer.

Hence the offer to build bridges for the trolls who have stopped amusing us.  If I do it out of nice heavy stone, then the resulting collapse would squish the trolls and save us some headaches later.

Ah, the trolls live under the bridges, but there is colateral damage when the regular people are the ones driving across.  If you did that, they would take away your iron ring.

Not all bridges have vehicle traffic and think of the extra people employed to undam the river after every fall of the scenic footbridge. 

What?  You thought I would build multiple bridges instead of hosing off the stones and reassembling them for the next occupant?

OK, a private railroad bridge, and we'll send in penguin engineers for the Baldwin. 
<10 points for the first person who knows what that refers to>

Well, obviously I do, but I gather I'm disqualified.

Jeee-eee-sus.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

What a hopeless freaking moron.

I mean, do you, like print off posts that reference you (or your puppets) and highlight the text and get all "there's hidden meaning here" in other posts and tack s*** to the walls and tie it with colored pins and yarn and crap.  That'd make a good poll entry, huh?

You also left out the bit about how you're "unusually gifted"

Can't make no headway on them comps lately, huh?

Darlin, you're the dictionary definition of "loser."

Hmmm.  Much of this last page takes some of the fun out of what has been my favorite thread of late.

But not this:

I knew the leftover oil from that earlier match would come in handy !

This part makes me giggle, and fills me with longing all at the same time.

Why do I get the creepy feeling that it was a really, really bad idea for me to have replied to that thread?

Something like that, yes.  I've locked all the doors and turned all the lights on in the house.
