    No, your exact quote was "I don't know if I'd consider it witty." So you weren't talking about someone else or you just don't know the difference between words like "I" and words like "others".

    Anyway, after this back and forth, I will withdraw my comment that you are witty and change it to you were flippant.

    flippant- lacking

    witty- good intellectual capacity, clever.


    Don't shortchange yourself, there are plenty of those on the board just dieing for the opportunity to do that to you. Don't help them out.

    Oh, and by the way, when you're suspended, it gives you very general reason why you were given the boot. For me, it just said "Attack," or something similar. I had no idea what post had caused the problem, and as it turns out, I had put the fat guy .gif six hours before the ban came down.

    I recommended the EC PM users before suspending them so the offender can actually learn from their mistakes.

    They didn't respond.
    Good to have you back Johnny Lingus.

    This makes no sense.

    Good to be back.

    We must currently be experiencing the George Clooney/Chris O'Donnell era of the Lingo Legacy.
