    Is that how it should be? Myself is a reflexive pronoun and really shouldn't be the subject should it?

          I like Mark Grace, but never understood the rep that he was somehow the nicest guy ever. HFN of course is unanimously not an a.h.

              YO's list is terrible. A lot of those people don't even post here anymore. I agree that this place is at least 80% asshole. At least. Sometimes I'm the only civil, Christlike, non-asshole, here.

                  We once had a know-it-all poster who was an LSU fan. He went from super active LDS to Mimosa sipping apostate in a pretty short period of time.

But I'm not trying to "come down" on you or "bring you down." This is totally your opinion and I respect your right to it!

                    *edit: Also, Mark Grace is an asshole by virtue of leaving
                    You're not an ah. I'll add you to the list. One time you mocked me about something or another (not going to a Mitt Romney rally) and I was still sore about it when I made the list. But I'm over it now.

                    For anyone else who criticizes my list, just remember this. I'm just a regular joe, with a regular job. I'm you're average white suburbanite slob.

                      Need I go on? I could probably list another couple dozen more.
                      Your list sucks. I'm not on it. I'm a great person. Though I rarely like to mention it, I worked with the aaronic priesthood for a long period of time.

                      Also when 60% of you time top 5 readily, and repeatedly self-identify as [redacted, bad word], then you know your list sucks.

                      I'm questioning institutegrad's MENSA's status, based solely upon the fact he claims to live in Tacoma.

                        I like the cut of your jib, Institute Grad. I hope you stick around and cleanse this temple.
