Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.

Yeah my point was "Shut the fuck up, you're embarrassing yourself". I thought that was pretty clear :)
Yeah, so once again you feel the need to put words in my mouth. I'm guessing because you realize that you had no actual point to make to begin with.
So no, I'm not embarrassing myself. If you think I should feel embarrassed for saying that it's a bad thing to harass people, then you're a fucking idiot. I'd be more embarrassed to be caught defending or justifying such shitty behavior.
oh god shut the fuck up, take a telling.
Nah.

Clearly it bothers you not getting the last word in, despite having nothing to say to begin with. I hope being obnoxious is fulfilling to you, either way.
Have a nice day.
Will you be providing it?
You're the one making the scatilogical requests over here, not me.
So that's a confirmation, then?
I'll take that as a yes.
You forgot the > that time. Now it just looks like you're saying the thing instead of quoting me saying the thing, silly!
Oh, maybe you are saying the thing now. It's hard to tell, since your entire comment history contains zero substance whatsoever, so I can't really discern when you're trying to actually communicate.
Oh no, not at all. Nobody's reading this, nobody cares. Besides, I already got the only word in as far as this conversation is concerned, since you never actually had anything to say at all in the first place.
You see, I've been on the internet a long time. I can always out-petty you. I have nothing to gain, but nothing to lose, either.
I'm here and replying, but not bothered or angry, and not trying to get the last word in. But some pesky "1" keeps showing up in my notifications, and it's my duty as a certified Good Boy of the Internet to never leave a fellow Lemming hanging!
And your comment history is under 1 page, wasn't exactly deep research. The question of "who even is this nerd?" was answered pretty quickly.
I don't see you as a mod of any community.
What, you mean the comment that was removed?
Neither is posting the Hot Fuzz "shame" gif in response to a CEO being named.
Guess we're not so different after all.
It's not. What it is, is on-brand for you, though. Justifying the mistreatment of others has kinda been your whole "thing" so far.
You seem to be the one that's mad.
Not mad.
This thread has now occupied 90% of your comment history, tho. Isn't that neat? For me, you're a blip on my radar; but for you, I'm nearly your entire account. Kinda makes you look obsessive.
