Churlish fucker.

How'd you ever catch that? I followed your link and I was staring at the word and still it took me a moment before I noticed the missing "e". Looking at it, I suppose the mind's eye sees what it expects to see so that word still looked "complete" enough to pass an initial cursory visual inspection.

Amazing "get" there, dude.

Southern schools taught us well.

After all, it is "Your all's" not "You're all's".


As in, "Your all's anal retentive thread about spelling and grammar on a message board is indicative of the magnitude of your all's boredom".

To quote Sir Winston Churchill* .... "This is the sort of bloody nonsense up with which I will not put.”

BTW, you still haven't explained the difference between Leno level humor and Kimmel level humor.


I'm still waiting...
I think I can help you out, Mikey. I believe leno level humor is the way that Leno tells jokes, and Kimmel level humor is the way that Kimmels Uncle Frank tells jokes.

How that correlates to your style of posting is not an area I'm willing to discuss right now*





* = mgo may have his head up his ass on this one, because there is no clear correlation between you and the jokes of the late night talk show dudes. You don't have a show, for one. ;)

His most recent thread, the one about Colorado, that one had me scratching my head and wondering to myself about m2, "Dude, just how old are you anyway? Shouldn't you be well beyond stuff like this by now??"

That's just referring to the content of the post, nevermind his "stylized" grammar and spelling.


Here here.


Doh!!!

No, see, this is an angle that all of you are running with. Never at any point did I name myself the official spelling/grammar checker of this place. Go back, and re-read carefully. Again, my point was simply that I was "officially" making it "cool", or "popular", once again, to dish out spelling/grammar smack under the provision that I provided - as a joke of course. You know how a tard often goes to the, "grammar smack? That's weak!" card when he completely butchers a post after attempting to "get over" on someone's intelligence? Well, I'm simply claiming this is a weak bail out, and it should be perfectly acceptable to combat back with grammar/spelling smack (in this situation). Never did I say I was going to start "going after people" with a dictionary, a thesaurus and an english text book. Just because you guys decided to take it literally (for some reason) doesn't mean I should have to exercise your newly created position for me.

I really don't understand what the backlash is about, because I never attacked anyone directly about their spelling/grammar. I merely attempted to construct a humorous post about why I think we should bring back the acceptance of grammar/spelling smack (again, under the situation I provided). I was also looking for an excuse to smack the tards in my initial post. This was simply an idea to carry out that impulse. If you really, truly believe that I expect perfection out of every post "or else", then you completely missed the point, and that really isn't my problem.

Lastly, I never said I was exempt from being smacked back either. If I smack someone about their misuse of the english language, and fuck up myself during the process, then I certainly deserve what's coming to me.

As Magoo mentioned, everyone makes the occasional mistake, and this is one I commit every now and then. Even had DrDouchetwat, of all people, point it out to me once. But that was before Mgo officially made it cool to run spelgram smack, so that made him a dick at the time. Well, more of one than usual, anyway.

That's it. I'm only buying 1 jar of your sauce instead of the 7 pallets I intended on buying.

Did you buy one?

Someone bought one and I don't know if it was someone from the boards or just a random ebayer. I actually sold quite a few to random ebayers which was encouraging.

No, but I plan on it, especially if 88 says it's the best sauce he has ever had. Are they still up on ebay?

I just bought one of each.
You guys all need to sack up and get the 3 jar variety pack.
Let's make IndyFrico's Flaming Hot BBQ Sauce the #1 seller on eBay!!
