Wow. I recognize that carpet. Is there an office in North America that doesn’t have that carpet?

On a completely different subject, should congrats be in order, RunBarbara, for not working in HR anymore?

Jeffrey put in the word “to” too many times.

Sigh. If you’re going to chastise, you MUST be perfect!

Jeffrey, you seem desperately lonely.
You’re not building a fan base, just a lot of people who feel sorry for you and a lot of people that are getting sick of you.

Kudos® Canthz_B for staying above the baiting.

Is it too late for Jeffy’s mother to have an abortion? I know he’s probably at least five, but I think in some cases a 69th month abortion could still be justified.

Hmm, Canthz_b, methinks your compliance with my alleged preference is a bit self-serving, no? As Dana Carvey’s Church Lady would say “How conveeeeennnniiient!”

I was questioning your consistency. I see a new thread with many instances of possible oh-my-gosh-so-confusing instances of misspellings and bad grammar. Oh, wait, is it possible they did it on purpose? Hunh.

Bottom line: exactly what medicine do you think it was that I couldn’t or wouldn’t take? The I Only Harrass Newbies Treatment?

How about this? We’ll stick to the classic routines you and I know best. If I let you watch Froofy the Dog will you bake me a chocolate cake? I’ll sing you a song!

Hey, Jeffrey!

Wanna fight with me? I have nothing better to do tonight.

amy_d, your logic is impeccable! Your comment about ‘not letting it go’ is particulary relevant since you undoubtedly know about other PANners wondering where my words of wit are. Just look at it this way, I’m building a fan base.

Did I need to impugn your personality to do it or insult you? Nah, I just presented the facts as I saw them. That is a great childish way of explaining it, though. The whole ‘that you’re an asshole is a truism and needs no reasons’ business is adorable! I’m not buying the ‘long-suffering-me’ act from your last post, either. Does anyone have an imitation-leather fainting couch?

I’ve never been accused before of cowering in fear just because I don’t attack someone who says that attacks are unwarranted, but what ever floats your boat is fine with me.

My days here are many.

You’re still acting like an asshole, however you choose to explain it. The asshole comes in not being able to let it go and continuing to harp on people days after the initial event.

I could not stay silent anymore.

I will not continue to debate my opinion of you. You can change it by just relaxing and making funny or intelligent or interesting comments about the notes. Or you can continue to be an asshole. The choice is yours.

Hmm. I guess I’m going to have to disagree with your version of the facts there, PANner amy_d! I started the action recently by letting someone know their purported quote from one of the greatest movies of all time (“Office Space”) was in error. It wasn’t as simple as a spelling or grammar mistake. The quote was less than half right. Sheesh! You’d have thought I unleashed the hounds of hell from the way the hormonal reaction was channeled into the vitriolic response (just perfect for the P-A atmosphere). Sorry if someone was on the rag, but I just feel if something’s worth quoting, they should do it right! Some of us don’t need imdb.com to provide research for us, we’ve watched the movie and actually remember because the line is, well MEMORABLE. In the cranky retort I was accused of not knowing how to nest (despite the fact that I’ve nested before and will chose to do so when I desire). And then it escalated from there. So, what “acting like an ass” behavior is it you’re referring to? Or will your post about that be similarly unfunny again? Or will you cower in fear like Canthz_B who thinks he can administer medicine? (I’ve got your puddin’ pops right here, gramps!)

In fact, I’m not altogether sure you understand the point, amy_d. Isn’t the point of posting to have folks pay attention? Was that a real tube-lashing I gave Wade by calling him polite and accuracy-riddled? Damn that was harsh! In short, if you continue to question and be curious about deeper meanings to messages I fear your days here are numbered, as complex humor seems to bemuse* the locals.

If you really need to clear the air and avoid a dog-pile, feel free to ask folks to be consistent in their paying attention to context.

*this does NOT mean ‘amuse’
