Start your own thread on yeast infections, don't ignore me when this is my thread!!!!!!!!! And don't call me a man becuase I find the Diva cup absolutely disgusting, it is!!

I also don't like it when people correct your spelling, thats so annoying.

I'd put a peridod there. Make it into two sentences. Of course you'd have to capitialize the "d."

Quote:
becuase


That should actually be spelt "because."


I confess to being amused.

On a thread about communicating in Korean, one of the participants went:



at me for writing 싶 instead of 십 for the number 10.

Now let me tell you a Bible story (II Kings 2: 23-24):

Quote:
And he [Elisha] went up from thence unto Bethel: and as he was going up by the way, there came forth little children out of the city, and mocked him, and said unto him, Go up, thou bald head; go up, thou bald head.

And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the LORD. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.


Someone told that story on a thread about religion.
I had never heard that story before, but a couple of the other participants had.
So they mocked me and reviled me, and spoke all manner of evil against me.
I wish I could send two she bears after THEM!

That's what I like about this forum:
you have to be perfect and all-knowing.

I wonder if nolegirl noticed that yingwenlaoshi misspelled "period."
If she did, it was very forgiving of her not to get back at him.
Perhaps God should have appointed her as a prophet instead of Elisha.

Yes, you and peppermint have been very helpful. I think I will bring my straightner and blow dryer. Or I might just start another thread on whether or not to bring my hair dryer and straightner, I am extremely indecisive.

What to do, what to do... well maybe I'll just bring my blow dryer and not my straightner, or maybe I will not bring either and cut all of my hair off like Britney Spears and then I will join the skinheads and ride around on a john deere tractor and get a giant cross tattoo on my back and drink a Nadi Light out of a can while sitting on my front lawn in a couch watching Nascar why playing the confederate theme song and shouting the south will rise again.... or I will just bring the blow dryer.

But I'm not annoyed because I am one of the omniscient ones you speak of. Don't you know what a peridod is?

Where was the option for just plain old trolling, blatant and undisguised?
