You can ask, but that doesn't neccessarily mean I'll answer...
...unless you are Irish- I always have time for the Irish. |

I missed what you posted but if it was "Why the f__k do we need another one of these threads?" I agree with you- we don't. I'm just jumping on the dogpile.
I think that this thread will quickly drop off the first page of the forum, and that's the way it should be. |

Honest answer, or arrogant S.O.B. answer?
(or perhaps they are one and the same...)

It certainly is because i thought you were asking me who was the bigger #$%#$%#$ rather than who was the most arrogant S.O.B.
And I already know I'm arrogant but I find it interesting that A) you think that you're not, yet B) you left off the defintion of arrogant most likely to apply to you:
2 : proceeding from or characterized by arrogance <arrogant manners, a feeling or an impression of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or presumptuous claims>

| Could you tell us about the cars and motorcycles you've owned? There's nothing quite like listening to an arrogant SOB talk about the cars and motorcycles he's owned. |

If follows that if 1. doesn't apply then 2. cannot apply. Being superior is not being arrogant. Thinking you are superior when you are not is arrogance. Being superior and trumpeting it is arrogance.
None apply. I will just as quickly cite my own faults as my strengths, and never just to do so.
You may disagree, but you'll be wrong because I never am.
See?
