I'd wager it's because it's stupid, pointless, and you are wrong.


Yes, this whole thread has been pointless and stupid; however, I am
certainly not wrong.


Right on one, wrong on one. Not too bad, keep working on it.

Nevertheless, no one has agreed with you.


Well, technically, that's not true, as Wolfgang *seems* to agree with me.
However, I will give you that no one else has agreed nor disagreed with me.
Now, how many folks have e-mailed you to tell you how right you are, as I
have yet to see a single post, from the hordes of fans you comand,
congradulating you on your grasp of the English language and it's elements
of style?


I haven't even seen one person agree with you. I didn't ask anyone to
say that they agreed with me. Funny thing is, this post of yours did
apparently spur someone to email me privately. Yeah, yeah, I'm sure I'm
a liar.....keep the insults coming.


You want me to go do your homework for you? No thanks. Besides, my bet
is that you are reading something wrong. My guess is that you are
misreading the word "That" and are attributing it to the wrong concept.


Remember, you said that you were, "Not sure I said **anything** about name
calling."


That's just pitiful...."Anything"

Yes, I said it's wrong/ignorant to call someone names when you
[Opie/Wolfie] were wrong.



Now your just lyin'!


Straight out of the Wolfgang playbook. If your (or you're) argument is
failing, call your opponent a liar.


I'll help ya here. It's, "your," in this case. "Your" imparts possession,
as in *it's my argument.* "You're" is a contraction of the two words, you
and are. In the context of the sentence, " If ___ ___ argument is ailing,
call your opponent a liar[,]" "you are" makes no sense, whatsoever. Stick
with "your," for sentences of the same structure and context, in the future!


:-) So what part of "lyin'" do I possess? Bet ya still don't figure it
out. Keep working on that reading and writing ability.



"Tootles" my ass! You'll be back. You just can't save yourself, from
yourself!


Oh don't worry, tootles was just for that message. Keep going, you're
(or your in you're case) doing a great job embarrassing yourself.
