Are you suggesting he transports himself into the next section of the discourse by means of a generally unliked and ridiculed means of personal transportation? LolLolLol



*segue (at least for me)


For everyone who can spell.



I was going to link this, but there is imminent danger of it circulating in the (North American) vernacular so much to the extent that it may well supplant the officially accepted spelling of the word. I am all for English as an incredibly dynamic and organic entity (it is, after all, my bread and butter), but there are some changes that just stick in my craw...call me old-fashioned if you will.

It's the equivalent of calling someone a hacker because he killed you in an FPS, people of simple mind will always find an excuse.

I remember having that happen. Banning from servers cause they think I am cheating.

Folks who use that sort of logic have 2 choices:

- they died because you were better
- they died because you cheated

Their low self esteem and/or limited brain capacity has trouble dealing with the former and thus it has to be the latter.

I prefer to think of it as immaturity and ego that makes that decision for people. It's only as you grow that you realise you aren't a special snowflake.
