Being a Responsible Adult Really SUCKS! Warning: Grown Man Pouting

[Spidey]

Nothing to argue about.

The content of your post suggests otherwise.  You even asked me a question.  Argument it is then.  Let's make sure we follow the ground rules of internet disputes.  I'll just keep going until I get the last word, until you decide your moralizing interjection has taken the thread off topic and it's better to just lock it, until I get a time-out, or until someone gets compared to Hitler.  Sound good?  Then let's go for it.  

Where did I say, much less suggest, you deserved to have retarded children?

Uh, when you said to be careful of what you wish for.  Come on, don't play dense.  But if I misinterpreted what you meant, then you're getting a bit of your own medicine -- an over-sensitive reaction to an otherwise throw-away comment in an internet post.  Because if your Victorian sensibilities are offended by my joke, then you're going to have to be prepared to have an equally thin-skinned response.  It's only fair.  That said, in truth, I wasn't even remotely offended by your comment but since you wanted to pick a fight, I'm only happy to oblige.

As for saying that you didn't find my joke funny, curiously you didn't say that.  I suspect that you wouldn't have wasted the time to post "I don't find that funny."   Instead, you posted something entirely different, and you posted it publicly.  You could have avoided an argument by either ignoring my post or sending me a PM.  But instead you chose to pick a fight when you knew I'd respond.  Are you hoping that it would/will escalate?  Or do you want to be the responsible adult here and just let it go?  Clearly, I'm not planning on taking on that role.

Your turn.

Now now boys.  Remember, I am the one without a cool seat and with a very overpriced air conditioner.  Let's not turn this into anything ugly, or I will be forced to push this thread toward a loud vs. quiet exhaust argument, and those always end ugly. 

Wait a minute, this is all The Don's fault.  Don, see what you have caused!

I take full responsibility for this, keep going with the internet argument though, jebus I laugh when reading some of this stuff. You blokes definitely have a good sense of humor, lol

He never shows the underside of the tail..  I bet it's just like the one I bought, without a pin to lock it into the latch. 

I ended up making one.  At least now I know what it might be worth, when I make up my mind to sell it 

The pin comes off your stock seat.

HEY,  who's side are you on ?  Uh...I mean...The Don says thanks, pretty helpful info!

Did I menton, I'm not bitter.

No one deserves that. I just find your 'silly joke' anything but funny, which is all I said.

Nothing to argue about.

I'm typically not much on people who are politically correct, but I'm definitely with you on this one.  Some of the things I used to joke about I now realize were tasteless and/or offensive...some of it was realizing those targets that seemed like an easy laugh were issue that affected real people, the rest was maybe just growing up.  Really put a crimp in my sense of humor for a while...
