Default What do you people

Hehe, you guys are hilarious. So addicted to proving the other guy wrong.

For anyone who cares, I was simply pointing out irony. The post may or may
not be on topic, the poster may be right or wrong, it doesn't matter, the
irony still exists. Irony isn't a fancy way of saying someone is wrong.

I thought highlighting the irony would make someone smile (I even threw in a
Simpsons reference). My bad.

And to pre-empt the inevitable post that points out that the post was
actually not technically ironic then I will pre-concede to that as I am not
an English major. But is smelled like irony.

That is all, you may resume bickering now.

Mmmmm, delicious irony.

think this has to do with boating? Take this where it belongs.



Although the term "asshole" probably didn't win any friends, a comment
about the content of the group IS on-topic. Far more so than all the
OT nonsense that goes on here. The delicious irony is that you are
wrong, at least in general netiquette.

For those that have difficulty understanding, "topics" were
established to define the area of discussion. The fact that
individuals choose to ignore the topic doesn't justify the action.

...carry on.
noah
