Quotes

I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much.

It is not that I'm growing less popular, it's that my appeal is becoming more selective.

I love your quotes.

Even when you've ripped them off. ;-)

Adam,

If memory serves me well, you yourself ripped that "dummy" word from another post. If only I could remember the name of its fine author... I'm sure he could teach ya a thing or two.

P.S.: So, how about my insults contest then?

"No contest."
Does that mean I win by default? Come on, you have more wits than that, you mushroom-brained oyster-butt. Remember the rules I stated in the "White/Red" snow picture thread : witty sarcasm, no lewdness allowed. Got that, you dummy with no strings?

Now, fire at will, smoker's-corpse-breath. Gimme your warts, I mean, your worst.

You know, in Lebanon, one actually looks forward to trading insults without the perspective of a firearm being drawn. Of course, most local insults violate the no-lewd rule... [Parental advisory] Although the one about the camel was pretty creative.

Additional info : all "classic" pirate talk is permitted, provided it is understandable. That means, no posting in the Vito Corleone fontface, got it?

Yeah, I'm sure you got it. You're a Smart Adam, Alec. ;-p
