To mrgoat:
Yes, I did get a bee in my little bonnet. Maybe I owe you and the other GF readers an apology for the rant.

the ramblings of someone with too much time on his hands
You got that right! Excluding opening and closing salutations, quote attributions and quotes (and the text that Dustin S. deleted from one of your posts), heres the count thus far (i.e., prior to this post) on this thread:
mrgoat:
23+ posts,
180+ lines of text ...
and counting.... magicam:
1 post,
14 lines of text
Where does that put you on the too much time on his hands scale?

I'm afraid this thread (and me) has been alarmingly misinterpreted by you....
Whats alarming is, on more than one occasion on this forum, you have made derogatory remarks about alt.tragic and the caf, yet you dont recognize that
on this thread you sound like one of the very bozos you seem to be mocking on those other forums. Thats what I was referring to by asking you to take your hypocritical bulls**t elsewhere.
Whats alarming is that you dont have the self-respect or self-awareness to come clean after being politely and diplomatically invited to do so (courtesy of Jim Maloney). Then again, as Jim has shown considerable restraint with you, maybe I can learn something by his example you certainly seem incapable of doing so. Frankly, Im
amazed at the amount of grace being shown to you by others here, given that, with every post you make, it becomes more and more clear that you didnt make your post simply because you thought the Garfield video was funny. You keep slinging ca-ca at all of us here and Im the only guy who seems to have had enough of it. Perhaps Im flat out wrong about getting on my high horse.

Where did I write that?

... Some people 'get' Garfield, some don't. You don't.
How did you draw that conclusion? Where did I say something negative about Garfield? All I did was request (in vain, admittedly) that you stop being a hypocrite on this thread.

... what would make a clip of someone doing a Sven routine so viral? Something for us all to think about ...
Maybe a couple dozen people on this thread saying, basically, its the entertainment, stupid! isnt conclusive enough for you, but it says something to me (then again, youre the expert on viral marketing .... ). By the way, not that its going to happen, but itd be nice if you explained how the Garfield video is funny. So far your 21 posts (and counting) all sound remarkably similar, covering topics that you have repeatedly claimed are unimportant.
Finally, (finally)

Man, does your story keep changing. But I seem to be the only one who is bothered by it, so time for me to clam it.
