Burger wars 2056

Chris McGonnell

Of course it is. Your "guess" I mean.

I see you're even more moronic and ignorant than your dear, dear friend. For a brief sojourn int fact, not only is fat not a "filler," but if you knew the remotest scintilla about food and cooking, you'd know how essential it is for good flavor, mouthfeel and cooking processes. It's obvious that you've bought into the nonsense where fat becomes a four letter word.

Ground round steak isn't a very good burger. Not enough fat, usually. So poor flavor. It holds together just fine, like *all* ground meat does.

So, what you "consider" is supremely unimportant and, beyond that, a clear declaration of just what an ignorant - if clumsily antagonistic - buttwipe you are. And I mean that in the nicest possible, um place...

f***wit. Oh, what fun it is to trade meaningless insults tendered for the pure sake of flaming. Except you *are* a f***wit.

So sayeth the cosmically clueless McGonnell. Here's a very, extremely simple fact for you... You.

I see you went to the same reading clbuttes as Stacia. I bet the snoring didn't keep you awake, either. I really like you rookie flamers who try to run with the big dogs. Here, a few tips:

1) Try to make the insults at least in the same neighborhood as the truth. Otherwise, it just comes across as incompetent, juvenile belligerence; kinda like "nyah, nyah." You know the respect that gets. 2) Try to interject a modicum of wit, rather than merely thudding your way around. Makes you look more like a person who can actually think and reason, and more important, duel. 3) Wordplay is important. I realize your limitations here, but try to follow along. Using precise language, unusual constructions, rhetorical devices and broad vocabulary sets your flamees back a bit. Typically, as you and Stacia so cleanly and so unfortunately have demonstrated, it can also baffle and overwhelm the children forcing them to the "Oh, yeah...?" school of repartee. 4) Do take a moment to see who it is you're going after. You might be - in this case, are - over your head. 5) Consider your audience. If they're like you cutely boisterous kibology folk, almost anything can fly across the screen and have it be acceptable, maybe even considered clever. So your posts here in the past couple days say. The groups with the grownups see things differently. More critically. Your infantile panty-wetting looks like, well, panty-wetting. 6) Don't think that everybody else goes to science fiction and comic book conventions, too. Or posts picture with cutesy captions.

I bet that's why she scurried off and hasn't replied to the avalanche, the earthquake, the tsunami, the near-biblical devastation of her abbreviated thoughts and her minuscule knowledge about, um, everything.

Much as yourself, should you try to continue trifling with me. The next post will not have this sweetly gentle and warmly moderate tone. None of this meekness and charity. Unlike this note, I won't turn the other cheek and be so self-effacing. Your call...

As if...
