Giving “flamer” a whole new meaning…

In the end, it’s just the absurdity of the inane argument.
Dear Register chracks,
What the hell has happened to you cretinous journalists? You’re recent wad of crap about 419 and 420 really is thick short of pigshit. First you put them in the wrong order, 19 comes before twenty, but obviously you never were able to [...]

As if myspace wasn’t enough…

For the longest time, I’ve been trying to figure out how to number your comments in Blogger.
