[quote name="Entropy Stew"][quote name="Zseni"]Well you made three points in that mess, I'll take them one by one: 1. "What?" I said, "you're poor, crazy, unemployed, and incoherent."[/quote] "There are no American infidels in Baghdad. Never!" [quote]2. "I'm not poor or unemployed or incoherent." Yes, you are![/quote] "I blame Al-Jazeera - they are marketing for the Americans!" [quote]3. "You're fat!" Your food? Your drugs? My taxes pay for them. You're not acting like you're very grateful. [/quote] "The authority of the civil defense ... issued a warning to the civilian population not to pick up any of those pencils because they are booby traps. I am not talking about the American people and the British people, I am talking about those mercenaries.... They have started throwing those pencils, but they are not pencils, they are booby traps to kill the children." [quote]Let me anticipate your next round here:[/quote] "I can assure you that those villains will recognize, will discover in appropriate time in the future how stupid they are and how they are pretending things which have never taken place." [quote]1. "I'm not poor or unemployed or incoherent." CATTLEBIRDS! That makes you hungry, yet you can't eat or else your abdomen explodes. Also, did you know that your feathers and soda pop can tabs aren't actually buying the coffee? Those nice girls at the Starbucks just feel sorry for you.[/quote] "What they say about a breakthrough [in Najaf] is completely an illusion. They are sending their warplanes to fly very low in order to have vibrations on these sacred places . . . they are trying to crack the buildings by flying low over them." [quote]2. "You're fat!" Yes, I'm a planet. I'm orbiting ballast. Only space can support my tremendous bulk. But I'm still not poor, crazy, unemployed, or incoherent, and Ray is still wrong. And so are you.[/quote] "They are sick in their minds. They say they brought 65 tanks into center of city. I say to you this talk is not true. This is part of their sick mind." [quote]Your first round was way better. You took it too far with the word by word response. I mean there was good stuff in there but it just went on way too long. Timing, that's what you lack. You've got plenty of witty repartee, but no sense of when to start or stop interjecting it. Brevity etc. etc. I have to give you credit for not flipping out into an episode of psychotic rage like BDR, though. Or writing for as many yawning reams as Ray. And you didn't try to dress up last century's lines like those two. All in all a more dignified showing. Anyway good try but you lose, horribly.[/quote] <center><img src="http://www.welovetheiraqiinformationminister.com/images/Al-Sahaf.alsahaf.jpg"> <font size="+2">Who loves ya, baby?</font></center> -/ES/-[/quote]
