Good analogy, Cocles. It definitely captures the spirit of Spartan's post. |

I think jumping jacks are when you jump into the air with your arms and legs spread wide (therefore presenting an easier target!)
Cocles, you always say it with such panache. |

Yeah, One bashing by Cocles and you get how things work around here. However, some newbs need multiple bashings. |

I'll come to your aid Spartan.
Stop acting like a dingus and making newbie comments. Read Cocles FAQ and shape up or ship out. The more wussiness you show the more we will attack.

Ok I think I get it; I'm supposed to be self deprciating and a non-wuss, in not so many words.
Here it goes... You guys talk yoyr trash thats cool and even a little fun. After a couple months I'll talk some trash too to those unhip noobs, but for now I'll just take the abuse cause this thread was a little arrogent. And, afterall thats what we all hate about the new guy. |

Uhm, actually, the only run in I had with the almighty cocles, was making a joke about not reading the FAQ - i din't make ask any stupid newbie questions or make any dumb forum post. And i immediately complied when I realized he was serious. Oh, and i was literally roflmao while reading it. It's worth every second.

After reading the FAQ and a few run ins in the forum, I think I have a better understanding of Cocles. Cocles is kinda like Adam Corrolla. He can be mean and condeceding to idiots, yet he remains loveable at the same time, just like Cocles. (For the record I am not calling Cocles loveable.) |
