I've got a little story for you, more of a narrative I guess. My main character is say "Joe S". He has a wife named, oh... Mary. Joe's nemesis is um.... Starman.
Mary enters the room to find Joe in his boxers and T-shirt, a prominent grape juice stain on his right leg. Mary is feeling frisky and nuzzles up to Joe. Joe says, "not now honey, I've got to flame a newb!". Joe cracks his fingers and begins to type. Mary asks, "what does flame a newb mean, honey?". He answers, "that's where someone says something dumb and we that know better call him names and stuff. Here, check it out!"
Mary reads the thread. She smiles occasionally at the wit and charm of Starman. She lets herself fantasize about a romantic liaison with Starman. She looks at her husband's eager face.
"Do you realize that in your haste you've been flaming him for making points that you actually agree with?" she asks.
Mary watches as her husband's eyes glaze over.
"I mean, he says it right here, and again here, and then you counter with the same point? And here, you actually admit it in print!"
Mary looks at the man she married, hoping for a glint of recognition. Joe thinks about cheese.
"Did you see here where I called him "kid"?" he says.
Mary shakes her head and leaves the room. Joe plays Europe's Final Countdown to get in the flaming zone.
WOW! Now you really put me in my place! I think I will go sell my house now, quit my job and live the life of a bum all because of your post.
Mildly (and I do mean that losely) entertaining but I guess if I was such a boob as to argue the same point as you for post after post (apparently SO unaware that my wife "Mary" would then fantsize about you) then you, KNOWING you were are even more of one???? Again, clouded with what you think is rapier wit you've failed to see what my argument was, is and will continue to be. Good luck with the airline pilot search as I feel this has become a total waste of my time and yours. Oh I see Wikipedia is calling.....
