my threads have hit an all time low **PLEASE READ**

[sundog]

they have dipped beneath my usual bar of mediocrity.

example: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=105x3985268

i do not know if i am more saddened by my recent pedestrian efforts or the willingness of people to actually reply & humor them.

knowing full well the extent of my dilemma, some of you chose to jab and mock me, though i will not mention names:

i sat and watched this crass persecution with silent dignity as you all danced & cackled like a pack of bloodthirsty hyenas.

therefore, i hereby proclaim that i shall not start any new threads for one (1) week.

i may choose to voice my approval of any particular thread at random with a simple :thumbsup: or :thumbsdown: during this week of retribution.

judgments of threads may or may not be based upon creativity or lack thereof.

i also may choose to give a :thumbsup: to a particularly witty response within a thread or sub-thread that has previously been determined to be :thumbsdown: or vice versa.

i also reserve the right to hijack any thread at will & use it as a device to serve my personal motives in any manner i see fit.

duly noted today & filed.

starting now.

you have all been forewarned. :nuke:
