    That and the whole suicide being verboten thing. That's a one-way trip to Hell for a believer.

    I find it funny that your self esteem issues delude you into thinking I follow DerS around, responding to his posts in an effort to elicit whiny posts from you.
    That's just not the case. What he posted was funny, that is all.

    If I bother you that much: ignore me, report me, keep coming across like a little b!tch, or make a thread about how happy you are.
    It really doesn't matter.

    You guys should get an apartment in Ohio together and laugh at me.
    Sounds like a great idea, that way you can sit around knowing that people are giving you attention.

    No, but a good portion of their job is fund-raising.

    Greed is in everyone.

    If you don't think for a second you wouldn't figure out ways to re-write the rules to benefit yourself once you made it big, you're a fool.

    Poor people loot during disasters, try to comp free stuff at restaurants, use the govt assistance system to their advantage, steal while forgetting/taking advantage of everyone else.

    Rich people organize companies and tax laws to preserve pay, benefits, retention of themselves while forgetting/taking advantage of everyone else.

    When I'm rich I will figure out a way to organize the poor in a way that benefits me beyond laundry and yard services.

    I happened to get 5lbs of USDA butter the other day. My kids friends parents think they are food bank material and go mooch food from the truly poor. They are just cheap. Anyway, they get all this stuff they don't use, so they give it away. I took the butter. I wanted the peanut butter, but they thought it was bad and threw it out. Dumb asses.... it was just separated. I am the 93.37%.

    You contribute literally nothing except lame google articles about obscure stuff that you probably waste your entire day thinking "THIS IS THE ONE. THIS IS THE ONE IN WHICH I WILL FINALLY GAIN THEIR RESPECT" fapping wildly at the idea.

    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

    Butthurt Canadian rants are cute and funny! The moron has had YEARS to put me on ignore, yet he still reads every thread and every post I make.

    I like how he thinks I post here to gain popularity and respect. These are two things he wishes he could have, but that obviously isn't happening.

    I also like how he thinks he hurts me by saying I'm not funny. This is lame attempt at a zing typically made by mouth breathers who have never said anything funny.

    Let me break it down for the semi-retarded.

    Der Schaltwerks:

    1. Doesn't give a **** what people on the internet think of him

    2. Doesn't post here to make friends, become popular or gain respect

    3. Doesn't care if people don't like his threads or posts

    4. Isn't here to receive attention, be a show off or receive validation

    5. Posts here simply for his own amusement.


    If my posts and threads make you angry, do yourself a favor and put me on ignore.
