I don't feel like I attacked him but oh well.

That was strange.
Listen man, you do have my condolences, but I recommend you take a few day's break before posting again. Your brain is most likely a turbo-charged soup of chemicals right now, so just focus on the natural grieving process.
If you have any serious concerns, are being harassed, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me via PM

Really with that? OP, you thanked, like, a thousand people for their responses, got butthurt by only a couple of people, and you're going to rage quit? That's really silly.
Anyway, I really am sorry for your loss. I was close with my grandmother too, who died at 95. I also "knew" my dad was going to die when he did. He was also in hospice when he died (I was with him there for six days before he died), and I got the feeling when I realized he was coming very close to the day my boyfriend's father died three years earlier. Of course, I don't really think I "knew" it... it was only a coincidence that they died on the same day.
Hang in there; it's hard to lose a loved one.

These folks accepted me with open arms when I started posting here last year. I didn't agree with several, over different issues, and that was with long-term, high-post-count members. But generally, I didn't come in swinging a purse.
A little courtesy goes a long ways.
Not me. I still hate you. >:C

I completely accept the fact that what I am suggesting is impossible, that is why I have a problem with it! My first post may have been lacking in details, but additional details would not have convinced any of you of ANY possibility of truth to what I am saying, but those details are what caused the difficulty FOR ME...
I'm sorry about you grandma, but that doesn't justify rudeness. You asked a question, you didn't get the answer you liked, and you probably should have been a little more courteous, not because Steel Curtain is an "elite" member here (I mean good lord, the guy's a Steelers fan!), but because you're less likely to run into exactly these sorts of problems.
Just a thought ... carry on.

That point doesn't work in your favor.

Here you go:
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Baahahaha Goddammit, Stimbo!
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I don't get it. You old people suck. I don't know who that Cliff is.
