Fight the Conservation of Stupidity!

Goslin, Zenobia, *and* Cope, all stinking up the newsgroup at once. It's
too much work to fight off that much moron juice by myself; not with my
schedule these days. Once again, ladies and gentlemen, it is time to take
applications for an "honorary MSB" - someone who will take up the torch of
the flambee and the MY GODS, BUT YOUR STUPIDITY OFFENDS US ALL (in all caps)
while I continue my corporate rampage.

Who will step to the plate?

Who will be the steward of truth, wisdom, and JUSTICE?

Yet, combined, we don't smell as bad as you.

And I am pissed that I am only third in the list. I obviously am not
doing enough.

Hey, you missed me! For the last two days, people have, with varying
degrees of justification, called my posts stupid. I demand my place with
the others. If it's a seniority thing, then I understand. I'll keep
posting, and you can put me in the next one, in a few months. Do we have
a deal?

Count me out. What I know of 3.5E you could probably fit in a thimble,
and besides, I'm a firm believer in Rule Zero. The way you play at your
house is your own damned business.

It will take years of stupidity for you to rival Cope and Goslin. But
if you keep up with your sloppy command of the facts, you can indeed reach
the pinnacled heights they currently riddle with their feces.

Join the club, man. I try and I try to bait MSB, but it only works
sometimes. Try asking him about lycanthropes and alignment or something.

Methinks the Lady doth protest too much. Your posts guarantees they will
post more, not less, thus producing what you _say_ you want to end.

In the words of Clint Eastwood's character in _Every Which Way But Loose_,
it's time to quit when you get to like the pain.

On the contrary, I just drove one of my enemies into retirement by
making a point of talking to him.

To be honest, I'm rather planning on turning my posting career around at
this early stage, and only being accused of stupidity for my opinions,
rather than for my command of the rules. I expect to be lambasted by all
and sundry for not liking feats very much, when that comes up in
conversation, for example.

Hardly. These people are intellectual pigeons, roosting on dunce caps

The balance of multiclassed spellcasters is good too.

On the subject of epic-level stupidity, Burke hasn't been seen for

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the
leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked,
and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to
danger. It works the same in any country.

I'm sorry Michael, but no one can replace you. You'll just have to
give up those unimportant things that are taking up all your time on
your schedule (CoH), and come back to your true calling of beating
sense into all the lowly tards (not excluding myself) that infect our
newsgroup.
