Silly- I even said that. There is of COURSE a motive for putting Brees in the wrong I said that miles back. Just as he has that motive for putting me in the wrong. Just as YOU quite obviously have an "urgency" for putting me in the wrong- which is obvious in every post you write to and about me and my posts (and I have the same "urgency" for you too, smooch).

It's WWF for ideas. Body slams are what this thread is about. Of course I wasn't making up what Brees implied, nor was I fabricating when I said it takes a certain amount of hostility to make those kind of "jokes" about people. It was simply my honest perception that you don't make those kind of jokes about people, out of the blue, unless you are pissy. (and if you will recall he also called Cosmic "slow" for not getting his nasty little joke) Brees specified the meaning of his own "joke":

>cos...please except my apology. I wasn't trying to make a joke to someone
else about you so that we could have a laugh at your expense.

I understood the content of your post about the school yard. I thought my
tease at you would be so obvious that you would get it and have fun with it.
Apparently you still don't get it so I'll try to explain it. Not that it will necessarily
seem funny after being explained.

Your comment about the school yard was referencing your experience (as a
child)...my "tease" was implying that this episode was resent (as an adult on
a playground). So the implication (tease) is that you were attacked by the
kids (as an adult) for trying to push drugs or molestation or something. Of
course that is obviously not what you meant which is why I thought it ok to
play with you. I am not saying its hillarious but its not making fun of anything
that is really about you, so there is no reason to feel offended or hurt unless
you are looking for excuses. Now if you go back and read my comments you
might get it, maybe not. <

I don't find that very indirect, Neo. Perhaps you need to look that word up.

The whole thing is particularly humorous in light of Brees' own little treatise on nasty jokes that are at the expense of other people. Did you read that Neocon? What do you think of it? Is is just a bit hypocritical? Cosmic has such an excellent memory for what people have posted in the past. He doesn't seem a bit slow to me.
