The other day I posted Webster's definition of the words "churl" and "churlish". Pay close attention, OK?
churl - n. 1: a medieval peasant 2: rustic, countryman 3: a rude, ill bred person 4: difficult to work with or deal with: INTRACTABLE
churlish - adj. 1: of or resembling a churl: VULGAR 2: characteristic of or befitting a churl: RUDE 3: difficult to work with or deal with: INTRACTABLE synonym: see BOORISH
It should be obvious to anybody reading this that this guy isn't a real idiot who's on drugs or anything like that. He's just pulling the wool over your eyes by pretending to be an obnoxious newbie. Pretending to be one is almost as obnoxious, but you should know what your getting with this guy.
Quite frankly when I saw the word "vulgar" in the definition, I had to laugh.
