Yes, we get it. You say lots of stupid stuff just to piss people off.
Ha ha ha. Is that the laughter you were desperately going for?
You start six different threads in a row, all of which say nothing. Ha ha ha.
You use a lot of caps and you butt into threads just to ruin them with your "hey, fuck you" gibberish.
We get it! Huzzah and kudos to your... uh... witty repartee.
But what do you really gain by doing it over and over and over? Ruining board after board with it? You've shown off your trick... you can post all day and swear a lot and talk about nothing and get a good chunk of misspellings in there. So we've all seen.
Don't you find yourself experiencing the diminishing returns? That everytime you're a complete and unrepentant jackass to a bunch of total strangers in a way you could never be in real life without getting your ass thrown out of the building... doesn't that thrill get a little bit smaller every time?
What's the marginal utility of being an asshole on the internet? Is a whole fucking lot really all that more useful than a smidge? I'd imagine that most of the kick comes in the first one or two times.
And this is what, the five-hundredth time?
I don't understand the pleasure you get from doing the same thing over and over and over again. The only thing I can think of that's continuously nice no matter how often you do it is sex.
And if you get a sexual pleasure from ruining people's ability to enjoy an internet messageboard, ew, that's kinda creepy.
Minus kinda.
