    Yes.

    Nooooo [censored]!

    Hence the huuuuumor. Didn't I tell you to get a grip?

    Quoted message said:

    Do you disagree?

    Generally.

    Sadly, people are typically idiots who fail to think things through
    and speak in error. It's normally best to disagree with whatever's
    being said. Not a blanket statement at all, but, unfortunately, true
    to a very large degree.

    Quoted message said:

    Are you trying to say you don't know "ersatz"?

    Why would you think it necessary to put that word in quotes?

    Quoted message said:

    It's just a word, and the right one for the situation.

    I strongly suspect that it's not just a word at all, but an attempt on
    your part to sound superior to mask your feelings of inferiority at
    being badgered in this newsgroup.

    I am in total ersatz of your response to Dally!

    So you'd agree, then, that's it's a parody. We just differ on whether
    it's a bad, fake, stupid parody or a funny, insightful parody. Fine.

    Quoted message said:

    Why would you think it necessary to put that word in quotes?

    Because I was referring to a specific word as a noun, rather than using
    it properly in a sentence as an adjective. Does this question mean you
    not only don't know normal English words, but aren't familiar with
    punctuation, either? No wonder you and Queenie kick it up every now and
    then. She's a Grammar Weenie, you're... not.

    LOL, NOW you're being funny. Right? 'Cuz I'm not entirely sure. You
    might really think I'm lording it over you with my fancy words. In
    which case, it shows a whole lot more about YOUR sense of inferiority
    than MY sense of inferiority. (Because, shhhhh, the secret is, I really
    DO speak like this. I used "bathetic" in a sentence out loud at a party
    this afternoon.)

    Quoted message said:

    Why?

    By the way, I'm sorry this seems so adversarial. You were on my case
    about something the other day and I really don't have any particular
    problem with you other than your affinity for feeding trolls. I meant
    to try to be nicer to you... the opportunity just hasn't arisen.

    That's good Om. If you don't humour her she gets apoplectic (in a bathetic

    Agreed.

    Not necessary as the context made it clear. What year was your grammar

    Quoted message said:

    Hmm. (Googles)

    Why would you use bathetic when schmaltzy or hokey work just as well?!
    I won't tell you why and you won't figure it out. That's life.

    Quoted message said:
    Quoted message said:

    Please. Go back and reread the part about idiots who
    fail to think things through and speak in error.

    Why?

    Because, you're spending too much time on the word troll. Troll is a
    perspective thing. The Broken Record is 99 percent troll. Everyone
    else here seems to be just a regular joe, sometimes with good info and
    other times with an axe to grind or a past hurt to be nursed. But,
    troll, troll, troll is heard far too often in this ng, imo.

    [censored].

    Quoted message said:

    You were on my case about something the other day

    I was on your case because you were on MY case. I don't get your troll
    fixation. Probably - although you'll offer a fake laugh or whatever -
    because you've been called that and Dully and whatever else various
    patrons of this ng have thrown at you.

    Quoted message said:

    and I really don't have any particular problem with

    Feeding trolls? It's called post and reply. Again, get a grip.

    just hasn't arisen.

    Hey, don't put yourself out.

    H-h-how will I ever survive if she's not nice to me again?

    I, I, well, I realize I'm being BATHETIC, b-b-but...

    Wait, maybe it's just ersatz bathetic. Never mind.

    You're both imbeciles. It's called Post and Reply. There are no trolls

    And, hey, I realize I haven't been on the best of terms with the both
    of you, but could you see it in your hearts to send me a wedding
    invitation? Because it looks like it's headed in that direction.

    You know, I've lost quite a bit of weight lately, it is starting to worry
    me. In factI haven't eaten for days. I (for one) take Dally's warning
    seriously.

    I promised Dally that I woud not feed the trolls, so excuse my lapse here. I
    really don't think there will be a wedding as first they would have to meet
    and then find something in common other than their dislike of you. Also I
    believe that Dally is already married and she and Mr Cuckold seem to be very
    happy.
