Am I A Righteous Asshole Or What?

"Righteous" or "self-righteous"?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Oh-sorry.....

Self-righteous, definitely.

I think that is the perception, anyway.

EDIT: No, wait-

If I describe myself as a self-righteous asshole, that would imply a lack of seriousness.

I will stick to my original formulation.

I still wanna know why MediaSlayer considers you the BEST member - or does he mean another member?

it's just preference, ukman
i'm sure if you said who your favorite member is, i would disagree. it's just preference.
i like j2k because he is a positive thinker, he doesn&#39;t get "rowdy"<<<post bad topics, flame, and he has good manners. for some reason i always take a liking to people with good manners. also hes funny, and he knows how to get under billy dean&#39;s skin.

but like i said it&#39;s personal preference, that&#39;s why i said "some will disagree"

I suppose the question would be- "Is your anus in accord with divine or moral law?"

You would be the best judge of that, I should think.

Certainly not the best member, surely?

For which mis-guided sentiment I thank him, though.

[MediaSlayer]

so true, j2k how could i have been so careless? and to think I was accused of being pedantic

Thx MS - i was just curious - ive noticed those qualities too. I&#39;m sure that we could think of some members we both liked

BTW - BD isnt as bad as most people think. Ive had some good help from him just recently, even after those arguments we had. It was help i really needed and he just offered.

Can I mix and match?

I&#39;ll take "A stupid , incompetent, detestable anus with an outraged sense of justice and/or morality".

Not to be too picky.

After picking with him a little bit, I even offered some advice in this thread. as you can see, no blood or anything like that. judge for yourself, i&#39;ll tell you though, i don&#39;t currently dislike him.
