    Dude.
    Just admit it.
    You resorted to one of the lowest tactics available.
    You've really made a complete fool out of yourself.
    In the nick of time too, seeing as how I made such a bonehead mistake as quoting Fraggle...

    Heh.
    Starting a sentence with a conjunction.
    You're lame.

    I'm not Lovecraft.

    And I simply corrected you.
    No need to get your panties in a wad and break out the grammar badge.

    Heh.
    Chortle.
    Snort.

    Show me where I said you were Lovecraft. Oh wait, no, that would be a whole new 2-page mess because you don't even know who you're quoting. Fuck, you'd probably quote someone from a completely different forum this time.

    I will admit that I took a cheap shot when you admit that you are completely incapable of properly employing even the most basic grammar.

    It's simple, Schleebey.
    You tried insulting me by insinuating that I'm not able to string words together like Lovecraft.
    Do try to stay up.

    And you just can't put that grammar badge away, can you?

    You're a good boy, Schleebey.

    Heh.
    Do you have a whistle too?

    You do understand that it wasn't a 'cheap shot'?
    Unless the target was yourself.

    Lame.

    No I didn't. Read it again. Do I really have to explain?

    You are a pretentious hypocrite. You tell us all how you eat Lovecraft and his twisting, awkward sentences for breakfast, and yet you have proved that you can't even read or write properly.

    Hahaha...

    Just stop.
    You're just digging yourself deeper.

    And now you've run out of argument.

    Woops....you're rubbing off on me now.

    Argument?
    What argument?
    I've already said there's nothing to argue about.
    You don't like Lovecraft.
    You don't like Tolkien.
    Now your panties are in a wad because you feel that I've been condescending to you by explaining to you that the Hobbit wasn't the first thing that Tolkien wrote in his created world.
    Then you made a rash choice to insult my grammar which I suspect you're regretting now. If not, you should be.
    And now you just can't quit because you're invested and don't want to seem to be slinking away.

    But, there's no argument?

    What? Should I try to convince you to like Lovecraft? Tolkien? Do you think my heartfelt descriptions of their work would somehow make you think twice about your convictions? (And, I might note, convictions which you seem to hold quite strongly. Even holding the man's choice of "hobbit" against him for some odd reason.)

    What argument?

    Chortle.
    That really was lame, man.
    You do realize, yes?
    I'm sure you do.
    Now you're trying to make light of it. But you know how stupid it was.

    Why should I be regretting that?

    The argument is now that you are a pretentious hypocrite. Do try to keep up.

    Would it be easier for you to understand if I wrote like Lovecraft?

    "Hobbit" is simply a nonsense word he dreamed up one day.

    Because it's incredibly lame.

    What more subjective chatter?

    Funny. I thought you were.
    Evidence.
    Grammar patrol.
    This is evidence both for you being pretentious and also for being a hypocrite as you obviously have a set of brand new clothes fresh from the Emperor's wardrobe.
    Aye?

    Probably be easier if you said what you meant.
    But, I'm sure you meant what you said?
    Even if not literally?

    Maybe so.
    Who cares?

    LOL, if you wanted to stop the argument then "who cares?" was the perfect thing to say.

    It made me realise that I am trying to reason with a twelve year old.

    Bye.

    Reason.
    Heh.
    Is that what you call it?
    Funny.

    Again.
    Reason about what?

    You have only subjective opinion.
    Nothing more.

    Heh.
    Good laugh though.
    Enjoy that shiny badge. It looks good on you.

    Bye bye, officer.
