(and parts of T?).

I can assure you I did not deliberately miss that point... I just missed it. If that really was the point you where trying to make, imo it took you quite a while to articulate it.

I now know, by your words at least, that you did not deliberately miss the sarcasm. If that means you did understand that they where joking or that you didn't is still unclear - I just knwo it wasn't deliberate. 

If you did understand they where joking it raises a lot of questions that I'm not really sure I would like you to answer. But why, why do you keep questioning what was going on with Bart if you know it was a joke? I mean the point you wanted to make about arrogance and "going after the little and less worthy people" (or how you now what to phrase it), lying etc. would have made so much more sense in connection to a thread and an event where this was actually going on. THAT, would have proven you point (if it ever was possible from the beginning).

If you did not understand they where being sarcastic, why didn't you just say so?

Hello Mr Anderson Stern Smile
 
It is not a question of sarcasm Mr Anderson. it is a question of what motivates the sarcasm...
 
"Agent Smith: Why, Mr. Anderson? Why do you do it? Why get up? Why keep fighting? Do you believe you're fighting for something? For more that your survival? Can you tell me what it is? Do you even know? Is it freedom? Or truth? Perhaps peace? Yes? No? Could it be for love? Illusions, Mr. Anderson. Vagaries of perception. The temporary constructs of a feeble human intellect trying desperately to justify an existence that is without meaning or purpose. And all of them as artificial as the Matrix itself, although only a human mind could invent something as insipid as love. You must be able to see it, Mr. Anderson. You must know it by now. You can't win. It's pointless to keep fighting. Why, Mr. Anderson? Why? Why do you persist? "

There's a news network out there that frequently leaves me believing surely I must be watching some parody or jester's gambit or circus act...or disguised cock fight.  Now I won't mention FOX's name directly, but that network is NOT The Onion.  The Onion delivers even the most outrageous and hilarious parodies with more professionalism and class than CNN and the BBC combined.

If they added cops in short skirts, it would be better than Benny Hill classics.

THE NAMES'S BARTIMEUS, JAMES  BARTIMEUS...
 

A rather confident 007 walks into a bar and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance, then casually looks at his watch for a moment.

The woman notices this and asks,

"Is your date running late?"

"No", he replies, "I am here alone. Q has just given me this state-of-the-art watch and I was just testing it."

The intrigued woman says, "A state-of-the-art watch? What's so special about it?"

"It uses alpha waves to telepathically talk to me," he explains.

"What's it telling you now?"

"Well, it says you're not wearing any panties..."

The woman giggles and replies, "Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!"

007 taps, taps his watch,

I came back to this thread for the first time since I posted on the first page and all I can say is "wow" and "Hahahahahahahaha" at some of the stuff in here.

The observant will notice that Bart is back with H? as of today.  Back in the bosom of moral turpitude that is our malignant alliance.  Everything everyone ever said about us is true - including the kitten sacrifice and baby eating.

Edit: Awesome 007 joke btw.

If nothing else, this thread has proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that sarcasm is the highest form of evil!
