I'm not quite sure how to say this eloquently, so i will not even try, 
But you two jokers are way off base, not to mention just being a tad 
hostile. What are you two guys major malfunction in life that you have to

sarcastic posts like this that make me not want to be a part of the 
Internet community. You guys need to shape up....
