LOL! Buggy code that only affects those with low intelligence!

I would give you the incomplete error codes that that result from PA,
but you are worth it, as anyone reading your drivel will see you opinion
as nothing but misplaced backslapping.

"Only morons have PA problems, and since I've never had one, that means
I'm not a moron!" BS! What it means is that you are totally insecure,
and you need to wrongly put down people's intelligence in order to build
up your own ego.

PA problems have nothing to with intelligence, unless you count in
greed, and a need to control others as negative intellingence traits,
and then it isn't the End Users intelligence that is in question, but
Microsoft's executives that came up with the PA concept.

By implication and deduction, you are admitting that you are a moron. I
shall not try to disagree with you on that score. We already had views
and opinions about you but purely out of politeness we decided to keep
it to ourselves.

Are you using Pluralis Majestatis here? Were you the rector at your
university? If not then your opinions are your own not that of a group. I
think the majority of the regulars here think that Kurt may have a bee in
his bonnet about Microsoft's policies but most of us don't think he's a
moron.

ROFL! I was paraphrasing you, dipsh*t. Hence the quotes to indicated I
wasn't writing as me.

That you didn't figure that out kinda points to you being the sanitation
engineer at your institution.

I'm sure some of the participants of this thread are using dial-up to
access this group. And I'm using cable, so technically that could be
considered a land-line too!
