I had held a hope that she would take my class, that I would have the chance not only to cope with but to help palliate her pain.
--Steven Polansky, "Pantalone," Harper's Magazine, February 1997

He was widely praised in both East and West as a humanitarian seeking to palliate the excesses of a cruel regime.

The response to industrial decline was to cling even more to the British state, which had the resources to palliate its effects, and ease a transformation to a new economy -- or, indeed, as many hoped, to prop up the declining industries.

I'm not one to boast, but gerry's right. We're unstoppable. When Izor's loaded down with myself and two other Sharks, gerry and Hatred get on roof in Javs, and Ice_Weasel runs wild with Lancs onboard, the entire pub comes under siege, and everything is reduced to a smoldering pile of rubble. And to quote the great band Pitchshifter, "If you try to shut us down, we'll just get back up again." So shout ez while you can, because we'll be back in your face before you know it.

What's funny is that in the screenshot gerry posted, it shows Talon and Daze with <EZ> beside their names. When I saw that screenshot, I thought, "damn they got 2 people that are actually good"

The truth is, those people aren't the real Talon and Daze. How pathethic. This gang of newbies is trying to give the fake illusion that they actually had some real veterans on their fake-ass newbie posse.

Now please stop spreading your bullshit on these forums. You're nothing.

[GoldenPlums]

I don't know why people are still taking the bait on this stuff. Simple solution, don't reply.

Gerry makes me laugh

Only thing good about that screenshot is because it has Thundermare and Dockbot in it

1) What is "pathethic"?
2) Don't be angry because Comedy Troupe is physically and mentally superior to your basing sheep.
3) Poison the Well is a joke, and they suck rancid ass. Change your user title before I vomit.

i just want to increase my post count

Interesting, oh, you got a hair cut? :eek:

[NaiLed]

you're all giving them what they want. the more you all reply, the more they will talk about how "supreme our skills are". they want attention, and you're giving it to them.

Word of the Day for Friday June 4, 2004
vade mecum \vay-dee-MEE-kuhm; vah-dee-MAY-\, noun:
1. A book for ready reference; a manual; a handbook.
2. A useful thing that one regularly carries about.

The reader who wants honestly to understand it, and not merely read into it his own ideas, needs some kind of vade mecum to provide the necessary background and explain unfamiliar words and allusions and strange turns of thought.
--Robert C. Dentan, "Including Uz and Buz," New York Times, November 17, 1968

Roget's Thesaurus, which had come into being as a linguistic example of the Platonic ideal, became instead a vade mecum for the crossword cheat.
--Simon Winchester, "Word Imperfect," The Atlantic, May 2001

[Ezor]

Once again, wadi avoids the subject and posts nonsense instead. He's been at a loss for words since I owned him 10-3 in Jav duel.

[Sarien]

Ezor, you crack me up, you act exactly the way I would if I'd been hit in the head with a hammer, and then denied medical attention for a week. I'm guessing that you weren't really dropped as a baby so much as actively thrown down.

[Vitron]

hammer... baby
