    I love that this is supposed to be insulting. In 2012?

    Really?

    I don't even have to consider the source to laugh at this.

    EDIT: Gotta address his attempt to be even more biting.

    Nope, still laughable.

    Especially considering the source.

    Admitting you're a failure is the first step. Don't stop laughing, little soldier.

    Not talking about anyone else. You're the only failure I see.

    You two need to stop the shit. Right now. Don't PM me blaming the other guy, talking about taking the high road and it's always HIM who starts it. I've seen unnecessary bullshit on both sides and I'm sick of it.

    Just stop. It's gone beyond tiresome. Ignore each other, now and forever.

    Because you jumped in so quickly the last time he started it up again. Sure, I'll stop.

    Yeah, it's my fault, too - because I'm on here all the damn time.

    Grow up. Both of you.

    Saved for posterity.

    Will no one help this person with pertinent information?

    I believe you have yet to receive such a PM from me. Who would send such a PM?

    OH.

    Well, mystery solved.

    You want to end the thing, end it. Either way you go, I won't lose any sleep.

    How 'bout you and your buddy ending it like an adult?

    Oh, wait, we tried that. Because I actually like and respect both of you, I tried to let you two act adult and stop. But nooooooooooooo.

    And it is ALWAYS the other guy, isn't it?

    For god's sake, last time this came up, several posters made it clear that they enjoy this little bit of warfare. Maybe YOU need to rethink.

    Yeah, piotr, never got ANYTHING from you.
    Ever.

    Maybe not. I don't enjoy it. I'm sure the minority does - someone will post "awesome" or something like that. Most of the adults on here think it is tiresome and detracts from too many good discussions.
