Yes, yes, everyone complains about my babbling but no one complains
about their own babbling. The difference is that my babbling contains
reasons spelled out and yours contains references to sophomoric hempen
flashbacks.

Well good for you, sport. Now if we could just get you to remember a
little logic. No rush.Don't let it interfere with your posting idiotic
comments on posts you can't be bothered to analyze. Just whenever you
get a moment's respite from all the flashbacks to think for yourself.
