Either he really is Saddam, or he's having a lie in!

I believe that should read: "We've killed Saddam. Again."

That's harsh, Tony. I think that Saddam's occasional posts are actually pretty good.

I think that you're overly hard on yz33d, as well. Admittedly, in his first foray on this BBS, he was a royal pain in the arse. More recently, he's not struck me as particularly irritating. And when he does try to be funny, often he actually succeeds.

Admittedly, he has opinions that I disagree with, and feel that nobody could usefully hold/justify, but that's fair enough -- freedom of speech and all that.

So, please, go easy on the guy.

This post gets funnier everytime I think about it, but I'm not sure why. I chuckle everytime I see his avatar now...

Wow, calling someone "not funny" is now considered "harsh" on this BBS? Our skin can't be that thin, can it?

Maybe some of us, but if I can say anything about yz33d it's that his skin certainly isn't thin. I'd say the same probably goes for Saddam as well.

It's not that post in isolation, it's the way that you always seem to be hammering on yz33d for his indiscretions of the past.

For example, you assumed that just because you don't find Saddam's posts funny, that it had to be yz33d posting it.

Let it go already.

That's actually not what happened. I was on last night and saw yz33d and Saddam_Hussein post messages one after the other. That and the fact that their avatars both picture Saddam, along with the similar style of humor, is what led me to that conclusion. I was just taking a stab at who it might be. I stand corrected. BFD.

Let it go already.
Thanks for the advice!
