Thanks for answering. That's what I was asking. I mentioned claim because there are a lot of folks on CG that claim they are something they are not. However my claim of superiority is truthful.

Seriously, exie - what gives? Stop doing that. It's annoying.

Almost as weak as your baseball smack.

What's happened, Archaea? You used to be pretty good at this.

You'all think and act alike when we accuse exUte of belonging to you, eh?

Of Others generally yes, of your intolerant rantings and claims to superiority, no. And you're old enough to know better but too young to be crotchety.
