Bananas and Nuts

Angie Gallant:

He likes to be wrapped around meat.

Bahimiron:

It was wretched. I love a tortilla as much as the next fajita fan, but god that smell got old fast.

DeForrestation:

…I can vouch for the delicious flavor of a fresh tortilla, the stink that permeates my clothes I could do without :(

Tortilla:

You’ve never had a good fresh tortilla, have you? :)

Connecting the dots disturbs me…

Most uncomfortable pickup line. Ever.

No, I never said we were above insults. Hardly. I’ve been here since Day 1.

But calling someone a dummy is neogaf-level. I expect more from Qt3.

Flawless victory!

I need to see if Tom will give me the custom title of “Comedy Gold” now.

ElGuapo:

Tortilla is such a stupid forum name it kind of makes fun of itself already. Do you have to pay $10 to change your name, like on XBox Live?

I don’t know who it was, but I think it was someone on here (I forget now)… They messaged me, and many others I assume, that they wanted to change their name on Live, but didn’t want to pay the fee. So instead, they told everyone to report their name as being offensive. I did so as it sounded like it had potential and not a day or two later, they had a brand new name gifted to them by the overlords…

Also, Tortilla? What, Bread was already taken? Toast wasn’t good enough? How about just Cake? Damn people and their kraazy names.

Yeah no shit, a nerd-bully magnate like this place? I would at the very least expect dolt if not hebetudinous boor.

You’re just pissed someone else is learning Spanish too.

That’s why language is important. He didn’t call someone a “dummy”. He, in your own words, “impugned the intellect of others.” That’s not middle school. That’s a grown-up insult.

At heart, most insults boil down to the same basic ideas. What differentiates the maturity levels is the sophistication of the language around them. QT3 is, indeed, above a “LOL U R A RETARD” insult. But Bahimiron’s insult wasn’t that; it was a somewhat clever framing of the intelligence of several posters. Was it fair? I don’t know. But fair or not, its sophistication was par for the course around here.

And now, having wasted way too many words on this subject, I’m going to go play a whoopie cushion prank on someone. Good day, sir!

You are still just angry that you couldn’t get Village Inn as your handle aren’t you?

What? Who told you!?!?

/me kicks Kra-, er Tortilla in the shins and runs away!

The real funny part is that I bet people who lives on the west coast have absolutely no idea what we are talking about.

Mike_O_Malley · 2010-09-27T15:02:23.000Z

They never do.

Bahimiron · 2010-09-27T16:28:01.000Z

I could go for a Village Inn All World Burger and a slice of French Silk pie*.

Stupid Boston doesn’t have them either. Hell, Boston doesn’t have anything.

Anaxagoras:

I’m almost touched!

Anaxagoras:

Best not to speculate. Like I said, I don’t think it was the words, it was the subject.

*Admittedly, the French Silk pie just made me miss Tippin’s Black Bottom pie.

Bahimiron:

Sorry; I didn’t mean it as a backhanded compliment/insult. Although re-reading my post within the “quote” box, it does kinda read that way.

Maybe, but it’s the words that raise it above a middle-school insult. The subject itself has been on the table at QT3 since the beginning; the main requirement around here is that you put some effort & thought into your insults so that they’re A) entertaining, B) accurate, and/or C) phrased thoughtfully.

What, Southies not good enough for you now?

Though for the record, Phoenix has Village Inns too. Not much else, but we do have 24 hour a day “Better than Denny’s, anyway” food options.

Major_Icehole · 2010-09-28T03:10:47.000Z

A pox on Village Inn, I’d rather eat at Waffle House… Blech.

Give me a Perkins any day.

kerzain · 2010-09-28T06:36:25.000Z

There’s nothing wrong with Waffle House asshole. I would kill for a Wafflehouse out here.
