ANDREW OF AMERICA guffaws in shock: YOU not being CATTY Chris? Here's my TOP TEN Things CHRIS FOX SHOULD ADD TO HIS "JOY OF NOT DOING LIST" 10. NOT hogging the majority of bandwidth on this list 9. NOT biting the hand that feeds you a.k.a. Roger 8. NOT feeding the hands that bite you. 7. NOT resorting to personal attacks when your rhetoric runs thin 6. NOT footnoting yourself as a source of authority 5. NOT holding a superior smug tone over those who differ from your infinite wisdom like some high school debate champ 4. NOT believing that people who disagree with you are your "enemies" like some sand-in-my-eyes playground bully 3. NOT dissing the very freaky, offensive, nelly, cross-dressing people you despise who won for you so many rights in the first place with your smug, judgmental, post-Reagan monochromatic don't offend anyone, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, don't rock the loveboat, Catholic Nunsense, shame-sodden, hate-ridden, finger-pointing, booger covered, homogeneous and painfully predictable blame placing. Instead, try attacking disabled veterans. 2. NOT publically posting your private fracas or tempest in a teacup for the rest of us to develop carpal tunnel syndrome by deleting them all. 1. NOT acknoweldging, replying to this post or in anyway absorbing any more bandwidth than you already suck up like some Gilded Age monopolistic nightmare. Strength Through JOY.... Hmm...
