1. this serves a purpose. The stupid frenchy in the automatic car thread prompted this.
2. you are an idiot. an admitted idiot. do i have to dig out the post of dirk making a fucking fool out of you and you agreeing to every word he says?
3. you are back. you said you would not come back. i wish for once you actually did something useful.
4. you have no friends. you whine to marshall about how you have no friends and he pisses on you and you love it.
So go back to your idiotic, self-loathing useless existence and quit trolling the goddamn forums.

I'm surprised someone so enlightened as yourself is too lazy to type "you" instead of "u".

Stop making intellectual masturbation and (trouve-toi des petites activites) (be small activities?) which you could devote yourself to put some joy in your life.
