Message | This is the most backwards, inhuman, barbaric bill I have ever read. The Dynex Party has absolutley no respect for The United Worker's Party anymore. Unbelievable. |

Message | We just viewed your party's page and discovered that you are part of the International Human Rights Movement organization. How can you be a member of this organization and present a bill like this? We have informed the leaders of that organization that you presented this bill and we will urge them to remove you from their organization. |

Message | This is the most shocking and disgusting piece of legislation that I've ever seen introduced in the parliament of the Free Republic of Jelbania. The Citizens Party will not support any cabinet positions given to the United Workers Party if they ever get seats in the Parliament. This sort of ignorant and baseless intolerance should never be allowed in government. I hope they come to renounce these views eventually. |

Message | Your message board incompetence is an inspiration to botched lobotomy patients everywhere. Rumor has it that you are almost incomprehensible in person (as revealed by your desperate urge to babble nonsensically on message boards.) No doubt, this rumor is true. If brains were gasoline, you wouldn't have enough to run an ant's go-kart around the inside of a donut. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself on the Internet. However, I'll consider letting you have the last word if you guarantee it will be your last. As Ellen Glasgow once remarked: "He knows so little and knows it so fluently." If that post was intended as a joke, you forgot to include the punch line. You are the kind of person who, when one first meets you, one doesn't like you. But when one gets to know you better, one hates you. Maybe you wouldn't come across as such a jellyfish-sucking mental midget if your brain cells weren't on the Endangered Species list; if your weren't so fat that buildings bounce when you haul your Sumo Wrestler mass down the street, or if you weren't uglier than the north-facing end of a south-bound mule. Nah, of course you would. Now, if you care to apologize for wasting my shamefully wasted time, I'll consider accepting it. |
