You watch your language! We do not allow poetic metaphors on this site! :lol:
I dunno - I think letting anger flow in poetic form can be a healthy, cathartic practice.

When I looked up cathartic on wikipedia, I got a noun "In medicine, a cathartic is a substance which accelerates defecation." and "as an adjective, cathartic means psychotherapeutic or emotionally beneficial,emotionally heartwrenching for the soul. productive of catharsis; viewing art or listening to music may be cathartic experiences."

I choose to ignore the fact that you did not use it as a noun. Great choice of words! 8)

Yay for running a thread off track! Which, incidentally, is a pet peeve of mine!

Let's just stick with the good ol' Merriam-Webster definition.

I don't like it when people quote a message that's right above them. In some forums, you aren't even allowed to do that.

2. Screw Seth McFarlane's unfunny garbage that's taking over Fox and Adult Swim. SETH! YOU USED UP ALL YOUR JOKES IN 2003! GET OVER IT! DRAGGING GAGS OUT FOR 5 MINUTES IS NOT COMEDY! :evil:

Heh, last time I remember somebody saying that, Skyone said, "I'm only quoting you to be obnoxious :lol: So, I'm only quoting you to be obnoxious.

I don't really care for the $5 footlong ads either, but I love the actual $5 footlong. Mmmmm semi decent fast food.

Fix'd.

Honestly, if women lose interest in you because your hair is graying, look at other women. Dying your hair will only make matters worse because if they're that shallow and they find out you're dying your hair, they'll just dump you anyways.

If your potential employer cares more about how dark your hair is as opposed to your job skills, look for a job somewhere else. I wouldn't want to work for someone like that.

I hate them. The people are like "My computer is SO SLOW! And I get all kinds of errors!"

"Oh wow, now that I have FinallyFast, my computer is a raging supercomputer! Hell yeah!"

:evil: The ads do not even make any sense, go on youtube to check them out.

I hate youtube pulling videos and audio for harmless copyright infringement.
