Hey DU'ers, it's the "Make Your Own Flame War" Kit!
Edited on Fri Apr-22-05 02:08 AM by Writer
Haven't gotten your daily fill from others' discontent? The standard posts concerning common irreconcilable differences haven't stirred enough dirt? Well, here you go, ladies and gents - a kit that will do all of this for you and MORE!

Here are the rules:

1) Become an asshole.
2) Become an asshole that has quit his/her job and therefore has enough time to post on every single political thread on DU. (Typically that's all of them.)
3) Be sure to use several words off the MYOFW inflammatory word choice list, included with the kit: fucktard; bullshit; freeper-lite!; canard; extremist; moran; twerp and so much more!
4) It doesn't matter what THEY say - you're NEVER wrong! Narcissism is good. Narcissism works!
5) While you're busy being a flaming asshole, make sure to point out how OTHERS are being flaming assholes. Watch them explode at their keyboards!

After it's over, you'll have enough fellow posters so pissed off that you can forget about your own sense of inadequacy and focus on the glory of your handiwork. Flame War complete.

Only $19.95. Order now!

20. To quote Johnny Torch - "Flame On!"
to assume that a female is a male is not "emasculatory". That would be the opposite, so you should have said "non-emasculatory". Also with a little creativity you could have made your screen name "writeher" and thus prevented any gender misconceptions.

Of course, how can a person talk about more creativity in screen names when he came up with "hfojvt"? Well, I suppose it is a little bit creative. Pathetic and sad, but creative.

I sorta like the generic pronoun "shet" which stands for "she/he/it" but I am afraid it is too close the name for that brown stuff to catch on for general use.

24. don't forget
to advise yer clients to use the "search" function to stalk their snark targets around all of DU, and then to PM furiously, soliciting friends and acquaintances to make the target "feel unwelcome" here. Throw in a buncha of random cliques and whistles, some yapping of small dogs, and a total inability to realize when one's nose is stuck in business it knows nothing about. THEN you'll have a kit...

35. You HAVE to have a freebie with purchase. It's T.V. marketing 101
Might I suggest, as an extra, a kit for posting in ATA?

"Why was my post deleted/locked?"- to be posted thrice daily.

"What's with all the ______ bashing?"- once a day will work
