The two sentences have different meanings. "Interestingly cross posters" means that the posters are cross in an interesting manner; observing their crossness is interesting. "Interesting cross posters" means that the posters, who are cross-posting to more than one newsgroup, are interesting.

Laura used a play on words that obviously escaped you. As you continue to add comments, it becomes apparent that more escapes you than is caught by you. Your grasp is hampered by mental mittens. If you are going to play in this group, you have to step your game up. If you have a game.

Laura later amended her view to indicate that she was mistaken in her belief that you were interestingly cross. I agree. You are just run-of-the-mill surly. No one has suggested that you are interesting in any other aspect.

If the word "cross" is unfamiliar to you, information on the meaning is available in the dictionary.

A masterful squelch. Nothing po about it.

Are you an idiot or just spurious? It was quite clear that Laura meant "cross posters", ie angry posters.

Masterful, shmasterful, what is it in our egos that allows us to put a fist into these tar babies? You know that no argument, no matter how well constructed, will ever bring these people out of their insecurities and accept another argument.

A poster so paranoid that he can only dish out abuse behind a pseudonym is not worth the time. Time is our most valuable non-renewable resource. Don't squander it on these doofuses.

Spurious Emission (AKA Dimbulb)? He's one of the chronic idiots on the engineering groups. He knows nothing but is fun to poke. His response is quite spurious.

I agree it didn't suppress the spurs, but I enjoyed Peter's response for itself, so it didn't seem a waste of time.

One of my jobs as a kid was to take my grandmother's accumulator to the battery shop for a recharge. It was of heavy glass and you could see the acid and the plates inside. It was heavy and the carrying handle, which slide down for removal, had quite sharp edges. Her wireless was one of those big old beauts with a tuning dial showing stations in every European capital city plus all the BBC stations/studios around England.

You really ARE stupid!

I must admit I thought at first that you were merely an asshole, but there's no "merely" about it.

What a shame. Resorting to your hand, now, are you?

She isn't IN a technical group.

Oh goody, I never get the chance to do this in aue:

WHOOSH!

We tend not to do that in aue. Well, plonking yes, but we tend not to tell the plonkee about it. I would hazard a guess that 40 or 50 folks have already plonked you, mostly because they feel that poking the mentally deficient through the bars is needlessly cruel.

What are you talking about? In another thread I'm right in the middle of a highly technical discussion about plumbing lines and how a knob thingy can be attached to the gizmo so it turns off the water when it should be turning on the water if you're right-handed or red-haired.

How freakin' technical do you want?

You missed the comma after "agree", dipshit.

It was a cell, not a battery.

Maturity ranking one to ten... you rank less than a one, boy.

D'oh!

Sorry to break your immature bubble, little boy, but the subject under discussion was quite technical, as the context in which it was presented clearly stated.

Complete immaturity noted. Nice job, adolescent twit.

You prove that numerical age does not an adult make. Don't even think that I refer to anyone other than you.

You might have noticed that the traditional meaning of the word 100% proves my position on the subject.

F*ck off, you little 13 year old level mental midget.

Keep you profane self indulgences to yourself, dipshit. If you ever presented your "hard part", I would Bobbetize your retarded ass in a heartbeat.

Dumbfuck. Do you even have any clue as to what Usenet is about? If the post was across multiple groups, the subject is as well. Also, the OP presented it as such.

Get a clue, dingledorf.

Proof that you yet another petty Usenet twit.

Do you also wear your pants down past your asscrack like the dipshit in school these days do?

Like I give a fat flying f*ck that some dumbfuck plonktard wants to filter his access to the world.

Sorry, but your "reason" is as immature and retarded as you are.
