Hi Dave, TED here.
Hey, listen, killer-- I'd love to help you out here, but unfortunately it seems that you've fallen in love with yet another smilie.
Yep, this one.--------->
And, quite frankly, it annoys the everlovin' shit outta me.
Now, I know that by bringing this to your attention, you'll only be driven to use it even more because... well... you're Dave and you've got the mentality of 17 year old burnout trapped in 1987.
So, I guess I'll leave this negative rep in advance of your undeniable urge to just be you.
Take it easy, champ; you're a seed.
The term "passive-aggresive" is way overused on this board and, almost always incorrectly. What was passive about Ted's post?

what does "you're a seed" mean?
Oh, it's Ted.![]()
Yeah, what a fuckin' year.
Oof.
I thought I was more condescending than passive-aggressive, but what do I know.
I saw that in a movie once and it made me chuckle.
I use it every once in a while when I'm being condescending.
Have a seat, while we both review my previous post together....
Notice how my sentence went "it's passive-aggressive guy, and he's getting aggressive". That sentence was an indication that Ted was NOT being passive in his post.
Ted is the MOST passive-aggressive poster in the history of the internet.![]()
