An open letter to Sethomas.

[Sethomas]

I would like to see a college team that has 4 A-rated sabreurs. Or a college team that includes the top sabre squad in the country. I'm sure Keeth would have something to say about that.

So, you're saying that of all the collegiate squads in the country, none of them are ranked #1? With such a keen grasp on numbers, no wonder you're a libertarian. No, I never said that all four of them were A-rated. But I inferred that at least two of them were, seeing as I fenced inferior épée teams with two A-ranked fencers.

Gee, and I thought that comment about how I stuck with the "beginner's" weapon because I got served at epee implied inferiority.

Foil is the weapon taught to beginners, in nearly all common circumstances. That's all I meant by that. And no, by the logic you present here, you seem to be saying that I told you that I personally beat your ass in a bout so you switched weapons. Learn the art of syllogism, boy. I say: You got beat by a good fencer. Just because there is an implicit "I am a good fencer" does not equate to "I would beat you".

I've only fenced for three years. The first year I really did nothing. For the second I started doing some electric foil off and on, eventually floating into epee. It's only in this past year that I've really been applying myself - actually, more like this past summer. Outside of two competitions in the previous season, this is my first year competing; that was only my third time competing epee. Then, in 1874, I bequeathed my maidenhead to a charming rogue by the pseudonym of Halifax, his surname being incognito for fear that mother would disapprove of my triflings with a Welshman. It was not so much lust as curiosity that drove me further into his tentecular grasp, but I hope for tomorrow's sun to shine on me again as did those days I once knew.

Regardless of how much you did weigh, you weigh a lot now.

Ah yes, the enlightened one knows exactly how much I weigh. This is quite possible, despite the fact that I haven't posted a picture of myself since having lost thirty pounds.

And at least I don't need meds to stop from killing people.

DON'T GET PREACHY ON ME WITH YOUR "I'M COOL CUZ I DON'T EAT PEOPLE" MENTALITY. I've heard it all before, and never found it impressive.

There's a reason I have pussy thrown at me and you don't.

Man, kid, there is so much you just don't know. Allow me to reposte by arguing how many hot chicks I've made out with in the past 18 months. That'll make me, like, online popular and stuff.

Find your own schtick. There's only room for one unoriginal whore on this side of the boards.

That's lovely. Were you aware of the fact that I've been on the boards for around five years now? The only other time I've seen such an online homoerotic fixation with me to this degree was with Khaka or whatever he was called. He even made a parody character of me, if you can call it that. Oh, to be young again.

So, let me just point out where things are. You're still pissy because I outlined kindly and patiently why you suck at life in the effort to be a genuine help. You have evidently let this linger on your head, and now the perfect chance for redemption has come... with a fencing tournament? Let me explain something to you. The only reason why I EVER mention fencing in your posts is just to demonstrate that you're not so fucking eccentric as you think you are. You're constantly making posts like "hey, I've got a tournament to go to" or "hey, I want to join wrestling because the idea excites me, but I'm a fencer and that is somehow relevant". Fencing is just a fucking sport, and it's not one to which I devote a huge slice of my life. If I do well in it, grand. If not, so what. C'est la vie, et je vois que tu toujours manques de savoir vivre.

So, yeah, it's funny that I can stir you up so easily, but really? Is it worth the time you're putting in?
