Given that your school never taught you about not using too many smilies or exclaimation points, i would have to agree.

This is getting trot out a lot these days. It's been around forever, I wonder why the sudden popularity.
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

I think he just made a mistake. It isn't unknown.
EDIT: Oh. I stand corrected. Never mind.

Wow. Quick on the draw there, pal. :palm:


Glad you can keep up.

I see sarcasm is not your strong suit.


There was nothing at all "sarcastic" about your post, unless you intended to mean that it's NOT an STD, considering a "sarcastic" statement is one made to convey the opposite of the literal meaning of the statement.

I see knowing the difference between "sarcastic" and "sardonic" is not YOUR strong suit.

I see that you edited that in order to make it seem like you didn't fail to miss the point. :roll:
