I don't think anyone knows KJP personally. Nor do I know if anyone communicates with him online outside the thread.

KJP did say he was prepping for a job though. I think that takes priority over telling us where he is.

And that post says a f*** of a lot more than the snarky ones.
Since I actually forgot about that.

Being snarky is a lot more fun, it gets a good rise out of the highly strung.

Whatever

Well you both know there's probably a reason that KJP isn't around just now, which was quite easy to find.

Alternatively, assume he's too busy to tell us what's happening. Not sure why everyone is so fucked off about it, but whatever...

Too bad the forum isn't exactly the place you get to see the reaction most of the time.
Not because we're civil, but because editing the post before posting can lead to people just deciding not to post it.

Because you're snarky, that's why. It's simple cause and effect, when someone has a genuine question, meeting it with snark gets a response.
You really should've expected this.

Aye, 'cause it wasn't a stupid question to ask. Not at all.

There are no stupid questions, just stupid answers.

Oh, and before you start. Not all questions are questions.

Indeed. Your rhetoric is stunning, sahib.

It's more that I'm just tired of seeing the same s*** repeat itself. People making a "stupid question" to prove me wrong, despite not having the slightest intent to get an answer.

[Stirk]

Is this a stupid question?

[hector13]

Well... that's the thing about passive-aggressive rhetoric. On the surface it looks really clever and biting, but it really doesn't actually do anything. We could get into a discussion about the veracity of your rhetorical double-whammy, but I don't think you'd appreciate that, so I'll be nice. At least on that point...

So, tntey made the mistake of posting a ponder regarding KJP's whereabouts, that realistically only KJP can answer. Stirk (quite normally for Stirk) decided to be snarky, something I would've done had I got here first. Yes, I did note the lack of a question mark, but the query was implicit.

You apparently leapt to his defense by pointing out KJP's absence from the boards over the previous half-week, which when you think about it, quite nicely makes my point for me. If KJP hasn't been around, he can't answer the question of where he is.

Thus, the only practical response would be to indulge in the tautological "he'll be here when he gets here", which is nowhere near as fun as being a snarky bastard.

Struck through because extending being bitchy to each other won't really do anything, but my cleverness requires posterity! (/prick)

I suspect we're both in foul moods, so you can reply and allow us to express it back and forth in an epic rhetorical flame war for the ages, or we can mope and randomly lash out at our loved ones while they wonder wtf is wrong like normal adults.

Is this a stupid question?

If it is day outside where you live whilst reading this, then yes. If it is nighttime, then no.

Same goes for all paradoxes, using diurnal axiomatics.

Its currently dusk, making nothing clearer.
