Personally, I think this is a great thread. Nothing better to create humility than poking fun at yourself. And that's what it's doing. And--from past experience--each of the "bitches" will pop up at some time in the future. We already know that. LOL.
I play Call of Duty with a team, and a recurrent "bitch" over the last year has been concerning "Tommy Whores". (People who only use the Thompson) When I read the "elephant whore" comment, I really cracked-up. Now, that's funny. But sadly, someone will bring it up before long.
At any rate, thanks for the thread. It made my day yesterday.And since yesterday wasn't a good day, the laugh was appreciated.
