Actually, the only person acting like a drama queen is you, Valarauk.

Why are you trolling here? It’s not going to change the fact that your ex knows you’re a jackass and tries to make sure her kids don’t have to be around complete ineptitude. She’s breaking the cycle of stupidity, from what I can tell. Good for her.

As for you, you’ve offered nothing but anecdote and circumstantial evidence to back up your asshattery. Not verifiable in the slightest. And just so you know, http://none/ isn’t a URL, so quit inputting it as your website. Asshat.

cop-out (kop’out) n. Slang “An act of or excuse for copping out; a quitting or backing down.�

When you refuse to debate the SUBSTANCE of what I am saying and choose to QUIT (before it even starts) by throwing around refrences to “trolls� (or playing Grammar Cop), YOU, my friend, are “copping out�.

Just slow down, there, bubba. Put an ice pack on your head, or something, that thing’s getting a little overheated.

I’m really not sure whose post you were reading. I certainly didn’t refuse to debate the substance in what you said (what little there was, anyway).

Reading MRA brochures doesn’t qualify as experience?
I agree- however, being in the middle of just the type of long protracted court struggle that was described in the original article is, I would think.

I’m genuinely sorry that your ex-wife thinks you’re as much of an asshat as most of the rest of us do, but the plural of “anecdote” is still not “data.”

And since no one else here is representing the POV of these so-called “abusers� and controllers�, I thought I would.

And in a rather humourous and ironic way, you’re doing a fabulous job.

Finally, “Alicia Silverstone wannabe�? “Valley Girl�?
How does that jibe with being a “misogynistic troll asshole�? And “perception of obtuse vapidity�? Who’s “uptalking� now?

Heh. The fact that you don’t get the joke doesn’t mean it ain’t funny.

Keep your promise, Dan- go to bed…..

Actually in my experience it is the woman who goes on and on about “her kids� most often……this sense of entitlement is reinforced in Family Court every day….

Nope, sorry. Reading MRA brochures doesn’t count as “experience.”

And you might want to look up the word “cop-out.” It doesn’t mean what you think it means.

Oh, yeah, and the fact that you’re whining about everyone calling you a troll doesn’t actually mean that you aren’t one.

And — last one, promise — it’s cool if you get off on writing like a valley girl and don’t mind the perception of obtuse vapidity that goes along with it. The occasional typo doesn’t bother me, since I can at least take comfort in the fact that I don’t write like I’m an Alicia Silverstone wannabe.

Oh, I see you want to play the “grammar and punctuation” cop-out card- hey at least it’s better than all the “troll” cards that are usually thrown around….

How about spelling “responsible” properly before you play “writing cop” with me, OK?

No, Jack, I just understand it when some (not all) women act as if they are the ONLY ones responsible for bringing their children into the world….

But ironically, you don’t understand it when some (not all) men act as if they’re the ONLY ones responsbile for bringing their children into the world.

Oh, and try laying of your “period” key just a bit. Ending every sentence with an ellipsis is the written equivalent of up-talking.

I talked to Echthelion of the Fountain and he said this guy is laughable so I THINK that he might not worry about it.
