Jesus fuck. We already have one thread that we collectively turned to shit by debating about The Mae Shi's validity. If you wish to talk shit about or defend The Mae Shi, can we please keep it to the March 12 thread rather than dragging down every Ozma related topic with Mae Shi discussion?
Now, as far as any hostility interpretted from me: I've been what I thought was clearly joking until attacked because of IlikeOzma's grudge against me and/or misinterpretation of my humor. While I do think that the guy gets a lot of undue flaming (Mike, despite being my best-forum-friend, can be pretty relentless), I would say the majority of it is probably justified.
edit:
the initial crack I made about elvis was a joke in response to Sam's post wondering what people were going to get upset about now that he had changed his avatar to something less offensive. I quoted that section and everything in hopes to make that clear. There was no intention on my part to actually comment on Elvis, and in fact, I have no opinion on the dude whatsoever.
