A tense test?
3jjmcgaffey
No, no, a terse test!
5John_Vaughan
Please elucidate on your findings Dr. Robert. What is your conclusion on this unusual encoding of tsret.
8John_Vaughan
Aha! now you ave it Herr Doktor Proffesor!
p.s. Neither am I but never mind.

You mean as in the narrowed minded, superior and bookish terse?

Well, "terst" occurs interstitially in the word "interstitially," and once that five-letter string is removed, we're left with "initially," perhaps explaining why it was used to start a thread.
As a more sinister explanation, maybe we're supposed to combine both utterances, "terst" and "ahem." It's a fairly common trope for villains to conceal their identities with anagrammed names, and combining those two yields the anagram "the Master," the uber-villain in two cult TV series, Doctor Who and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

Blort. Make sense now?

I thought Blort ought condense sense whence brought athwart first accursed terst. Terst's worse now blort's caught.

Jesus krolick, you've popped up again like a boil on an old man's ass and you're still calling people parochial snobs. I thought we had a Mutual Assured Indifference agreement, but frankly my impression is you just like sending somewhat barbarous, somewhat snide and entirely unconvincing comments down the threads like bitter little drops. I'm sure in your rich, inner life you believe you've made a case that you're more enlightened or evolved than others, but frankly you just bore the hell out of me. But do blather on, k, because anyone reading your weak jabs has got to take pleasure in realizing that ‘hey, at least I’m not a judgmental prig.' Not that I'm calling you a judgmental prig, k. Gosh-a-mighty no! But as soon as you post something showing judgement or reason I'll get back to you on that.

SGIV - you know you can ignore people? Go to krolick's profile and click Block this Member (I believe it's on the top right - no, on the right but pretty far down) - you'll see that he(?)'s posted but not what he says unless you click to show it. It's easier than fretting over minor comments, and much nicer for everyone else than getting into a "shouting" match.

I regret nothing.

I'm not sure what agreement you're talking about, because I haven't done much posting in a while. I guess I am missing something here. Sorry. If I've offended, I apologize.
