Oh God, you people are being idiots.=C2=A0 It's poop. And shall = we all so look forward to the day, when people who eat poop are also welcom= e into the circle of humanity?

Everyday, you let atrocity happen, and you're fighting for oppressed fe= ltchers?

If so, you dumbasses don't deserve much of a future.

If your goal is to get people to s= top calling you a troll, you are going about it the wrong way.=C2=A0 If it = isn't, why are you even here?=C2=A0 Please remember the first rule of h= oles: if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.
