No matter how ludicrous or outrageous a statement is, one just as ludicrous or outrageous has been posted before in all seriousness. I am NOT being sarcastic (this one time)

I have found that at times when i think i am at my most cleverness-and sadly i think my most cleverness is more clever than other folks do....i need to use the sarcasm thingy or provide more clarity.

make your points more cleanly and clearly than i ever do and you should be ok
