Your signature implies that you have a plan to kill everyone you've ever met or plan to meet in the future.

Nope - no crazy there.

Absolutely nothing wrong with being prepared to meet someone who may make me "fear for my life" ;)

That quote is from the Marine Corps rules of gunfighting. Words to live by, that is for sure.

I do that at work all the time. It's called a mental attitude needed for survival when shit hits the fan.

You'll only get crazier the longer you stay. Perhaps you should run home to Mommy now?

It's not just ATOT. A vast majority of posters on the internet are batshit crazy, ridiculously stupid, or under the age of 14.

Never took the time to notice them, since I usually spend less of my time here anyways.

Dammit, but how anonymous can one be when other people on the forum know who you are!

Yeah no doubt. Probably 90% of the people there could be committed. :laugh:

Some dude was bragging about posting craigslist ads about wanting to eat the fish taco and was talking about how many chicks he was hooking up with. A mod either deleted and locked it or just locked it. Last I saw it was in L&R...

You seem to care a lot about the subject. And what does "batshit insane" mean anyway? I get that you're saying "more than insane" but, how does the word batshit fit as an adverb?

That's like saying... hmm...

"Your car is "dog nosedly fast!"

...?

1. bat-shit crazy

Acting in a generally insane manner; Tom Cruise.

When Tom Cruise jumped on Oprah's couch, he proved he was bat-shit crazy.

2. bat-shit crazy
One step beyond just plain crazy. It is usually a temporary thing...sparked by something unexpected, or just really awful.

As soon as he saw me humping his mom, he went bat-shit crazy.


3. bat-shit crazy

Crazy to a degree bordering on complete insanity. The state in which one makes decisions which make the exact opposite of sense.

Why did Erin cheat on you with that greaseball?
- Because she's bat-shit crazy

The OP is definitely one of the three, and likely two of the three.

VICE versa.

Oh, and don't forget the grammar nazis. :p

hey, thanks for pointing that out. i think i've been saying (and therefore spelling) it visa versa for a long time.

i wonder how many people pronounce it visa versa when indeed it is vice versa. . .

I realize it's a common term, but it's still weird. Thanks Anubis.
