lmao, I can't believe I wasted so much time responding to that fool about a $5 fare on the Airtrain. the same fool that bitched at me for 'throwing away' $.05 on a MC than to refill it. Lots of probelms that guy has. One day he'll say the wrong thing to the wrong person and the result won't be pretty.

 

Then again the guy is a coward and would only say it from the safety of his monitor.

ROFLMAO! brian whineburg : internets tough guy : real life short, dorky, and fugly :)

 

All those posts just shows the guy needs some serious psychological help. A straitjacket won't be enough.

Hell, even better: a punishment should be to dump his ass in the worst part of [take your pick on what you think the worst areas is] and hang his nikon/cannon camera around his neck like a cowbell and see how long he lasts. If that doesn't teach him humility, nothing will.
