Best. GD2004 Unintended Flamefest. Ever.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=850682&mesg_id=850682

An acronym flamefest complete with a multitude of deleted messages and PA's (pun intended), I think that may be a first on DU!

1. You think that guy's a disruptor?
And how long before he gets tombstoned, if so?

4. i hesitate to call anyone a disruptor
but that is one of the most amusing unintended flamefests i have ever seen (my personal favorite being the one where someone happens onto a completely docile thread, and then makes some type of overtly sexist comment, which quickly results in the thread turning into a flamefest; people never learn:)

6. I like how an acronym was contained within the sentence
bitching about acronyms (it's funny if it was used on purpose, and even better if not:)

5. I saw that one when it was first beginning
Stupidest reason to flame ever. Acronyms and putting too much space in a post? WTF? If you don't like it, don't read it.

8. A nice combination of
Bitchiness and 'waah-poor-me-I-don't-want-to-learn-or-put-any-effort-in, please-spell-it-all-out-for-me' :) Now do I get to get flamed for over-hypenating? ;)
