OK but you didn't open a MeTa thread when I got called a greaseball.
why?
(I admit nobody ever called me Streisand loving, though. maybe that was the out-of-bounds part)

I wasn't sure if that was legitimate or not. It was so comically over-the-top I couldn't formulate much of an opinion, though the likely culprit for my inability to do so may be the unbelievable number of stupid things I read on here today, not to mention the number of threads started about them.

...and by the way, I take great offense at your depiction of Our Lord and Savior as having "downy balls". It's patently rude and offensive, and completely inappropriate for discussion on a website where we are supposed to be accepting of *ALL* religions.

I'm not sure free speech extends to insults. I'm not sure metatalk amounts to censorship. I'm not sure your comparison is worth beans. I'm not sure this growth on my neck is natural. Stavros has never done anything ironic, so you must be mistaken. Take your dick out of the mashed potatoes, and pass me the gravy. On second thought, pass me the mashed potatoes too.

Kristofferson A) was cleaning ashtrays--at the age of 30--in Columbia's Nashville studio when Blonde on Blonde was recorded, B) loathed Streisand, who had C) Elvis in mind originally for A Star Is Born--In 1975! and Brando was considered for the role as well--In 1975!--the version clavidvs came to prevent and the version he inadvertently created the first time he tried, respectively. A segment of the Simpsons' Treehouse Of Horror V was based upon his activites.
One of these days, clavdivs will have to explain how his time machine then broke and he came to be trapped with us here in the 20th and then 21st Centuries. Well, either that or why he keeps popping in for visits after all he has wrought upon us with his temporal meddling.

and that these things go in waves and soon we'll all be acting like Rhodes Scholars on Paxil, but this seems pretty far beyond the pale
the material was to good to not use.
"Kris Kristofferson was born June 22, 1936 in Brownsville, Texas, just across the border from Matamoros, Mexico. The son of an Air Force Major-General, he spent much of his youth moving around the country to wherever his father was stationed. After finishing high school in San Mateo, California, Kristofferson attended Pomona College, where he majored in Creative Literature. He was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford University, where he studied William Blake, while never abandoning his lifelong admiration for Hank Williams.
After a stint as an Army pilot, he declined a teaching post at West Point and moved to Nashville to pursue a writing career in the country music scene. He took on various jobs, including bartender, janitor at Columbia Studios, and helicopter pilot ferrying workers and execs back and forth to oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico."

And hama 7, of course, was played by Austrailian actor Rod Taylor in a movie partly based upon an H.G. Wells novel based upon his life story--a life more accurately portrayed by David Warner in Time after Time.

The fact that I could point out and MeTafy bad behaviour in a tone that was not hectoring or schoolmarmish was an experiment, I admit.
