It is said that laughing at one's self is an excellent way of reducing
stress while acknowledging mistakes.  After all, if you can't laugh at
your own shortcomings, what can you laugh at?

Now, some people take this too far, to the point where they needlessly
make fun of themselves.  This is especially detrimental when the subject
is already engaged in numerous debates over such items as PC cases or the
taste of fetuses.

Specifically, I wish to remark on the behavior of one Chris Parker, and
his various responses to messages posted recently.  I wish to cite three
examples where Chris needlessly and stupidly makes uncalled-for remarks
against no other than himself.

For starters, he agrees that his mom is nasty.  In fact, more nasty than
a previous author had accused his mom of being.

Second, Mr. Parker stated that he had in fact taken a barium enema.
Orally, no less.  And it tasted just a smidge worse than beer fizz.

Third, Mr. Parker agreed that the CD he won't return to Microsoft will
indeed be used to play horseshoes with the point on his head.

Dear Mr. Parker, I also can't help but notice that you seem to be getting
quite frustrated with wpi.flame.  Your increasingly frequent uses of words
such as "fuck" and "shit", coming from a once mild-mannered individual, 
are a testament to this fact.
  
I am glad to see, per Mr. Caprio's comments, that you no longer post your
responses like formal letters.  I think you're finally getting the hang of
.flame.

Except you've got to stop making fun of _yourself_.  It can't be good for
your morale, and it certainly doesn't improve your image.

However, it's quite humorous, so I won't mind _that_ much if you continue
to do so.  In fact, if he is reading, I would love for him to respond to
the following statement.  Nothing totally evil, just a stupid little
statement:

Hey Chris, you have the mental capacity of a small turtle.
