Really? One has to be in the know to see the info in my posts. I never tell lies, other than the occasional joke (and even then, there's a saying where I come from, haven't seen it in english, that says that every joke has an ounce of truth in it) or out of pure ignorance. I am just their father. And any imaginary creature is in its essence a lie, therefore, it is one of my own.

That's either a popefish or a bishopfish from a menagerie book from the renaissance.

Bitch stop trying to make yourself more interesting, and seem like you have something special, or you are "all knowing" you are a schizoid who posts nothing but pure bullshit, and incoherent "truths" that are really just random ass thoughts from your schizophrenic brain, and then you try to tell yourself you are "normal" by saying "only those who are special like me can understand" I say the cold truth because you need help m8.

Dude, you took the bait. Why did you directly engage the autismo? Do you think your little wigger tantrum will do anything else besides make him masturbate with renewed vigor?
