For the record, I never thought you were under the impression the prequels were released before the OT. When I suggested you look up "predecessor" it was because I was under the impression you were genuinely trying to use it to refer to the movies that precede Star Wars in the chronology of the series. It would have been a pretty reasonable and honest mistake.
Also, when you say you've established yourself as a "condescending smartass around here", you seem to say it with a matter of pride. You obviously don't realize the way you come off in the eyes of your peers. (This would've been a good moment for that "Sherlock Holmes, is Sherlock" comment).
And neither did I with my neutral "humor transplant" remark, but instead of just accepting it, you had to insist on how "unfunny" my "joke" was
Actually, I never said anything about your joke not being funny, that was someone else. In retaliation to them you made a comment suggesting that I am really stupid, which is what got my back up.

Well you should've been, if reading what I said at face value correctly.
So let me get this straight, first you fail by taking an obvious lame joke at face value, and then you manage to even misread THAT?
I had warned you to just let this day go; this is why.
to refer to the movies that precede Star Wars in the chronology of the series
There should be some term for that, I think, but yea, it's neither prequel nor predecessor.
It would have been a pretty reasonable and honest mistake.
And so was your failure to get the joke. So why get butthurt then?
Actually, I never said anything about your joke not being funny, that was someone else.
Ah, my bad.
I've just looked back, and here's the reason why I'd thought it was you:
you made a comment MOTHERFUCKING LAME STUPID JOKE (how more often do you need this spelled out for you??) suggesting that I am really stupid, which is what got my back up.
Can you answer me this, if I was talking to greenpenguino at that moment, then why the fuck did you feel addressed??
As it turns out to be, out of the two of us, you're the one who started insulting (something about me posting lots of dumbshit crap, and having a "fucking problem"), completely seriously.
I was talking to someone else, basically just having silly fun.
So thanks for the correction.

Says who?
You obviously don't realize the way you come off in the eyes of your peers.
As a... condescending smartass?
