For the record, I never thought you were under the impression the prequels were released before the OT.

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.

Why would I have taken the meaning of what you were saying at face value if I thought you were misusing the word predecessor? Predecessors would refer to works that came before, prequels refer to works that were made after but take place before. I really do get it, your joke was intended to imply that the prequels were not really prequels, but were really the first movies made, riffing on stupid fanboys. The reason why I missed the joke is because I sincerely thought you misused predecessor.

And I know you were replying to greenpenguino, but in your reply to him you suggested that someone who didn't get the joke (me) would have to have a very tiny brain. Throwing around unnecessary insults like that isn't really appreciated around here, hence my "what the fuck is your problem?" (which is a question, not an insult).

Because that's what "taking it at face value" means... believing that I hadn't meant "predecessor" as a joke.

JESUS, CP, why are you keep doing this to yourself?!

The reason why I missed the joke is because I sincerely thought you misused predecessor.

So why did you think I misused predecessor, but didn't think I was counting EpIV as one of the "4th parts"? The other examples were all released after the previous ones.

To make it worse, I didn't mention the word "predecessor" until greenpenguino said something along the lines of "how do you... dare...", which I took as him playing along, so I added that the "predecessors" were hardly worse than the "4th part".

And I know you were replying to greenpenguino, but in your reply to him you suggested that someone who didn't get the joke (me) would have to have a very tiny brain.

Not really, he jabbed me by implying that my gag had been so unfunny, you'd need an archaeologist to find the "humor".
I couldn't think of a witty retort, so instead I used a lame one: that you'd need an X-Ray to find his brain.

So ok, you still felt addressed by that. Can't really blame you, I really like using stealth jabs.
But, here's the thing about the brain - YOU DON'T SEE IT BEHIND THE SKULL. An MRI is the only way to see ANY brain, INDEPENDENT OF THE SIZE.

So basically I'm trying to tell him (or you) that your brain is so tiny, you couldn't see it without a scan, but then, OH SNAP.

How you could ever take it as ANYTHING approaching a "serious insult" is truly beyond me, but after being told 5 times now that IT WAS A STUPID JOKE, you still insisting that it was an insult, is just pure trolling.

I'm done with you.
