Is this "nitpicker week" on DU?
It seems like every f*cking thing I say in "issue" threads is being analyzed to death by posters I rarely see on this board! I'm being reprimanded, insulted, and generally antagonized. :eyes:

I'm going to have to start using the ignore function.

8. The name has a duel meaning ..
I like bats and since "batty" also means "nuts", it seemed an appropriate name to have while living under the * regime. I'm sure I don't have to explain "dem" ;-)

:hi:

22. Nope, I swear...Here's an article about him
This year, "pimp" will mean $2 million-plus for 33-year-old Rocky Batty's Boston, Massachusetts, clothing company, Original Pimpgear. The DJ and longtime devotee to hip-hop culture admits it wasn't until about three years after launching his line of hats and T-shirts for guys, along with his Pimpgirl line for girls, that he realized a few logos and some attitude could be a viable business. Demand from chain boutiques, music stores like Sam Goody and skate shops confirmed his notion.

20. Nitpickers have been active for a ~lot~ longer than a week.
It may comfort you ever so slightly to know that nitpicking is the last refuge of a poopyhead with a weak argument.

They only resort to flaming you for your spelling errors when they've got nuthin'.

:hi:

"Piss & Moan About Irrelevant Shit" week and you'll be safe once again. The following week will be "Grammar Nazis on the Loose" week. You may want to mark your calendar for that. :silly:
