How else can I attack somebody personally if the thread in which they attacked me is locked before I post my reply?

Like, suppose somebody tells me "Your reply is so gay you must be a troll" but before I get to respond the thread is locked. Naturally, I am going to start a thread in which I point out "You're a lying retard!" But then the mods come along and lock that thread. So, of course, they have to start a new thread to tell me "You're a girl, and your vagina smells bad." And now the mod squad shows up and locks that thread. Since I can't post in a locked thread, I really have no recourse except to start a new thread to say "I'm going to hunt you down, you violent Nazi bastard, and set your house on fire." What's next? At this point, the mods are likely to tombstone me simply for trying to carry on a rational discussion with a insensitive out-of-control dimwit idiot moron, that's what. And then Skinner probably won't answer my emails in which I try to explain how it wasn't really my fault. This is ridiculous! Whatever happened to free speech? Next you're going to tell me I shouldn't post drunk! Well, actually, almost half of the case I bought this morning is still unopened, so don't go there

<on edit:> Just practicing predicting upcoming posts in ATA

6. This is exactly the flaw I was telling my friend about.
Good edit!

The supreme irony, and a purely unintended consequence should it happen, will be if a moderator ends up having to actually lock this up.

We don't want that! :scared:

7. So I probably shouldn't point out that there is no such thing as an Olive Garden, right?

8. That means that...

our whole solar system...

one tiny atom in the fingernail
of some other giant being.



This is too much!



That means...



-one tiny atom in my fingernail could be--
-Could be one little...



tiny universe.

9. I heard we humans like to unlock the mysteries of the universe.
So where does that put the lockers and their smelly jockstraps?

14. If I start a new thread that discusses this thread, will the new thread get locked?
