Atokal's jeremiad on Aranuil's cyber-rapist tendencies is well worth the read.

To crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the jeremiad of their women.

I will unleash a furious jeremiad on the next one of you bitches who tries to turn this word of the week into some clever pun.

Why is it that people always express the jeremiad that this board is slow and blame it on Xoucow and Py, rather than their 12.6 dial up connection?

or bother to read the 5 threads already created about the topic before making a new one in which they cry out of their bleeding vaginas.

I'm protesting this week's word of the week on the grounds that savvy is eleventy billion times cooler than jeremiad.
