    I'm superior to py3ak

    I'm just sayin'...

    (look at that awful avatar. go to the dentist please, and stop impersonating a bat, you rat!)

    The flying rodent wannabe is going to try and retort about how he is further advanced and 3rd Generation or whatever. But just one look at the Avatars shows the folly of such a desperate response.

    How absurd a tenet is this, which holdeth that there is some particular worship of God allowed, and not commanded? What new light is this which maketh all our divines to have been in the mist, who have acknowledged no worship of God, but that which God hath commanded? Who ever heard of commanded and allowed worship?

    Someone should point out to Josh that 3 is a larger number than 1, and also that, as numbers go, it's pretty much impossible to improve on 3's fine qualities.

    It should also be pointed out that py1ak defines himself in terms of and in relation to py3ak, leaving py3ak not only the clear winner, but also the obvious original.

    Until the student learns to disavow his quite remarkable cuteness, he will never transcend himself, much less anyone else.

    py1ak is also in Italics, unlike py3ak. So we know that py1ak is the man... well, not the man, but at least better than py3ak, because he's more emphasized and what not.

    And very cute it is, with its distinctive tone to set off the faux-menacing black mask.

    Prosperity is the blessing of the Old Testament; adversity is the blessing of the New; which carrieth the greater benediction, and the clearer revelation of God's favour.

    I think "May it," is a better beginning to your question, for it could be either. It follows that if there are only two persons being compared, then the lower of the two is also the lowest of the two.

    How absurd a tenet is this, which holdeth that there is some particular worship of God allowed, and not commanded? What new light is this which maketh all our divines to have been in the mist, who have acknowledged no worship of God, but that which God hath commanded? Who ever heard of commanded and allowed worship?

    РУЗАК - it's a surname, but I'm not sure if it means anything else...

    Do you really want a grammar lesson on how comparatives and superlatives work in English?

    No thanks, Ma'am. I got your point, but I simply disagree with the "rule" here. I'm speaking logically, not grammatically. Besides, English Grammar rules are so utterly tedious and subjective.

    Which means . . .there is a middle sibling out there, somewhere! Yikes!

    I've decided to close the thread because:

    1. I'm not superior to py3ak.
    2. There can be only one, and I'm not he.
    3. Who really wants to be py_ak?
