   I thought you "left" that newsgroup.   
      
   But, seriously, what is that you want? You "left" the Stern newsgroup when you   
   stopped listening to his show. I still watch SP more or less, I just don't find   
   it that funny and entertaining anymore (and, honestly, it wasn't that funny to   
   begin with), because the show's lazy writing relies on either non-sensical   
   bullshit (like the Al Gore's character, for example) that apparently works   
   wonders for the audience that grew up on MTV style of "comedy" in which   
   something is funny simply because it's stupid (Tom Green, Jackass, et al), and   
   when the stupid fails to work, the writers resort to the old reliable shock   
   value where something is funny simply because it shocks the audience (Oprah's   
   vagina, queef episode, etc.)   
      
   However, lazy writing is understandable. After all, even the best authors run   
   out of ideas and fade out eventually. So SP keep rolling because it still makes   
   money, and it will keep doing that until the cash supply dries out. So why hire   
   fresh writers or make an effort to come up with funny stuff like Scott Tenorman   
   Must Die (or the hilarious bit with the severed chicken head that determines   
   the bailouts two eps ago, for that matter), when cheap crap like queefing keeps   
   simple minds entertained?   
   What is not understandable to me is all this fucking gushing and phony boners   
   you guys have after every single goddamn stupid episode of SP. From the shit   
   one   
   can read here, it would seem that all of them are a the pinnacle of comic art.   
   Well, they're not. Most of them are pure shit.

   Really? Maybe it's time you found me "no longer entertaining" and stop   
   obsessing   
   about my posts. You know, "leave" my posts, eh?   
      
   Otoh, if my continued posting about the show that I still watch even though I   
   think it sucks breaches some obscure etiquette, rule, regulation, law,   
   tradition   
   or custom, I'll reconsider it. Until then, you're just another crybaby who   
   thinks that everyone has to follow his imaginary Usenet rules.
