  OMGF, If you can't tell the difference between an Emerald and an
  Epoxy-treated green beryl, allow me to put the fucking bullet in your
  head.  Wait, I don't give a flying fuck if you ALLOW it.  I just WILL
  put the bullet in your head, and Kubota you into the West desert of
  Utah.  No body, no crime.  No crime, no time. And there WILL BE no
  goddamn BODY to find.  Trust me!

  Simple, isn't it?

  Christ, you're a fucking tool - shut the fuck up already.

  Yeah, I'm not as politically correct as everyone else on this list,
  I generally come thru the front door emptying a 20rd mag of 7.62 black
  tip from an H&K 51, and I'm incredibly tired of your bitching about
  something you never should have been involved in because you are an
  inexperienced wanker!

  PS: Degreed chemist and I'm pretty sure I know more about "color"
      than you do about your own ass.  STFU already.
