I dunno, both probably. If somebody complains about something moronic, I usually don't even give them a second thought.
Complaints like this are cries for attention, as are people who complain about people who complain about dumb things.

If makes me very uncomfortable that UCF is using my
opinion posts from other threads as his message board banter.
He either pays me tribute or finds his own material.

Idle speculation: is this the first of many attempts to kill the show before Alex Trebek retires?

Looking past the fact I didn't even read your post, your statement isn't exactly a unique concept either.

OK. I’ll accept that.
But still, it’s the first time we’ve been in accord on something… and that is troubling.
