Rube?

**Kevin L** · 02-27-2006, 04:40 AM

I just noticed that it says, beneath my name, the word 'rube'.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but you won't, because I'm not: a 'rube' is an unsophisticated country person.

How DARE these people label me as such? How DARE they? I am an evolved, rational individualist. I am a human being. I have dignity.

I feel degraded by this to be honest. I feel that my integrity has been compromised. Have some respect. I deserve respect.

I am giving those in charge 72 hours to change this. Otherwise, I shall leave. And take my opinions elsewhere.

We're a carnivale, so you have to expect carnie slang.

Settle down. It's actually rankings of post count using gangster terminology - rube, gunsel, right guy, etc. It depends on the number of posts you have. If you hit 20,000, you become godfather.

There's some other guy (I forget his name) who has the title as well.

I'm curious to see what 25K brings.

You'll probably find out this afternoon!

I guess, if I get lazy.

Be happy. People at your post count used to be called "Dicklicker".
