I'm pretty sure you meet the legal definition of retarded if you can't say that three times fast.

I sure hope the Sammy! musical features the Playboy Mansion scene with Linda Lovelace and her husband. Sammy could a snippet of "Going Down" from HAIR.

It's about time to unload the above poster from this website.

How about it, Craig? It's long over due.

I'm shocked a professional writer doesn't know "overdue" is one word.

Hey! Any more African-descended names we white people can make fun of??!

How about it, Craig?

There's one that this site would really benefit to lose.

I'm sorry I called you retarded for being unable to pronounce Obba Babatundé. I did not mean to insult actual retarded people.

You know Craig, a poster that can't come up with an original post of their own and is routinely pervertedly jealous of another's creativity adds nothing to the website.

How many website rules have to broken how many thousand times before you unload the offender?

[FindingNamo]

Why? Because I think your making fun of Obba Babatunde's name makes you look even less bright than you apparently think you're coming off and that it's vaguely racist?

It's really time to unload, Craig.

I noticed there appeared to be a recent unloading of another habitual offender and this would compliment that greatly.

That kind of behavior ruins the website.

You better be careful, you forgot to copyright your creative post like you did your Wikipedia-inspired essay!

I learned to say Obba Babatunde's name back during his magnificent performance in the original cast of Dreamgirls.
