I am His Excellency Moebiuslord, your superior in every way that could even remotely begin to matter. At least that's who I play for 8 or so hours every day while I get paid to sit here and surf the interwebs. After that I am simply me, home with my family, enjoying a life that is more fulfilling than anything you could hope to know.
As to your petty assertions that my past encompasses a wide range of humiliation and degradation at the hands of others, no, not really. I didn't have that problem, being bigger than just about everybody else until high school, then just being a dirtier fighter when I matriculated.
You can believe what you want about my incredible wealth of knowledge on subjects spanning the universe of the knowable. And you can believe what you want about the posession, and use, of a large vocabulary. None of your beliefs will change the fact that I am smarter than you are by any accepted definition of the word.
Of course I post here to fluff my ego. The simple fact that you thought it important enough to embarass yourself with that post gives me an ego high better than the finest hash. Hey, don't cry because some big bad interwebs bully made you feel inadequate. Taking it personally is the surest way to make me feel fulfilled. What can I say? Its what I do.
I will admit that I was wrong. Well not so much as wrong, but didn’t fully understand and grasp the entirety of the situation. While you sit at your meaningless job, you project your fantasies on this board of actually being respected, and deserving of that respect. I can’t blame you all that much, after all who doesn’t love a good day dream once in awhile. As for the part of your life being so much more fulfilling than mine ever could be, I seriously doubt that. If it were as fulfilling as you say, you would not feel the need to try and belittle anyone who posts on “your†board. You would not need to fluff your ego by demeaning others at every turn. In fact you would probably be somewhat a decent person, since we both know that this is not the case, it is reasonable to believe that in all actuality, your life is far from fulfillment of which you claim to enjoy. You have given up the truth about yourself is a sad attempt to humble me into believing that I, in no way, shape, or form, come close to the man that you are. In any case, I do hope that you are getting what you need out of this exchange, I would not seek to deprive such a sad man of his small amount of joy in this life.

What the hell does an extensive vocabulary have to do with compensation?
People use their vocabulary to communicate with their peers. Sometimes they use complex lingo and big words to purposely exclude their inferiors. You're just confused because you don't know if Moe is ridiculing you or offering you a slice of ham.

Go back and read exactly what you quoted from me again. But this time try sounding out the words, maybe they will make a little more sense to you.
Hint: Having the Vocabulary in not my point. Even using the Vocabulary once in awhile is still not my point. If you’re still having trouble understanding, let me know and I will just spell it out for you.
P.S. Don’t be such a sheep!
Edit: Not enough coffe just yet.
