The guy who came on being a smart arse and flaming the OP was wrong.

No one flamed the OP. And wrong about what? He made a good natured sarcastic comment, hardly worthy of condemnation. If you think it is played out, then say that. But it can be done without being a melodramatic douchebag, and to be honest, I think he didn't even realize the guy was joking to begin with.

Duckie just stood up for what's right.

What a crusader!

The comment wasn't necessary

And the response to it was? Lots of comments on a message board aren't necessary.

it wasn't funny it has been played out

I'm inclined to agree, but that's a subjective matter. You can ignore something that falls under this description or address it without being a smug douchebag about it. There is a lot of smug douchiness on this site already and this was yet another example of it.

and actually hi jacked a thread about a kid I was hoping to read more about it.

One post that read "Hi Jeryl!" hijacked the thread, not the post that attempted to correct it even though it was clearly tongue-in-cheek and then the other post that was completely condescending for no reason? Right...And then of course the conversation that has thus been prompted as a result, including your post. But the guy who posted "Hi Jeryl!" hijacked the thread.

No matter how you spin. Stupid is as stupid does.

Ok...

And I guess this can apply to Duckie for pointing out that it wasn't really the recruit himself posting and then for claiming that I am likely a buddy of the other poster simply b/c I pointed out that he was being a prick.

Please let's talk about this talented kid.

Go for it. No one is stopping it. But if you start your post raving on this supposed hijack subject matter, expect a response that will be about that subject and not the kid. You yourself are contributing to the thread getting off course.
