We're all entitled to our opinion, but I will say that being direct is preferred on boards. Being brash...well that's your prerogative, but I happen to think there are better ways to communicate. Your version of brash in this thread is totally different from the way Doc can be brash. Most of Doc's comments that can be perceived as brash usually have an underlying comedic angle to them.
And I didn't think your post was picking a fight.
That's why the puppy will never be Top Banana.
Bobby Ritz: You're a pistol, you're really funny. You're really funny.
Doc: What do you mean I'm funny?
Bobby: It's funny, you know. It's a good story, it's funny, you're a funny guy.
[
laughs]
Doc: What do you mean, you mean the way I write? What?
Bobby: It's just, you know. You're just funny, it's... funny, the way you tell the story and everything.
Doc: [
it becomes quiet] Funny how? What's funny about it?
The Puppy: Doc no, You got it all wrong.
Doc: Oh, oh, Puppy. He's a big boy, he knows what he said. What did ya say? Funny how?
Bobby: Jus...
Doc: What?
Bobby: Just... ya know... you're funny.
Doc: You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it's me, I'm a little fucked up maybe, but I'm funny how, I mean funny like I'm a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I'm here to fuckin' amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How am I funny?
Bobby: Just... you know, how you tell the story, what?
Doc: No, no, I don't know, you said it. How do I know? You said I'm funny. How the fuck am I funny, what the fuck is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny!
Bobbyl: [
long pause] Get the fuck out of here, Doc!
Doc: [
everyone laughs] Ya motherfucker! I almost had him, I almost had him. Ya stuttering prick ya. Frankie, was he shaking? I wonder about you sometimes, Bobby. You may fold under questioning.
Doc.
