Sick and tired of the elitist snobbery

[keith44spl]

I did not know I was so snottish..........

Jest cause I sport a hand-tooled rig, with silversmith'd gold and silver buckles.
Btw, I do have the matching cuff links to boot.

And carry a custom S&W RM....Chambered in the all time great 44 Special.



And all this time, I thought I was jest a hay-seed cowboy. Who Knew?

You ain't foolin' nobody with that hayseed act and you know it. We all know you went out and bought that gun and then had that fancy-dancy-drugstore-cowboy-barbecue rig made for it just so you could lord it over all us peons on the forum.

I reckon you even got some hand tooled boots and a shirt or two with them mother of pearl snaps on 'em, too, don't you?

Dang... imagine how po'ed the OP would have been if he had asked "THE" question... boxers of briefs?

This looks like one of those "stir the pot" posts and then sit back and watch the fun ensure.

Time to move on.. and lest I forget the obligatory plausible deniability declaration... IMHO !!

Yeah, looks like you noticed the same thing I did. The OP made a bunch of semi-inflammatory statements then never posted anything in the thread since.

Can you say "drive-by"?

If all ya'll got on my hind-parts like that,(any more than already) I wouldn't be back either !

A bunch of inventive minds; lots of varied experience, a little spare time, and there is no telling what is liable to break loose round here

 

[gregintenn]

I can't picture why a proper pancake holster would cause fitment issues regardless of body type. Anyway, how does this make us elitists?

My boots didn't wear all that great til I wore em a few times.

Well, what would YOU expect if you read other people's advice, then started throwing around loaded terms like ELITIST and SNOBBERY and complaining about how their advice didn't translate into the results you wanted. Especially in regards to something as personal and subjective as the BEST holster to purchase?

Personally I can't imagine posting something like that and expecting any other reaction. Can you??

That's not snottish.... That is CLASS!

I think rog was just having a little fun.

 

[old bear]

Someone please explain the difference between being an elitist snob, and having a certain sense of style, and knowing what one likes?

Why, thats easy, Fred! A elitist snob has what YOU want!!

(Not you personally, mind ya....that'll be referrin' the "said complainant")

I'm sure he was. Doesn't make my point any less valid.

 

[Hapworth]

Nobody's questioning the validity of your point BC -- just trying to help your blood pressure go in the same direction as that big red thumbs down you brought to the thread...

 

[BC38]

No blood pressure issues here. I was just making the observation that the OP seemed to be of a mind to "stir it to make it stink" a bit (as my pap used to say), and also that he probably knew it - or at least should have.

As far as negative vibe (thumbs down) posts, it seems to me that there were a lot more negative and agitated comments that preceded mine, and that a lot of them were more directly aimed at the OP.

I think you're mis-reading me or mis-judging my intentions - or at least my frame of mind. I just don't get that worked up about such things. Life's too short.

Maybe I need to sprinkle in a few more smilies...

Agreed, especially on those smilies...

 

[1angrycat]

I have only one thing to add. ***?

 

[flyrobb]

Well OP, In my humble opinion, there's only one thing any "self respecting" holster owner in your shoes should do...sell them to us snobs for 50% of what you paid for them and teach us a lesson!
...with a 30 day trial period of course.

Well, sorry there mister. I was; as Hapworth noted, just trying to stay on the "fun" side of the posts. Which come to think of it, the very premise of the thread by the "anti-snob" was a bit funny. Not funny as humorous, but more of the other funny; the colloquial use of funny, as in odd.

I do have a question about that thumb though. From it's reddish hue, I fell certain I know where it has been kept, but what I am supposed to do with it ??

Is it kind of an "award" type of thing, or more in line with one of those "dings" I hear about ?

In keeping with the "fun" aspect of things, do all those CAPITALIZED words in your post regarding my comments,(2nd actually) indicate you were YELLING the words, or did your caps-lock button go on auto ?

The thumb thing was a total accident. I don't know how I did it - or how to un-do it. In fact, I didn't even figure out what Hapworth was referring to when he first mentioned it. I thought his thumbs down comment was in reference to the "downer" tone of what I posted - hence my comparing the tenor of my post to what had been posted by others.

The purpose of the capitalized words is to place emphasis or inflection on key words. As far as I know there are only a few ways to do that when typing - bold, italics, or caps. Caps is the easiest of the three. Though I expect you probably already had that figured out.

BUT, just to be clear...

IT IS ONLY YELLING IF YOU TYPE ENTIRE SENTENCES IN ALL CAPS - LIKE THIS...
