Um, guys, I could be wrong, but I think PNT was just joking 
(right PNT? Misa is getting out one of Akane's Mallets(tm))
PNT just has his own special brand of humor....

thanks all for defending me... but I don't think it was an 
supposed to be quite as insulting as everyone took it...

if it WAS supposed to be that insulting, well... I guess I 
didn't really know PNT as well as I thought I did...

misachan

haha...of all you people, the only person who got the *JOKE*
was the butt of it.  I was just bored and feeling light that day
so I whipped up a post and applied to it the most deranged and
lunatic reasoning I could. (which wasn't a far stretch... ^_^)
Misa's cool.  Even as the butt of the joke she didn't jump up,
blow it out of proportion, and then send me mail like "What the
HELL are you doing?  trying to make everyone hate you?" (like
some asses actually did!)  And you guys?  you guys are way too
high-strung...at least on the FFML.  Most of your posts are fighting posts.
So I can understand how you might see a post like mine, the red haze in
your mind clouds your reasoning, and so you pull your guns on me
without even weighing certain factors like the A. lack of a
rebuttal post by Misa, B. lack of directly insulting comments in
the letter, C. the reference to the ATF and the BooPSiE division,
D. the flowery language, E. the very idea that I could actually
think I can predict Misa's..idiosyncracies, F. there's more,
soon as i think of them ^_^

i was just scanning more mail before i send off this queue
and i see that j.austin wilde ALSO picked up the joke.  he
is also cool. ^_^

i find funny the volume of personal insults I received
privately in reaction to my volume of zero insults against
Misa.

p.s. how many of you like Howard Stern?
