    @Jenny dear…

    I am so sorry for the confusion my Jenny dear…my younger brother James typed the comment earlier while I was pooping….my computer was logged in…he was trying to make me mad…cause I didn’t help him on his GRAMMAR Homework! Anyway…Lets Be Freinds..how about it? We can share e-mail address and talk about celebs all day. I know you’re so beautiful and pretty and i want to be just like you.

    Your BFF Love
    No On BrAgGaRtS

    I’m really having fun, Jenny dear. But do not stray from the topic, Jenny dear. Unless you show us your beautiful, lovely face (“with lots of glamor” as you said, LOL!!!), we won’t be able to tell if we all look like the cats you showed us or if indeed those four girls look like pigs, as you claimed. Won’t we, Jenny dear? It’s really a simple logic, Jenny dear. Aren’t you following? Do you need help to understand, Jenny dear?

    Also, concurrent to your growing popularity here at Popseoul, Jenny dear, your mouth is also growing serious case of foul cavities. The F word is furiously dancing in your mouth like pigs hurriedly slurping on their food. Be careful, Jenny dear, you may get used to using those words. They’re not attractive to people of your kind, you know – world class beauty. LOL!!!

    Hey copycat! Welcome back! Now you are really trying to confuse Jenny dear. She may not be able to take all these lovely and meaningful comments from the Popseoul followers all at once. But, hey, let’s all have fun!! Right, Jenny dear?? With her beautiful and pretty face “with lots of glamor” I’m sure she’ll consent.

    Hey Jenny

    I am totally sorry for the sayings..they were not meant….lets be best friends….No On BrAgGaRtS apologized so lets hang out together well ok….talk to you later my Jenny dear.

    No On BrAgGaRtS Copycat:

    Jenny dear is having a “beauty” break from all the attention she is getting. Are you done with your bathroom break, by any chance? Let’s wait for Jenny dear to come back and give us a piece of her beautiful mind. You do have a better chance of being good friends with Jenny dear, but let’s see how a beautiful girl like Jenny dear reacts in confusion. I bet you she’ll throw tantrums and tell everybody that we all look like monkeys this time. Wanna bet?

    Hey No On BrAgGaRtS Copycat:

    Are you backing out? Too bad. You got to at least see Jenny dear calling us monkeys. It would be fun! Jenny dear where are you? Searching for pictures of monkeys in the net?? Hahahahahah………

  9. 9 No On BrAgGaRtS January 21, 2008 at 9:49 am

    I wish I looked half as good as a monkey.
    As a child I was exposed to various types of mutagens such as radiation which made some changes in the DNA. I guess there were some problems during interphase. *sigh*
    F ^ CK why do I have to be so ugly?

    No On BrAgGaRtS Copycat:

    Hahahahahah……… Was it tough to research what you just said? Must be. Jenny dear, you got to appear now. Where are you, Jenny dear?

  11. 11 No On BrAgGaRtS January 21, 2008 at 11:25 am

    To : Boy who believes he is the real No On BrAgGaRtS.

    Nope, not everyone lacks intelligence like yourself. =)
    You must use spelling and grammer checks to correct all your writing seeing as you lack the intelligence to do so.

  12. 12 No On BrAgGaRtS January 21, 2008 at 12:32 pm

    No On BrAgGaRtS Copycat:

    hahahahahah……. it’s “grammar” Copycat, not “grammer”. Bwahahahah……. but am I right? You did have a tough time researching?? Is that why you are upset? And here I thought we were friends. LOL!!!

    Anyway, boy, Jenny dear must be very tired searching for the monkeys. Copycat, can you help Jenny dear? You’re good at researching, I can see. Ha-ha!!!

  13. 13 No On BrAgGaRtS January 21, 2008 at 1:01 pm

    No, why would I need to research, do you even know what it means? I’m guessing you do not, boy. -.-
