Ten reasons I am better than you.

1. I have better taste than you. My taste is superb. I know of no one else who has such esquisite taste

2. My Political opinions are just so well formed and reasoned that I do not understand how anyone else could think they could possibly be right

3. I have formidible typing skills and english expression skills. Even my bad typing and bad spelling reflects a sense of self that you can only dream of.

4. Even my rare 'mistakes' are gems. Even at my most muddleheaded I KNOW I am still 'numero uno' ya dig?

5. Even when I use worlds like "numero uno' and 'ya dig' I remain cool (unlike others who if they said that I'd think 'so lame mofo..."

6. If I had a Facebook page I'd have many more friends than you. I choose not to cause the 5000 friend limit would mean that someone might be hurt by not being able to add me as a friend

7. Remember that guy who used to post here who could play a hundred notes a second, well I can play a million a second and each one ringingly clear.

8. If I played the piano I'd be the first "HenryMc" rather than another 'whoever'. I choose not to because it would be cruel for me with my killah skills to put so many musicians out of work. (Killah skills in another phrase I can use and remain cool - see 5 above)

9. I am so good that I can make my reasons I am better than you in 9 points rather than ten........be impressed ...be very impressed!! I know the voices in my head are.

So why are you better than others? (not me ...cause you aint better than me )

We're all waiting for the tenth reason, Henry -- even if you can do it nine!

Tenth reason.

10 I know when to stop praising myself for after all a man needs some humility however undeserved that humility is ;0)

By "they" I assume you mean your political opinions?

I am better than you because I can parse your ambiguous antecedent!

Henry, my man, I didn't realize we had so much in common.

We must be soul mates, mate.

Nothing like a quick lookup on the internet.
There's a 1959 album by Jimmy Witherspoon called "Singin the Blues" featuring Henry McDode on piano. It's actually Hampton Hawes, but he was Henry McDode on this album. That would make you #2, if you could play. I guess you'll have to try harder, Mr. Avis.

In other words, nothing here carries that much emotional weight with me here. It's pixels, nothing more.

Grow up, Hank. You're baiting is sad.
