   Wrong, dipshit.  You make an ASSUMPTION as to HOW I used the term    
   Slackware, and you were wrong.  When I say Slackware, I mean a release    
   version of Slackware (most likely 15.0).  If I wanted to reference    
   -current, I would say that.

   Strike two.  Not goalpost moving, just trying to clarify your usage of    
   vague terms.  But you don't want to clarify that, because then your    
   "argument" fails.

   Just an illustration of being familiar with the distro.

   You seem quite confused.  Maybe you're just ignorant, or stupid.  I don't    
   care, either way.   
      
      
      
   ... Ignorance can be cured.  Stupid is forever.
