| Interesting title. Intentional?
Elitist: One who thinks they are elite.
Elitest: The elite of the elitists.
Rather snobbish of the large number who consider themselves qualified to participate. I certainly don't, just chiming in to critique.
I must confess I was too lazy to read the previous entries to see if this was mentioned.

I love the smell of napalm (on sabreurs) in the morning. IT'S NO LONGER MORNING! Why is the stench still here?
Just looking at sabreurs gives me a headache

| In epeeist parlance, "VIP" stands for "Vermin-Infested Pants"

| Not only the elitist snob épéeists, but elitist snob épéeists' servants too, and that's saying something! | |

| That would all make a lot more sense as a retort had Needle not gone to such lengths to establish that the "VIP room" was reserved for epeeists...
But I have long since stopped expecting sense from epeeists, so---carry on, carry on.

| I am making up a pitcher of (possibly spiked lemonade) to drown my sorrows after the United States soccer game, if any of the exalted elite fencers here would like some. It would be my pleasure to bring it to you | |

Come on, I would think you could come up with something better, at least faciem durum cacantis habes, or qualem blennum, or even antiquis temporibus, nati tibi similes in rupibus ventosissimis exponebantur ad necem, would be more fitting. And I don't even take Latin. I guess then, commodum habitus es.   . Master. Although I am getting relatively close to a rep beyond repute- I currently have a splendid future. | |
