The name of the game is to just change a couple of words of the post, not the whole post.
If done occasionally, and cleverly, and to the extent that it's obvious it was done in jest, then it's ok. Otherwise quoting someone and changing their words is really freaking lame. It's no different than announcing the person who is being misquoted has gotten over on the person doing the misquoting.

I appreciate irony as long as I'm not it's victim.

Yeesh, just go with the flow or don't. Trying to analyze posts is like trying to predict the weather based on what happened the prior week.

Oh. But I do.

That was a mighty short ban, wouldn't you say?
Yes, you got yourself unbanned rather quickly as far as I can tell.

Now get your moderator position back and I'll really be impressed.

You're overdoing it with the intentional misquoting. It's too easy to go from clever to derailing a good back and forth with gibberish and nonsense.
