It ended up going straight to "what the fuck is your problem, I just answered you..." type responses. Finally we both flipped out and it got really bad until we were seriously threatening to hurt each other.

Later, I realized that because we hadn't added each other as friends on ICQ, every time one of us posted a link, that message didn't go through because of spam protection. Was pretty funny stuff.
