"How ever did you see through my brilliant disguise?"

I didn't name you in my post. Quod Erat Demonstratum.

Yeah, well, I'm a smart guy, I can figure out the idiotic point you're trying to make.

Furthermore, in the first place it's quod erat demonstrandum. And in the second place, it's Latin for "which was to be demonstrated" and is used at the end of proofs where you initially state that which is to be demonstrated. For example:

I will now prove that StAnDeliver is an idiot.

You never stated something to be demonstrated, therefore it would have been a non sequitur to use quod erat demonstrandum, even if you'd spelled it correctly. I'd say that perhaps it is you who is the troll, except I think you might be too dumb even to be a DUer.
