A celebrity you don't like or a random Doper?

[kayaker]

@GuyTanzer

Is it possible that the random Doper could also be a celebrity I dislike? What happens then?

Although everyone seems to think I bear a strong resemblance to George Clooney, for the umpteenth time *I am not George Clooney. *

Besides that, what’s your problem with Geo?

Please, Scum and Czar, there’s no reason you two can’t work things out in this thread for the rest of us to observe and make rude comments about.

Well, yes, we could. The question is “why would we?”

The Doper will be randomly chosen from the membership. You could get anybody who isn’t banned.

@Bryan_Ekers

I got #97000 (the roundness of the number got me suspicious, but random is random), who turns out to be this guy, but he (?) was last active in 2011. I kept trying until I found someone active within 2018 and after at least 20 attempts got this guy who registered in June but never posted.

Just saying.

Ok, here’s methodology #3. It doesn’t match the OP that well, but whadya going to do? It has a bias towards prolific posters which is a shame because quantity < quality.

Click New Posts at the top of the screen. Go to the bottom and see how many posts show up on that page. I got 65.

Go to random.org and pick a number between 1 and the number of posts (65 in this case). Ok, I just got 16. Look at the Last Post column and scroll down. By this methodology the doper sentenced to have dinner with me is… the notorious HurricaneDitka.

HD has 4 of the last 65 posts: he is the most prolific poster in that snapshot. He seems to have an interest in Kavanaugh and misogyny.

By way of contrast, Czarcasm, kayaker, and Scumpup each showed up once.

Have you any idea, I mean even an inkling, just how sad that is. You “despise” someone you’ve never had any direct dealings with, and yet you keep coming back for more. And let’s be honest, you usually end up on the losing side of those little altercations.

Me, well despise isn’t a word I throw around easily, but if there was such a person I reckon I might just have put them on ignore by now because life’s way too short for such pettiness. But you…fuck it, even when it’s a thread of your own making, on a topic that has nothing to do with Czarcasm, even then you still have to bring them up, giving them headspace and letting them mess your mood up yet again.

Do you realize how pompous you can be? Wow.

And that’s all you’ve got. A weak, weak ad hominem.

‘Yeah, maybe I’m a lame fuck with an almost stalkeresque fetish about another poster who I keep trying - and failing - to beat in any argument I can find…but you, you’re pompous’

So sure, let’s go with that. I’m pompous. Now, why don’t you take a few minutes and consider just how much free headspace you give a man who clearly isn’t that bothered about you.

For our entertainment of course.

To tell the truth I have nightmares about him all the time.
No, wait-What I have nightmares about is being stuck in an elevator with Bobcat Goldthwait and Gilbert Gottfried while they sing a duet of “Ave Maria”. Scumpup is just a dull chap with some psychological problems.

…stuck in an elevator with Bobcat Goldthwait…

I dated Bob’s ex wife. True story.
