He’s certainly a funny little man, isn’t he.
I hope he gives up and goes back to writing angry letters in green ink to the editor of his local free paper.
If it is someone else using his account, it’s also someone else who knows his posting style or is just as lazy as him with regards to typing out simple words like “because” or “with”.
Scott_Plaid has confined his activities lately to CS and MPSIMS. When he is not called upon to construct an actual debate or argument, I think he’s a bright and interesting poster who meaningfully interacts with the board’s members. I never woulda thunk it from his debut, but there you have it.

That pretty much sums him up.

Grand Prize:Tush Het Fuck Up
I’ve never encountered this melonhead before today, but I must say, I was really hoping that these:
… were the actual thread titles.
OMG, I feel entirely conflicted. I have an answer to that post, but am hesitant to discuss potty-matters (and certainly don’t want to become a part of that thread). Aw, what the hell – we had similar occurences at my fraternity that earned the moniker “phantom shitter”; in the end, it was attributable to plumbing issues.
Ach…I’ll try to forget this ever came up, and I hope you all forgive me for putting in my $0.02.
Hey, he doesn’t speak for all 20-year-old cashiers/baggers. Some of us are perfectly capable of lurking and coming out to kvetch in IMHO every now and then and not making asses out of ourselves.
Anyone who posts in all caps that he is not a stupid fuck is pretty much a stupid fuck by definition, though. :rolleyes:
He’d only eat it.
He does like to respond to his own OPs, doesn’t he? I’ve wandered into several of the threads he’s started where he’s the first two or three replies.
You know, I’m beginning to wonder. If he’s not really just…off his meds. I mean for real, not sarcastic as it’s often used.
I mean, months of benign Doperhood. Followed by a huge burst of shite, even within hours. The self important tone. The jumping from one topic to another. The use of orange (ok, I don’t know if that’s in the DSM IV but perhaps it should be). All speaks of someone in the manic phase of a bipolar cycle.
I know, I know, I know…anyone diagnosing someone over a message board is talking out there ass and I admit to doing so. But I’m just trying to come up with a more benevolent interpretation than the more obvious “he’s an asshole”.
Wow…that’s some painful stupid right.
He sure done told us, ya’ll!
Looks like he doesn’t have the cojones to come out and play. Still dumping like a motherfucker in his other Pit threads, though.
Hey Case, that is one of the best Thread Titles I have ever read.
The truly sad part is that it is accurate. I hope **andrewdt85 ** gets better meds and stops gibbering like Gibbering Raving Thing.

I’m not convinced that he needs meds, though. I know quite a few 20 year olds. That’s how they talk. Some rambling nonsense and then OH!!! I JUST SHOWED YOU!!! BURN!!!
There’s a fabulous stream-of-conciousness weaving through his threads, too. He starts one about how some guy tried to scam him, then starts one about how we can all help each other out to avoid scams. He starts one about tipping, based on a Tarantino movie, then starts one about how stupid people are to worship Tarantino. You can just see the wheels slo-o-o-wly grinding, as he starts a thread about tipping, goes over to imdb.com to check the quote, then reads the messages, then gets angry about people worshipping Tarantino, then starts a thread about that. It’s like his mind is working on one pointless thing at a time. And every “thought” that goes through his head deserves its own thread.
He seems obsessed, yes, but he’s like a kid who finally gets to sit at the adults table (and that is odd for me to say, since he’s only 2 or 3 years younger than me), and thinks we all care. He’s not one of those teenagers who thinks he’s all “deep”, he’s not especially full of rage, he doesn’t seem to be under the influence of any fun mind-altering drugs (or else he’s on the world’s longest and most boring trip EVER), he just thinks he’s hilarious and that YEAH WELL, SO’S YOUR FACE!!! LOL!!! is a witty comeback.
And I’m also confused by the threads that start off with two or three unhinged, barely coherent ramblings from him, but are followed by normal responses from people.
He’s 20? God, please don’t tell me i’m going to be like that in a year’s time. I can almost feel the stupidity clawing up over the horizon to get me.
If anyone asks, i’m 21. :rolleyes:
Thanks. I pinched it off Blackadder.
Its’ not in the DSM IV.
Now the DSM IVR…
I’m *quite *sure my opinion doesn’t carry as much weight as Bricker’s does, but I’m going to chime in all the same. I rather like Scott Plaid in CS and MPSIMS. I love his CS threads.
