I am amusing myself with my ban messages, so there’s that. ---

Don’t let the Baby Troll get ya down, Leaffan. Any attention is a high for these pathetic sorts (which you know already), just try not over-strain your eye-rolly muscles as you hit the Report button. I don’t post much here but I read a lot, and you’re a good egg. ---

Leaffan, I’m so sorry you’re getting targeted like this. It must feel awful. I do suspect that while you’re the visible target, the actual goal is to mess with the SDMB. I have faith our sharp mods will find his sorry ass. I just hope it’s very soon. ---

I’m imagining **Bone** chasing down the perp on his Judge Dredd motorcycle and cornering him by a cliff over oblivion. “I’ve got a bone to pick with you…” **Bone** propels his iron-gloved fist into the perp and pulls out his skeleton. The rest of the perp collapses on the floor in a pile of skin and fleshy bits. **Bone** kicks it over the cliff edge into oblivion. Then **Bone** puts the skeleton in his trophy room with all the rest. ---

> [@Kolak\_of\_Twilo](#): > > I suspect you need a chuckle or laugh so I will offer one at my own expense. I am so very dim at understanding posters names that it wasn’t until I read this thread that I caught on that your user name was Leaf Fan. I guess I just took it as some unique name for someone named either Lea or Ann. And then I read this thread and gather you are actually a guy. I’m with you. For a long time I was pronouncing it in my head as “Lea-fin”. :smack: ---

> [@Northern\_Piper](#): > > Can we someday get “Bone’s Bannings: The Collected Mod Notes?” Pretty please? 😛 Yes, please - I’d like to put it on my bookshelf next to the collected works of our Qadgop the Mercotan: _Bagel-Dog Penis, Gollum is My Patient_, and Other Collected Hilarity From the Wisconsin Penal System\* Seriously, there are a bunch of books that could be written from the material on this site. - Alas, I fear _Gollum is My Patient_ disappeared in The Winter of Lost Content. ---

I got that link from this post, which links to a number of Qadgop’s prison stories: [https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=2728211&postcount=37](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=2728211&postcount=37) And I found that post just going to Google and searching “Gollum is my patient”, quotes included. ---
