Like clockwork, you say? Lol. Didn’t know I had a stalker. Do you have a problem with me for some reason? ---

Given the much smaller pool of posters, it really doesn’t take much effort to notice when someone posts frequently, as you did. But I get it. You’re bound and determined to be persecuted. It’s a hobby, I guess. ---

It was clearly a joke and being stalked only counts as persecution if someone in authority is doing the stalking. Are you trying to gaslight me or are you really not that clever? ---

To the OP- Don’t hurt yourself patting yourself on the back Detective Oblivious. You didn’t catch anything, or anyone. Remember birds of a feather tower together. I could have flown to South America and back a couple of times…you would still be looking for your keys. ---

The back and forth snarling is just a longstanding grudge between octopus and whoever saucywench is a sock of and members of the Giraffe board haters club like helena and cochrane. Beck is just the venue to fight it out. I’m not a sock. This is my one and only account here, and it’s the only one I’ve ever had. ---

That’s right. They are bunch of goddamned cowards. I don’t mind them talking shit behind my back, I just wish they could get something right. ---
