You magnificent bastards. “A word to the wise: Be careful what you wish for. .” Hee. 😃 This may be the new “_I_ am the fucking hall-monitor.” 🙂 And, yes. I’m aware that someone will be along to piously whine that they personally find it unseemly to mock someone who isn’t here. Let me preempt that with a hearty “So? Who gives a fuck?” Buh-bye Carol. At least you won’t have to read mini-rant threads any more.

> [@MeanOldLady](#): > > Yeah, I’m not jumping on this bandwagon. This banning is weak as shit. Eh, she was either a troll - or she was just being really herself, in which case she’s evil. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen her actually contribute to a thread she’s participated in, so I don’t think anything will be lost. And I don’t throw that around frivilously - she was a trainwreck inducing bitch with nothing but negative stuff to contribute. Although .. those posts (from the ban thread) link to warnings. But what was the final straw in this case? ---

> [@Argent\_Towers](#): > > no proof it was a she. carol stream is the name of a province of chicago. Yeah. For some reason I also remember a definitive “I’m a male” post from Carol Stream but I could be making it up and I don’t care enough to search. Carol Stream was a dick but eh. I admit I don’t always mind trolling, sometimes it’s entertaining. I thought VC03 or whoever was a huge fuckface but his threads made for some interesting shit. And I’m not prolific or interesting enough for anyone really to troll me/purposely piss me off so it’s never personally impacted me.
