After all, her view of other people is essentially “someone I can dupe into paying me money.” I don’t think she could maintain her grasp on sanity (what little she has) if she did not maintain some selection process to include some other people in her group, thus preventing herself from being a completely isolated person. The easiest (read: _laziest_) method of selection is blood relationship. I could sum it up a bit differently, but I’m not sure if this thread’s ready for or has already experienced Godwinization. ---

> [@constanze](#): > > [Menstrual Shacks](http://www.landoverbaptist.org/2009/march/menstrualshacks.html) I want one of these. I’d call it my “Getthehellawayfromeveryone Shack”. And I’d stay in it about 3 weeks out of the month. “Of course I can’t do the laundry! Can’t you see I’m unclean?” ---

Can’t you see I’m unclean?” How good are the Roma at science? Can I get away with a Menstruation Shack? Or would they notice I’m a dude? ---

I just had to post about the ads here. Marriage Trouble, Shocking horoscopes and then the kicker…40+ singles. Does this mean that the cybernets are using their woowoo powers to suggest that ZPG gets laid? ---

The Zealot’s posts are mind rape against all who read them. ---

How much of _Drag Me to Hell_ is real, ZPG? You see, I have a problem involving a little old lady and unintended acceleration. I’m just trying to figure how where I stand. ---

This sure is a weird thread. How can one thread hold so much crazy shit? I am now offically boggled. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/could-someone-explain-the-whole-thing-about-zpg-zealot/609731.md?page=12)
