Don’t you ever get tired of your partisan trolling? Does it ever get old? Do you even believe the stuff that spews forth from your keyboard? Do the words, “DON’T BE A JERK” mean anything to you? [Yet Another Clinton Scandal](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=138928) and [Are homophobic ads OK if they’re run by Democrats?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=138945) Just shut the fuck up already! [sub]I know this sounds like a pile on, and I don’t mean it that way. I only mean, I’m getting sick and tired of the same old shit and if I don’t say something I’m going to explode!-which means use Pit-like behavior in GD, which would be a no-no. So I give you this.[/sub] ---

I dunno. If the number of people who’ve posted “good grief, am I actually agreeing with december?” posts give me a penny, I could finally afford that blowjob from Trent Lott I’ve been hankering for. ---

I’m still holding out hope that one of these days I will come to the board and see ‘BANNED’ under december’s name. I don’t know why it hasn’t happened yet, really, people have been kicked out for less. ---

Well, december is pretty much polite, and abides by board rules, he just pisses you people off. So fucking what. I could drag up some quotes from a couple of the above posters that would make december look like a fucking choir boy. Deal with it. ---

**december** definitely asks loaded questions. He seems to have perfected the art of loaded thread titles, as well. But there’s a fine line between trolling, inviting discussion, and making a point in a snide manner. ---

> [@](#): > > there’s a fine line between trolling, inviting discussion, and making a point in a snide manner. A line that is nearly invisible in **december** ’s posts and which he wanders across with blithe (if not drunken) abandon. That said, I see no reason for banishment. Every thread has the OP’s ID posted alongside. It should be fairly simply to avoid opening and reading threads by posters one _knows_ one will find irritating. ---

For some reason I needed to go find a picture of Trent Lott, as a sort of visual aid. And I got sidetracked by a picture of him, along with Daschle, Hastert, and Gephardt, [receiving Christmas gifts from W.](http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/12/images/20011218-2.html) Except that–he’s the only one with no gift! What could this mean? Is there a Conspiracy Theorist in the house? Anyway, here is a picture for Apos to utilize in whatever kinky fantasies may spring to mind. [http://lott.senate.gov/first/2000/0825.hab.both.gif](http://lott.senate.gov/first/2000/0825.hab.both.gif) That’s Mrs. Lott in the foreground, bless her little Habitat for Humanity Heart. Looks to me like the Mister is braced for a different style of action than a simple BJ… ---

I am proud to say, my life has been **december** -free since about May, **tomndebb**. I just pass over his OP’s and scroll really quickly by his posts. It has greatly improved my enjoyment of the boards. I haven’t had any withdrawal symptoms at all! ---

Hmmm… I am so out of the loop. I was out of the loop about Wildest Bill (not that similar to december, at least as far as I can tell) and I am out of the loop with december. (Wildest Bill has since been banned, for what reason, I don’t know. Out of the loop, remember?) I don’t anticipate or encourage december’s banning, but once again…out of the loop, so what would I know? I’ve never exposed myself to enough of december’s heated OPs to get upset. His random posts here and there are not all that annoying. Oh, I confess—I am not completely immune to getting worked up and upset by some topics, but I guess I’ve learned to not even bother looking at some of these heated threads. Time is short—I don’t always feel like wading through umpteen posts full of indignant outrage. And that seems to be what a lot of these threads transform themselves into. So why bother? YMMV, of course. ---

Nobody is calling for his banning. He is an idiot that likes to push his anti-liberal, anti-palestinian, anti- UN, anti-EU, anti-Democrat, Anti-Clinton, Anti- Kyoto, Anti everything, coulter loving agenda at every possible moment. And he’ll probably post some shit limerick in response to this thread. Do you like annoying people december? ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by TwistofFate \* > \*\* > Do you like annoying people december? \*\* It’s pretty obvious that he does. And some dopers just can’t resist rising to the bait, every time! Stamping out ignorance is a noble pursuit, but when doing so would require the total rewiring of someone’s cranium, it’s clearly a lost cause. I’ve been lurking for long enough to know that posts by **december** are to be avoided at all cost. ---

**Twisty** , be careful. You might offend him. 😉 Incidentally, I’m not nearly as conservative as he is, but I’m still Anti-Clinton, Anti-Kyoto, Anti-Liberal, Anti-Democrat, and for the most part Anti-UN. I’m not Anti-Palestinian, but very Pro-Israel, if you get the distinction. There are rational reasons for people to feel that way, so if you would, please watch how broadly you sweep that brush. However, I think that Ann Coulter is a nutjob. Who doesn’t? ---
