Seeing as the ass himself has admitted he doesn’t read his own threads, then surely it’s fine for the mods to just lock them and let them sink like the shit-stones that they are?
You know, it doesn’t matter to me if the OP reads the answers or not. What is more important is if the answers are important to other readers/members. In this caswe, I doubt it.
diggleblop- I repeat the question- how old are you? See, if you’re 14 or something, then I can understand your questions better. Of course, you don’t have to answer.
Let’s not be ridiculous. This yutz isn’t even in the top (or bottom, if you prefer) twenty.
I meant currently. They come and go, but I’m not aware of anyone else now posting who has been reprimanded nor pitted for stupidity as many times. I may not have been paying attention. I tend not to get involved in the interpersonal dramas here, for good reason.
Dude doesn’t even know the meaning of sarcasm. I seriously considered mailing him that check for $14.95 for about two seconds. But then I realized that would change nothing and I’d be out $14.95.
When will enough be enough? Is he still here because there’s a stricter policy against banning a paying member? After all the warnings and pit threads, posting this just days later really makes me think he’s just toying with us.
Good call, have you reported it? You should with a link to this thread.

Done (exit 150).
Like an idiot I went to read it when I first saw it in GQ (yes, I love a good train wreck :x), and had it been anywhere other than GQ I would have answered:
MAGNETS.
Now I got to do it here instead. Thanks
I dunno. I’m not a diggleblop fan, to the point where I would have voted to ban him long ago, but this latest post is okay with me. It’s not something that’s readily answerable elsewhere (though google, wiki, or a dictionary), and the question isn’t completely moronic. (True, it’s not going to win any awards, but it’s not “Are some people allergic to water”, either.) And the question probably has a GQ answer, unlike some things he’s asked.
I’m not convinced that he’s reformed, but this latest thread isn’t awful, IMO.
Whatever. Only days after being flamed for starting inane threads, starting one in GQ asking why reporters walk towards cameras is not okay with me.
… I thought you were kidding.
I really, honestly thought you were kidding. Then I clicked the link. What. The. Fuck?!
Actually, I’ll agree that most of diggleblop’s questions are jaw-droppingly stoopid, but I do think this was kind of an interesting one–think of it in terms of the rhetoric and authorial voice of broadcast journalism. For example, what are the circumstances in which an on-the-scene reporter tends to stand still (such as Wolf Blitzer in front of a distance shot of shit getting blowed up real good) vs. walking toward the camera (such as Corky McPerkyboobs chirping on about some human-interest story).
If that had been the question he’d been asking, it would have been an interesting question.
Alas, that wasn’t the question he was asking.
Oh, well, this pitting doesn’t look like it’s going anywhere, so I’m gonna veer off to ask:
[HIJACK]
What the hell is it with news anchors standing in the middle of some glammed-up starship-command-deck lights-flashing multi-level set rather than sitting at some sort of desk when they read the news off the TelePrompTer? When did this become all the rage? And why?
Just tell me about the plane crash, you bubble-headed bleach blonde, and spare me the gleam in your eye, okay?
:rolleyes:
Oh. My bad.
I guess I just automatically go to my SDMB Happy Place whenever I see a post from diggleblop.
OMG. Now he’s theorizing why Women make more noise during sex than men, based on his expertise as a porn collector.
Wow is it bad that I was thinking of asking this same question? Granted I didn’t have some weird ass theory about why women seem to be more vocal.
If you read the Sunday paper you could learn 'bout the bishop and the actress.
Yes. Seriously.
