Who’s miss super kapowsler? I assume she’s some sort of comic book character. Or shit? What in heaven’s name?

I always though Mr Kapowzler was kind of fun, in a brain-fried sort of way.

The Super Kapowzlers are not long for this world.

But we can take solace in the fact that there’s a little Super Kapowzler in all of us.

His [last post](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=12392266#post12392266) on 4/27 elicited a formal warning. He doesn’t appear to have been banned or suspended. Maybe he sobered up and lost interest. I miss him.

One of the rare times where I think the moderation was a little heavy-handed. Then again, I don’t know the whole story, but we’re also the board that killed off The Grapist.

The Giraffe boards canned his ass a couple of weeks ago, which makes me think he was a well-disguised sock of a long-term poster.

It was funny the first time. But then he turned it up a notch. Then another. And another. By which time it was annoying. Once he’d gone over the edge he was easy to ignore since you could be confident it’d just be witless rambling.

No great loss.

But I think in his short time he did give us a new tiresome meme to overuse.

an shit.

I think there should be a Super Kapowzler Day about once a quarter or so. Just for one day, because that’s about how long it’s fun.

I think he was a little like _Napoleon Dynamite_. Totally stupid movie that gets better the longer you are away from watching it — and is eminently quotable. Same with The Kapowz.

Not canned – permaboxed. He’s still performing there if anyone’s interested.

Well, he did directly insult someone. That’s actually against the rules.

I’d care more if more action had been taken against him than would happen to other posters, of if he got banned for being annoying (which is not against the rules)

I do hate that he got permaboxed on the Geeb, though. Seems to me he should have gotten the same treatment as Roo first, i.e., don’t foul up any threads with your shtick, or you’ll be boxed.

I feel bad because I told him the Geeb might like him better. Seems he got worse treatment there.
