**milroyj** , if you’re so clueless that you can’t tell who’s posting, even though there’s usually a clarification soon after the mistake, then you need to stop posting here and go post to the Yahoo boards or something. This board is for people with brains.

I’d just like to say that I am profoundly flattered to be welcomed in the form of a hijacked pit thread (two of 'em!). Mom will be proud. Dad will be… dad.

It’s the cross I bear, but I bear it with joy. You have to understand that my dad and I get a perverse satisfaction from the disgust and ridicule that results from a bad pun. The gush of pleasure that fills us when we hear those groans can only be described as… _sublime._

It’s all an _illusion_…

Watch my left hand… where’d the middle-finger on my right hand go?!

Ah, there it is. It’s on my left hand!

And it’s pointing straight up!

Peace, ye munchkin of butts.

**milroyj** , playing dumb only makes you look . . . dumb! You are the only one here who has any problem with this. Come off it.

**Weird ith Words** , welcome to the boards where you will meet many older and stupider posters. Oh, I see you’ve already met milroy. That was bad luck. Don’t worry, there are plenty of nice people around too.

I haven’t made any allegations against anyone, other than that some people are perhaps a bit too trusting of other people’s motives, especially if they happen to agree with your own POV.

I hate to bring this up, because he can’t participate one way or the other, but do you HONESTLY think that if **December’s** wife had signed on and posted the exact same stuff as he did, you wouldn’t be on her like flies on shit?

But if **Lucy’s** son does it, it’s OK. Sorry, that’s crap, and I ain’t buying.

As usual, IMHO, YMMV.

As I noted last page, **Jersey Diamond, and Joe\_Cool** did it all the time. And I don’t recall anyone following them around as you are w/ **elucidator /WWW** , like a masturbatory puppy dog looking for a violation.

Your statement here

> [@](#):
>
> You are assuming a mistake was made, a courtesy I am not sure e/www is deserving of.

is suggesting that you do not, in fact, believe that it was an ‘honest mistake’, which makes it the alternative, an intentional act, doesn’t it? and if the poster **does** intend dishonesty in who is posting, according to **Coldfire’s** statement, it would be more than the ‘non issue’ they have with **multiple** multi -user households, where when a mistake was made, immediate clarification is made. as was done here. Which **should** then, if you really fucking believe that they’re intentionally posting under the other’s name, be reported to staff. But instead, you continue your little yipping snipping behavior.

the only one here who seems to have a problem with this, is you

What is it you think **Weird With Words** has done? To my knowledge, he has not once posted under his father’s screen name. Nor has **elucidator** posted under his son’s name. His “crime,” apparently, is that he registered and starting posting, like anyone else, but didn’t mention who his father was. That’s not a requirement of membership here.

Damn, you’re an unbelievably stupid little moron, aren’t you?!

A truly unfortunate choice of words, **wring**.

But, really, this has gone on quite enough. This is **Mr. S** ’s Pitting. **Mr. S** , who’s every thought is vile, who’s every deed is a corruption, festers upon these boards like a verbal pustule…

But who is not, however, a buttmunchkin.

Chill out, **wring**.

BTW, I find it odd that a 22-year old male (correct me if I am wrong about www) would parrot his father so completely. In fact, I submit that there has not been a 22-year old in all of history who has agreed with his father as much as these two.

I call bullshit.

**elucidator** - forgive me. I must have missed the last meeting of the “Loony Left is deliberately fucking with **milroyj** but don’t tell him 'cause he thinks he’s on to us” meeting.

Did you happen to take notes?

it seems to be working, his paranoia has slipped right into delusional behavior

Sounds to me like you’re accusing **elucidator** of sock puppetry. If so, you should discuss this with the moderators, and not make your accusations here. That’s a violation of Board rules, AFAIK.

On the other hand, I think we can be fairly certain that **milroyj** is not the sock puppet of anyone. No sir, he’s his own man. How can we tell, you ask? Because there isn’t another poster on these Boards quite as dense.

Aha! The Conspiracy gets deeper! **elucidator** , who is actually **Weird With Words** , who actually isn’t **me** , because I’m actually **elucidator** , is pretending to have a son, so that he could intentionally post under his own name, pretending to be **me** (but not really me because I’m actually him), all so he/me could quite ingeniously pretend it was all an accident, and confess that he/me was actually me/him. And all for the devious purpose of… hmm…  
_Wherein **milroyj** Shows His Dishonesty: Part CMXII_

Have you HONESTLY read my entire posting history?

Here’s the problem as I see it: since **milroyj** will only give shadow-arguments, we are necessarily limited to boxing shadows.

So, I’m taking a different tack. Rather than explaining my innocence by running down the list of which crimes it could not be, I’m going to turn the tables. **You** tell **me** what I did wrong. **You** tell **me** what nefarious motives I possess, and to what end I possess them. And then perhaps **you’ll** tell **me** why I shouldn’t think you’re full of shit.
