In a rare moment of genuine disdain and frustration I’ve decided to Pit **EasyPhil** for being a complete and total assclown in [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=169268) thread.

Bear in mind that I’ve never pitted anyone before, so bear with me.

**EasyPhil** :rolleyes: what the fuck is your problem? Your rude and obnoxious comments have awarded you my Fucktard of the Day nomination. If you start a thread, at least be prepared to back up whatever statments you make in the OP. Instead, you are reduced to childish namecalling and acting like a little pansyass school girl all around. I thought that you had a valid point in your OP, but now I see why it is impossible to even have a legitimate argument about a topic that might actually have some merit. You might also notice that I didnt post in your thread, lest yours have more replies than Diaz’s. Go back under whatever rock you crawled out from and stop poisoning this board with your bullshit.

Why the new thread? The original was already in the Pit.

I’m sorry, I just thought that it was worthy of an actual pit rather than a hijack. Maybe it wasn’t appropriate but I just didnt want to add to replies to THAT thread. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea in the first place, but oh well…

His actions and behaviour in that thread seemed to be very much that of a troll, and not a very interesting one either.

Although… the dopers “sharpening their claws” on the dead mouse of a troll he turned out to be, were DAMNED entertaining.

Ben Hicks was especially inspiring.

Considering the fact that **EasyPhil** was the subject of the thread you linked to, I also think you probably should have just kept the discussion there instead of starting a second thread. It’s not a hijack, since you were irritated by his behavior in a Pit thread which he started.

Maybe we can use this thread to discuss whose username looks sexiest in all caps. Or which mod we’d most like to see wearing nothing but Saran Wrap.

Well, you wouldn’t have been able to post in the original thread anyway, the mods closed it.

**CanvasShoes** , the thread **flood** is talking about is the “Problem in Doperville” one, which is still open, not the punk ass racist one.

I was gonna say **Coldfire** , too, but since he’s Dutch I’m worried he’d wear those wooden shoes, which would just be too weird.

The thread that **flood** is referring to is not closed, feel free to post on the topic there. I’m not expecting anything ground breaking from you, since you don’t even know whether or not a thread is open or closed. I mock you!

**flood** , why focus on the things I posted to people saying fucked up things to me? Or better yet, since they entered the thread saying those things, why not pit them? I’m just giving them back what they gave me, if you notice those that have something reasonable to say that’s dealing with the OP get reasonable discourse. My statements in the OP are already backed up, the irony is plainly there, shit, the thread your referring to already has more replies and views than **Diaz’s** thread.

I’m poisoning the board?! What’s your contribution? You mostly post here in the Pit, followed by IMHO, CS, 1 GD post and from what I can tell no post in GQ, I guess that’s because your head is empty.

Can we start a countdown to banning, or does EasyPhil have to do that?
