I hadn’t posted in that thread, or even looked at it until a vanity search revealed those. If it’s about me **elucidator** it seems to be because you’re making it so. **Lobohan** , you’ve been here, what? 6 years? I had no idea you existed before I saw that post, which I guess says all that needs saying. So… I hope that that made you feel big, and thanks a bunch. ---

I guess i just wonder when it became _verboten_ to bring up posters in threads where they don’t appear. After all, barely three months ago you [made uncomplimentary mention](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=10401198#post10401198) of **ElvisLives** , **RedFury** , and **Hentor the Barbarian** , describing their posts as “crap” and “hateful,” in a thread where none of them had made an appearance. Also, i’ve always thought that pitting someone for something they said in the Pit is pretty lame. ---

> [@Scylla](#): > > Kind of uncalled for, don’t you think? No. I don’t notify **deeward** whenever I happen to bring up her Englebert Humperdinck meltdown, not do I PM **Carol Stream** whenever the question of that poster’s gender happens to come up in conversation. Posters who are known, who have a reputation, are gonna get talked about. Perhaps you should have been more low-key. (Vanity search? I couldn’t do a vanity search with my first username, 'cause of the quote. Then, when I changed it, I was a mod and I didn’t need to. Who needs to do a vanity search when your name is attached to “Frank, you fucked up!” in the Pit? Since then, who cares? If people want to address me, they can find me. If I stumble across my name in conversation, fine; if not, I don’t care.) ---

**Scylla** you are a pathetic and vastly unmanly simp. You are also magnificently hypocritical. Here’s the rest of what you wrote about me in that thread that **mhendo** : [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=10403632&highlight=Hentor#post10403632](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=10403632&highlight=Hentor#post10403632) > [@](#): > > Wellllll, if somebody over there selected his posts and Hentor’s and a couple of others and held them up for ridicule as representative of what occured, they would probably feel just as smug as some people here, wouldn’t they?

He trots out this Scylla is a racist thing all the time. I look at the stuff here that’s been written about posters and I don’t see how one can have their head so far in the sand. Did you see what was written about Bricker recently, by Veb a former moderator? [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10403563&postcount=132](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10403563&postcount=132) This is in a thread I never participated in. I’d ask if you feel big, but that seems quite a wimpy thing to ask someone. And yeah, I think you’re a racist. That comes from the fact that my first recollection of you on these boards was your going 12 or more pages in defense of the assertion that there was no Southern Strategy used by the Republicans, and around the same time reading a piece of your work in which you used the word nigger 24 times, including making the statement that you learned that there were in fact monstrous niggers, and then that any thinking to the contrary was pc “happy crap.” Sure, you wanted the reader to feel good about your grandfather despite his racism, and so you have him saving a drowning black kid. You never cleaned up the thread of your logic in the story about there really being niggers who were monsters. Here’s what I said about it at the time: > [@](#): > > If you are going to write a story that uses a racial epithet 24 times, including affirmative usage by the protagonist, I think that the moral payoff has to be a bit stronger than “I was wrong. There is nothing contemptible about my grandfather. It is people who aren’t heroic who are contemptible.” I stand by my original read of your writing. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to address your charges about me in a thread I never participated in. ---

Some warm soapy water, a loofah and Kenny G are all that are required to fix that. Also, I’m sure you’ve seen me dozens of times. You’re just too self-absorbed to remember things that you can’t somehow twist into your pathetic self-delustion about how awesome you are. On the other hand, thanks for my first pitting.
