I think the question was how BigT would know if you had gotten a PM or not. You answer seems to imply that BigT would automatically know about a PM you received. Logically I must then assume that you and BigT have access to the same accounts, and therefore are the same person, **BigTV**.

Comments like this from you leave me wanting to simultaneously pity you as well as just laugh in your fucking face. You not only want to earn a college degree, but aspire to actually TEACH college! Holy shit, man - you’re a complete fucking idiot! You don’t show any capability of understanding basic human dialogue, let alone following along a logical sequence of statements, or using context for clues. And you want to TEACH? _College_? Good luck with that.

If someone PMs **etv78** , then **BigT** would assume that **etv78** would know; therefore, jell-o.

My favourite was a Pit thread about his odd behaviour in a Games Room thread, where it was heavily implied that he didn’t know how to copy and paste text, so he had to manually re-type stuff out from previous posts.

[This](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=661446) was the thread where I realized what an absolute dumb-ass he was. Pretty much _everybody_ gave him the same advice, which he utterly ignored over and over as evidenced by his increasingly pathetic responses.

Is he the guy who asked about bathing with(out) clothes on or something equally insane? I didn’t read that thread, but I vaguely remember seeing it.

He’s the guy who PM’ed me shortly after my arrival here on the board to ask me how a paraplegic might go about certain activities because he was writing a book. Yet, supposedly, _he_ is a paraplegic himself.

No idea.

He has spina bifida, IIRC.

Yeah, that’s what he’s said; he’s a paraplegic due to spina bifida. But why then would he ask me about life in a wheelchair? He _uses_ one.

That’s not the same as being a paraplegic with a spinal cord injury. I’m just saying that it is conceivable (though pretty odd, admittedly) for a spina bifida sufferer to ask about the experiences of someone like yourself.

[Devil’s advocate]Because a guy who came to paraplegia suddenly in early adulthood might have a different perspective on things than a guy who has been in one most of his life? Because sometimes it’s only when you brainstorm with others in a similar situation to you that you realise something is a common experience to you both/all and not unique to you? Because you lack mad social skills and reach out to others using lame cover stories because you don’t know any other way to make a friend?

Well none of his questions concerned any of the differences between our respective disabilities. They were basic “how-do-you-manage” questions of daily life in a wheelchair. They were questions coming from someone seemingly ignorant of the subject altogether.

I’m not telling any of this because I’m trying to accuse **ETV78** of anything. I’m telling this because it makes absolutely no sense, I’ve brought this up to **ETV** here on the board before without a response and this thread seemed like a good place to bring it up.  
Oh, and I just remembered: He was asking ME questions because the character in his book that he was writing was a paraplegic _due to spina bifida_. So make of that what you will.
