> No, he does not. He’s just a raving idiot. I once got into trouble in GD (which, granted, is not the Pit) for making a mild joke about OCD. You’re making a much more egregious one by equating the behavior of one of our resident morons with Asperger’s. I don’t think you know what the word means, and trying to make that parallel is a very poor reflection on you.

> **WillFarnaby** does not present as having Asperger’s. He presents as being fundamentally disconnected from reality, and in his delusional brain the fact that almost everyone disagrees with him on almost everything stands as proof of his unique genius. There are various terms, in common parlance and in clinical practice, to describe this syndrome, but the most fitting word I can think of at the moment to describe **WillFarnaby** is “delusional”, and possibly insane.

Which topic did I ether you on? Global warming?

Sorry, but to be fair you have to admit it’s really easy to confuse you for an incel.

I appreciate that. It’s something I see a lot, especially on Reddit, from people who wouldn’t cross a lot of other lines.

No, I really don’t. Wikipedia describes incels as follows in the “Ideology” section:

> [@](#):
>
> Discussions often revolve around the belief that men are owed sex; other common topics include idleness, loneliness, unhappiness,[41] suicide, sexual surrogates, prostitutes and the acquirement of sex robots,[42] as well as various attributes they believe increase one’s desirability as a partner such as income or personality.[24] Some endorse suicide among incels,[43] violence against sexually active women and more sexually successful men,[26][44][45] harassment of women,[17] and catfishingwomen.[17]

If you think this in any way resembles my posting history, you may need to see someone about your complete break with reality. :dubious:

> [@Ambivalid](#):

GMAFB. :rolleyes: I guarantee you if I hadn’t said anything, there would be people reading that who would think to themselves “huh, I guess I missed that thread”.

Well, you’re pretty boring in general, so it’s hard to say.

He’s been mixing frantic backpedaling with bellicose, semi-articulate rage-posting ever since.

Seems to me like a credible allegation that needs to be investigated.

I notice people saying that name, but I’m missing the context. It that just **JB99** ’s name being misspelled, or is there something more to it?

No, I just misspelled it. At first it was an honest mistake, but once I noticed it seemed funnier to keep doing it.
