**Bevaviour?** Errr . . . yeah. It’s from the Old High German, meaning “lazy dumbass who can’t manage to proofread.” As in, “my bevavior really sucks today.” [sup](Did you buy that? Damn. Didn’t think so.)[/sup] ---

My, for an old “feminist” who hangs around in her garden picking up doggy dos and scratching their sores you are suddenly eloquent. But, even so, was it really necessary to carefully relate these activities 2000 times? Getting half a dozen people to tell you they liked hearing about it all - that was pretty impressive. But making me feel embarrassed I was ever here - that was just plain cruel. I wish to God I had never read half the stuff I have now in trying to ascertain whether you might need help of some kind of help. Usefully, though, I came across Manhatten’s FBI jokes. My FBI jokes resulted in this nasty, vituperative thread. But he’s a guy right? My posts label me a psycho but threads titled “what part of the rabbit do you bite off first?” guarantee dopers a badge of mental health? Get a life. I am pretty embarrassed. I feel sorry for Mr Adams. I would like to thank him for allowing me to use his message boards and apologise for things I have done and problems I have caused. ---

::hooting with laughter:: Yep, right on schedule, a personal attack (however ineptly executed) followed by righteous self-pity. You are a piece of work, **G. Nome**. Follow along carefully now…this is _message board_. People write down their thoughts and ideas. _That’s_ how they communicate and get to know one another. _You_ are the only person who can embarrass you. No one puts words down for you; either stand by them and suck it up, or discuss, or apologize, or clarify but _quit whining_! 'Scuse me, gotta go out in the garden, pick up some doggy dos and scratch their sores. I’d tell everybody about it, but the FBI has been rigging the dog poop with directional microphones again.

And **Jinwicked** wins the Partridge Family Memorial “Oh No–They’re Back Again!” Nostalgia Tour Grand Prize for the most pointless bump of 2002. :rolleyes: Just one question: **why?** If ya just wanna discuss G.Nome’s latest, start a new thread, for heaven’s sakes. We all KNOW it’s been going on for over two years now, ya don’t have to remind us. 😃 And, er, Elf? We don’t throw around the “T-word” anymore here, okay? 😉 G.Nome may be the Antipodes’ answer to the Weekly World News personified, but she’s not a troll. ---

That is just my opinion though, but one based on the conduct and content of the subject in question. However, I am willing to listen to arguments to the contrary. ---

I have to agree with **elf6c** that **G.Nome** exhibits behaviour in her posts specifically designed to get a rise out of her audience. A special kind of th’ breed, perhaps? ---

That’s what I thought, too, actually (the occasional paranoid outburst notwithstanding). 😃 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/g-nome-you-are-an-idiot/28984.md?page=5)
