By keeping him occupied flinging his poo in this thread we can hopefully prevent him from metastasizing to other threads. ---

Bad enough people think you’re an idiot, can’t also have them thinking you’re a pussy as well. Best to just keep mumbling criptic nonsense under your breath. Perhaps they’ll all get bored and think you’re crazy and leave you alone. May as well try that approach. Can’t possibly get any worse, right? ---
