Too subtle, people in the top 1% of IQ need to have it spelled out for them.

Not too subtle. Perfection, as always, from the much admired Vinyl Turnip !

Could you, um, PM me some pics of the circle jerks. They are, uh, for a friend.

The things you lie about aren’t that particularly creative or involved, so it doesn’t matter how creative you are or are not. It doesn’t take a Shakespeare to claim that circle jerks were common in only your particular place in the universe, or that you can have six-hour, thrusting marathon sex and can cum repeatedly without going soft. Your average run-of-the-mill middle school boy can come up with those.

A **Skad** you are not, but no one else here is either. That takes creativity. Claiming that your IQ is in the top 1% does not. And speaking of which, while I don’t see any evidence of your claimed brilliance, I do see your repeated claims of brilliance. I have no doubt that you do believe you are smarter than the rest of us.

For all the bragging about your intelligence and a “distinctive writing style” is it possible to produce paragraphs which are logically cohesive? What exactly does that have to do with telling the truth or not? I can see why you got washed out of your PhD program.

Were those reputable Dopers in the same room when you sexually assaulted your friend’s girlfriend in yet another of your impossible stories? If not, how can they verify that? Were they in the circle jerk as well?

If you are the genius you claim to be, you could calculate the odds of dozens of a-thousand-to-one or million-to-one stories all happening to the same person, but there is a much simpler explanation.

However, the reverse is also true. I know a metric shit-ton of stuff that you don’t know as much about. That is part of the reason why we are here.

Are you still addressing me or in your infinite brilliance confused me with someone else? I don’t believe I’ve ever written a post on human populations.

There a many posters who I deeply respect, and if any one of them were to claim an extremely unlikely event, I’d probably believe it. However if they were to start repeatedly spouting the same bullshit you do, then it wouldn’t be only me who would doubt them.

The problem with lying is that once you get the reputation for it, then all of your stories are suspect. Well, that and they don’t pass the sniff test, as with one of your latest bizarre claims about you and the armed robbers. You are right, you aren’t a particularly good fiction writer.

You write like a middle schooler.

FWIW, the time you don’t take to hang out with Shag, I’ll gladly hang out with you. 😉

His comment about his “distinct writing style” made me LOL.

Or have seen in comic books or (porn) movies, and have read on the internet.

As has been said, you don’t have a “distinct writing style,” you’re just terrible at it. You can’t even write a simple narrative that doesn’t have to be clarified with numerous follow up posts in response to others.

> [@](#):

> I make mistakes just like everyone does but that doesn’t qualify me as a liar.

No one is calling you a liar for making mistakes. They’re calling you a liar due to your obvious lies. To take just one example, that ridiculous story about the boyfriend switcheroo cannot \*possibly \*be true. No one who has had actual physical contact with another human being can possibly believe it. It’s ludicrous, and did not happen. It’s a lie.

> [@](#):

No, it doesn’t. Unless these reputable Dopers were present when all these ridiculous things supposedly happened, the fact that they know you means precisely dick.

I am always happy to learn something from someone like him but you can’t when they explode and resort to personal attacks for little reason. Someone like him would be a nightmare coworker for me.

Yes, because **Blake** takes the time to respond to your bullshit posts, he must be “on one of the spectrums.” It’s all **Blake** ’s fault you’re full of shit.

I’m sure if I ever need to know the best way to mop a restroom floor or get fingerprints off glass, you’ll be the first I’ll consult.
