> [@El\_Kabong](#): > > Same here. His screen name is awesome, and although he’s got the potential to be annoying in large doses, at least he’s generally not frucking up other peoples’ threads with his gibberish. > And shit. A fine point. I don’t enjoy his posts since I’m generally here to converse, and he doesn’t make enough sense for that, but he’s also amazingly easy to avoid. I’m a pretty firm believer in not opening threads that don’t interest me. It’s not that difficult. ---

I’m a fan of funny, and it was amusing - at first. But, hey, to each their own. (Would someone mind explaining why faxmachine is amusing, cause I’m not seeing it.) ---

Combine this thread with my thread ([Leave Super Kapowlzer alone!! - About This Message Board - Straight Dope Message Board](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=560681)), and you get an explosion that will bring down half the internet and shit. ---

> [@ivn1188](#): > > So, **Snowmaster** , let me get this straight: **Super Kaplowzer** , who starts threads that you aren’t being forced to read, is annoying you because he’s more entertaining than you are? Didn’t you just buy into a thread on smoking that no one forced you to read? Hypocrite. ---

> [@Cicero](#): > > Didn’t you just buy into a thread on smoking that no one forced you to read? Hypocrite. Oh, but he _is_ being forced to read it. He has to read every thread in the Pit, so he can pass judgement on whether it belongs here. I think it’s a curse that was placed on him when he insulted a god in some pantheon or other. ---

I know you two are the buttbuddy twins (Shape of: troglodyte! Form of: cockduster pedophile 'stache!), but this level of incomprehension is amazing even for you. This thread is fine. OP is bitching about a poster. OP is also about as exciting as watching a super slow motion movie of grass growing. When people say stupid boring shit, and I feel like exerting myself, I will call them out on it. That’s what this whole “pit” thing is for. If it was MPSIMS or one of the other places where a bunch of chubby anime dorks discuss which Sailor Scout they would be, or where a bunch of cranky aging pseudo-intellectuals talk about their gross sexual experiences with other uggos, then I wouldn’t say anything. Because I wouldn’t read it. And really, the old “hypocrisy!!!1! ZOMG! Watch me chortle in a mature fashion at this crazy guy before I drive to the mall and try and punch someone for touching my pickup truck” thing? Overplayed. We all know you’re sitting there in your dead-end job searching the internets for meaning in between filling out DD-1215 reports. There’s no need to pretend for us. ---

I’d be Sailor Neptune! Wait … Is there a Sailor Uranus? ---

I always took a shining to Sailor Mercury myself, but I’m sure will volunteer to be a Sailor Uranus sooner or later. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-a-troll-confirming-his-own-idiocy-as-they-always-do/537111.md?page=2)
