> [@BigT](#): > > He’s given more than enough information for you to find it on your own. You really think the mods would let him get away with a direct link? It’s apparently “advocating for a board war” just to say negative things about the place or to bring up things people say elsewhere, even in the Pit. I have no idea though why you think that the mods would care if someone provided a direct link to a thread on [http://boards.straightdope.com](http://boards.straightdope.com) How could that cause a board war? I wasn’t able to search easily from my phone but now I’m at a computer again and so I was able to search the **Straight Dope message boards** for posts with “cesario” in the post and posted by Mr.Dibble. Quite a few come up so you are correct, it wasn’t very hard. It would have been much more difficult if I had searched somewhere besides [http://boards.straightdope.com/](http://boards.straightdope.com/) though since obviously the thread in question is at [http://boards.straightdope.com/](http://boards.straightdope.com/) and not at some other board. ---

Are you really not seeing the self-righteousness there? I said that if not for feminism, she would most likely be considered a piece of property. I didn’t mention, nor did I imply, men like me. ---

Oh yeah! I remember that thread. **Dibbs** came off as rather creepy there. Probably shoulda shut up a lot earlier and never brought it up again, but folks are blind to their own shortcomings, no matter how many times they are beat over the head with them. ---

[/QUOTE] While I’m happy to admit that thread wasn’t my finest hour (talk about taking “being accepting” _way_ too far…) I see nothing wrong with saying I’ve been hit on by kids, as it’s the truth. I’d love to know what’s “cringe worthy” _about immediately saying how disturbing that was_. You know, the bit you conveniently ‘forgot’ to quote: > [@Cesario, you're awfully sanctimonious for a pedophile](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cesario-youre-awfully-sanctimonious-for-a-pedophile/511973/673): > > Not so fast…I have been hit on by children, including offers of BJs and anal sex. **Pretty disturbing, let me tell you.** …and let’s be clear - I never _defended_ **Cesario** ’s paedophilia: > [@](#): > > It should be fairly obvious to anyone who’s read these threads what **Cesario** ’s predilections are.

> [@MrDibble](#): > > …and let’s be clear - I never _defended_ **Cesario** ’s paedophilia: Of course not! Those [86 posts you made in that thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/misc.php?do=whoposted&t=533989), arguing that people were being unfair to **Cesario** , could hardly be construed as a defense. More of an enthusiastic observation, really. And, most importantly, you never implied anyone was a White Knight. I wish I could say the same. ☹ ---

> [@MrDibble](#): > > Like I should give a shit what you think, troll? Two things: 1. Learn to take good advice, whatever the source. Note that not everybody was here back then, and most that were had forgotten about it until YOU brought it up. 2. You’re calling Guin a “troll.” If you are lucky, she won’t riposte with “paedophile enabler.” People in glass houses, and all, and I know which I’d rather be. ---

Whoa, wait a second here. YOU were the one who keeps bringing the whole thing up. Not us. Then, when we say, “hey, you know, maybe it might be a good idea to drop it,” WE’RE the trolls? Okay. Makes sense. YOU were the one who mentioned Cesario here. No one else. YOU. And if you have a problem with Giraffe and his board, GO OVER THERE and deal with it, rather than trying to start a board war. Otherwise, shut your piehole. ---

He can’t, he’s too scared of **Fenris** to post anywhere else on the internet but here… He’s also an absolute fucking moron, with, as far as I can tell, no redeeming features whatsoever, so, well, actually he’d fit right in over there… But that’s not relevant right now. ---
