That’s exactly why this thread is here. He has a handful of victim cards and knows they don’t do any good in IMHO, where this thread should have been in the first place.

Clothy, for you, your president sings. I had no idea he sang so well.

YouTube well worth the 1:57 play time.

I like the ones that have lengthy blogs attached about honour and integrity and walking the warrior’s path. Trying to sell memberships to a rinky-dink shopping mall McDojo doesn’t make you Musashi Miyamoto.

I pit the advertisement that pops up one the SDMB that hijacks you to the stupid [Facebook-Walmart.com](http://Facebook-Walmart.com) bullshittery and locks up my iPhone. Thank god I have made it three whole damn days without it popping back up. I hate that thing. Just opening up the dope hijacks my phone. I don’t even click on anything.

“Mother fucker” and all that since this is the pit.

I’m sorry, this is abuse. You want Internet ads, room 12_A_.

I could care less about popups and autoplaying videos, which are merely annoying. I have adblockers installed because I’ve gotten malware from ads, including ads from this very board. It’s hard to be more annoying than board bozo clothumper, but that shit manages.

You can choose to ignore someone you don’t like, but the ad hijacking your browser isn’t under your control.

I’d wager the terrorist ads are worse than any poster.

The funny part is he thinks this happens because the pages are _badly designed_.

**running\_coach** actually provides some value to the board,\* rather than reducing its value, like you.

\*Non just for spam control, but for annoying **Precious Snowflakes** like you.

I fully understand that the majority of people on this board, like you for example, have less than the mental capacity of a five year old when it comes to posting. I see proof of this every single day. Your quoted post above is a perfect example.

I posted a legitimate gripe. I’m quite sure others have that same gripe. But in the liberal world, that doesn’t matter. It’s all about who posted it. And you people still wonder why we say liberalism is a mental disorder.

In his own words, the board is circling the drain yet he can’t pull himself away from it, either. It’s like he has a pathological need to feel persecuted by everyone to his left. Thing is, he’s so far right that even **Bricker** is to his left.

Just another form of trolling by **C’hump** in the one forum where trolling is allowed to an extent. Nothing to see here.

A 'Fuck off" in only 4 posts! Is that a record? There’s only- let me count the ways, 3,2- 2 ways to beat that, any more and you’d have to have a Clothahump OP consisting only of the phrase “Fuck off”. The bar has been raised.

And yet the liberals here are more willing to call out liberal stupidity than you are to call out right-wing stupidity.  
Look at the thread you started. Who’s submitted actual Stupid Liberal Ideas? Liberals. While you think a college student doing something stupid represents liberals, you missed the Democrat in the HoR who wants psychological testing for Presidential candidates. That’s major league Stupid Liberal Idea. Meanwhile, you’re still playing t-ball.  
Of course, if a Repub had proposed such an idea while Obama was in office, you’d be cheering it. So much for your integrity.

You know (or think) all this but you posted the thread anyway. You’re a fuckwit with less learning capacity than a flatworm.
