He’s just a dummy who is very clearly the most credulous person on the planet. I imagine he’s returned more than one “defective” dictionary because it had the word “gullible” in it.

I was actually in Anal Kiddies 2. I was the one with the giant lollipop and the pained look.

Back when the board went pay to post, there was some idle speculation about pay for titles, which led to some idle speculation about pay for other poster’s titles.

I stated then that I would be willing to pay good money to assign **ralph124c** the title of “The SDMB’s Stupidest Poster.”

I stand by that.

I think this thread is pretty disgusting. They’re both paying members who, from what I’ve seen (and granted I don’t go into GD), are pretty harmless. Both of their spelling and grammar is a little suspect, but really, no one can get over it? No one can utilize the ignore feature for these people if it’s such a problem?

I think Ralph has brought some things up that, at first, seemed pretty dumb, but turned into good conversation.

Is it possible this mob mentality, this “let’s be the cool guys and gang up on two of the ‘dumb’ posters” would stem from so many Dopers being on the receiving end of that treatment throughout high school? Argent Towers, I’m looking at you and your girlfriend who looks like a retarded Asian who was unfortunate enough to be beaten in the face with a barbed-wire baseball bat.

He’s making a list, guys.

Actually, for Gonzo, I’ve always pictured [Dwight Schrute](http://weblogs.newsday.com/entertainment/tv/blog/0000004457_20060919223632.jpg) from _The Office_.

Seriously…do a search on gonzomax posts and read a few samples. It’s not JUST about the fact that the guy can’t put together a coherent sentence to save his life. But read for yourself. If you still feel he’s being persecuted unfairly come back.

As for ralph124c…I don’t have that many memories of his posts one way or the other. Just the sample from the OP though shows s/he needs some serious work putting his posts together before hitting the submit button.

All I’m going to say is, you’re really lucky that this is a message board and not in person, or else you’d be really, really sorry that you said that. It’s really easy to make remarks like that on a computer. I’d like to see you try saying that to my face. I’d smash your face in so bad you’d wish you were fucking dead.

You idiot. “I don’t go into GD.” Then you’ve been missing 99 percent of the posts from these people that have annoyed everyone so much.

Anyway who the fuck are you? You have 299 posts and looking through them, the majority of them have been in stupid “madness” game threads in “The Game Room” and discussions about the show “Lost.” You’re a real intellectual guy, you are. A regular fucking Hemingway.

Real tough guy over the internet. They all are. Come here to Indiana sometime and I’ll knock your fucking teeth out.

**AT** , calm down. Responding like this isn’t doing you any favors. Look, I agree with you that his comments were way over the pale. With that said, we’re on a message board, and nobody needs to get his or her face smashed in.

At best you’re a violent yet noble boyfriend, at worst you’re a jealous fool protecting your e-peen. That’s my 2 cents.
