That’s it. I don’t tend toward the long, poetic strings of invective that characterize many pittings–just: you are a piece of shit.

Well, that was the most recent. But technically I’d have to link to around 95% of all his posts.

Is this the pit thread for guys to participate in? Will there be a seperate, but equal thread for the women to hold their discussion of the piece of shit?

Marcus has never said or implied anything about “equal.”

Ending his latest diatribe with “Fight me” labels him squarely as “boring troll” in my book.

Who let that out of its cave?

This wanton mixing of troglodytes with the general public really has to stop.

Especially in an IMHO thread. At least in GD it could be construed as an invitation to debate. But no, this aptly-abbreviated **MF** just wanted to drop a turd into the punchbowl and scamper off.

Yes. I think this place would stand to gain a lot of people would work just a bit on being less willing troll fodder.

There’s nothing worth engaging in the thread that sparked this one. So—don’t.

I didn’t remember his history (incel-ish, by my reading) – if I had, I probably wouldn’t have responded in that thread.

I’m truly honored that you dedicated an entire thread to me.

So I’m a “piece of shit?” I disagree. Most people who know me and interact with me IRL think I’m a decent guy. But hey, if I’m pissing of the super-liberals on Straightdope, I must be doing something right.

Impeccable logic. Now have a cookie and go play with your friends.

So what you’re saying is that liberals are “pissed off” by extreme misogyny, ignorance and pugnacious assholery and conservatives are fine with all that. Got it.

So much winning.

You know, for once I’d like to have someone come here and say, “Actually, most people think I’m an asshole IRL too.” _Them_ I’d believe.

I think the Three Billy Goats Gruff would be well acquainted with Marcus Flavius.

It’s the absolute least we could do. Really.

I don’t believe for a second you’re a better person IRL than you are here. You just happen to surround yourself with people who think like you, so of course you all like one another. Not sure I’d take comfort and pride in that. I mean, all types of bigots and assholes manage to find like minded low-lives with whom to share their degeneracy. You don’t even have to look very hard. Just kick over a largish rock. Or attend a Trump rally. Places crawling with just your type of ‘decent’ folk.

I’m pretty sure I’m not a “super-liberal,” and you do sound like a bit of a jagoff.

I just did a quick perusal of a couple years’ of his posts. He’s got to be exaggerating his positions on issues just to get a rise out of us. If he’s not, he is one miserable asshole… hates life and suicide equally. Thinks his father should take care of him forever, but hates _him,_ too. Oh, has no friends and hates people who are interested in life. Actually, he hates people, period.
