\*\*constanze \*\*wrote an incredible post that was ignored. Pearls before a swine, I guess.

ETA: That thread seems pretty IMHO to me. Perhaps skirting the rule of only one active thread allowed on the front page?

You see FJ, here’s the thing. You didn’t reply to a _single_ other post. Only the one that would allow you to pry for personal information. That tells me that your post in GD wasn’t a legitimate attempt at debate, it was voyeur bait. Whether that rises to trolling or not isn’t for me to say, that’s for the mods. But do you think we don’t notice that stuff?

Your entire posting history has been one huge (creepy in many cases) voyeuristic effort, and you know what I don’t even care. If that’s what makes you happy, other people what to participate and you aren’t breaking the rules, so what? But you should own it. The way you go about it is trollish and creepy.

**The dude** strikes again [with another brilliant query](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=828594): doesn’t everyone wear – and sleep in – the same clothes for many days at a time?

That one is actually quite revealing. Apparently the lad wears bedclothes for days on end, which is consistent with being institutionalized. I assume that such individuals are occasionally led to a recreational area and permitted to use computers under supervision for a limited time, allowed to post gibberish, and then led back by the nice men wearing white coats when the time is up [emphasis mine]:

He does sound drugged. Plausible.

Brain damage from past drugging? Also plausible.

That’s an unfair summation, I think. His question is whether people just wear their normal clothes to bed. And he says he sometimes keeps wearing the same clothing for days. That could easily be weekends or on vacation, when he has nowhere to go.

His claim that said clothes are still clean is a little weird, but that’s about it.

In case that thread ever devolves to recipes, I think this one would be appropriate:

[Minnie’s Chocolate Pie from _The Help_.](http://www.food.com/recipe/minnies-chocolate-pie-from-the-help-462430) But I think they may have left out one ingredient.

OK, I think we can help **dude robert** narrow down his plaintive request for informative information on all manner of subjects and shit to the following category of informative information that should take first priority: “_Clothing, washing, and general hygiene: is it necessary (or at least desirable)?_”. Turns out, the answer is “yes”, and those of us with any chance of ever being within sight or ten miles downwind of the **dude** pray that he will be motivated to make this informative discovery.

I worked in a yorn mine one summer when I was in college. The fumes can cause brain damage, if you aren’t careful.
