Some people vote with their feet, others vote with their sex organs.

I have zero doubt that he is Ecmandu. Also probably [a sociopath](http://www.minddisorders.com/Flu-Inv/Hare-Psychopathy-Checklist.html).

Metally ill troll is the most likely answer.

There’ve been a handful of socks from a few years ago busted recently, their join dates years apart. Deliberate actions or just assholes who realized they already belonged and decided to troll on 18 wheeler b/c they thought they could?

You have to admit though, in a way the troll is right about free will.

People in the thread mostly know he’s a troll. At least they recognize that he’s posting a ridiculous, unsupportable position just so that he can watch them labor to argue about it.

But even knowing this they’re replying to him. The siren call of the troll is irresistible to many.

It’s not like he had a choice.

But Jesus, what a dumb argument.

Speaking of socks caught in a dragnet and older accounts coming out of the woodwork to troll, this is from protoboard’s [Am I not welcome here?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=758099) thread.

A now-banned poster stopped in just to say they liked the cut of proto’s jib.

The account Robert163 had actually joined the boards in 2005 - it had been here a little over ten years when it posted that. Apparently proto wasn’t keeping track of which sock was which.

I think whoever banned that account may have missed a stray sock or two from the same drawer.

I guess you could say that was a proto-sock.

Did that hot, steamy mess get so bad that he gave up on trying to find a way to spin it or is he simply waiting for the next talking point from his handlers?

That sentence hurts my brain. Not the content, the [convoluted] grammar.
