That sounds like a sure way for hypocrites to get all the rights to having sex with women.

My husband is fond of saying:

''Cats. Can’t live with ‘em; can’t live with ‘em!’’

He thinks he’s hilarious.

Yup.

It’s like the Time Cube of human ethics\*. :eek:

\*Sort of. Like Time Cube talking about time, he wasn’t using “ethics” in any sense that would be familiar or understandable to normal well-adjusted humans.

ETA: But he’s gone. Should we even be talking about him? I mean, I don’t think he was a troll in the classic sense, but you can’t rule out that he’d be back to secretly bask in our adoration of his genius or something.

Judging by what you just said on the “favorite short stories” thread, you should appreciate [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20356913&postcount=88) post in Forest Gump’s thread…

Don’t worry, he’ll be back again soon enough; this was at least the second time, probably third or more.

He’s started many threads, some of them good. You’re way too sensitive.

Protoboard doesn’t strike me as a troll. A bit of an oddity perhaps but not a troll. More likely autistic, in my not-so-serious opinion. 😛

"These facts aren’t the ones I want to hear. Until you present me with the facts I want to hear, I have won the argument, hahaha!‘’

Reminds me of that guy who was pissed off that he wasn’t allowed to physically assault a woman (‘‘harpy’’) protester for standing in his way. This issue seems to be a recurring one in matters of law. ‘‘But that isn’t how I want the law to be!’’

Here is a snippet from the legal code, out of context and without looking at the jurisprudence surrounding it. I win!! Seriously, why do posters here bother interacting with him?
