Fake news, fake news! The proceeds to fail at reading comprehension as well as failing to understand what fake news is. When it’s explained to him that fake new requires intent to deceive, he pulls a trumpian version of the creationist “how do you know, were you there” with “how do you know what his motives were?”. Then ignores ppl correcting him and says hey check out this video from The View!

As long as we’re pairing up nincompoops, **HurricaneDitzy** and **Octaputz** are a pretty cute couple too. In fact, I think they both have honorary degrees from Trump University, class of 2016.

Actually, over at S-4 I call you way more interesting things. I even speculate on your family tree. Actually, it’s not a tree so much as a root system, but it’s really fun tracing down the human evolution line, past troll, to tuber, then Octaputz.

No, but we’ve got a pretty good idea of whether **CrazyTiger** is mentally ill. I suppose the hint was in the name.

“I want scientific proof that X is not a mental illness! Also, the only scientific disciplines that determine mental illness _aren’t science_!”

LOL.

A trainwreck has a certain quality that can fascinate a person staring at it. That thread cannot be described as a trainwreck, as such, because it lacks that quality. I am not clear why you would keep looking at it. It is more like some kind of desolate _Nafud_ that has little appeal. Unless, of course, you have some kind of pressing personal interest in transgender issues.
