Trombosis has to be one of the most unintentionally hilarious typos I’ve seen recently. I hate when the blood flow is reduced to my trombone.

Until yesterday, corrolenius or whateverthefuckhisnameis, was making an ignorance filled argument for the germanic master race that predictably ended up in the pit. But it’s been disappeared, so can’t link for ref.

Fuck that nazi fetishist anyway. Good riddance.

Correlophus. Banned. His other threads are still up, but he shows as banned.

The current “active” list is now:  
pleks  
machinaforce  
femme jean  
Calico Joe

I call Dec 15th for pleks to meet the cornfield. Anyone else want to make some picks?

I predict pleck will go out in a blaze of stunning ignorance, but not before the money shot of having Trump’s dick in his mouth.

Trump’s dick is yuuuge! No way it will fit.

No waut, I got it wrong. Trump IS a yuuuge dick, but his penis will fit in a hamster’s mouth.

There’s a downside to that. Out of 20-something responses to his last opus, 6 came from Calico Jack. If we can get trolls calling to each other, like mastodons bellowing across primeval swamps\*, it keeps them occupied and out of regular threads.

Just FTR, I think you have done the great name of Calico Jack an injustice.

I’ll pick pleks to win, Calico Jack and femmejean to place and show. Hope to see them in the corn in about that order, but really, any order will do. No idea what to do about machinaforce. It may be around for awhile, kind of like the old nag that gets into the race because you bribed the track owner and doped up the nag and nobody’s gonna do anything about it, but everyone agrees that it’s very sad.

W00t! Who’s next - any picks? **Calico Jack** seems to be working pretty hard at being nonsensical. If this is his whole schtick, I could see an early banning. **machinaforce** seems to have stopped posting, or he’d be an easy pick. Decisions, decisions.

I’ll take **Calico Jack** by the 25th.

I’m going to miss him when he goes. There’s something a little poignant, in a pathetic kind of way, about someone who has no facts, no understanding, and a pitiful inability to employ logic even if he had any facts, who nevertheless wishes to pontificate to the world about selected subjects on which the world is apparently misinformed. The best part is his own self-congratulations, like the grand conclusion of the ethics thread “Well I think I’ve done a good job tearing down most ‘secular ethical’ arguments you regularly hear”. I bet he does.

**machinaforce** is different. His schtick is to post completely asinine questions, and then insult responders for not answering them to his satisfaction.

Do none of the respondents see the [join date?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=813981) Sadly, they probably have.

Looking at the replies, it seems that many have noticed the join date. They either noted it or their advice is definitely on the snarky side, e.g. next time marry an ugly woman. (Of course, with **jtur88** that remark could be completely serious.)

If the troll had come in as the woman in this scenario, I’m guessing we’d see a lot more action on the thread. So to speak. 😉

**Calico Jack** got a warning and a thread closure. He’s cornfield bound.
