I _think_ that I am the only one with a reasonable excuse for posting dribble this week. (Surgery, drugs, inanity) The rest of you should knock it out right this second. (I mean the Jared’s nonsense. The rest of it is fine.)

Can we still say fetus, transgendered and science-based?

Looks like you’re gunning for us. We’ll just have to steel ourselves against the onslaught, hoping we have a germ of a chance to win! 😃

Seriously, though, hope you’re feeling better.

Either way, there’s no way he isn’t trolling. He’s clearly getting a kick out of upsetting people. If not for the rules, I’d have referenced him “getting off” on it.

I’m debating what I can post about it in-thread without being accused of junior modding. I’d actually hoped to read a thread about the topic mentioned in the title. Even the Republican denials of exerting influence would be on topic.

But vicarious resentfulness and tu quoque snark? Not really of any value. Nor the people feeding the troll and allowing the thread to be hijacked.

Thank you. I think there’s a very good chance that none of this will make any sense.

Yes? I can’t make any sense out of it anyway.

He reminds me of a departed poster whose thesis, during the 2016 Election, seemed to be that the most just outcome for the world would be a victory by Trump, followed by policies that wreck the American economy, and drive the country into third-world nation status.

Some variation on “truth seeking,” IIRC.

How about [this](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=844997)? **SC007** would like us to know about epigenetically transferring memories from our ancestors, who in this case cut off someone’s head. :eek:

As always, troll or crazy, YMMV.

Sunny Day  
Sweepin’ the clouds away  
On my way to where the air is sweet

Can you tell me how to get,  
How to get to Sesame Street

Come and play  
Everything’s A-OK  
Friendly neighbors there  
That’s where we meet

(Sunny Daze is _not_ actually in the lyrics. Took me a while to figure that out, because I am SMRT today.)
