> [@Chimera](#): > > Yeah, of course. It’s idiotic and makes me a moron to assume that when someone with whom I am unfamiliar jumps in to defend a hysterically hypocritical hyper-partisan like Adaher, that they’re of the same ilk. :rolleyes: Yeah, it is. Especially when nobody was defending his statements. ---

Yeah, I honestly expected a socking situation before I read the ATMB thread–that maybe he’d made a sock to hide out and talk without the baggage. Then when I saw it was a legal threat, I thought at least it would be something that would make sense. Instead, the “logic” goes from: “you’re too inexperienced to judge shows.” -\> “I have a cousin who auditioned for a TV show once but lost” -\> “How dare you insult my cousin (when no one had)!” -\> “I’m gonna sue you!” ---

> [@Plumpudding](#): > > Yeah, it is. Especially when nobody was defending his statements. Assuming she was right wing was, yes. Especially when the post specifically cites how she’s not right-wing. But the rest is pretty accurate. She was very much defending **adaher** ’s statements. The reason she supported **adaher** was that he said something bad about the Clintons, ignoring everything else. That is indeed partisan. And **adaher** was indeed trolling in that instance. There is no way he legitimately thought that this was an impeachable offense. He said what he said to rile people up. ---

I can’t tell you how many nights, before hitting the sack, I’d check to see if you’d had another “misunderstanding”. I’m a titch ‘on the spectrum’, and you made me feel part of a whole crowd.

I have trouble picking a single favorite **dougie** quote, but the Luann (comic) thread was rife with them. Suggestions of sex and lesbianism (:eek:) in the strip were met with assurances from him that the writer would never stoop so low. Yet **dougie** had no problem fetishizing certain characters, in his old-timey way. > [@So is Luann about to lose her virginity?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/so-is-luann-about-to-lose-her-virginity/626844/139): > > Tiffany is a bubblehead with a blouse full of goodies. ☹ ---

Encore pitiful. I gave and give no support to Adaher or his causes or positions, in fact I dislike them mostly (or do not care about them in the cases of pure american nonsense things I have no care about). It is the opposite of partisan. But you do demonstrate you are a butt hurt whiner who is very stupid and whiny.
