Nah, I’ve seen much worse. I sometimes like to, when I see a banned poster in an old thread, look at their history to see if I can find clues about the reason for their banning. I ran across this guy today, and [it wasn’t subtle](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=777608).

Actually, he (apparently) decided to dial it back by 57.143857143%.

Dialing it back by .42857142858% would have led to **Luciano699.57143857142**. And dialing it back by 42.857142858% would have gotten him to **Luciano400**.

Apropos of nothing in particular (he posted while whistling nonchalantly), maybe somewhere in Da RULEZ[sup]TM[/sup] we could have a specific mention of autism/Asperger’s/BPD NOT granting a waiver of the general “don’t be a jerk” rule.

You get those things too? There I am have fun and suddenly I find myself swatting furiously. If only there was some kind of spray or repellent.

I can’t think of any way to get rid of time flies. I’ve tried arrows and bananas, but it seems they _like_ those :mad:

They gather around things like watches, clocks and timepieces. You can easily make a trap at home out of an empty plastic bottle, some vinegar and an old time-measuring device.

That’s why it doesn’t work! I was using an [old-time measuring device](https://www.pinterest.ca/belasalamon/v-measuring-tools/).

You guys are so dense, they’re not “time flies” - time is a verb. When you’re having fun, you time the flies and it’s even more fun than sitting there not timing them. Duh!

You’re half-right. The “flies” actually are actually on your pants, which is why you’re having fun.

That was not a banana, it was the Master’s TARDIS. The one with the working Chameleon Circuit.

well then i know i am circumventing, but I just want to share my last words in this site. Yes, this is Luciano700. As an autist I have a hard time distinguishing ableist jerks and bullies from the teasers to the easily irritated. I need to learn how to use my pressure more when I being actually threatened or hurt. Because then this will just keep ruining my reputation and lead to being less likely to get accepted. With that said, I will stop posting political and social topics everywhere for awhile. I will go the library and keep working on my views. BTW theraph session was good, got more advice on how to pick up my social cues and just learn to adapt to the social disadvantages of being autistic. Ableism is as much as racism and sexism as told by my therapist. I just wish not be remembered at all as a troll, a misguided dude with poor social skills sure, but please not as troll, and btw I typed this in a textbox then copied and pasted.
