**Velocity** has never been a shining beacon of progressive thought, but [this seemed more overt trolling than his usual subtle racism](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=20997500#post20997500).

I held out hope for a long time but I give up. **Octopus** is a troll.

Yup.

He’s the guy who people say “you know, you don’t have to be that much of an asshole” and his response, every damned time, is “Well they insulted me so I’m just responding in kind”.

Which only makes everyone around him think “wow, what an asshole.” and walk away.

As opposed to Morgenstern, whose entire life revolves around being an asshole and shitting on every thread he can.

Speaking of **Morgenstern** , I gotta ask - what’s your story? Not even a year ago, you were flying that misogyny flag high and proud [in this thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=830387), attacking **Sunny D** and every other woman who dared respond. Then you bragged on the Giraffe boards about how you loved to troll the retards over here. And now you’re the knight in shining armor defending the women.

So what happened? Were you just trolling then and outgrew it, or are you trolling now? Did you have some epiphany in the last year and actually turn into the decent human being you now appear to be?

I hope it’s the latter because you’re making good contributions to the misogyny threads, but I can’t quite square that with what I’ve seen in the past.

I’m not buying the conversion. I think it was just a good excuse to troll the thread by offering diversionary insults, kind of like how he and octopus have attempted to derail the Male Centrism thread with the same crap.

Chimera is our resident meth head. He complained about his wife leaving him due to mental problems, apparently his problems.

If your intent was to convince people that you’re not a troll, this was probably not the right way to do it.

Told you. He’s just a troll who gets off on insulting people and attempting to derail conversations by doing so. He’s probably off bragging on the other board about how much fun he’s having doing it.

All this talk about unwanted male comments in female oriented threads and **nearwildheaven** decides it’s a great time to troll the male erectile dysfunction thread by bragging about sexually harassing a male coworker.

Some people just have no shame.

I hereby retract my earlier statement about you seeming to have become a decent human being. FFS.

Oh good–there’s a place to tell Morgenstern what a dumbshit he’s being without further shitting up another thread.

He keeps trying to lord his feminist credentials over me in other threads, talking down to me, acting like somehow he’s guided me to wisdom or something. Meanwhile he’s being absolutely despicable toward other people in the thread.

He hasn’t become a good person; he’s just joined a different team, and is trying to prove his bona fides. Same shithead, different t-shirt.

(edit: I don’t think he’s a troll, but I’m really really loath to use that term: never attribute to deceptive malice what can be adequately explained by imbecilic sincere malice, and all.)

See, I didn’t call you a retard behind your back. You wasted all that time on the vanity search hot key and lurking only to find out you’re a retard everywhere. It might be better to search “retard” - more hits for you.
