You come into the Pit, say asinine things, act like a total shithead, and then get weepy when people insult you. Just like your idol Trump. It does speak volumes about you that you’re such a hypocrite and so completely unaware of your own behavior. ---

At this point I feel anything short of Clothy levels is just sorta mission creep. I don’t like **Shodan** very much, but he’s not a troll, and does contribute \*something \*to the board’s culture. Same with **Okrahoma**. > [@Colibri](#): > > **The Precious Snowflake** says they’re all gone, so he’s evidently not counting himself in that number. The best way for **Clothahump** to improve the board is to stop posting here. Now I’m not going to say I’m recommending this, but I will point out that if _someone_ were to just magically disappear **Clothahump** ’s account for no apparent reason and without any trace, I don’t think too many tears would be shed. ---

I think I quit paying attention to Clothahump about a year and a half ago when he called me (insinuated that I am) a bigot. ---

But your first sentence explains why we need him here. He’s a perfect example of someone who genuinely believes what his right-wing, low-intelligence news sources tell him, thus providing a useful benchmark against which to measure people who spout similar bullshit solely for the purpose of trolling us. Poe’s Law is hard enough to deal with without losing such a valuable resource. ---

> [@Monty](#): > > I think I quit paying attention to Clothahump about a year and a half ago when he called me (insinuated that I am) a bigot. Coming from a misanthrope like him, though, that’s high praise. He wanted to show you that he understood why your bigotry only extends to pieces of fecal dandruff like himself, but he’s like a Smurf. Or [Snarf](https://www.google.com/search?q=snarf&rlz=1C1CHFX_enUS591US591&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjLrIyy1cbSAhWCLSYKHUK0C0AQ_AUICCgB&biw=1366&bih=672). Certain bits of language are too complex for his pathetic little brain to make his vocal chords say, so he can only repeat some words where intelligent conversation should go. Thus, he’s like a parrot owned by [Nell](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110638/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1). You may get him to say things beyond “fuck off,” but it’s just some rambling bit of language that only people with serious cognitive deficiencies can comprehend. Cavemen drawing on cave walls are more advanced. ---

No, we need **Clothahump** the way Lou Costello needed Bud Abbott. Seriously, who has not read one of his posts, said “oh, geez, really?” and then had a good laugh. ---
