There’s a great photo I saw on Facebook (can’t find it at the moment that shows Shelly Duvall in that scene in _The Shining_ in the bathroom as Jack Nicholson is chopping through the door. There’s a caption over her that says “Republicans.” The bottom half of the photo has a face peering through, but it’s not Jack – Its’ AOC!

I captioned that: “Heeeeere’s Sandy!”

I imagine our friend, referenced in the quote above, wakes up every night from a nightmare where AOC is standing over his bed. He lets out an agonized wail that would do a toddler proud. Odds of sheets needing changed…fifty-fifty.

This is not a particularly new poster, but I think we would be remiss in not celebrating the fact that, after being relatively low-key for a while, he’s recently revealed himself to be one of the world’s leading experts on UFOs and extraterrestrials, and specifically on the [conspiracy of the US government to stop them from giving us free energy and “the” cure for cancer](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=870394). An expert, in fact, of such brilliant insights on these matters that he’s already received a topic ban at least to avoid introducing UFOs and extraterrestrials into threads that have, like, nothing to do with UFOs and extraterrestrials.

Plus, there’s definitely [some kind of Russian connection there](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=21477467&postcount=13). [Very](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=866539) [definitely](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=850984). In fact, he has [a kind of Russo-Trumpian vibe](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=810149).

He asks “Is the United States government hiding the existence of ET visitations?” and I love that the first three replies are:

The odd eruption seems to tie directly into the Russo-Trumpian link in my last post. Apparently he believes that Trump is totally for the little guy, and the folks who voted for Hillary in the last election – all 65,853,514 of them – are all “upper class white college educated Millennials and the Wall Street elite”.

I had no idea Wall Street was that big (or that Wall Street historically always voted Democrat, another news revelation to me)! Such large numbers can be explained, however, by the hypothesis that most of those votes were cast by shape-shifting aliens disguised as legitimate human voters, [something that Trump has indeed claimed](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-10-23/trump-says-democrats-encourage-voting-by-undocumented-immigrants).

Trump, definitely. After all, surely a Russian internet mole wouldn’t use the nym Kamaski; that would be like John Doe using the alias Jim Doe when he’s trying to hide.

Most Russian names do not end in “-ski”. That is more of a Polish thing. Russian names often end in “-in”, “-ov” (“-off”) or “-ev”.

When do I learn the shape-shifting part? I’ve got a few things to try out.

[here you go](https://wanderingwomanwondering.wordpress.com/2014/11/17/hamrammr-lessons-in-shapeshifting/) – much more affordable than a ticket on a Guild Freighter to Bene Tleilax.

I’ve shape shifted. It’s easy, actually. I wanted to change my shape by increasing the size of my beer belly, and looking back, I don’t recall even breaking a sweat.

I shape shifted 3 times in the past. At the beginning it was quite pleasant and in the end it was very painful. It lasted 9 months each time.

Is WillFarnaby getting dumber/crazier? His latest posts in several threads, but especially in the Utah split thread have been nuts even for him.

Yeah, that whole “going full Waco” thing from the Utah Split thread is disturbing to say the least.
