Bonus points for Web of Trumpistas, however. I might use that.

So can we offically nominate **Magiver** as the board’s Most Tedious All-time Chicken Fucker?

Well, Most Tedious _Lying_ All-time Chicken Fucker, anyway.

Cueing **Magiver** disingenuous, thread-padding response along lines of “Cite where I’ve lied.” in 3…2…1…

If he doesn’t, can I ask for a cite? Not that I’m arguing, I just don’t know what you’re talking about.

And as Most Tedious in the non-chicken-fucker category, can we nominate anyone who assumes we’re following the same threads as them and [doesn’t provide a link](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=22067749)?

Um, pray tell, exactly, how am I chicken fucking? The _vast majority_ of his posts in that thread (the 4,000-lb car guy vs. guy with _not a stick_ thread, which, btw, was surely well-known enough to not, at all, require citing, 'aight?)\* have been contortions in avoiding painfully obvious points _repeatedly_ laid out to him, so I’d just suggest reading the last couple of pages, dreary a suggestion that might be.

\*Right - The “This Has To Stop: extreme actions at political gatherings” thread.:rolleyes:

You are not being a chicken fucker, thus my stipulation of Most Tedious in the **non-chicken-fucker category**. You are just being tedious by assuming that we all are willing to search out the threads and posts in question.

I don’t know the “4000-lb car guy vs. guy with not a stick thread,” so if you want my opinion of Magiver’s chicken-fucking prowess, then yes, I need a link. If you only wanted opinions from people intimately aware of him, then carry on, but it’s kind of a jerkish way to participate in this thread.

The point made is that you are not chicken-fucking, or at least not enough to be in that category. You are being accused of being insufficiency exciting or interesting - a categorization arguably supported with a link, but that is still a very minimal effort to support that accusation

(my bold) Or that I’m being tedious in assuming that you’d _already know_ the threads and posts in question, you mean? I figured with it being a seven-week-old thread at (currently) 13 pages that everyone’d know about it - my bad, then. And I can gladly field opinions from people who are not intimately aware of him, too.

I’ll be honest - I stopped visiting that thread within the first few pages. It was obvious that it would be a veritable banquet of chicken fucking.

I never opened it, because I assumed it would follow this trajectory:

1. A bunch of people saying idiotic stuff like “we shouldn’t kill our political enemies at a protest”
2. “Well, your side is the violent one.” “No your side is.” “No u.”  
2a-z. Here are a bunch of examples of your side being bad.
3. “Your side deserved what they got because of \_\_\_\_.” “Well your side deserved this other thing.”
4. “You’re an asshole.” “No u.”  
5-99. Repeat

I love a good trainwreck as much as anyone, so I’ll eagerly read the good parts if someone points them out. But I don’t want to wade through 650+ posts from scratch.

Hey, fair enough.  
If I could have found any germaine posts, they would have been cited were it not for the fact that M’s posts were _all more or less_ germaine, anyway, to the basic concept of chicken-fucking, which is all I was pointing out. Usually I take care to post links, but figured in this case there was just too much inanely contrarian dreck from \*\*Magiver \*\* to single out any particlar post for a link.

Not really. **Magiver** ’s contention revolved around the position that, if someone (esp. an Antifa protester, which it turned out the person was not, not even a little) is impeding your progress, you have the right to use your car to shove them out of the way, and if they strike your car with anything, you are within your rights to jump out and beat the fuck out of them. Mainly, he objected to the notion that the shoving was using a vehicle as a weapon.

Thanks eschereal, an explanation like that a few posts ago would have saved a ton of trouble.
