Heh, that’s right. Maybe he’s all about intensifying the contradictions of capitalism.

Hey, we were just trying to entertain ourselves waiting for the next troll.

Didn’t take long.

Hey; speaking of weasels, has **JBGUSA** been noted in this thread yet? In [his latest thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=20246062#post20246062), which seems to be part of a long-running project to write letters to people and then instead post them on the internet, we had a bunch of people provide links to other posts of his where he contradicts himself quite a bit about his political affiliation and plays fast-and-loose with facts.

I had not previously noted **JGBUSA**. Good call.

I’d like to add **Polar Iceman** to the list. Can’t think of what he’s doing other than trolling at the moment.

Also, **Astorian** , for his “last straw” denunciation of the lies libruls tell about violence against Muslims immediately after the attack in Portland.

I think his beliefs are sincerely held, and also stupid.

On the flip side, I’m proud of 99% of the other posters in that thread.

Sorry, one more medicine post. Add me to the ranks of those here with insomnia. Right now I’m in the middle of writing pages and pages because it’s the end of the quarter. and I have a crap-ton of papers due. My already not-great sleep patterns are even worse because I lie in bed worrying about it all. But when I give up and try to go back to work, my mind is blank. I have zero brain power.

In desperation, I ordered the liquid melatonin **Chimera** posted above with one-day delivery arriving yesterday. It calmed my racing mind, I got about six hours of sleep, and wrote three pages this morning. Only about fifteen to go!

So a huge THANK YOU to **Chimera**.

Back to bitching about trolls. :o

Note Post 56, where **Colibri** tells him it would be considered trolling if **Colibri** had not moved it to the Pit.

Well, shit. Now I have to try it. I’m also a writer and one of the shittiest drawbacks of sleep deprivation is it’s difficult to get the creative thing going. I am literally driving to my local health foods store right now to see if I can find some.

And I hope you all catch that ‘sublingual’ means hold it under your tongue for as long as you can before swallowing it.

I thought it meant we had to speak in a language we don’t understand while we take it. Thanks for the tip.

I picked some up at Walgreens. It doesn’t explicitly say to put it under your tongue, but it’s liquid, so I presume it will work if I do so…?

Just a thought I had on the way over there: this thread is the MPSIMS of the maladjusted.

Does it say ‘sublingual’? What is the brand?
