Life support always runs with battery back-up, making Morgenstern’s threat rather hollow. “Pulling the plug” actually requires shutting down the various support devices.

It’s the thought that counts.
That’s a damn shame. It’s one of the more original & funny insults I’ve read in a while.
Okrahoma is going to stroke out, he’s so excited about the Comey testimony. It proves Trump was RIGHT ALL ALONG. Look for him in any Trump thread, spewing.
He’s another in the handful of Trumpanzees we have here.
No, you just have a bizarrely inflated sense of your importance (and evidently a strange social life if you consider being insulted stalking). I insult any of you fucking idiot dweebs who post in the Pit. You happen to be exceptionally thin skinned however, coming into the Pit and then pissing and moaning about people insulting you. Go away, you fucking snowflake.
Thin skinned? Nah. I just don’t like creepy old people stalking me. I don’t want to be gummed.
With regards to the insults if they are accurate or at least clever, which admittedly Morgenstern’s was, I can appreciate them. You, however, I haven’t even interacted with that I can recall in any debate and are just being an ornery, condescending, douche who has no idea what he’s talking about. And you are being a rude potty mouth not out of any sense of being wronged but merely because you can. Following a poster around and constantly posting stupid insults over and over in my perspective is internet stalking and jerkish. Sad!
Furthermore, I do not appreciate your cultural appropriation of the word snowflake.
And if anyone is an authority on being a “special snowflake”, it’s you, right?
Found an interesting one here. Sleep trouble, anxiety, compulsive behavior. Or maybe a slow-rolling troll. And the posting style seems familiar, although I can’t place it. And I could be wrong. But something about it gives off the whiff of under-bridge.
I now have him classified as “troll”. He’s one of the more literate ones (not by much, but still) but I bestow the Official Troll Award after several sightings of classic troll behavior: when presented with facts that totally refute his argument, the Okra just ignores them and carries on fighting against easier arguments. An actual non-troll human or even a more sophisticated style of troll might actually acknowledge the facts and even modify his argument, and an honest poster certainly would. The Okra clearly has no interest whatsoever in discussion.
Eat shit, asshole. 
Well one of the problems I’ve noted in discussing things with certain people on the right is that they have ideas that they’re absolutely convinced of that no amount of logic or real world evidence will change. The the Magical Thinking of the Free Market. Or the idea that we liberals think in a certain way or have certain (alway evil) intentions and motivations. Or that tax cuts ALWAYS produce more revenue.

I didn’t get it at first either, but then I remembered, you’re an octopus.
Unfortunately, that’s also a strategy used by some to maintain their beliefs in the face of legitimate questions. Just don’t acknowledge they exist.
I lean towards thinking Okra is the real deal. Though his style does mean I have him on ignore. I know I’m not going to miss any decent arguments, and can always read the quotes from people who reply to him if I want to see the bad ones.
I’m with wolfpup. I think Okra’s a troll. Repeat the same thing over and over, in multiple threads. Ignore any argument or discussion. Refuse to discuss anything else. Troll.
Look, only we can call each other “snowflakes”…
Okay, I just have to know to whom the term “snowflake” supposedly belongs culturally. Eskimos?
I belong to an etiquette message board where “special snowflake” has been used for at least ten years. I assumed the term originated on that board. Recently I’ve started seeing it all over the place.
Yeah, but don’t they have something like 100 words for snow? We should be able to borrow just one-- even if it’s a very special one.
I’ve seen it used by snowmen – not just Snow White ones – all over the snow globe.
As Gregg Allman once said while lying on his back, waving his arms and legs:
“I’m s’no angel…”
Chuck Palahniuk’s Fight Club novel:
"You are not special. You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.”
