Omnibus Trolls R Us Thread

Why isn’t sexual predator (or, at least, wannabe) in that list? The only people I ever hear complaining about age of consent are kids and people who wish they could date them.

When a kindergarten teacher and their student love each other very much . . .

Does that mean he’s a shit sandwich?

Just the spread. Like Nutella, only smells worse.

There’s the old saying “Life is like a shit sandwich; the more bread you have the less shit you eat.”

We know jturd is flat broke. He’s quite proud of that. If more bread => less shit, than no bread => all shit.

I enjoy a good eccentric as much as the next guy. But recently his eccentricity is pretty darn hostile.

True. When he first moved, his posts were mostly positive, interspersed with weird (can you share underwear when you travel). Now they’re back to anti-social nastiness. I’m wondering if his relocation didn’t work out. If that’s true, I feel for him, but stop being an asshole!

To give a devil his due, Fotheringay-Phipps has produced a pretty thoughtful and well-reasoned thread right here: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=844665. That it’s about partisan politics is doubly impressive.

Mods do not really monitor the forums, per se. They respond when posters click that little report icon and levy a complaint. If someone violates the rules and no one reports it, chances are there will be no mod action, possibly even if a mod stumbles on the offending post (unless it deeply offends the mod). Similarly, each PM also has the report icon, so you can complain about bad PM behavior and have a mod address it.

If I’m casually reading the forums and I see something that’s a clear violation of rules, it’s getting modded whether someone reported it or not. But we don’t /cannot read every post in every thread. The only way to guarantee that something comes to the attention of a mod is to report it.

ETA: To clarify: if it’s in a forum I don’t Mod, I’ll report it. Whether it gets modded is at the discretion of the moderators of that forum.

Wait. . . you don’t?? :mad: I thought that’s why they got you the coffee mugs, t-shirts, boxers, and toothpicks. Caffiene to operate 24/7, t-shirts and boxers so you don’t have to waste time with laundry, and toothpicks to prop your eyelids open.

Are you telling me my hard earned Charter Membership fees are going to time off? Well, I’ll have none of that. Especially that “sleep” shit. That’s wasted time that I’m not going to pay for.

We need a “::harumph::” tag.

This guy could be a weird “one and done” or may stick around for more lies.

That was funny as hell. I half think he’s just foolin’.

OTOH, his "Trump didn’t mean ‘sex’ when he said she would ‘do anything’ " thread has him carrying so much water for the DJT that I fear for the health and safety of his back.

Yeah. You’ll get no debate from me on that; I agree he’s shilling for Il Douche like a madman. As I said, “a devil”.

But once in awhile there’s a glimmer that he’s not 100% just reading some script from the Russians / Faux. Which opens the possibility he *might *learn something if he spends enough time with *both *ears out of that echo chamber.

Half think? He had me at line 1. :stuck_out_tongue:

Okay, in that thread is it just me or did F-P himself drop a big sexist deuce in the OP? Everyone’s talking about Trump; no one’s talking about the “women politicians just claim sexism because they can’t handle any criticism” thing. Am I off-base on this?

Well, lessee here. This appears to be a man who knows no fear, who knows how to live life to the fullest, a man whose heroic exploits make him irresistibly attractive to women. A man who fears not the mocking of the unworthy rabble, for he knows that all he writes is true. I would also venture to guess that it’s a man with the same posting IP as Shagnasty.

Wow, I’d guessed Shagnutzy before I was half way though with that paragraph. I am so good!

F-P is an disingenuous argumentative prick. He’s never lost an argument in his life because even when he’s wrong, the fucking child declares unilateral victory and takes his bat and ball home.

Not quite sure why I even engage with him. I know it’ll be pointless but sometimes I just can’t resist letting the smug pedantic bastard have the satisfaction of thinking he’s half the clever dick he believes himself to be.

I’d pit him but I’d run out of cusses before I fully expressed how much I loath that burlap sack of assholes.

You left out “A man who turned up his nose at boinking Sela Ward.” :slight_smile:
