Omnibus Trolls R Us Thread

That was kind of what I was getting at.

Ah, ok, I misunderstood, thought you were implying something much worse.

If anything else pops out on them, could you list it here or (by preference) PM Colibri? Per his request last time our “friend” showed up.

since I signed up in 2002 and never came back I had to get a new password to rejoin. thanx.

Post #34 there has a rather stilted use of the English language (e.g.: “I apologies”). :slight_smile:

They just seem to be typos, like “… went to Purdue when Newsweek magazine called it a hotbed of rest …” – which is suspicious: where is fschwartz’s autocorrect??

No, really, they did.

In an unsuprising development, a forum racist doesn’t like black people winning Hugos.

I love it! “I didn’t actually read the book but judging from this tiny excerpt I feel safe calling this an affirmative action Hugo.”

What an asshole. I’d put more energy into that, but maybe someone will start a thread.

“forum racist” is the new “Florida man”!

I’d rather they not. He doesn’t really need any more encouragement. We already have a thread in the Pit that he’s hijacked to the point that it’s all about him and his “theories” now.

Posting to turn off email notifications.

Kee-rist. This shit?

Again?

He also has a second thread on how much he hated college.

Shut up Lutz! is pushing hard for an early removal. His oeuvre so far:

-Why does everyone hate Albert Goldman? - a test thread maybe? It looks legitimate
-Was Helen Keller a virgin - Weirder, but sure, it fits in our wheelhouse.
-How did Al Sharpton become the spokesman for the Negro - The Negro? please. Everyone knows they have a vote. :dubious:
-UK kills all babies with Down syndrome I totally and completely believe he is a serious poster. Totally.

The ‘chick’ digression in that one is what convinced me he’s a troll and not just a dumbass. Even if he’d just stuck to one post of defending it, but two replies to the same post, on a particular misbehaviour that’s getting pit-attention right now? Yeah, trolly.

He only has two topics: (1) he hated college, and (2) life sucks. All his threads are variations on these life themes. There are also subthemes (1b) he hates the military, too, and (2b) the military sucks.

This latest variation also invites special commentary:

“Now, if I had went into a skilled trade, it would have most likely put me in a far better position in life.”

Yabbut if he had went into a skilled trade, he woodent bee able to write so good like he can does do so now.

“Carpentry, metalworking, electrical, masonry … these occupations can never be replaced with machines and will always be needed”

I look forward to Marcus Flavius taking up the trade of carpentry, only to be displaced by a robotic carpenter, then becoming a metalworker made redundant by a metalworking robot. Moving on to becoming a qualified electrical worker, he is fired the next day by a talking robot which is also a pole-climbing robotic lineman. Finally getting a secure job in the masonry trade, he is sacked when the company brings on a fleet of bricklaying robots that can work five times faster than any human. In a final ignominy, one of the robots throws a brick at him on his way out.

I expect a forthcoming variation on theme #2: (2c - the trades suck).

I completely agree – he’s just doing things to push buttons. Between that, and the fact that a lot of his posts engage in name-calling and general asshole-ish behavior, I’m pretty sure that he’s just trying to get a rise out of people.

Edited to add: in his Sharpton thread, he flat-out admitted that he was trolling, and that he planned to continue to troll Sunny Daze, in particular. Thus, he got his ass banned.

I suppose “hookers cost too much” falls under (2.)
