Coberst is not a troll. He is, however, 15 years old. No one constantly makes references to his “extensive life experiences” without ever leaving the slightest bit of information about them without begging the question. I also don’t know many people that age who give a flip about Noam Chomsky or read much Karl Popper.
There. I said it.
What the flying fuck are you talking about? Answer or I shall commence the felching.

This is the single most chilling threat I’ve ever read on the SDMB. :eek:
Promises Promises. 
Why on earth would you want to orally withdrawl semen from his lower digestive track after having anal sex? That’s ooky.
Try this thread for instance - or look at some of the many others he’s started.
I’ve actually tried reasoning with the idiot, but have gotten no where. His “life experience” seems to have consisted of reading and misunderstanding one book. I don’t think he is 15, since 15-year-olds usually have better things to do with their time. I think he is an ignorant buffoon who had decided to illuminate us youngun’s (anyone under 70, it seems) with the brilliance of his insights, but who realizes somewhere in the depths of his shriveled brain that actually debating or responding to comments would prove the vacuity of his so-called thoughts.
I believe I might change my living will to state that if my wife finds me making posts like this she should insert a plug and then pull it.
Thank you bandit for giving me the opportunity to describe this witling where I can tell the full story.
I got a kick out of that. A pseudointellectual using “My post is my cite”…and being serious about it!
ETA… I put him at about 19
I can see why it’s a mild pit. It’s damn near impossible to even get him to respond to another poster much less really say anything.
I don’t think an accurate estimate of his age can be made until it’s determined whether or not his posts are composed under the influence of the mary-joo-wanna.
For the record, much of his pseudo-profound babbling reminds me a lot of my own musings from when I used to toke up and fill notebooks with scribbled speculation. At least I was smart enough not to try to share it with anybody…
I want to produce some coberst magnet poetry.

Just arrange them in any order to create your own coberst post. (Which is also your cite!)
Couldn’t you have said it in the other thread pitting him?
Who are you responding to? :eek:
You do know what “felching” is, don’t you?
You forgot POPPER!
Back in my usenet days, certain posters would be accused of being bots - someone’s AI project unleashed on the net in kind of a Turing Test. I think coberst would have been accused of botdom right away. Write only posting, with responses slightly less intelligent than those of the old Eliza program, were things that inspired this kind of accusation.
We might have if the thread title had mentioned his name.
Does it involve kitchen utensils? yes, I do.
I can’t really work oup a good hating for coberst, as he’s sort of like a punching bag. I can’t hate a man with nothing inside him. But seriously, couldn’t he actually use his brain for once? He’s an empty sack of stuffing, and that bothers me.
he can’t even respond

Thank you nonymouse. Been a long time since I heard that. 
Just pointing out more evidence for the age 15-19 range: the handle coberst is almost certainly taken from the name of the emo-music-darling Conor Oberst, aka “Bright Eyes”. 
It gets to where he sounds like he’s reading random Fortune Cookie messages to people.
