Meanwhile, **alterego** attempts suicide by mod after getting butthurt that no one laughed at his joke. [Here’s his OP](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=853263) with the “joke” in the 2nd paragraph. He complains when no one gets it in post #14, and bitches about Colibri in post #18. He then [opens](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=853415) two [Pit threads](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=853416) about it, getting a warning for the second, which triggers a [flounce in ATMB](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=853418). He’s now suspended for 24 hours. ---

Where was the joke, exactly? ---

That is completely and totally unclear. Here’s what he said was the joke: > [@](#): > > asking for a link to something that might be uncouth / illegal, for some not-very-good but purportedly other purpose, is a common meme on that thing… what’s it called again? Oh, the internet. Apparently we are all uncool old farts because we don’t get it. I’m surprised he only got a 24-hour suspension after that. ---

**CastletonSnob** just can’t let go of [hating on the South](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=20924099). Let’s see if the warning follows, since he was told not to do that. ---

**Ravid** is a stupid, ignorant, asshole. If he keeps this shit up, I’m going to give him his very own Pit thread. > [@Is Autism caused by Tylenol?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-autism-caused-by-tylenol/812932/84): > > Mostly, AFAICT, the nightmare isn’t being autistic - the nightmare is having to try to learn from those teachers or live with those parents. I have students who are autistic - some with “tantrums” and some without - and I certainly see glaring differences in parenting. Autism isn’t all that bad folks, it’s just those damn parents screwing up the works. Fuck him with a cactus sideways. ---

I personally believe that, while the condition is bad, bad parenting can make it worse for a teacher, and that’s not trollish behavior from **Ravid**. I’m giving him a pass _ **this time** _, but YMMV. ---

Don’t leave your kid alone with **Jacquernag** y.

> [@BigT](#): > > Don’t leave your kid alone with **Jacquernag** y. Not because they’ddo anything to them, but because I’m pretty sure he’d argue the guy with a gun had a good heart. I didn’t say Trump has a “good heart”. He has a “big heart” and I said he reserves it for a VERY SMALL CIRCLE of associates. That’s not being a good person, in my opinion. I don’t think he was or is a good person. There’s a difference, but it’s subtle and hard to articulate.+ ---

[Everybody welcome Mister TMI](https://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?p=20925348).

I am followed by a psychiatrist. I studied Law and at film school. I am not successful.” ---

> [@TroutMan](#): > > I hope he’s a one-and-done poster. There’s only one other trajectory he can take here. But the trajectory could be so interesting! 😃 I read that poster as either a one-and-done sad sack (as you say), or a passably clever troll, giving off “woe is me” rays and dripping with confusion and disorganization, trying to engage [del]suckers’[/del] posters’ more nurturing and helpful instincts. We know there are a lot of fish in that sea 'round here. ---
