What’s sad is I saw the thread title and knew immediately to whom it referred . . . But of course we _are_ all One Mind . . .

I saw the title and thought “um, can’t be **december** , must be **scylla** ”. You can’t imagine how disappointed I was when I opened the thread. 😉

you see, you are right…

as you typed that sentence you communicated with the spirit realm. through your fingers your transmitted the energy of your thoughts to the keyboard and into your computer which then utilized the software on your machine to create the tcp/ip packets necessary to encode the information so that the receiving computer could decode it and it could appear here in this thread. you and i, we, everthing… it is energy that is all connected. concentrate on your finger tips as type and you can feel the energy being relayed to the SDMD server.

Wow, Eve! My reaction exactly!

I’m going to have to review all of Questions previous posts, I think he’s on to something big!

Mr. Randi, I predict your $1 million will shortly change hands.

Now, please excuse me, I have to catch that IPU that just whooshed over my head. 😃

I’ve encountered bonged-up/acid-laden/shroom-filled people that wax even stupider than this fellow. So don’t bet on it.

Matchka’s just glad this thread didn’t turn out to be about him. I kinda like/agree where **Question** is coming from metaphysically…but explaining it with scientific language hurts my brains.

Has anyone else noticed a recent Arch-Dipshit Migration onto the boards? Normally, SBMB accumulates a number of idiots every week, but only one or two real mouthbreathing no-sharp-objects-in-this-ward lunatics. But in December, it was as if the ratio was reversed: there were only a few run of the mill idiots and a whole tribe of utter nutballs.

Does this happen every year around this time? (I’ve noticed friend **Brutus** and others chalk it up to school vacation.) Is it coincidence? Or am I imagining the whole phenomenon?

I just kinda figured the Dipshit Migration had to do with the fact that so many people who otherwise have productive things to do… suddenly have free time in December.

And give the guy a break. Hell, I find a blast of general idiocy refreshing from time to time. It gets a bit hermetic in here, what with all the intelligence drifting around. Sometimes I need a little of what Question’s selling, just to remind me of who and what is allowed to run loose out there…

You are not imagining. I noticed it too. Strange, but I think it has to do with the beginning of winter, lack of school, and boredome.  
Toss in some immaturity, and a little free time and you get what happens here a couple of times a year. The summer`s not so bad, there`s more to do than sit at the computer. Then when these kids get out of school they have to get real jobs flipping burgers and such which leaves no time to surf.

I haven’t read **Question’s** threads but let me nominate this blithering idiot for at least compadre status:

[ummm what?](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=229904&perpage=50&pagenumber=3)

scroll down to the posts by **sadnil**

I even warned him in email, when he wrote to me to tell me to lighten up, that if he didn’t pull his head out of his rear the Dopers would make mince meat out of him.

_AWWW SHIT! I typed the whole post with my caps lock on! Maybe I should nominate myself right up there with the others for IDIOT!_

I am trying to go easy on 'em. Notice I did not call for him to be banned, dipped in hot fudge, or anything like that. Utter nutballs need a place to share their ideas too. I agree that folks like **question** are fun, in the same limited way a very rambunctious golden retriever is fun. If he starts breaking all the intellectual Hummels in Grandma Cecil’s china cabinet, however, he needs to be let outside to chase the squirrels that run around the Timecube in the backyard.

Somebody stop me before I metaphor again.

Don’t condemn him too harshly.

After all, he _did_ take a shower.
