Funny thing is as a group we have often let **Jim\_B** off with just a note. Here is a thread that is retrospect I am thinking we were too light on him. Bothering **QtM** for no good reason verges on Trolling or more likely actually passes the line. > [@Doctor's Thinking of Putting Me On Zoloft](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doctors-thinking-of-putting-me-on-zoloft/962963): > > Doctor is thinking of putting me on [Zoloft](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sertraline). As you can see, it has a myriad of side effects. But how common are they? Anyway, I’ll cut to the chase. I have three main concerns: glaucoma, sexual side effects and (moderate) alcohol intake. I asked my eye doctor about my preëxisting glaucoma. And she sees no problem. I trust her, she’s a good doctor. But she will monitor my eye pressure just in case. My plan: I will take the Zoloft for a week, and have my eye pressure checked then. If my eye pres… > [@Doctor's Thinking of Putting Me On Zoloft](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doctors-thinking-of-putting-me-on-zoloft/962963/3): > > Then I have to ask: where is @Qadgop_the_Mercotan slightly_smiling_face ? > [@Doctor's Thinking of Putting Me On Zoloft](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doctors-thinking-of-putting-me-on-zoloft/962963/5): > > Just to be clear, despite the title of my thread, I’m not asking for medical advice for myself.

EDIT: that’s of course just a joke slightly_smiling_face . Or is it… * * * * * * Another example where he got the benefit of the doubt. > [@Celebrities Who Act Gay But DEFINITELY Aren't?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/celebrities-who-act-gay-but-definitely-arent/957253): > > Because I personally don’t think that there is such a thing as gay mannerisms. But that question would be for a different section of these boards slightly_smiling_face . My question is, name a celebrity who acts gay, but who clearly isn’t. I personally am thinking mostly of males. But you can include females. I would like to start with Michael Dorn, who played the Klingon Worf on Star Trek: the Next Generation. He did do a convincing Klingon. But I have noticed that out of makeup he does act… Though this did help lead to his topic ban along with this crappy OP based on a report that didn’t even say what he said it said. > [@Diethylstilbestrol and Lesbianism?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/diethylstilbestrol-and-lesbianism/955508): > > I have to tell you, I was originally going to just post this in IMHO or MPSIMS. But upon closer reflection, I realize it might spark a debate. So I’ll err on the side of caution, and post it here. The prenatal drug diethylstilbestrol may lead to Lesbianism in women. I first read about this, I should tell you, in the Merck Manual. But they don’t publish it anymore, in paper form at least. But if you want to read more, [here](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7031187/) is one of many online articles about it. But I just have to ask, if true… Later he admits it is over 30+ years old … > [@Diethylstilbestrol and Lesbianism?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/diethylstilbestrol-and-lesbianism/955508/30): > > @peedin I am quite certain my copy says that. FWIW, my edition is a rather old one (30+ years old). slight_smile * * * * * * OPs like this smoking pile of crap really add to his Rep as a no value poster. > [@President Biden's Stroke/Aneurysm \[in 1988- edited title\]](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/president-bidens-stroke-aneurysm-in-1988-edited-title/954412): > > (I assume the fact President Biden had a stroke a while back is common knowledge. So therefore I don’t need a cite. That having been said…) Now I have to be careful how I ask this question. But is there any way Mr. Biden’s stroke could be affecting him now? Because his attention does seem to wander sometimes… I had an uncle (now deceased) who had a mild stroke a while ago. He seemed to be back to normal after it. But really can anyone make a truly full recovery after such an event? Because we… * * * * * * One thread I had to cornfield as he linked to a for profit site promoting it as a charity. Even if it was a legit charity, as I think most regulars know, posters need to ask permission of the Mods first. He got no warning for this thread but then compounded it with an ATMB thread again bringing up the For Profit corp. That finally drew warning. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/pitting-jim-b/963958)._
