The word you want is troll. Please stop feeding him.

We could also use “creepy-ass sexual predator”. He thought that advertising dinner at his place on Craigslist was going to fill his 3-day weekend. _shudder_

If you must respond, please mock.

Perhaps he and **UberArchetype** will be banned as a tandem act.

Then there are his incomprehensible sports-related rants.

In his world, a bad team shouldn’t be allowed to upset a good team late in the regular season: [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=805492](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=805492)

In this thread, he said what a complete moron a sports talk show host was. This host asked if the Broncos are the biggest threat to the Patriots this season. cg16’s logic: the Broncos won the Super Bowl last year. Therefore, the Broncos are the only team that can have threats. [http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=805713](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=805713)

Paper vs. plastic is a legitimate debate … what **cg16** complained about was the fucking size of the bags … no, I didn’t understand him, no one did … I endorse this Pitting …

As a strong Democrat, I refuse to acknowledge any _red_ light – let the Republicans stop for them. And the rich highway construction lobby is obviously behind the lack of any blue lights.

And besides, it’s nit a yellow light – it’s amber.

And he also kept ignoring people’s advice to buy a large, reusable cloth grocery bag.

This is why I won’t reply to any of CG’s posts. I can’t tell if he has actual processing issues or if he’d pretending to have such issues in order to garner the responses he’s gotten thus far, not to mention this thread.

In the grocery bag thread, he threw down any suggestion of seeking alternate transportation to the grocery store. Drunky Smurf suggested a horse and carriage. His reply? “Horse and carriages haven’t been in use since the 1880’s.”

Humor impaired.

When griping about how his Craigslist date went south, somebody suggested calling an escort service. He replied that it was forbidden in the lease agreement.

Humor impaired X2.

To be fair, he’s not alone. I’ve been held up for hours on line while the person up front agonizes over the decision: Paper or plastic? Paper or plastic? 😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕😕:smack:

In other news, 53% of the SDMB can’t spot an obvious troll when it’s pissing in their faces.
