Take a sock. Sew two buttons on for eyes. Place your hand inside and form a “mouth” between your thumb and the other fingers. Join a conversation. Any time someone contradicts you, have the puppet tell them how they are wrong and how you are really wise and brilliant.  
A person who creates an imaginary poster through whom s/he can voice support for his or her own positions, while pretending that the “supporting” person is actually a third party, is said to have created a sock puppet and the artificial poster is the sock (puppet).  
(Are those your real eyes?)😉

Hmm, I got “uekte” meaning “illegitimate” or “out of wedlock” from this link:

[http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Estates/5536/eidhalist.html#U](http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Estates/5536/eidhalist.html#U)

Perhaps it really was a false identity all along. Or he meant to call himself a bastard in the literal sense. Just speculation at this point.

With all the Pit and GD fights lately, I think it’s safe to say that the SDMB is all the way back to the way things were before the Great Hack.

Good going you guys, I knew I could count on you.

Actually, I’ve been holding my breath for Uek to post a link to some random webpage and declare “SCORE!”

I really hope that’s 650G-1. (Or rather, I really **hope** its 1-650G but I think 650G-1 is more accurate.)

Or do I not understand odds again?

You’re all still here? Holy shit, I can’t believe thast pile-on I predicted would come true. Sooooo funny. I’d just like to say that **Dooku** , **Squish** , **Louis B.** , **Reeder** , and all y’all other jerkoffs that decided to fuck with me - I hope to God that I never find you pinheads, b/c if I ever meet, you, I guarantee that I will kick the fucking shit out of you all. That’s not a warning - that’s a PROMISE. I’ll be watching - if I see a Dallas Dope fest, I’ll be there, and I will beat you to within an inch of your lives, absofuckinglutely count on it. Are you too scared to bring it on ? Send me mail - let’s meet. I can’t fucking wait. Y’asll think you can insult me like that and get away with it? Think again. I’ll be watching, and if I were you I’d refrain from posting alot of personal information that I can find.

SDMB = Sycophants, Dumbbitches, Monkeyfuckers, Bungholes.

Mods, can I get an extra special Suck My Dick for you?? Oops!! Is that against the special Uekte rules? Fuck you, sycophant leaders. That’s right - fuck you arrogant suckholes. Oh, shit!! I just maybe got banned! SHOCKING!!! Here’s a promise to you all: I will return. Oh yes, I will. In fact, I already have another ID. What is it? When you least expect it, expect it.

One last thing: I will spend my every waking breath campaining for the elimination of all old people from sharing the same rights as the rest of us. Old people must be separated from society. I will succeed, and I’m not alone. Food for thought, douchebags!

Not really, if you post physical threats to other board members.

Don’t even bother playing the hide-and-seek game with new ID’s, **Uekte**. We play that game all day long around here, and are quite good at it. It’s not like you’d be hard to spot.

This thread is closed, and you’re out of here.
