Scumpup...who or what is he/she?

[kambuckta]

Of late I’ve noticed some shitty turds being laid in threads by our esteemed member, Scumpup. To be honest, he/she has fallen under my radar for Posters to be Avoided for many years…has only come to my attention recently.

I searched his/her name, and found that pretty much ALL of the threads he/she have started have been benign and conversational…so what has happened?

Is he/she now just a cranky retiree who gets his/her jollies being a shithead on the boards?

Or have I just been oblivious of the nasty and cantankerous posts that he/she contributes to any (otherwise normal) thread?

Who or what is SCUMPUP??

@kambuckta

Who or what is SCUMPUP??

A puppy? A somewhat scummy puppy?

I have a vague notion of some occasional snarkiness, but without a few specifics that’s as far as I can go.

[BigT]

Been a snarky anti-liberal for a while now: seemed to get worse (to the level of annoyance) after Trump, IMO.

[ElvisL1ves]

Sometimes he posts drunk. Never a good idea, of course.

[Ukulele_Ike]

Isn’t he the guy with the motorcycle?

Or isn’t she the gal with the motorcycle?

Motorcycles are so alien to my existence that if someone mentions motorcycles, I think of them as “that motorcycle person.”

Ignore that. Pre-coffee posting.

Scumpup is a pathetic little man who gets his entertainment from taking potshots at people in the Pit. I seem to recall him talking about retirement, so maybe he just has more time right now to indulge in this toxic little habit. But he’s always been a mean-spirited asshole.

Here’s a sample of his recent jabs against a variety of other posters.

@Scumpup

Go away, pustule. I am having a little talk with someone who, odious as he is, is worth a truckload of you.

@Scumpup

Admire? Only in the sense that one could be said to admire a persistent fungal infection. It, after all, never gives up or goes away either. Tonight, when you lay your head down to sleep, think about this exchange. No doubt, you consider yourself the victor. Ask yourself why. Was it because you were smart or cool or witty? Was it because you displayed courage in the face of adversity? Or is it just because you can’t bear to add one more thing to the endless list of times you failed?

@Scumpup

Good Christ…The Rubber/Glue Gambit? You really haven’t an ounce of self-respect left, do you?

@Scumpup

No. I got that from another member who PMed me. I’m not nearly the only one here who considers you an odious, toxic tile-crawler.

@Scumpup

Wait! An absolute nonentity like you wants to shit on me for bringing nothing to the board? If nothing else, I bring strife. You, like Cuntasstasia, have nothing to offer but “Me too!” Fuck me, she is actually a couple notches above you by virtue of being a gossip and a shit-stirrer. You are nobody.

@Scumpup

Hey now! If it isn’t everybody’s favorite fake old time lefty! I’m responding to you because it seems that, if I don’t, nobody will. I consider it my act of charity for an old liar who can’t seem to write a funny one line post to save his life. If it weren’t for me, how would you know your posts even show up on the board?

@Scumpup

Maybe, just maybe, after a decade or so of watching you do your toxic yinzer cunt thing, I just don’t like you. What? You thought that being the pile-on queen and a gossip/shit-stirrer across several boards was the path to being universally beloved?

@Scumpup

Stoner POS. Your chemical dependancy does not make you a hero of the revolution.

@Scumpup

I don’t place much value on the opinion of a person who can’t face life without an intoxicant. Go smoke up. Stoners are at their best when they are high enough to finally shut the fuck up.

@Scumpup

I don’t place much stock in the opinions of a guy who hasn’t had a non-chemically altered week of his life in years. You aren’t morally wrong to be a stoner, you just aren’t someone whose opinion matters to me any more than the mutterings of the wetbrains at the halfway house down the street.

@Scumpup

Thanks for giving us the venomous yinzer toad take on this topic.

@Scumpup

I don’t really know who you are. Nor have I read the Netflix thread. I’m just stopping in to note that Dibble is a pompous, preening jackass who is entirely too sure of himself as the most moral guy in the room. He is also one of the top three shrill, annoying scolds at the SDMB. He could look like Idris Elba and I’d still consider him an asshole.

@Scumpup

Those of you coming down so hard on Mr. Dibble are, clearly, just bigoted against pompous blowhards.

[Sunny_Daze]

I knew he was an asshat with a penchant for taking potshots at posters who don’t know he exists, but that is an impressive roster of nastiness.

Maybe he’s one of those guys who got dour and whiny after they stopped working? Perhaps a hobby would help?

[Riemann]

But what about all the valuable original content that he generates?

@Scumpup

Gangbanged by which musical group?
By which of these musical groups would you prefer to be gangbanged?..

Y’all fight that hypothetical as if it were Hitler…

Au contraire. The question involves which of the listed bands the respondent would prefer to have pouring the pork to hir…

@Helena330

Unless I’m completely misunderstanding some hidden point in your OP, I doubt you’ll get many women to respond because even hypothetical gangbanging by rock stars is pretty disgusting and scary.

@Scumpup

Well, I think you owe me, and the board at large, an apology for your egregious sexism. I troubled to use the pronoun “hir.”

A demon gives you the ability to cure cancer...

@Scumpup

A demon gives you the ability to cure cancer…
or AIDS or any one disease of your choice. Of course, there is a catch. You can work your curative magic only by having unprotected anal sex with the afflicted person. How do you make use of your new ability?

No, he’s always been a nasty piece of work who specialized in snark and mean-spirited remarks. You can find posts like that going back years. I assume he is bored now, and has made this his hobby now that he has more time to indulge it.

@Sunny_Daze

I knew he was an asshat with a penchant for taking potshots at posters who don’t know he exists, but that is an impressive roster of nastiness.

And that’s just within the past few months.

[Darren_Garrison]

I assumed that he was either a pup consisting of scum or a pup that subsists on scum.

Either one works.

Based on this thread, I’m just going with his name being four-sevenths accurate.

@Riemann

One assumes that people pick their usernames in order to say something about themselves. So that a user named RagingAsshole usually turns out to be a raging asshole, and Ima Troll a troll. At least we don’t need to come up with an insulting name for him, since he’s done it himself.

[elucidator]

Hello, my name is 'luc, and I’m a Scumpup survivor. Right here on my ankle is where he savagely gummed me.

[outlierrn]

Hi 'luc.

[Ravenman]

Isn’t he the guy who sometimes implies that he’s a One Percenter, but then if someone mentions that, he gets all bent out of shape?

[elucidator]

Back in the day, Hell’s Angels didn’t read, much less type.

[Colibri]

The dickwad is at it again, without ever having had the courage to show up in this thread.

@Scumpup

What do you use to justify your hatred? From what I’ve seen of you over the years, you have plenty of it.

@Scumpup

Don’t you have family members you could be letting down?
