Hopefully, Suicide will suicide by mod. [Convince me the twerp’s not a troll.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17521833&postcount=86)

[Looks like even one of the mods is leaning towards Suicide being a troll](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=17522067&postcount=91).

Perhaps the mods will pull some teeth, without using Novocain?

Being asked if you’re a communist? That’s nothing. So far this week, I’ve been asked if I’m black and if I’m Christian.

Apparently I just don’t get what side I’m supposed to be on.

Nobody ever asks me if I’m a Communist, Black, or Christian. ☹

I must be doing something wrong. Maybe Comrade Monty can give me some pointers.

At least you get asked. Plenty of people seem to be fond of telling me that I’m not Christian.

To be fair, unless you are a Seventh Day Episcopalian Orthodox Reform, you’re not a Christian.
