The oddest posters

@Colibri

Mercotans don’t have fingers, so they don’t use base 10.

Zymolosely polydactyl tongues should perform better than that on keyboards.

:smack:

@TriPolar

I’d hope to make the list just on general principles.

I think there’s probably a bunch of us who feel that way.

@Colibri

Some of the most bizarre arguments I ever had were**** with griffon502, an anti-marsupial bigot. He was always posting how inferior marsupials were to placentals, and would get outraged when I posted evidence to the contrary.

Oh, won’t someone think of the monotremes!

@iiandyiiii

I thought you were shooting for 666… I don’t know the significance of 672.

EDIT: Whoosh?

@Happy_Lendervedder

This is why we can’t have funny things around here.

There was that guy with his obsessive pet theory about the Egyptians using geysers to build pyramids. That was certainly odd.

Ooh fun! They use…let’s see… base 10.44!

What, like use the geyser to shoot the capstone into the air and hurriedly build the rest of the structure under it?

Let’s see what happens after he posts 606 more times.

For it is a human number

Its number is six hundred and…seventy two…"

The guy who started a union for homeless people. Apparently the had dues and meetings and stuff. One alchoholic was drinking the hand sanitizer He started a pretty out there thread about monkeys being used as prostitutes.

I still feel a bit bad about him because I made a joke that he overreacted to that got him ban hammered. AND I am pretty sure he tracked my ass down and made a bizarre phone call/ threat… but only once so there was that.

Man, compared to this guy most of us don’t stand a chance of being mentioned.

I love that kind of oddity though. It’s a nice change-up from the typical trolls and bigots.

@Arrogance_Ex_Machina

But he had cites! Ergo he must’ve been right.

His post was his cite?

I believe the error is due to the Gregorian calendar.
WTH is a “Mercotan”? All I get when I Google is some dummy on message boards.

[billfish678]

What about that guy that had a username that sounded like a oriental fighting master…masterkay? masterfung? or something like that?

That guy could tell some wild assed stories.

Master Wang-Ka.

Which I just realized is probably a play on ‘‘wanker.’’

I hope he got paid eventually for his writing. He was a very skilled story teller.

Pretty much.

Actually, what was impressive was the length he went on about it.

Heh, just the search terms necessary to find the thread.

Ah, the man with the “moncubines”. I remember him.

But placentals are obviously more highly evolved than marsupials! Or, as scientists say: Higher up on the evolutionary ladder.

@Kimball Kinneson

Its terrible xmex-like snout locked on. Its zymolosely polydactile tongue crunched out, crashed down, rasped across. Slurp! Slurp! … Fools! Did they think that the airlessness of absolute space, the heatlessness of absolute zero, the yieldlessness of absolute neutronium could stop QADGOP THE MERCOTAN?”
