> [@Kolga](#): > > She’s mouthing off in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=617377) about the legality of shooting stray animals. She got told by **Colibi** to back up her statements with cites, or GTFO (YAY, finally a mod lays some smackdown on her!). Naturally, she chose the GTFO option. > > Her posting style gets more hysterical whenever she can’t back her shit. Take a look at her post #37 over there. She’s all backed into a corner and she freaks out and tries to make it look like it’s everyone else’s fault for derailing the thread. She quotes the OP\* and begs everyone to get back on topic, which IMHO isn’t a terrible way to fix something that’s been derailed. I’ve done it in my own threads as well as in threads that I’ve accidentally taken off course. What’s funny though is that at the end of the post it turns out she has no interest in getting back to the OP, she’s just trying to reset the discussion to get everyone on her side. She was losing the argument when it was proven that it actually was legal to shoot certain dogs in certain circumstances. So let’s just get back to talking about it being wrong and unnecessary. She reminds me of another poster. \*Did no one notice she edited the quote…and what the hell is going on with her goofy quotes, she seems to be having a problem or rather, why does everything start out with ‘originally posted by Susanann’ ---

I find myself curious about this person. Everything I have read makes me wonder about her sanity, yet there is just enough knowledge about some subjects to make me wonder. Is she self-educated? Or tried to get an education but couldn’t finish? “A little knowledge is a dangerous thing”. ---

What is so difficult about this? But the rock-solid confidence that she is always right, coupled with friendly, unsolicited, incorrect advice and junior modding, just make for a cornucopia of stupid. I rather hope she doesn’t appear in this thread–it’s not like she’d correctly understand what we’re talking about anyway. ---

I wandered into the JonBenet Ramsey thread and saw her at work. Amazing.

> [@Pixiesnix](#): > > I dunno, I always had a [different mental image](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peggy_Hill) of **Susanann** I’m only half way through this thread, but have to pause and laugh because of this tidbit from the Wiki article: “This article has multiple issues.” Kind of lends itself to the OP. Substitute ‘article’ with ‘ **Susanann** ’. ---

> [@Guinastasia](#): > > [You don’t need to teach about WWII or Vietnam in school](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=580559). Man, what a stupid argument. “You don’t need to teach history in school because you can just read a book from the library and listen to grampa’s war stories” - right, because the anecdotes that gramps tells you are totally accurate and not bias at all! Can you imagine the skewed version of history she passes on to her own kids? Also, what in the hell is wrong with kids learning about WWII or Vietnam in American History class? Isn’t that pretty much the kind of thing you talk about in a class like that? I do like this quote from that thread: > [@Why teach WWII and Vietnam in History Classes?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/why-teach-wwii-and-vietnam-in-history-classes/555937/67): > > The average person in the United States back in the 1950’s, 1960’s, and 1970’s didnt give 10 seconds thought to the war effort in Vietnam and most of them could not even find it on a world map. I wasn’t alive in the 50s-70s, and I’m not even American, and even _I_ know that’s total bullshit. ---

Well, she’s 1/3rd right - Most Americans really didn’t give 10 seconds thought to the American war effort in Vietnam during the 1950s. 😉 ---

up until this thread, I never heard of her. Her username rang no bells, and yet, there seems to be so much out there that would catch my attention if I read it. Clearly, I’m not paying attention to threads that I read. 🆒 There is another thing to consider. She’s been here for about 9 years and has less than 3000 posts. So, she’s not what I’d consider a “noise” poster. But she does seem to post very memorable quotes. Could it be that she truly is just “whooshing” everyone on the board? I think it’s an idea worth consideration. If you want to waste time considering it, that is. ---

There is that - I can see **Susanann** as somebodies comedy act. There are a couple of other posters on this board who take positions so comedic I wonder if they’re putting us on as well. ---

> [@JohnT](#): > > There is that - I can see **Susanann** as somebodies comedy act. There are a couple of other posters on this board who take positions so comedic I wonder if they’re putting us on as well. I sometimes wonder this as well, as I wonder what she could be getting out of this message board. She has very different viewpoints from most posters here (to put it lightly); she likes to make outrageous posts but can’t be bothered to back them up or return to defend them, even with the sketchiest of cites, like most of those drive-by lunatics we get. She doesn’t really grab onto a topic and cling to it like a rabid terrier; she seems to forget and wander off from topics she’s shown great interest in for a few posts, never to return. I’d see her as a happy member of some conspiracy theory website or Second Amendment fanclub, sure, but I just don’t know what she sees in us. ---

I don’t know, but there seem to be plenty of examples of other people (at least I assume they are people) who are here only to post outrage over one thing or another they’ve read here, or to remind everyone just how substandard they believe the board membership to be. I guess some folks can find a certain satisfaction in that. I tend to think she’s legit, just somewhat addled. ---
