You really think the posts of **dogslicktheirpeepeesforpleasure** and **[n-words]mustburn** (I am not making these names up) belong anywhere on this board? How about someone who said they were a necrophiliac cannibal, or the guy who wanted advice on how to cut his penis off?

Honestly, you don’t want to see the totally fucked up shit some trolls post.

The dogs guy might have some good points, though.

My wife, who hangs out elsewhere on the internet: “Oh, you had one of those guys too?”

There’s an old joke about this… and I was reflecting that the puncline BecauseTheyCan would have been a less in-your-face username. I just googled it, and there’s already a band with that name…

For someone with an undeserved reputation for being intelligent, Sam Stone is acting like a total doofus in the mail in voting thread, saying that mail in voting guarantees that the result will not be accepted.

I still think Tachy Goes to Coventry is the best option for certain cases.

Yeah, he’s getting dumber and dumber as he’s forced to defend stupider and stupider Trump policies. Why a Canadian would be all in for Trump is beyond me.

Does he know that several states are already all mail in voting, an their results are accepted? Does he know that lots and lots of people in the military mail in their votes?

So, that **Pheonix1** person was CarnalK again, I guess? Man, that guy just _loves_ this place.

Nope. I was thinking more along the lines of the trolls we had just been discussing, who come back repeatedly. It’s immediately obvious they’re from New Jersey, to pick one, but they just can’t stay away.

I’m sure they’d immediately sock up anyway, so never mind,

It would at least be a break from the nonstop trump chumps. I mean, it gets sort of boring when all the arguments and pit threads are about politics.

Evidently the world needs to know that CarnalK disagrees with everyone about everything. And even if his sock accounts last only three days, that’s three more days where Dopers were informed that they were stupid and wrong.

I’ve never had socks I liked well enough to mourn their loss. They keep my feet warm and that’s what I want.

What about if they’re from a hateful and completely racist organization and region?

( Just for example, Syracuse University and their Racist Orangemen ? Or the Provos of Northern Ireland…?)

New user **transcriber** joins a COVID thread and behaves exactly like **CarnalK**.

Report… banned.

If he just wouldn’t act like a dick he might last a while, but he can’t fucking help himself.

It’s true and if you call him on it, he will argue endlessly about why his insensitivity or ignorance are in fact the right position to take.

Beginning to look like that Monty Python sketch where all of the inspectors keep piling up dead at the foot of the couch…
