Me too! I feel like I missed a party.

The Interweb is overstuffed with weird-sounding trolls, so having a lower percentage of "w-st"s in our small corner doesn’t bother me at all.

You didn’t miss much, just a random mansplaining troll saying (at excruciating length) that women aren’t and can’t be turned on by a man they don’t know. Apparently we don’t lust like men do … 🙄

On the other hand he did me a favor because I was reminded of the time I drove 20 min past my own exit to keep behind a guy on a motorcycle. He had a full face helmet on but only a T-shirt and jeans, and because he was on a cafe-style bike his shirt was flying up his back. He was compact and lean, and had THE most beautiful back muscling … That’s all I could really see, but it was enough for an enjoyable scenic drive 😛

So you are proving that women can be turned on by men they don’t know by confessing to being a stalker…?

A _sex-crazed_ stalker, actually…

Nah, not active stalkerism.  
Where I lived at the time was very rural, and the highway intersections were far apart and occasionally no on ramp just off. I missed my exit and had to go a long way to get back on track. As we were going the same direction on the highway and at the same speed I inadvertently had more time to admire the bike rider than I should have. I got to my turn-back exit and got off, he kept on to wherever he needed to be.

A nice interlude. No stalking, no stress, no drool, just admiration for a well tuned physique.

Chris Hemsworth must know a **lot** of women then.

Yeah, he apparently knows my wife, my best friend, and a number of other female friends of mine. (They all seem to know Hugh Jackman, too!)

Wooah - two suspensions in a short amount of time (D’Anconia, AK84). Mods starting New Year off with a bang. One of those is definitely a troll and I hope it becomes permanent.

The other’s just an abrasive asshole who likes to get personal, but functionally, I guess there’s not much of a difference. He does sometimes post stuff of value though, does D’Anconia _ever_?

Does generating recreational outrage count?

How did I miss the announcement of AK84’s suspension?

It was just in the thread, no ATMB posting like for D’A, although AK’s dedicated Pit thread was [bumped](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/pitting-ak84/972007/40).

You didn’t miss much. Basically he dropped a banal but pointless insult into a Factual Questions thread, but he had a long list of previous infractions that collectively pushed him over the line.

AK’s suspension is still being discussed in the modloop.

That is why no announcement as of yet.

You heard it here first (well maybe) but the former poster known as AK84 has been banned, and per ECG’s notice, was a long time coming.

I already updated their personal pit thread, but for anyone who missed the Ban notice above, I felt it was worth a mention since What\_Exit left some of us hoping with crossed fingers…
