Nah, nevermind, i didn’t mean it as criticism, I just wanted to be a smartass in the Pit. The picture is just alright. 👍 😁 ---

> [@EinsteinsHund](#): > > (now I wonder what’s cooler, a cat that can handle a lightsaber or a pencil?) I have a cat who handles pencils all the time. Granted, he handles them down onto the floor, and has shown no signs I’ve seen of using them to write with. But he definitely handles them. (It was a different cat who typed the 36. I’ve seen him handle a pencil too, but it’s less common.) ---

> [@EinsteinsHund](#): > > That looks more like a pencil than a lightsaber. The light saber had to be small to fit into the picture and because, like, it’s a kittie that can’t hold large objects. Anyway, this is not the place for art criticism, that’s down the hall, right next to the Argument Clinic. 😉 ---

And we’ve a new one, Kash4u (sounds like a spammer). Jerk seems to think all Palestinians are terrorits and suggests “shipping [them] to Iran”. Wow. ---

I’m not sure if this is a troll or not. Sounds very much like the kind of stupid shit you’d hear in a bar when someone opines about a complicated subject with a simplistic, wrong and unworkable “solution” that they think they’ve brilliantly come up with. So perhaps not a troll, just Dunning-Kruger. Perhaps. ---

As you say, that name alone isn’t just pinging Troll-dar, it’s grabbing by both hands and shaking it in the air. ---

It’s the content of the two posts that sway me to my opinion that they’re trolling. ---

> [@EinsteinsHund](#): > > (now I wonder what’s cooler, a cat that can handle a lightsaber or a pencil?) I used to have a polydactyl cat who would hold a pencil “properly,” like he was going to write with it. Never did, but it was very cute. (No pics, sorry, that cat died more than 20 years ago.) ---

It’s the content of the _three_ posts now; the last one he just flat out lied about my post. He’s either a troll or a complete imbecile. (I know; both is not out of the question.) ---

I’m just going to go ahead and peg **Persimmon** as a sock, based on posting history. 4 topics viewed, 3 topics created, zero posts created, and 11 minutes of read time over the last year. Right now it’s in the maintenance phase: building up a history consisting of low-effort threads that will lend it an air of legitimacy when it finally gets taken out of the drawer to do whatever trollish nonsense the account-holder has in mind. ---
