Joined 2016, claims to have just started posting now but refers to never having seen the “link already posted in this thread” message before, which seems odd if they’d never posted before.

Oh well. I’m sure they’ll be fine.

Atop that post on April 10 (“Cecil’s comeback” thread):

First few words in that post:

I had… dealings with said Gaggable-git in the following thread, which DID not impress:

[https://boards.straightdope.com](https://boards.straightdope.com) /t/this-is-parody-right-meme-about-extreme-libertarianism/997554/214?u=parallellines

And chastised them for their humble-bragging about NOT reading the thread, especially when some of the “insights” they had were fucking mentioned in the OP. After which they attempted to defend themselves by saying they had a hard time communicating (sure…), and then left to say they’d work on it.

And TODAY they’re back in the same thread, quoting something I said 2 months ago, and saying why didn’t anyone consider the PROBLEMS which I had laid out in the next few paragraphs.

Yeah, they’re a fucking troll.

This avatar,

Not sure who it was, but banned as a troll as per the modloop. Sliced is a reasonable guess and I had my own.

Well at any rate at least he’s gone before he started reading the phone book out loud.

We just got trolled by the ghost of Andy Kaufman. We should be proud.

I remember him being more amusing. Hmm, maybe it’s the medium.

I remember seeing Andy Kaufman in his non-Taxi appearances, and thinking “WTF is wrong with this dude?”

His SNL appearances were overall terrible but I do recall that first Might Mouse rendition being so out of nowhere, that I found it funny.

By the wrestling stuff, I couldn’t stand him at all.

You should watch the biopic, unless you have something against Jim Carrey.

The man turned trolling into performance art.

I like Jim Carrey. Thanks for the suggestion. I’m always looking for something to watch.

_Man on theMoon_ was my first “exposure” to Kauffman. And it remained so until I saw his Mighty Mouse performance while watching a DVD of one ofSNL’s early seasons (I have seasons one thru five on DVD).

You have good taste.

I still consider those seasons the best.

BTW: Man in the Moon was produced by Danny DeVito.
