Is **Dirtymartini** trolling in the pronunciation thread in IMHO? Just stupid? Who knows? I’m going with trolling. ETA: Definitely trolling. I’m no longer going to dance, monkey, dance in that thread for sure. ---

The thread in question is, by itself, not conclusive evidence of trolling, in my opinion. But looking at other threads this poster has started, there does seem to be a pattern of challenging the generally long-accepted wisdom on various topics, possibly for shits and giggles. ---

There’s the Nazi “nuke” thread that ended up being controversial (and prompted an ATMB thread of its own), there are the controversial replies in this thread: (space inserted to break link): [https://boards](https://boards) .straightdope.com/t/worst-mistake-your-parents-made/1018965/90 Account less than a month old. I suspect a bored trock honestly. ---

No, I’m saying he’s trolling in that specific thread. OP: What’s the right way to pronounce this? Helpful poster: There’s not really right or wrong. OP: So, you’re saying I’m wrong? Why do you disagree with me, etc. Happily, I must have missed all his other stupid threads. ETA: @wolfpup, just give up in that thread. Stop feeding him. ---

> [@RitterSport](#): > > ETA: @wolfpup, just give up in that thread. Stop feeding him. Yes, I’m done with him. Probably just wants to start a fight and blow up the thread, or is just an ignoramus. Most likely both, actually. ---

He is just pushing for someone to step on his toes. It seems to me. ---

Now, he’s calling out @wolfpup, one of the most helpful posters in that thread, in the Pit. He called you a POS, then started arguing moderation in the Pit. With any luck, he’ll flame out shortly. ---

The new trock wants the thread moved to the Pit. Seems very, very familiar with how things work around here for someone who just joined a couple of weeks ago. ---

He started a thread about it in ATMB… with swearing in it. ---

He seems … disturbed. In the sense of needing counseling. For the sake of public safety. ---

Perhaps he is the smarter-seeming evil twin (IOW other sock of the pair) of **MW\_Degen\_Gambler**? Somehow my gut just came up with that idea. I’m sensing some kinship, but I can’t begin to say why I think that. Anyone else see that or think it’s bonkers? ---

I don’t get the impression that MWDG is trying to start anything. They just seem legitimately screwy. Which has been a big problem now and then (especially when they post something really inappropriate), but I don’t see a lot of confrontation there. The filthy drink on the other hand seems like they are almost exclusively posting in ways to get a rise out of people. And I’ve never seen MWDG escalate things to this degree. I just don’t see that much in common between them. I do really think the nasty booze is a sock of _someone_ though. ---
