I agree entirely. I considered saying this in my post.

Agreed, it is the pit and amply monitored.

Or, at least, it is a long-time account.

No, I reviewed the account, unless you’re saying his account was hijacked, he is a long-time poster in good standing.

Or, the account could have been inherited. Point is, we have no idea who is operating the account, and whether it’s the same person as before.\*

“On the internet, no one knows you’re a dog.”

\* Not that a personality change, sudden or otherwise, is impossible. I’m merely mentioning it for completeness’s sake.

That’s an interesting thought given his that his last 112 posts are just on one subject. But then I remembered him posting in pretty much the same style in the _United healthcare CEO assassinated, the P&E edition_ thread.

Good one.

I picture him more like **Pedro Picapiedra**.

That is the name Fred Flintstone got in Spanish speaking countries.

Yes. But others simply _cannot_ ignore him.

I was puzzled that he didn’t get a warning for the hijack.

Which hijack? It is very hard to get a warning for a hijack in the Pit. You might get a mod that is following a thread bitching loudly about it without it being official\*. But **Miller** generally doesn’t hand out warnings for hijacks.

Some Mods have with **Miller’s** permission split hijacks off of pit threads into their own threads.

\* I just did this today in a different thread, not Pedro related.

A great many of Pedro’s posts going all the way back to when he joined have been similar in style.

Real sorry that I ruined the thread about the Charlie Kirk assassination by expressing appreciation for Charlie Kirk. Maybe you didn’t realize this was a polarizing topic outside of this bubble and you should expect pushback for your reprehensible views. Consider that part of your education too.

@needscoffee I’m going to need you to cry harder.

Never read a peep from @Pedro before, just heard indirectly about him in this thread, but regarding the post above: yeah, obvious troll is obvious.

If you could keep the oblique troll name calling to this thread, that would be appreciated.

You don’t have to of course, it’s just a gentle ask, but I think it would cut down on the noise on the other thread for people who don’t feel the need to shut down my opinions.

Sorry, I know I won’t play, I’m not into entertaining trolls, just pointing them out from time to time in this thread.
