A _shred_ is asking for too much. He doesn’t even have an _iota_.

Pathetic. “oohhh… Nate was in this Musk thread interrupting our circle jerk about how evil he is… he provided cites that proved what we assumed was completely wrong, but I don’t like that, wwwaaahhhh… I’ll just post that he’s being stubborn, I mean come on, Musk is a terrible person, who cares if the reasons why we think so might be wrong, waaahhh… Oh, Nate wants us to point out where he is wrong? Well, this is not the place! We must tell him to leave because as humans we just have this natural reaction to when we’re confronted with evidence that proves we are mistaken, it just doesn’t feel good!” wahhhwahh

Your “evidence” in the other thread was primarily attacking the SDMB as horrible for disagreeing with you. The rest were either nitpicking one word out of a post and acting like it would somehow debunk it, or posting citations that actually proved the opposite of what you claimed. But mostly it was just attacking the SDMB because we dared not like Elon Musk.

You kept saying you weren’t some Musk fanboy, but you’re clearly willing to burn all bridges here to defend this guy. You’re willing to believe that everyone else is wrong and you are right.

You’re now thought of as a troll. People are putting you on ignore for being such a colossal asshole (as I will after this post). Was defending the honor of a selfish billionaire worth all that? Or are you just that arrogant?

If I didn’t know better, I would actually think you were Musk, because your behaviors are similar. The only thing is, there’s no way the real Musk wouldn’t tell everyone who he is or threaten to buy the SDMB because we were being mean to him.

Still, the reason you can’t seem to figure out that what Musk does is shitty is that you don’t have any problem acting the same way. That’s why I suspect you took this all personally. And why, even months out, you still haven’t taken that calm bit of introspection.

All I can say is that at least it wasn’t defending TERFs.

FWIW, I do not have **nate** on ignore; I’ve just been scrolling past the sealion’s posts since St. Pat’s.

Better **nate** than TERF.  
Wish I could find a word for “TERF” that rhymes with “lever”.

Makes one wonder if someone has done studies seeing if internet trolls tend to be authoritarian in nature and political persuasion.

Eh. It’s the Pit. The thread’s not going to get closed (unless we want it to be). And someone who was trolling in another thread decided to come in here and troll even more. Now people have the opportunity to say what they wanted to say to him in the thread proper.

It’ll all die off soon enough as everyone gets in their last word and then ignores him.

I like oatmeal cookies, but even better are chocolate chip cookies without the chips.

No, I, it’s not going to be a boring ~~soup~~ cookie! It just, that’s just the base! You put the chips in if you want, but you gotta add other flavors. Flour, sugar, and butter are just a base of a ~~soup~~ cookie!

But honestly, chipless Toll House are great.
