I didn’t say that! Your buddy Darren G did. ---

> [@saucywench](#): > > I didn’t say that! Ah, I see what happened. After reading the whole conversation, I went back and intended to quote @Darren_Garrison, but you had simply copied and pasted what he wrote into your comment _without_ quoting him. So I saw the sentence I was looking for and inadvertently quoted your post. I think we share the blame here - the way you posted it looks like you _did_ say that at, and technically I didn’t change anything in what I quoted. Since this was nothing but a silly joke, I won’t bother to ask a mod to fix it, but feel free to do so if you wish. ---

Arrrr!!! Quit making my notifications go off. I’ve got important stuff to read in Cafe Society. “Just try to keep up!” was also a silly joke. Sort of. I made sure to use the quotation marks for you this time. ---

-sigh- I’m looking at 33 posts in the thread since I last looked in and thought, “Wow! We’ve got a bumper crop of trolls or one _really_ big asshole.” All I get is an intraboard squabble. Disappointed, I am. ---

I don’t know if I’d call it a troll, but is there a more low quality poster than @D_Anconia ? Not sure what value they bring to the board with gems such as: > [@Biden now least popular president of all time, including Trump {Not Accurate, see below}](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/biden-now-least-popular-president-of-all-time-including-trump-not-accurate-see-below/966117/37): > > Try 40 years. ---

Honestly, the OP of that thread could qualify, too, making a false claim and getting defensively snarky when called on it. Their response definitely reads to me as being more about trying to rile people up than actually discuss the political aspects. I suspect that, before the rule change on moving threads to the Pit, that a mod would have at least considered moving it here. And, yeah, I see what DA did as trolling, too. Not to the level that breaks the rules by itself, but it was definitely more about riling people up than discussion. He’s embraced the idea that he’s just a shit-stirrer. At least the OP may just be defensive because he made a mistake (though I seem to remember him being the guy who would mock people for talking about Trump so much, so I’m unsure.)
