Trolls R Us Resurrections

Does that reference P&J sandwiches or a Fender PJ bass (the P pickup is split)?

The poster in question himself seemed to confirm the former to me a few months ago (I love me some intricate guitar sounds but am 100% ignorant of such terms), but then again he’s being discussed in this thread isn’t he…

May 2021 (post #16 the conspiracy theorist’s dedicated Pit thread):

My screen name refers to my bass pickups

I don’t know if I read that and that’s why my mind went there, or if it’s because I’m a bass player.

Possible troll/sock alert in the “Kamala Harris run up to the election” thread in P&E. Relatively new poster Cool, seems to have registered about a year ago, relatively low read time. Has come into the middle of said thread and seems to be arguing that the “immigrants eat pets” BS is a sign of societal collapse? And not in the way you’re thinking.

Anyway, I briefly considered responding to that post but I think my time is probably better spent here.

But I responded! Do you think you’re better than me??? You get your ass in that thread right now and debate our current state of ‘social decay’!!!

Or, yeah - probably best not to bother :wink: . But I remembered Wasco leg-eating guy from the news, so just couldn’t help myself. I’m weak sometimes.

I’d considered it too… That the story of one crazy person means society was collapsing. My reply would have been along the lines of, “Why does society hinge on the behavior of this one person?” But meh, that person is pretty obviously a troll, or if not, close enough to treat it as one.

I just wanted to point out that their recent poll in the polls only thread is SUPER trolly.

Paraphrasing, it insists oh, this poll isn’t about anything IRL, but you can have a terrible, murder/rapist/grifting candidate who puts forward better policies that you trust they’ll enact over another candidate who is honest and good, but their policies are only fine. Who do you support?

The fucking wink wink, nudge nudge, and the “see, the ends justify the means” is horrific. I already attacked (within the limits of the discussion thread) the poll, but of course, Velocity is eating it up.

I am much worse that identifying trocks than others, so I can’t speak to that assumption, but with this, and the quoted chunk above, oh yeah, he’s fucking trolling.

Of course he is. He responded to this thread, after all:

That thread being a not-so-tongue-in-cheek reaction to his habit of disingenuously limiting the scope of threads to to effectively force people to mimic conservative beliefs, or else stay out. For example, a thread about god designed to force atheists to adopt a theistic mindset for the sake of argument (it occurs to me I probably can’t link to it under current board rules as I understand them).

ETA: The title of that specific thread was Atheists: If there had to be a god, what would you want it to be like?

I found the thread, but it’s nearly four years dormant so I won’t zombify it, but my answer is: Banjo the clown puppet.

Take that back heretic, Banjulhu is eternal!

Clown Fight!!

This can only be settled by a pie-eating contest.

Gacy? Again? Ugh

Reminds me of the premise of that awful book by O.J. Simpson.

One to watch - link broken:

A Google image search of the associated profile photo yields a bit of interesting history around the Interwebs.

Troll?? You be the judge.

But do wear a robe :wink:

I saw that. Just a spammer probably.

I forgot that was here. :man_facepalming:

Whatever they were, they weren’t being honest. Seems they already had their car show.
