Really Not All That Bright, I’d guess.
Yup, that’s who I was thinking of.
The main troll who also loved baseball that I recall was pseudotriton_ruber_ruber.
He wasn’t a troll, he was a person that rubbed many others the wrong way but not a troll.
Also, I met him IRL.
Apologies for the accusation. I just remember him being into baseball before being banned.
He was a big Mets fan and if I remember right, a Sabrmetric guy. He really hated the 7th inning God Bless America stuff as a very outspoken Atheist. That last bit is where he mainly angered other posters.
I enjoyed talking baseball with him and he was far less grating in person which is true of many people. Of course as an agnostic, his anti-religious rants really didn’t bother me anyway.
That alone is worth banning!
(Just kidding, we’re not talking about the Yankees here.)
Careful there, I bleed pinstripes. Born in the Bronx no less.
I’m a Mariners fan, so everything I say comes from nothing but envy.
Have pity. 
Not this year! (as I say most years until the all star break and things fall apart)
They’re always good enough to give you hope until you get crushed.
They can’t just suck like the White Sox or Rockies. No, they look amazing until something goes wrong.
It’s an abusive relationship I tell you.
I’m a Rockies fan as well. I know how to pick’em!
Oh damn.
They haven’t been good lately, but not like THIS. They’ve been a punching bag for opponents.
I still look back longingly to their 2007 season. Made it to game three of the NLCS to see them beat the DBacks (along with several regular season games that year). That was a great end of season for them till they got to the World Series.
Tell me about it! I miss the 2005 trolls they were…
never mind…
…the centerfield cannot hold…
I’m another thread, a poster claims that only cishet whites, typically men, ever demonize intersectionality.
I point out that there are, in contact, people of all races who engage in that practice, including Cadance Owens:
Prolific liar @crowmanyclouds decides to use the opportunity to pretend I support Cadance Owens in any way, shape, or form:
I thought about putting this in the “What were you thinking” thread, but that’s meant for people who usually contribute meaningful content to a thread but had an occasional idiotic post. I’ve literally never seen anything but smarmy invective-filled one liners from @crowmanyclouds. I guess it’s worth an occasional chuckle when his target deserves it, but he’s got to be one of the lowest signal-to-noise ratio posters on this website. An absolute fucking moron.
His name was Nick. Why I remember that is a mystery; I also remember the poem he wrote encouraging dental hygiene.
Yes it was. I remember him vividly. I remember the time he and Mallory went to a French restaurant, where they were served croissants in a basket as they waited to order. He asked what the word for “croissant” was in French, and the confused reply was that it was “croissant”. He then logically concluded that French and English were the same thing, and he can just speak French by speaking English.
If I’m remembering correctly, he made his living as an artist, and he mainly collected garbage he found on the side of the road so that he could put it together as sculptures. Which I assume was meant to further reinforce how dumb he was, but that’s actually a legitimate art form.
Heck, I have an AWESOME sculpture made from scrap parts welded together that looks like a xenomorph from the Aliens franchise. It looks surprisingly detailed and faithful to the film monster, but if you look closely you’ll see screws and bits of wire. (And the tail is part of a bicycle chain.) It’s one of my proudest possessions, particularly because I got it for about $60 at the Emerald City Comicon years ago, which I still think is a steal. This thing was hand-made by some guy who most have spent hours on it.
Also, I never got the impression that Nick was supposed to be the Fonz. He always reminded me a bit of what would happen if Sylvester Stallone played a dimwitted hipster artist.
Was that “We can walk on hot coals, or let ninjas fight us, but just don’t let us get gingivitis”?
That’s stuck in my head as being from some old sitcom somewhere, but until this moment, I couldn’t have told you where.
