Silly Atreyu using silly puns to silly up this thread. Silly, silly, silly. Yes, yes, no, yes, thanks for the potatoes(answers). ---

**Darkhold** Oh that would be quite a war. It would be fun to have Pastor Fred here. I am an admitted homo sapien and I wonder what he’d say about the punishment that awaited me in the afterlife. ---

Funny you should post this, but a couple of hours ago, there was a guy who apparently registered, posted, and was banned in the Pit several times over. I would link you, but alas, all the threads have now disappeared. It was fun, however while it lasted. There was even a tangent thread on the pit where we commented on the procedings, and it got locked! ---

Although most of the detritus has been cleaned up on the relevant aisles by our tireless administrators, it looked like he’d really arrived late this weekend. Some threads about “fudgepackers” and whatnot got locked down and then vaporized. I don’t know that it was Phred but the views and attitudes expressed were contiguous therewith. The banned OP apparently kept re-registering (and getting re-banned in very very short order). Start with [this feller](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php?s=&action=getinfo&userid=41679) and walk chronologically through the next dozen or so usernames and you’ll see what I mean. Be careful of what dire demons from the lakes of diarrhea you do summon, lest they take you up on your invite! ---

(actually there’s an interval of several legitimate users who registered during this guy’s initial posting spree. the re-registering picks up around userid 41685. and a sprinkle of other legit registrants remains interspersed among his attempted resurrections. look for BANNED in the obvious spot) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/welcome-to-our-newest-member-rev-fred-phelps/214736.md?page=1)
