Yeah I know. He just accused me of enabling and coddling a racist. I’m not going to handle that well.
Dude, this is the pit. You can say “fuck”.
I use talk text to dictate my posts for the most part. It just automatically does that to swear words.
Nope, not a mod. However, I’m a poster, this is the Pit, and I feel completely, blissfully free to tell you when you’re being a troll-enabling piece of shit. Which is exactly what this thread is about - CB is a troll, and beyond redemption. You, however, can still do better.
Maybe, just maybe, I have energy enough for both. And since the asshole in question hasn’t come back at me, that leavesthe lesser of two assholes to deal with.
Not while you’re enabling the motherfucker, you’re not.
I don’t really know you as a poster, lurker. In what way are you mine?
Naah. You need to fuck off, though.
No, I accused you of enabling and coddling a troll.
You got f****** issues.
And again I know exactly what I meant and you are not going to sit here and gaslight me and tell me that I meant something other than what I did. You can take that s*** and shove it up your ass. You’re part of the reason this board is dying.
I seem to recall Jihi posting that (s)he tended to be under the influence while browsing the 'dope.

I’m not under the influence of anything right now. Was that really necessary?
This is the thread for calling out drunk posters, not trolls.
~Max
Sure. Right now, your troll-enabling ass is one of them.
I don’t think you know what gaslighting means, idiot. Disagreeing with the effect of the idiocy you posted in this thread is not “gaslighting”. You sound like a brainless MAGA trying to turn the language of progressivism around on the progressives, maybe don’t do that.
Well, it’d have to be my own ass, I guess, there’s no room in yours alongside your own head.
No, I’m pretty sure it’s people who coddle trolls, actually. That’s why we lost many women posters, and trans posters, and PoC posters…
Okay I think I know what’s going on now. You can go look at my posting history if you’d really like to. I am not a MAGA in any way shape or form. And anyone who seen my posts will tell you that. You have completely the wrong idea about me. I’m willing to let that go. You have a good day
I didn’t say you were a MAGA, I said you were sounding like one.
Which should be enough to give anyone pause and say to themselves “What was I THINKING?”
golf clap
NO, in the words of @thorny_locust, you’re apparently NOT ever going to get it. 
It’d be laughable if you were apparently capable of reading for comprehension (hint, look at what T_L and I are actually talking about).
But joy of joys, I’m pretty sure the following:
Touches on actual trolling, which is still banned even in the Pit, or at least, implies that’s what you were doing in the original post that landed you here. You know, posting solely with intent to stir up a reaction? Which you’ve very obviously moved on to, so I suggest to all that @ColdBrew50 has volunteered himself for a lateral transfer back to our parent Trolls thread, or (extra special!) a one-size fits all dedicated Pit thread! What an overachiever!
@Jihi and @MrDibble, pause for a moment. First, I’m probably more on @Jihi’s side on this, after all, I’m the dumbass who tried to get DrDeth to look at what he was doing after his most recent screwup, and all it got me was a Et tu, Brute moment from him. I do tend to overanalyze, which is what I feel Jihi is doing here.
@MrDibble, I have in this very thread stated that I feel you’re sometimes too certain in your certainty, but do not doubt the truth of your passions. So, I get it, trolls are a bane and you feel figuring them out is less important than giving them the boot. That’s also probably harsh but fair, but some people poke the troll with a stick, some try to figure it out.
If you instead think Jihi is being dishonest, or a sock/trock, then again, the parent thread or spin off button is right there.
Otherwise, happy Thursday your horrible motherfuckers! Now go forth and be excellent to one another (unless they’re trolls, at which point, Fuck 'em up).
For the record I have been on this board for over 25 years. I came on right after the move from aol. I remember reading this board when that was a recent topic of conversation. I am not a sock or a troll. I am very familiar with @MrDibble and his posting history. Overall I I like him as a poster. But I will agree he lets his passions get the better of him sometimes. And right now I think he’s jumping at shadows. And I know how to defend myself. I’m not mad about anything. As far as I’m concerned it’s over.
Here is a fact: you posted this:
Here is another fact:
Beret Guy is generally read as being male.
I don’t know whether Munroe has explicitly said so. But there’s absolutely no way that the XKCD character with a beret is drawn as a “girly-girl”.
You are absolutely entitled to dislike the strip. You are also absolutely entitled to dislike the strip without having ever read enough of it to know anything about the characters.
But, at least on this board, you are not entitled, without repercussions, to claim a reason for disliking the strip that is absolute bullshit.
And, as @Atamasama said, one of the repercussions is going to be that people aren’t going to trust anything else you say, either.
But you have to admit, the stick figures in XKCD are far too sexy for a dry math and science blog.
/sarcasm
IMO/IME in the xkcd comic universe (XCU) obvious hair === female & no hair === male without exception.
The first time he draws a hippie guy w long hair we’ll all be utterly gender-bended.
