I liked his thread about how the US is too strict on laws concerning prescription drugs. ---

I haven’t had coffee and bagel yet, so I may still be having those pineapple pizza induced dreams, but I swear that this thread is about Wildest Bill haunting someone. I should get my coffee, now. ---

Wildest Bill was no where near as irritating as some of our former friends. Then again, he’s not calling me up and asking me to be his puppet. Does anyone remember: Hillary Clinton has a fat ass! A FAT AAAASSSSS! ---

OK, you guys get the buckshot ready. Just in case, I have some alternate ammo here. ::rummaging in bag:: Um…a slingshot and a bag of marbles, two squirtguns filled with holy water, a flamethrower, a couple of rounds of silver buckshot, a Dungeons and Dragons manual on banishing spells, a wooden stake, a Holy Hand Grenade, a big butterfly net and straitjacket, some thumb cuffs, a clove of garlic, a prepubescent altar boy, and a computer keyboard with CRTL, ALT, and DELETE marked with red dots. Help yourselves. There’s plenty to go around. ---

Hmm… I’ve heard of **Wildest Bill** , but I don’t remember any of his specific posts. Maybe I’ll look some up for the entertainment value. But if he’s calling you and harassing you every day, it sounds to me like he’s an inconsiderate pest and not the kind of person the mods should or would reinstate. There are other message boards on the internet (so I’ve been told), maybe if you pointed him at one he’d quit humping your leg. ---

So what’s he like, eh? Bill [welcomed me](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=64089#post1202559) to the boards, and gave me this warning: > [@](#): > > Have fun posting here and I hope you never end up in the pit(take this from someone that knows).

I’ve got to admit, I miss Wildest Bill. Yes, his posts were inflammatory, his reasoning had quite a few holes, but goshdarnit, he was amusing!! For those of you who were virulent anti-Wildest Bill, isn’t possible that you’re over-reacting? Couldn’t you just have ignored him when he got too impossible? By the way, could Wildest Bill be allowed back in if he emailed the Admin staff, apologized, and promised to be a good boy this time? ---

OH yeah. Wildest Bill was loads o’ fun. Unless you happened to be Jewish (good bargainers and so thrifty too!!), female (slut/bitch), gay (just needs a good woman), a lawyer (“scumsucking”), a cop (don’t remember the specific vitrol), a member of the A.C.L.U. (“Anti-Christ Liberal(?) Union”) or any other group that WB had a problem with. Other than those and many others, he was just a bundle o’ laughs. Maybe we can invite a Klansman in to share his opinions of blacks while we’re at it. :rolleyes: Fenris ---

What thread was “Gotcha ya!” from? I remember seeing it in someone’s sig and laughing may ass off over it, but I could never find it in his old threads. Care to enlighten me as to the whereabouts as to one of the best sayings ever on the boards? ---
