Yet another new troll: Lionel Mandrake

Registered in Feb 2000. Likes to hang out in GD and insult atheists, liberals, and people whose constitutional understanding is better than his. See A country founded on Christianity and Gay Agenda threads.

At the very least this is a man in need of a valium prescription.

He doesn’t seem to fit any of our known trolls’ profiles, but something tells me he isn’t a newbie either. What do y’all think?


Never attribute to an -ism anything more easily explained by common, human stupidity.

“Your cover must be credible.”

Oh, yeah. Morondrake is really credible.

Another fucking putz. Why can’t these assholes leave us alone?

They never will, Wally, and the well is deep. I will note that the board did manage a reasonably good freeze on OJ.

Who knows who’ll show up tomorrow?

Hmmm … the board froze OJ … then Lionel Mandrake shows up, and his VERY FIRST message is one directed at OJ and “instructing him” on how to be a better troll.

I’m suspecting more and more that OJ and Mandrake are the same person.

This is a bizarre phrase.

In Freemasonry, there’s a very similar wording used to identify one Mason to another… IIRC, “Oh God, is there no help for the widow’s son?”

Undoubtedly just a strange coincidence. But weird.

I think Mandrake was trying to imply that he had Masonic connections, but he got the phrasing wrong. I can’t wait until he claims Boy Scout membership, and flashes the Vulcan “Live Long and Prosper!” sign to prove it. :slight_smile:

What does it mean that “I will note that the board did manage a reasonably good freeze on OJ.” as posted by Beatle?

It means that for once, and perhaps for the only time, we managed not to get down in the gutter and wallow with the trolls and morons. Usually we argue with them, and start threads about them in the pit, so that they will know that their childish pranks are more powerful than our own thought and reason.

The only difference in OJ’s case is that the thread is in MPSIMS instead of the Pit.

Actually, the OJSimpson poster appeared in numerous threads in several (all?) Fora. As far as I know, only Mandrake has addressed it in any way.

Our honoured guest hasn’t posted since his last, indignant defense yesterday. Has he gone under the big bridge in the sky?

Dammit, hansel! Don’t you know that by speaking a troll’s name, they show up?

Not an hour after you tentatively asked if he was gone, he pops back up in “A country founded on Christianity” again (link in OP above).

It’s like horror movies, people. The first time you think you’re safe again is always a false sense of security. These things have to be put down again and again before they die, and then they just show up under a different name for the sequel.

Argh. Sorry for the rant. I’ll go take my happy-pills now.

This is not a sig.

And, in retrospect, Hansel didn’t even speak the offending name.

Sigh. I’m gonna go lie down with a cold compress and think of warm days and fuzzy bunnies until my mind returns to a less enfeebled state.

Sorry about that, chief.

I read most of the “A Country Founded on Christianity?” thread.

The guy ain’t a troll, he’s a moron! He started at the bottom and somehow managed to go downhill from there.

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems that there have been a higher-than-normal amount of trolls on these boards lately. It seems like there is a new one hatched evey day or so.

I told you not to be stupid, you moron.

Well, there are 4500 people registered now.

Hi!

Wow! It’s so thrilling to be so popular!

I mean, gosh, you all talk about me behind my back!

To answer your questions.

No. I am not the same person as “OJ”.
No. I have not been lurking. I am a newbie. And the idea that I “must” be something other is truly hilarious in its egotism!

Golly gee, you ladies and gentleman DO take yourselves so very seriously don’t you?

Well, where do we start? I thank you for reappearing, Mr. Mandrake. We’ve had quite a rush of trolls in the first two months of this year and the dismissal factor is running high amongst board members. That combined with last week’s hack of the board has got a little twitch in all.

Your reappearance begs the question: are you really just a troll or a newbie who needs to learn a bit about the tone of discourse that works here? I’m willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, for now.

Regards,

Your conservative atheist fellow,

Lord almighty, Jesus save me, not ANOTHER one!

How’s that for your tone Mister Lord Snodblow?

Hello? Hello? Is there a narc out there? Will I be pilloried for “fake farts”?

My God, you bonehoners are OBSESSED with contemplation of your own navels aren’t you?
