    See, you've heard Dick's side of the story. If the moderators really want us to have this out, any number of us could post any number of PMs from Dick that clearly show how long his leash has been, and how often he has violated every rule here.

    Now, see, there was an example of me not reading the room correctly ...

    On this very thread, for the one millionth time, you have reacted badly to a joke about you. It's right up there, for everyone to see it. You're like Trump, lying about something he said on video. LET'S PLAY THE TAPE.

    You're getting a little too wrapped up in this, amigo. As I get in a PM maybe once every five months or so, "It's just a friggin' message board."

    There's ample evidence of this even without involving Whitman at all.

    Reacted badly?

    Dude, I was trying to joke back.

    Oh, I know. But fuck, I can't stand a phony.

    "You guys lecture us all the time about how we're supposed to treat you with respect. You guys lock threads over it. You sticky threads.

    And then you act like a dick toward us.

    How do expect people to feel?

    If you have a problem with me, I'd be happy to continue it over PM. But your post was uncalled for."

    Great fucking joke. Real side-splitter.

    Honestly, trolling on a thread about trolling is a next-level fucking troll. I actually have to hand it to our resident suburban lawyer. This is art.

    I'm going to get high so I can really enjoy it.

    No. Half the room is saying that given how commonly the word "trolling" is used, the word itself no longer means anything.
