...m0st pe0ple are m0re stupid than me.

g00d luck with that...

[Bicycle Bill]

I don't think there are too many people who are dumber than you.  And if there are, believe me when I say that I don't want to know about them.

Seriously, how long have you been fucking around with that 'broken' keyboard?  We've given you at least two good suggestions for replacing or working around it, but instead of fixing the problem you're still bound and determined to keep inflicting your mindless "0 for O" substitutions on us.

I hope for your sake nothing ever happens to your toilet.  You're the kind of nitwit who would dig himself a pit and put an outhouse over it rather than fix the modern plumbing ... and then try to tell us that you were doing it to save on the water bill.

He s tr0lling y0u, BB, and y0u re falling f0r it.

[Joe Guy]

Wesw's 0's don't bother me. When he uses them it's kinda like he's talking while running over bumps in the road. I was gonna say straining at the toilet but I didn't think that would be appropriate or politically correct.

As is so frequently the case, the truth is the exact opposite of what wes asserts...

Wes:

My hope in fact lies in the belief that most people are less stupid than you are. In the last election, 53.9% of the folks that turned out to vote demonstrated that they were less stupid than you, (by voting for someone other than Donald Trump) and my hope is that in the coming election that even more people who turn out to vote will prove to be less stupid than you, (particularly after they have had four years of Trump; some of the less stupid will have become smart enough not to vote for him a second time) and prevent him from stitching together another narrow electoral college victory by a margin of 78,000 votes spread over three states...

Widespread stupidity (and/or ignorance of the facts, or delusional, fantastical, beliefs) is the fundamental pillar upon which Donald Trump's re-election hopes are based. (He can't get re-elected relying just on the racists, xenophobes and other assorted vile misanthropes who support him; they're only about 20% of the electorate.) Without it, he cannot possibly prevail. It is those who are opposed to Trump who are tasked with overcoming this stupidity...

I hope I've cleared that up for you...

[Gob]

Wes is treading dangerously close to my accepting his request to ban him.

[Lord Jim]

Better to let him continue to make a fool out of himself than to give him any excuse to think of himself as some sort of Trumpanzee free speech martyr...

[Gob]

I wouldn't be making him a "Trumpanzee free speech martyr", just an "inconsiderate, fuckwitted, ill-mannered, ignoranus, martyr" though.

[Crackpot]

He doesn’t know the difference.

No, don't be hasty. wesw gives me a certain political perspective, and mind numbing superficiality that I cannot find anywhere else. I think we need that kind of balance in here.

Don't ban him until at least January 20, 2021.

I agree. I occasionally encounter individuals like wes IRL—not often, but often enough to remind me that he is not alone in his opinions. I don't think there's much likelihood that he'll change, but the fact that he's willing to keep posting here despite all the abuse he gets makes him an asset to this board, as a reality check to those of us who think he's some sort of wacko. (There's also an occasional genuinely funny nonpolitical post.)

But I do wish he'd get himself a cheap new USB keyboard.

But I do wish he'd get himself a cheap new USB keyboard.

“People are hitting "0" 10 times, 15 times as opposed to once. They end up using more keystrokes,” Trump said, continuing that the Environmental Protection Agency is "looking at" the issue at "his suggestion."

“We have a situation where we’re looking very strongly at USB keyboards and other elements of communicating, where you hit "0" on in areas where there’s tremendous amounts of "O" , where it pisses everybody off because you could never handle change. And you don’t get any better. You turn on the "0" and you don’t get any friends,”Trump said during the White House round-table on small business and red tape reduction.

I do like 'ignoranus', Gob. I'll use it sometime in the future and pretend it's all mine.

wesw has posted a number of times in just the past couple of weeks using the o key; he’s very obviously tr0lling this board with that stupid BS and probably everything else, including his political posts.

I’m really gobsmacked by the naïveté of some of the older and presumably otherwise wiser persons posting to this board. Maybe it’s because you all came of age well before the internet? Whoever this wesw person is, if he is even a separate entity from our other core posting group (i.e., not a sock puppet of one of us), then he is well and truly fucking with this board and it’s becoming tiresome to watch him repeatedly drive the conversation and focus of the board every time he re-emerges.

I’ll drop in now and then to see Gob’s photos, but I’m taking a break otherwise during this latest reiteration of the wesw show, live at the Plan B.

[Guinevere]

Troll or not, he's here to stay. He's also a liar, and entirely untrustworthy, but that shouldn't surprise anyone, given his political idol/s.

[wesw]

trump is my vehicle.

br00ks r0bins0n is my id0l.

[Guinevere]

Brooksie has a huge heart, and would vomit over your support of Trumplestiltskin. He would never make fun of people with disabilities, support racists, or lie, cheat, and steal (not even second base). If he's really your idol you should start living up to him. Otherwise, its just bullshit.

[Lord Jim]

I'm also a big Brooks Robinson fan...

He was certainly the best fielding 3rd baseman I ever saw play the game...

He is also by all accounts a real class act and a true gentleman....

Let's see...

Genuinely accomplished professionally, a class act and a gentleman...

Yep, pretty much The Anti-Trump....

[wesw]

he is still alive guin.
