Hey PJR, your type is spreading to other parts of the internet... your brand
of stalking and libel-posting isn't just for Usenet any more... here's the
story from the New York Times:

The typical anonymous, unregistered stalking and libel-posting troll is not
a new phenomenon on Topix Forums... the site has had repeated problems with
anonymous, unregistered "flame trolls", who stalk and post what can verge
into the territory of libel, for example:

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/09/20/us/small-town-gossip-moves-to-the-web-anonymous-and-vicious.html

"...a social media Web site called Topix, where they write and read
startlingly negative posts, all cloaked in anonymity, about one another. And
in Dee’s Place, people are not happy... called Topix a 'cesspool of
character assassination.' [...] In rural America, older, poorer remote
population lagged the rest of the country in embracing the Internet, the
growing use of social media is raising familiar concerns about bullying and
privacy... hubs of unsubstantiated gossip, stirring widespread resentment in
communities where ties run deep, memories run long and anonymity is a novel
concept. 'Something about rural culture seems to make people want to have
conversations in public,' Topix, a site lightly trafficked in cities, enjoys
a dedicated and growing following across the Ozarks, Appalachia and much of
the rural South, establishing an unexpected niche in communities of a few
hundred or few thousand people..."

And, of course, there's a difference between free speech and libel. The
posts made here and elsewhere on Topix.com by the trolls you asked about
generally tend to fall into the latter category

More interesting minimalism...

Little Homeless Clown / a poem by Will Dockery

The sign on the door read enter at your own risk.
Too many times now betrayed by the Judas kiss.
My baby rode by in a brand new pickup truck.
She waved goodbye, blew me a kiss for luck.
So I been out rambling shambling through the trailer park 'til dawn.
She was frozen in the hall like headlines on a fawn.
Give me another run before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little... homeless clown.

All alone in this big old house again.
Harangued by all my so-called friends.
Well it's too late now she's riding with the wind.
Just last week she said she'd stick by me to the end.
Ain't no crystal ball but I can feel it in the back of my bones.
She got a sugar daddy she ain't never coming home.
Give me another run before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little.. homeless clown.

I could tell she was lonely, it just wasn't for me,
She's got a little hankering to be a divorcee.
Give me another run,before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little... homeless clown.

-Will Dockery (poem)/ Henry Conley (music)

Topix ... that's the site you basically shut down with your incessant trolling, n'est-ce pas?

This one definitely comes across better when heard with with the music setting:

Little Homeless Clown by Will Dockery (words) and Henry Conley (music):

Little Homeless Clown / a poem by Will Dockery

The sign on the door read enter at your own risk.
Too many times now betrayed by the Judas kiss.
My baby rode by in a brand new pickup truck.
She waved goodbye, blew me a kiss for luck.
So I been out rambling shambling through the trailer park 'til dawn.
She was frozen in the hall like headlines on a fawn.
Give me another run before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little... homeless clown.

All alone in this big old house again.
Harangued by all my so-called friends.
Well it's too late now she's riding with the wind.
Just last week she said she'd stick by me to the end.
Ain't no crystal ball but I can feel it in the back of my bones.
She got a sugar daddy she ain't never coming home.
Give me another run before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little.. homeless clown.

I could tell she was lonely, it just wasn't for me,
She's got a little hankering to be a divorcee.
Give me another run,before the sun goes down.
Give me another hit my little... homeless clown.

-Will Dockery (poem)/ Henry Conley (music)

I'm flattered by your amazing faith in my ability, Pendragon, but, no, it wasn't me.

How many people have you driven out of this group over the years?

And you needn't be flattered.  Any illiterate oaf with nothing better to do can flood a group with pointless, idiotic posts 24/7.  Your only "talent" is in your immovability.  You're like a pissbum who's staked out his corner and will sit there for the next thirty years until he dies.

You seem to be projecting, Pendragon, since all you do here is lie, gay lame and make misogynistic attacks

😀

You tried to drive Stephan Pickering out of this group....

Sorry Lady Bunny, but you and your fellow pissbums aren't immortal.

Dunce and Lady Pickles have approximately 8 months of life expectancy left.  Will's got a few years (maybe) and you're practically dog meat as we speak.

I'm cool with Rachel.

I'll just think of this group as the AAPC Dead Pool and wait to see which one of us drops dead first.

You predicted your own death as within five years... about five years ago, right, Pendragon?

I posted from my Eternal-September account, where posts never the threads remain active until I get to them, there's no deadline here, Pendragon.

I have plenty of obsessions, Will:

My family, my car, my writing, Poe, Frankie Laine, old movies, death, "Supernatural," "Twin Peaks," black magick, Orson Welles...

Although, unlike yourself, I readily admit to them.

Good afternoon, "Me".
