    Okay,with all the discussion about trolls, etc., I'll ask about something I've asked before... when you go to your profile page there's a spot on the left that says "Friends". However, I can't see a way to know who your "friends" are. I'm fortunate enough to have 1 friend!

    I also have not seen a way to indicate that you want to be someone's friend.

    I was the one following you but I thought it was more like stalking.
    Do I need to be looking over my shoulder at the Toronto Eggfest?
    No, you're safe.  I "followed" a few of the Canadian Eggers in the TO area early on in the hopes of hearing about some local deals.

    #:-S
    Weird.  I just checked my stats and my "follow" had been de-activated.  I was still following @littlesteven and @pantsypants but that was it.  Can you kick some one off as your follower?  Did you?  If so I'm not sure if I'm hurt or not.  I'm the sensitive type...

    I would never get rid of a follower!

    Well, "spa-Peggy" is kind of like spaghetti. I'm not sure what Peggy does different, if anything. But it's the one dish she's kind of made her own.

    You'd make a good cult leader.

    Maybe, but I have zero interest in young girls so that probably rules me out.

    Typically, I will turn right three times, then left, then right, then left, then right, then right. If you still have a tail, it's either the fuzz or mobsters. Good luck!!!

    I just stumbled onto this thread. This is really good. It kind of feels like a well-written Big Bang Theory episode.

    Damn I should have paid more attention in school! I'm getting a good laugh at this but I'm almost positive that a lot of this is going right over my head and I could be laughing a lot more! I love this forum and the diversity of people and topics. This place is more fun than any of the car forums I have hung out on!! Rock on! \:D/

    It appears our history is rife with trolls.  I thought this was new, but clearly it is not.  I guess the site could be comapred to Israel and Gaza.

    Any one heard from @TexanOfTheNorth as of late? Hope all is well with him.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    @PigBeanUs - I actually recall inquiring as the the identity of @SenecaTheYounger several years ago.  The response was complete with plausible denials from the Seneca.  Full circle many ears on!

    It was me

    Corning glassware exec/research guy. 

    Was a character. Started as a way to be dry and not engage, while answering newbie questions

    as the clan poked and prodded, i dialed up the ‘spectrum’ aspect of things and had some fun

    little steven guessed it early on. 

    RRP said he thought it was also, but he guesses that EVERY new ‘personality’ is me, so he didn’t really score any points.

    I remember, somewhere, sometime, or not, I recall you saying (or maybe it was me saying to you or through a third party) that you/me never had a troll account, insofar as you/me/legion never pretended to be someone else.  With the exception of one account that was created explicitly for an elaborate performance (and one where the verisimilitude would quickly ramp asymptotically to zero). 

    But then again, I/me/you/your mom/fish's dad, et al aren't completely incapable of lying to (list of confusing characters) and so the only thing I'm sure of at this point is my ability to be unsure of everything to said trust issue.
