He really appears more thoughtful to you? Maybe it's the disingenousness of his schtick but I don't see that at all.

I'd say it's about equal.

Anteater is a real stand-up guy in my book. I haven't read the whole thread, but from from the things in his post he is speaking from his own personal experience. He's not trolling as in saying things (regardless whether he believes them or not) that he knows will aggravate other members. He is speaking from life experiences, not something some college professor whispered in his ear. His schtick is no bigger than your schtick. He has his own brand of humor (as you do and every other member here have except for the boring ones.)

Even if this wasn't specifically targeting anybody it was still kinda savage.

I had to have a "boring" clause to include myself in, cause you don't finds me funny.

He has his moments but I find his humour a bit contrived tbh.

^ My opinion is that Anteater is usually, or always was, a stand up guy, but, just as with Chula and Frownland, some of the things he wrote in that thread crossed a line or two.

Nonetheless, I'd like to see the thread re-opened if poss: what're we going to do if it's still locked when the impeachment proceedings begin?!
