Sounds more like a sexist teenager or pre-teen, if you ask me.

Barbara, I'll second your nomination. I wonder why he is more worried about you than why his investment is evaporating before his eyes. Good find, Phil

I see in his profile that he is Young (but astute). Sorry for the burden that you should not have to bear. The shame is his.

I'd like to nominate BuzzVA, a sexist man who thinks because I have the opposite side of the trade I must be in menopause I second that, and further I would like to add the following, again from my friend H L Mencken. Btw, I have wondered if Mr. Mencken ever dreamt of the existence of the SI Universe, where many of his thoughts are so aptly applicable.... Then again, it could also be that the large majority of the members of the human race have always expressed themselves generally in idiotic terms, the Internet simply has open the door for even a larger amount of the same. Here is one of Mr. Mencken thoughts that are appropriate given your nominee's comments: "A man always blames the woman who fools him. In the same way he blames the door he walks into in the dark." A side comment here, I do not believe you specifically fooled him, but he certainly seems to take it personally that as you indicate, you have taken the other side of the trade. For some reason, the majority of the posters in SI, particularly dealing in Pennies, seem to think that if you are not on the bull's side then you are an outcast, demonic evil bastard. All you need to do is look at several of the threads, they are more like cult gatherings, or as I have in the past refer to some of those threads as "The Circus of the Absurd". Truly pathetic, the posts that you have used for his nomination only confirm my image of this SI Universe. Quite frankly, this thread is a lot more fun than reading some of the utter rubbish of the other ones.... (Thank you Len). And... "Women decide the larger questions of life correctly and quickly, not because they are lucky guessers, not because they practise a magic inherited from savagery, but simply and solely because they have sense. They see at a glance what most men could not see with searchlights and telescopes... They are the supreme realists of the race." Even if you were incorrect, (which I doubt given the penny stock universe), his comments are indeed sexists as you pointed out, precisely worthy of..... a moron. If he were correct in whatever issue it may be at hand, he could have counter you with facts rather than with his garbage. Z. And so for the sexist [freshly nominated moron] pig, this is what he deserves: intriguing.com

Barbara, obviously the guy is fiddling without any strings... invite him over to the Flame Thread... there's a fire burning for him there outside of the pure annoyance of having to deal with that kind of wanker, the least he could do is be more clever in his envy

hmmmmm our candidate gets into an argument with a woman and feels a natural biological process is material for an insult. hmmmmm where have we seen this m.o. before? Could this be the long awaited reemergence of the much missed SJB? The jury waits with bated breath.

Well, shoot, it appears that Buzz's posts have been deleted.

Barbara, I don't suppose you saved his posts? Apparently a gigantic disk eraser has run amok through his posts. KJC
