He's just good at strawmanning people, IMO. But I don't want this to be another rant against Khem thread... because I'm the common denominator and I don't wanna get in trouble. I've already been banned over silly shit before. I definitely went a little overboard trying to get rid of Pool (although I was trying to hurry up the inevitable, my intentions were good, but indeed they were irrelevant. Although yes, I was clearly 100% right about him and I was just facepalming over Pool's whole facade)... but then when I made a parody thread about Neo but merely didn't directly state that it was a parody thread, I even put it in the humor section but that wasn't good enough, I still got warned for trolling lol. Even though loads of people have parodied other people's threads and that wasn't seen as trolling at all /rant
Anyways, the point is that although we both agree on the matter of Khem, and henryp/wallym appears to too. I'm the common denominator because I can't stand the guy. And I don't wanna get in trouble for it (anytime I continually talk about one specific person it gets considered trolling and I get told I'm "following" them around (what does that even mean on an internet forum when I'm just more interested in responding to or talking about some people more than others? There's no malice here, just infuriation at someone who gets on my tits)).
My spats with Khem go all the way back to 2012, when I played devil's advocate for pantheism, and the entire thread was about some very basic point that he couldn't grasp. I still doubt that he could.
But yeah, please I'll be sure to be the one who gets in trouble if we keep talking about it. Just because when I'm feeling ranty I express it. I've always been like that, but the rules are changing around me.
