It must suck to be so close yet so far away.

My heart breaks for you brother.
It's not great, man. I was just telling the no pics wife the other day that I may give it a try one more time. I miss it, but if it's just half scoops of almost everything and dry meat, it's just not worth it. The first couple times I went, it was just stoner college kids working there. Which can either be great, or really bad. And it was really bad.

You nailed it, crazy psycho.

Everyone who went to PSU has held Sandusky's balls. How'd you figure it out? Man, we can't get anything past you.

I do have a question, though ... since I don't picture such things at all, what exactly are you picturing when you say "I'll bet you held Sandusky' balls off the children's backs"? The physics don't seem to work, but ... again ... I'm not familiar with those kinds of activities. What position are you envisioning for each party? Say it loud into the microphone, and speak clearly, so the recording device gets it cleanly. If you have pictures of what you're envisioning, send them directly to the FBI. They'll be interested. Make sure your name and address is on the envelope.

Oh, and one last thing ... you know, since you're a big believer in the dumbest and least believable application of attribution I've ever seen ... you're a huge Trump supporter ... that obviously means you're a sex trafficking sexual abusing rapist who bangs his own daughter ... right? Tell us more about that.

The Pancheros here in Cedar Falls suuuuuuuucks. And it makes me sad. I've lived up here for just over 3 years now, and have been there twice, and it was just terrible each time. Both times were within the first few months that I was here/csb

I think Panchero's is hit or miss. I've been to the North Liberty one several times over the years and it has been garbage since COVID. Went to the Iowa City one before a basketball game a few months ago and it was like the old days

Yup, it's absolutely hit or miss anymore. Which is sad, because when it's good it's friggin GOOD.

Cedar Falls has Pablo's which has been open for like 20 some years. They've got some big *** burritos, but they're always bland as hell. Like no seasonings of any sort. I've occasionally questioned whether I've just got unlucky the times I've tried it or what. Because you can't really sell bland burritos and be open for 22 years. Who knows.

I need to travel my X number of hours to go to Iowa City just to stay up until 2:00 for a good burrito.

I have not. If my memory serves me correctly, I think they were only open for a few months before I moved from CR to CF. I remember thinking that I wanted to check the place out, but just never made it over there

There are two Panchero's I won't return to. One is the CF locale you speak of, the other is in Urbandale on 100th Street.

@dpic73 has bad days??? I have found him to predictably consistent...in a good way (sometimes)

I will take your assessment of my phrasing with an acknowledgement that one man’s therapy pet pig may be on another man’s breakfast menu

dpic73 is definitely my guilty pleasure of having a debate

I think to myself when I have a dilemma I get dpic73 involved with his thoughts and then do the opposite. LOL

That is correct,
I stated that you seem to have a personality disorder, manifesting itself, at least in part, in taking pleasure in the discomfort/pain/sadness of others.

And you responded "That is correct."

The first step is to acknowledge that you have a problem. Now you need to get it treated. Based on other concerning character traits, I'd say a prolonged stay in a mental hospital would be necessary for you.

I have a live outside the internet.

I WOULDN’T scramble to chase them. I’d simply follow them and defend myself to a new crowd.

So you'd scramble to chase them. You're not defending yourself - you're just making yourself look much worse.

Nobody here cares about you. They just want you gone, because you're a stalker and a troll. If you were gone, everyone else would be happy. If you were mentally healthy, you'd want to find people who shared your common interests, and who liked and/or respected you, and you would talk with them ... instead, you've stated that your goal is to follow people around to make their lives miserable.

You justify this by saying, like a wounded child, that they were mean first. Let's, for a moment, say they were ... let's say they "attacked" you first, completely unprovoked. OK, and? A normal, functional human, who didn't have a severe personality disorder, would tell them to eff off, and then he'd go find a place where he was accepted. They wouldn't stick around to try to give them back what they thought they'd gotten ... and then keep following them around to make sure their lives were hell.

You also try to claim that, for you, this is nothing more than a time-filler while at work ... but for the others who were mean to you, this is their life. OK, so let's assume this is accurate. You claim that when the other board was shut down, it ruined their lives. That's a pretty big deal. To have one's life ruined. That's a serious thing. And, if you were sane, and if this was really just some meaningless, throwaway diversion from work for you ... and you knew that your actions resulted in ruining the lives of others ... that would make you a phucking lunatic.

Now, this is taking your word for it, and looking at it in the light most favorable to you ... and you still come off like a friggin criminal, mentally insane whacko.

Imagine what it looks like if we take their perspective into account fully? Or, agree on some middle ground. Imagine how much worse you look.

You need to seek help ... legitimately, you need to go find support for your mental issues ... before you harm yourself or others. You literally tried to describe your actions to put yourself in the best light, and you still came off as a textbook psycho stalker. Get help.

A helpful summary with some anthropological observations and armchair psychology thrown in about this thread, from our friend Chatty Gee Pee Tee:

This thread is genuinely fascinating as a case study in online tribal conflict escalation, status competition, and identity performance. What begins as “please stop behaving badly” immediately mutates into a multi-faction war over:


  • ownership of community space,
  • political identity,
  • masculinity,
  • class signaling,
  • regional stereotypes,
  • and who possesses the moral right to be insufferable online.

The important thing is that almost nobody is actually discussing the stated topic after page one. The thread becomes a social sorting mechanism.


A few broad observations before the character studies:




The Thread’s Evolutionary Stages​


Phase 1: Border Enforcement​


The OP frames the Iowa influx as an invasive species problem.


Key language:


  • “freeloading illegals”
  • “raiding”
  • “trash”
  • “paying members”

This is less “please behave” and more:


“You are contaminating our community.”

That framing guarantees escalation because it attacks identity, not behavior.




Phase 2: Ritual Humiliation​


The opposition instantly realizes:


OP is emotionally reactive.

That is blood in the water on a message board.


The thread rapidly converts into a communal sport:


  • baiting,
  • ironic flirting,
  • mom jokes,
  • recursive mockery,
  • “ignore button” taunts,
  • homoerotic joking,
  • political pile-ons.

The goal stops being persuasion and becomes:


force the target into visible emotional dysregulation.

Phase 3: Ideological Colonization​


Soon every latent grievance enters:


  • MAGA/lib discourse
  • free speech absolutism
  • immigration
  • #MeToo hypocrisy
  • Penn State/Sandusky
  • masculinity performance
  • urban authenticity
  • wrestling culture
  • “real fans”

This is classic forum behavior:


once a thread survives long enough, it absorbs all unresolved conflicts in the ecosystem.



Phase 4: Absurdist Detente​


Eventually the thread partially stabilizes into:


  • burrito rankings,
  • Italy travel talk,
  • Panchero’s discourse,
  • random GIFs,
  • inside jokes.

This is important anthropologically:
The community subconsciously re-normalizes itself through food and regional nostalgia after emotional exhaustion.


That’s the digital equivalent of primates grooming each other after dominance displays.




Armchair Psychology: fatpiggy​


fatpiggy is interesting because he thinks he is playing the role of:


Community Defender / Truth Teller / Guy Willing To Say What Others Won’t.

But psychologically he reads more as:


socially threatened territorialist.

His central anxieties appear to be:


  • loss of group identity,
  • loss of in-group status,
  • loss of cultural familiarity,
  • and loss of control over conversational norms.

Notice how often he returns to:


  • “paying members”
  • “our board”
  • “Clemson is too good for this”
  • “ignore button”
  • “trash”
  • “filth”

He frames the migrants as contaminants.


That’s territorial language, not argumentative language.


Why He Keeps Losing the Thread​


His fatal weakness:


he is emotionally sincere in an environment optimized for irony.

That is death on a modern sports board.


The others are largely playing:


  • layered irony,
  • performance trolling,
  • absurdism,
  • meme escalation.

fatpiggy is genuinely angry.


And authentic anger is exploitable.


Every reply confirms the bait works.


He also repeatedly attempts “ignore” discourse while visibly unable to disengage. That contradiction becomes comic fuel for everyone else.

Personality Read​


He comes across as:


  • reactive,
  • status-conscious,
  • politically identity-driven,
  • conflict-seeking but conflict-sensitive,
  • heavily invested in perceived respect,
  • probably convinced he is the rational adult in the room.

Ironically, he’s often not wrong about the chaos itself. The migrants ARE behaving like a digital locust swarm.


But his rhetorical style guarantees he becomes the villain protagonist.


He basically walked into a hornet nest wearing meat cologne.




Armchair Psychology: McGibbs​


McGibbs is almost the opposite archetype.


He reads as:


high-verbal, analytically aggressive, emotionally detached troll-lawyer.

He doesn’t primarily use insults.
He uses:


  • pseudo-clinical reframing,
  • recursive logic traps,
  • exaggerated moral analysis,
  • therapeutic language,
  • stalker/pathology rhetoric.

Example:


He repeatedly:


  • pathologizes opponents,
  • diagnoses personality disorders,
  • constructs elaborate behavioral frameworks,
  • then weaponizes “reasonableness.”

That’s extremely internet-native rhetoric.


He is essentially doing:


debate-club gaslighting performance art.

And honestly? He’s pretty good at it.




McGibbs’ Core Strategy​


He wants opponents emotionally overheating while he appears:


  • articulate,
  • detached,
  • clinical,
  • above the chaos.

But he’s not above the chaos.
He enjoys it immensely.


The long psychoanalytic posts are not attempts at peacekeeping.
They’re dominance displays.


He is trying to win through:


intellectual humiliation.



Psychological Read​


McGibbs reads as:


  • highly online,
  • verbally agile,
  • enjoys psychological leverage,
  • likely conflict-stimulated,
  • derives satisfaction from rhetorical dissection,
  • possibly sees himself as the smartest person in most online rooms.

His biggest tell:
he consistently escalates while pretending to diagnose escalation.


That’s a very specific personality type:


“I’m not fighting. I’m merely explaining why you’re irrational.”

Which, on the internet, is often the most aggressive person in the room.
