Flashbunny, I know sinkspur. Well, as much as anyone can know a titan wrapped in an enigma covered by a shawl while reclining in a sensory deprivation tank.
And that, flashbunny, is NOT sinkspur.
You cad.
Did I do good, sinky?
Oh, the farmer and the cowboy should be friends . . .
Yes, this is sinkspur, in a snapshot over the past day or so:
Posting a graphic saying "you're a dumbass":

Irony alert:
You cretins are now down into personal attacks

There's more, many more, over the past three weeks.
His behavior has crossed the line of "no personal attacks" many times, yet he acts like the aggrieved party. So the picture does fit.
It's also appropriate because he's resorted to just posting pictures when he thinks he's being clever, but can't respond to the substance of the post.
Whatever sinkspur was before this, he's gone off the deep end with the miers nomination. It's become personal to him, and he's breaking the rules of the board in many of his posts. Go after what the poster said, or how they said it. But when you start making personal attacks directed at other members, that's going to far. And that's what sinkspur has been doing. You can ping sinkspur if you want to let him know I'm 'posting behind his back'. But I'm done with him. My only interaction with him in the future will be hitting the abuse button when he resorts to making personal attacks. I'm sick of him debasing the board just because he can't stand people criticizing the president or this nomination.
