It's definitely past the midway mark. Somewhere in Yellow Alert range. There is the carefully-constructed and painfully obvious constructed persona, the incoherence, the multiple posts, the bad spelling, the button-pushing. All prime Rambosities. If his volume of posts picks up I'll go into Red Alert, and if he gets voluminous AND abrasive then I'd signal a Double Red Alert and recommend jettisoning the Ion Pod.
I've already gotten in trouble by Confed on a thread by giving this boy a break. I can't take that chance again, so I hope this thread doesn't lead into the same place.
OoE - I thought you knew he was in Canada. He's all yours sweetie. :)

Jettison the Ion Pod?? But..but...I just installed a whole new frammis!
“He was the most prodigious personification of all human inferiorities. He was an utterly incapable, unadapted, irresponsible, psychopathic personality, full of empty, infantile fantasies, but cursed with the keen intuition of a rat or a guttersnipe. He represented the shadow, the inferior part of everybody’s personality, in an overwhelming degree, and this was another reason why they fell for him.”
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "My ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."- Isaac Asimov
I think that phrase is a bit older than R. Lee Ermey ;)
(Although I'll plead guilty to being a big fan myself )
