Bye bye, anonymous commenters.
Prodded by thwap's suggestion in a recent comment, I'm cutting off access to anonymous commenters on this blog. More than once, I emphasized that I had no problem with anonymous commenters, but if you planned on getting involved in an extended discussion, I expected you to at least give yourself a handle of some kind so we could tell you apart.
Sadly, the last couple days have seen an infestation of nameless nimrods who spewed countless comments all over the place without making the least effort to distinguish themselves from the other nameless nimrods.
You were warned. More than once. Deal with it.

appreciated.
But, what if your handle really is Anonymous?
Then there's only one of you and there won't be any confusion.
Clever. I like it.
Sounds fair, I guess.
So who are you CC?
He's Canadian Cynic. You're anonymous. I'm thwap.
geddit?
Sure, it's simple. We're all the same, then. None of our real names is known. The dictionary definition of anonymity. Thwap, as usual, you are a light unto the benighted masses.
What? You mean again? Why didn't you just stick to your previous cutting off of anonymous commenters?
jason? jason who?
You mean we're limited to only a slim selection of cretins now?
However shall I manage?
Anyway, the anonymii were well-known miscreants, so it's no loss. We all know what Rightwing Troll #4385 will say even before he comments.
Ok, start the screeching,...
But you're an Anonynous Blogger,...
You're just trying to limit free speech,...
You just want an echo chamber where opposing views are silenced by leftwing moonbattery communist socialist,....
Oh, look, it has already started,... never mind ;-)
Hi everybody, I'm Zorpheous ;-)

Likewise Leftwing Troll, Ti-Guy.

Ti, you are a miscreant

I hardly call that trolling.
Heavens to Betsy, the Right is getting rather fragile and brittle these days, isn't it?
...a stint in the Army would toughen them up, that's for sure.

CC, following your post: "Is this story for real? Part 3: The Kate McMillon edition" is found this comment:

Maybe, CC, if you would eliminate the "Anonymous" option, this blog might return to normal.

I — like — I — I — I thought of it too!
Halle-fucking-lujah!
It is still going to be days before the troll stench clears...
Let's speak to the stupidity of the anonymous posters who can't seem to grasp the concept of avatars and pseudonyms. You would think that they want to keep the debate/argument/screaming confused by not taking on a pseudonym. Surely that is something only done by progressives? As I recall, a recent commenter on Master Alchemist Erl's blog said that lefties will never stand up and be counted, that they will run for the shadows the first chance they get. And that is Grandpa Coulter common sense right there.
Oooh! They were warned!
So scary.
ahhhh....so quiet...
