Now it's getting embarrassing and kind of sad:

For what's worth, a member of the Mister Scratch Collective has now "reviewed" my little essay on "Apologetics by the Numbers" on the board where s/he and other members of the Collective, along with certain associates, track and deride this board and mock those who post here.

S/he promises that it will soon be up on the blog that s/he (or some other member of the Mister Scratch Collective) maintains as part of his/her on-going tracking of and commentary on this board, along with the essay on my cowardly refusal to debate Mr. Bob McCue, Esq., that s/he (or some other, interchangeable, member of the Collective) completed earlier today.

The Collective is as busy, these days, as a beehive.


Is it just me, or is it just a tad ironic that Dr. Peterson chides this board for tracking MADB, deriding it, and mocking the posters at the same time he's posted an essay wherein he tracks another board (RfM), derides it, and mocks it posters?

I do like Dr. Peterson, but I don't think this kind of stuff makes him look good.

Gives the effect of a dog chasing it's own tail, doesn't it?

Wow, Bond. That's so hilarious and appropriate.

I really hope DCP notices it and adds a remark on one of his many anti-Scratch MAD blogs. Maybe someone who isn't suspended can PM him and solicit a comment.

This cannot possibly represent the "Mr. Scratch Collective." Unless one considers the possibility that its numbers have been artificially exaggerated by means of some clever CGI.

Here is the actual Mr. Scratch Collective. "The Dude" would be present, but he was off on a beer run when the photo was taken.

Greetings Opie,

Everyone knows Polygamy Porter makes beer runs. The Dude makes other contributions to the MD party tray.

No, harmony,

I'm afraid you are mistaken. That's definitely a photo of a Union meeting in Jersey when I was shop steward. That's me on the left...in the overalls.

Your comments killin me, when I actually go to the meetings, theres guys there that look just like that.

I have to argue with Scratch though, DCP can't be the Krispe Kreme King, that guy on the left ain't lettin anybody anywhere near the doughnuts.
