Besides your ranting because you can't afford a decent boat,
what is your point?

Scotty

Very simple really,

He gets the attention he so sadly needs.

Ever experienced attention starved little kids doing something naughty
right in front of you whilst staring you in the eye? They know they
are going to get punished but hey, any attention is better than none.

I guess that some of these poor souls never grow up

I believe that it goes a bit further then just childish attention
getting. More of a Walter Mitty complex I'd venture.

In other words, in real life, the guy is a complete loser. No
education, no job, no face, no nothing! Ah, but on the Internet he
can become the most brilliant and reverberant personality in the
universe, albeit, under a nom de plume.

The only solution for these creatures is the Kill File as responding
to their slobbering only encourages them. "See Ma, they listen to me!"
