Because I don't have scabs to pick and I now need reading glasses to
pull the wings off flies?

JAX averages about two posts a month of average lucidity that
demonstrates he isn't a Speedo-wearing shut-in with delusions of
boating, or at least at one time wasn't. The rest of the time the
static overwhelms the signal, and you nailed his slightly dyslexic
M.O. exactly.

It's instructive to see real-life examples of pathology, and JAX vs.
boating newsgroup posters is like participating in an endless Stanley
Milgram experiment: it's amazing how a cadre of six or so posters will
continue to up the voltage well past the pain threshold because JAX
goads them into a pretense of debate.

It's funny if you let it be, like a Bill Hicks routine.
