Sort of like when you claimed to have comics in the Library of Congress but couldn't show any examples, Ash.

Sort of like when you claimed to know "all about" comics but so far seem to know little or nothing about them, Ash.

In other words, your story is not believable, Ash.

HTH and HAND.

Where's the lie, Donkey?

I would call Stink a "homeless pissbum" rather than a "vagrant," as vagrants travel from town to town, whereas Stink stays in one place. Does Stink dumpster dive? Many homeless people are known to.

Stink claims that he is bilking the Government out of some form of aid (although he doesn't specify what form), and is therefore able to eat like a king. Needless to say, this Government check sounds like a figment of his imagination to most us, and dumpster diving, making rat stew, etc., are probably a part of his existence.

Has he molested children? Who knows?

He was arrested for public indecency, and has been charged with contempt. He also, by your own report, is subject to periods of "blackout drunkenness" wherein he becomes prone to violent attacks (beating a retarded dwarf over the head with a metal pipe). In such a state, he could be capable of anything.

Do you understand the difference between "correcting" and "denying"?

[Rhetorical question alert.]

Everything fake Conley posted about Zod is a lie.

HTH and HAND.

Then sue him or shut the fuck up, george sulzbach.
Take legal action if you think you’ve been wronged.
If not, then shut the fuck up and crawl back under your tarp. (After you’ve had to take shelter at the Salvation Army center. With free Wi-Fi. ).
