Here's a hilarious update: Lysergic, not content with being a clock truther, now believes the Steele memo about Trump was faked by 4chan.  Or at least the golden shower part.  Despite the complete date disparity, and the fact that Steele was relying on Russian informants, not casually scoping out the latest /pol/ bullshit.

You know that kid who brought his clock into school and got arrested for it?  People who believe he did it on purpose and for attention and/or he didn't build the clock himself.

Basically, it's an excuse to be racist.

It was hilarious - in a terrible way - when Clock Truthers overran Reddit for like a month straight.  They were so blatantly envious of him it was ridiculous.

All those poor, unrecognised child geniuses of Reddit.  I cri evrytiem

I loved how the naysayers were all conflicted between whether a clock is super easy to build and therefore unimpressive, and whether a clock is too hard for a kid that age to build and therefore someone made it for him. They just could not get their shit together; all they knew was that there had to be SOME excuse for hating on the kid.

Apparently some weird shit may be going down outside the J. Edgar Hoover building?  I'm seeing some suspiciously vague tweets about it.

Was it ever conclusively determined if he built a clock, or just took one out of it's shell, and put it in a pencil box?

Same thing with the pyramids.  Did the Egyptians really build them, or did they just take a mountain and stick it in a pencil box?

To be fair, this is the Open Bar.

Which is, also to be fair, not usually home to the degree of dick-waving I expect to see everywhere else on Peedee.

The dick-waving quotient increases by about 748% any time Thwack decides to grace us with his presence. He's still PeeDee-ing like it's 2006.

Does it matter in the fucking slightest? Usually when someone "builds a clock", they buy a pre-made clockwork and put it in something that will serve as a clock face. This is functionally almost exactly the same as taking a clockwork out of one clock face and putting it in another. Almost nobody builds clockworks from scratch anymore; sort of like how very few of the people who build guns actually machine any of their own parts.

Who is Lysergic?  :?

A PDer of times gone by. We watched him undergo various stages of meth addiction, PUA addiction, libertarian fuckery, and conspiracy theories, and as a result of making a complete tool of himself over and over and over, he hates us.

What can I say, sometimes elements of times past should return. There is a lot to be said for not taking yourself too seriously, and there are some here that really need to remember that.
