About me: These ought to give you an insight about me:

"I think life should be more like tv. I think all of life's problems ought to be solved in 30 minutes with simple homilies, don't you? I think weight and oral hygiene ought to be our biggest concerns. I think we should all have powerful, high-paying jobs, and everyone should drive fancy sports cars. All our desires should be instantly gratified. Women should always wear tight clothes, and men should carry powerful handguns. Life overall should be more glamorous, thrill-packed, and filled with applause, don't you think?"

"I'm a simple man with complex tastes."

"I'm a genius, but I'm a misunderstood genius."
"What's misunderstood?"
"Nobody thinks I'm a genius."

"Life's disappointments are harder to take when you don't know any swear words."

"The world bores you when you're cool."

"I try to make everyone's day a little more surreal."

"Nobody asks me how things oughta be! I've got tons of ideas!"

"I like maxims that don't encourage behavior modification."

"Reality continues to ruin my life."

"I’ve got plenty of common sense…. I just choose to ignore it."

"The problem with you, Hobbes, is you're always at a loss for words." (Calvin)
"I've found that saves many a friendship." (Hobbes)

"It's not the pace of life I mind. It's the sudden stop at the end." (Hobbes)

"There aren’t very many heroes these days. Who is out there to inspire us with a personal example of virtue and self-sacrifice in the name of a higher good? Who can we look up to? Business Leaders? Sports Figures? Politicians? Celebrities? Heck, we’re lucky if they don’t end up in prison! As usual, the hero business is up to me!"


All taken from Calvin and Hobbes comic strips. Thank you, Bill Watterson!



COAT
COAT - Cooperative Of Anti Trolls - Showing trolls the meaning of the word "backfire!"
If you wish to become a COAT, just let one of us know.


The Coats' peaceful mission is to help warm Answerbag with positivity and friendship.

We do this by trying to help others that have been trolled* to regain lost points and by offering other support to ABers such as a kind word or an ear to listen.
We are not here to manipulate the points system; this is not our purpose. We are not a group that has come together to bring one another AB status and fame. We very often act anonymously, quietly slipping in to replace lost points while we continue enjoying the questions, answers and conversation that brought us here.
We, as a group, do not engage in downrate missions even on trolls; we believe this to be counter productive of our peaceful mission to spread positivity and friendship.
*Trolling is defined by us as multiple downrates on a single person by usually a single person for no apparent reason other than hate, spite or just meanness.
Downrates on one or two questions/answers for a possible legitimate reason does not constitute trolling.

Help keep the troll population down . . .
On of our keys in dealing with trolls is advising everyone that is attacked not to say anything at all about it on site.
First, inform AB admin or a CL, then, just drop a Coat an email and we generally set project backfire into action silently.
We do this because trolls thrive off of the trouble that they can stir up; the more they can stir up, the more they will troll, so we try not to give them the satisfaction. This way, they don't get their kicks, get frustrated and try picking on someone else or going off the site completely.
