Go check the recent comments. You’ll see a bunch by some guy calling himself Ted Dymski. You’ll notice that most of them are on old posts. You’ll also see that Ted doesn’t get it. He seems to have no concept of time or at least doesn’t understand what the dates next to posts or comments mean. He also doesn’t get sarcasm. Satire is beyond him.
So, what I wonder is do we mock him or do we ignore him? Or is he a genius along the lines of Andy Kaufman?
If we mock him, we may be bullying someone who really isn’t all that smart, although I suspect this isn’t really the case, since his spelling seems to be spot on. Most stupid people can’t spell worth a darn, so I’m thinking Ted Dymski isn’t a dumbski.
So, is he just a troll? I’m kinda thinking so, but I could be falling for his act. Maybe he is somebody’s Tony Clifton.
I’m really not sure. I’m still leaning towards someone who just doesn’t get it. I mean, how else do you explain his response to a comment about Lurch from the Addams Family being based on John Kerry? Go read the comment and Ted’s response.
So, since he may be a latter-day Andy Kaufman, and since Saturday Night Live is now even less funny than IMAO, I’ll play Lorne Michaels and ask what should we do about Ted?

Don’t vote to mock him unless you actually go mock him. Let’s keep this thing above board and back up our vote with actions.
