Default FPN Idiot of the Day: SamCapote!

from the FPN idiot of the day:
I love the Baystate Blue color, but I would NEVER have dreamed that
any ink would permanently stain a plastic used in a fountain pen. As a
relative novice in this hobby, I could have used dark color pen if I
had been warned. I don't know if all inks stain plastics like this,
but I have tried to remove these stains with water...rinsing, rubbing
with wet towel, and even Isopropyl rubbing alcohol on a q-tip. It will
not come off, and this makes me angry. I took a digital photo to show
what I mean.

Further along in the thread, he whines that his fake marble bathroom
sink was "permanently stained" and then he explains how his wife
removed the permanent stain. In case anybody thinks I'm being unfair
in calling this guy an idiot, let's look at that post, in the same
thread.

begin quote
One other warning, I had a few drops while starting to rinse out pen
go into a bathroom sink that is made of that fake marble, and it
permanently stained the sink, whereas no other bulletproof ink has
done that. It did come out with some Soft Scrub with bleach cleanser
and elbow grease before the wife saw it. Letting the Soft Scrub with
bleach sit on stain for a minute did not remove it. It required
several minutes of hard scrubbing, so it was more the abrasion that
ground it away, not the bleach.
end quote


This dip**** carries on for much longer in this thread, displaying his
rank stupidity as well as his emotional as he whines on and on and on
and on about how his safari was stained, drawing great sympathy from
his fellow FPNers.

Of course, water and a little bleach would have removed the stain, but
the poster says later in the thread that he has children in his house,
so, therefore he cannot have bleach in his house. (It's dangerous to
children. Yeah, really--that's what he says. I am not making this
up.)

This guy is in the running for FPN Idiot of the Year, the Decade, and
perhaps the century.

What is the difference between whining and constructive criticism? I
guess for you even constructive criticism is "whining".

So one of FPN's illustrious moderators has showed up to show his rank
ignorance.

Where does one find a mirror these days? Drunken Lord's seems to be clouded
by irony.

Every time I see an inexpensive vintage pen that's in good repair, I think of Frank. His
preference in pens and my own had almost no overlap, but I still appreciated his participation.

Thats fine, but telling everyone you are going to killfile someone is
just lame.

Why don't you go join some of your fellow FPN ****nuts and put some
ink and eggs in the microwave.

You know, the FPN moderators and administrators are doing a disservice
to the FPN community in not moderating that horse**** because who
knows how many FPN'ers have now put ink in their microwaves as a
result of getting such a bright idea from that FPN idiot.

Oh, and to save you the typing, Mr. Drunken Troll, I do not participate
at FPN. You'll have to think up some other stupid insult for me.


Lovely weather here in your killfile.

So what is your defense of the rank stupidity of the moderators and
the posters of FPN?

Did you microwave any ink?
