Flint is......Always Right, Right?

Another problem -- if you don't label humor as such, you run the risk of looking completely demented. For proof, read anything by Hawk (now posting as coup2k). Yes, it's hilarious. But is it this intentional?

Is this true?

Is hawk the infamous coup2k, if so, how do you know?

I would say that Flint is in error. Coup2k, to the best of my recollection, has typed few, if any, of the foul words that were Hawk's trademark.

I must agree with Flint on this one. Hawk (AKA Coup2K), while rarely on the side of clear thinking has often demonstrated an ability to write in a very readable style. The Hawkster has re-occurring bouts of penis envy that coincide with his cuss word laden, immature tantrums. Certain posters seem to bring out the best in our old Hawk, like ‘cin’ for example (or most females in general). My guess is that Hawk has not enjoyed much luck with the fairer sex and takes out those frustrations on occasion.

It is surely only a matter of time before Coup2K slips into remission and reveals his true self.

I wasn't judging by the vocabulary, but by the "thinking" exhibited. If this isn't Hawk, it's someone for whom starting with wacky conclusions and fabricating data to fit is also second nature. Also an exact match is the violent and mindless antipathy toward even the slightest reflection, consistency, or insight. And be honest -- who would want to be a hawk clone? Most of us outgrew that before puberty.

Could be Ken Decker.

Flint was just trying to get Coup2K's goat. Also, in Flint's universe, this passes as a funny joke, full of subtle nuance and trenchant wit. Sometimes Flint's humor would be more decipherable if he used subtitles.
