Project Ignore, which could be summed up as:
'Sorry, there are no valid Responses for me to choose from.'
Good idea, Connery
'Sorry, there are no valid Responses for me to choose from.'
so, error-free silent response - a smother for moody havoc
I've been thinking of suggesting a shunning for a while now, but I've been enjoying psimagus's anagram retorts too much.
OK. we're now avenging cyber-Amish gang? Just ignore tiniest, tough buffoon until she abates sniping her venom. Amusing!
Is anyone selling something like that at www.cafepress.com?
Well, there's a business opportunity for someone - with a logo of a smiley face wearing a black hat perhaps?

Sounds good to me. Maybe if we pretend the problem doesn't exist for long enough, it will go away.

Shunning, or ostracism, is actually one of the oldest social methods of dealing with someone who isn't following the rules. Acting as if the person does not exist and completely excluding them from all interactions really does eventually stop their disruptiveness.

Even without the anagram, I would applaud "cyber-Amish gang". That would look good a a t-shirt. Is anyone selling something like that at www.cafepress.com?

An anagram is a word made up of the letters from a different word, so "recap" is an anagram of 'pacer', for instance.
(my example is also a word that is a different word spelled backwards, but I forget what you call those...)
Anyway, you weren't talking to me, so I'll hush up now

Palindrome.
"I understand this is Bolton."
"Yeah."
"But you told me it was Ipswitch!"
"It was a pun."
"A pun?!?"
"No, not a pun... what's that other thing, where the words the same forwards as backwards?"
"A palindrome?"
"Yeah, that."
"But a palindrome for Bolton would be Notlob!"
