interesting idea… but what do suits have to do with it?

Nothing, but Bootyhole told me he had an idea for this name, so I went with that..

We want a Clbumbuildr.

Well, obviously.

If this ever happens I request a clbum change to that clbum.

I dunno. I think something along that line. Like the Know-it-all. Except it’s people that think they know more about everyone else but are generally wrong. Like correcting/arguing with professors.

Similar with anime freaks that take a Japanese language course so they hope they can translate manga (read: hentai seiyoku).

Now that i think about it, this would more along the lines of The Smart Aleck.

Though if that were the case, the secondary stat would have to be Smugness.

Yes, but we need clbumes that seem more prominent on the intarwebs. I don’t encounter Smart Alecs often. I do however come across “artists” and sometime “furries”.

Really? I’m up to my eyeballs in Smart Alecs on the internet, but I never come across “artists” or “furries”.

I think if any clbum gets added to the game at this point, it ought to be something along these lines. In the real world internet, “Pedantry” is a very important aspect of trolling (all of the best trolls I know are upstanding pedants), and this goes wholly underrepresented. I mean, not everybody who goes out of their way to correct your grammar and spelling on the internet does it because they have no social skills. Some people do it because they’re bumholes, and they know it ****es you off, and it ****es you off in a way that not only fails to embarrbum them, but actually casts them in a good light in the view of some other posters; so it’s a win-win. Someone who will point by point answer an argument via multiquote, and drag an entire forum down the rabbit hole of a three hour discursion on the difference between “chile” and “chili”, touching on culinary anthropology, linguistic standards for transliteration, the true history of the American west, philosophy of etymology, and ethnobotany.

We have clbumes that do their thing via jackbumery (trolls, Hackers), dramatic histrionics (Emos, Camgirls), and idiocy (Permanoobs, Re-Res), but there are no true pedants in the game, and this needs addressing. Unlike things like furries who are really generally just some subset or linear combination of the other clbumes, the Pedant is very much unique in his or her behavior.

True, although I keep picture what the artist would look like alongside the picryres we have of the hacker and troll. For some reason it just looks believable. With the beret and goatee in a beatnik style. Wearing a purple shirt with black slacks. I just picture it so well.

Just curious… why did he want to call it “The Suit”.
