However, IMO, the writing style is reminiscent of a fairly recent (last 90-120 days) poster (under different log-in names). It's just so difficult to disguise your voice; it's why Hemingway and Faulkner and McMurtry and Conroy and LeHane all sound completely different, even if they use the same lexicon at times.

I know what you're saying but it definitely isn't the same poster. Although they are similarly nonsensical, there are at least three specific style details that mark a certain writers' work. I'm not going to go into any details, but the "recruitment" poster is not the same person who has been responsible for some other recent threads.

The twin recruitment story was 100% fake. NONE of the bountiful details matched up to anything that occured in real life.

Ah, indeed, I see. Thanks for picking up what I was trying to say, and thanks for your insight.

Now if we could get another Chuck Norris or Barbie's_Rush to post... I'm just sayin'

It only let me vote once overall. I could vote for multiple options though, but I just put the who cares one.
