Au contraire, my little ginger chum. From the tone of Hog's recent
"non-troll" trolls and all the other nonsense, I'd think he'd be ideally

You also are suggesting I'm not a consumer. Which of course I am, in
spades. And a tight one who likes a nice bargain.

Of course when it comes to selling my goods and services I'm an utter
hypocrite.
