About that racist Milo Troll: FWIW

From Milorad Buggeroff Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2000 20:30:19 GMT Subject: Zdravo Drug Tito!! Hello from Bloomington, Indiana. My name is really Mark Nuckols, but I have some fun sometimes getting newpapers here to print letters from "Milorad," usually about horseburger or something equally silly.

(and just to clarify to those unaware xyz/milorad is almost certainly one Mark Nuckols, or someone pretending to be him, whose most notable contributions to society are hufu and a near religious devotion to trolling...he even trolls the reviews on Amazon! SteveB I liked your theory but I think mine is more accurate. And I know I shouldn't feed the troll, but come on this guy is hilarious.)

Hufu was touted as "the healthy human flesh alternative" for "cannibals who want to quit", as well as a product for anthropology students studying cannibalism. According to its website, hufu is also "a great convenience food for cannibals. No more Friday night hunting raids! Stay home and enjoy the good healthy taste of hufu."

Mark Nuckols (founder and CEO of Hufu, LLC)—then a student at Tuck School of Business—claimed that the concept of Hufu occurred to him when he ate a tofurkey sandwich while reading "Good To Eat: Riddles of Food and Culture", a book on cannibalism by anthropologist Marvin Harris. [1]

Google is your friend.

You sure you have the right Mark Nuckols? This one sounds like the background is closer to the troll in here:

Fits like a glove.

That Mark Nuckols has no publications listed on his faculty web page. Too busy trolling to write anything, I guess.

Christopher, is something wrong within your third blockquote? The links therein come up as linked to tpm and don't go anywhere.

So Milo is from Bloomington. IU has a fab Slavic/Middle East lang. dept.

I always guessed he was not stupid. This confirms my suspicions about another troll that comes through here.

I think his taste in Anthropology is excremental. Harris is just a jump from Diamond. I know that generally intelligent people go nuts about both, but Melanesianists don't much care for either.

Thanks for the info.

Excuse my careless HTML. Those links were to other Wikipedia articles.

I must add that Liberal_Elite's find above does fit the profile of our troll considerably better than the Hufu gentleman. I honestly must admit to egg on my face here. Your IU Slavish Studies Dept. observation also confirms Liberal_Elite's find.

So I'm watching The Daily Show, my nightly ritual....and Samantha Bee is interviewing a guy named Mark Nuckols. Hmmm, I think to myself, I know that name....there was a chump in my 1st year law school class at Indiana University named Mark Nuckols. He wore the exact same green shorts that looked like an old faded bathing suit every day the entire first semester. Then it got cold and he wore the exact same faded baggy jeans every day in the winter. Additionally, he also had a strangely quiet, stunningly beautiful Russian wife...also a member of our 1L class. She spoke little English, and had already obtained a law degree in Russia. Of course, Nuckols was immediately coined "mail order." He was also one of those annoyingly verbose classmates who feels the need to prove exactly how many cases he actually read and briefed, and offered his input on every topic the professors raised. I attribute my B- in Contracts to the factor of being constantly distracted by his annoying behaviors just across the room.

In addition to Indiana, he attended Tuck for his MBA and has family ties to UVA. What did he say this time?

What kind of "family ties" does he have to UVA?

What did he say this time?

Apparently, he appears on TPM threads as Milo or Mila or Milorad and spews vile racist stuff.

His father was a professor at UVA.

The Tuck School of Business???????????????????????????

ROFLMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
