Exactly what TJ would say if he was claiming not to be TJ! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howard 128 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 It's also exactly what someone who isn't TJ would say if some obsessed mentalists kept calling them TJ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Actually this is what he said. As you can see it's still there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Someone else used to use “mentalist”. Can’t remember who, though. IIRC it was TJ, llap, Jack Carter, Pierrot Lunaire and TSM. Some very different posters, but some interesting multiple personas.

One explanation for the popular use of the word is that there are in fact a bunch of mentalists here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the stinking enigma 11,177 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I always thought the use of the word mentalist was a nod to alan partridge. I see no harm in it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Declan 7,221 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 It is interesting to see who used it often prior to this thread though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Howard 128 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 No, it's really not that interesting. It's a very common phrase used by people all over the English-speaking world. I suggest you get out more and find some perspective. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
