Naaa, that was me.

And we prefer to be called "thaumaturge."

For those that don't know, I didn't: Thaumaturge is a Greek word meaning a
person who works miracles. I don't think Zoom has ever claimed that, though
it would explain his resume.

If we're being literal, it's from the Greek thaumatourgos - thaumat-,
wonder + ergon, work; one who works wonders. A little rougher
translation is magician, or sorcerer.

Calling someone a "satinist priest" is like calling them a Mic or a
Spic. Not just crudely insulting, but hopelessly out of date.- Hide quoted text -

Grade School playground...
