I kind of like the name gbaji, even though I often spell it wrong. It's unique. Also, I feel a bit of connectedness with gjabi cuz he played EQ too, and I think he played a Paladin too.
I've always been pretty miserly with my written words, so I am bewilderingly awestruck by his carefree, excessive use of his keyboard.

He has staying power. He sticks up for unpopular positions. He's pro-choice. He does not resort to name calling as much as most of us do. He used to (perhaps still does) play tabletop role playing games.
He's also an cUnt

He doesn't smell too bad, considering.
In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

He occasionally has me questioning my point of view, but then he comes up with something so unrealistic, I realize I was right all along. Point is, he makes me reevaluate things sometimes.
Also, he makes me appreciate clarity.

Nope, it's from a role playing game. It's as "unique" as Eragon.
To my knowledge he's never raped a child, then cut said child up with a chainsaw, gathered the little bits together, and forced them through a juicer and drunk the frothy red resulting beverage with a celery stick. Of course, I can't prove it didn't happen, but I'm inclined to give him the benefit of the doubt there.

Something nice about gbaji
I am not prepared to state anything, as i feel the question is politicly motivated and asked in such a way as to expose unfair partisan preferences.
"If you have selfish, ignorant citizens, you're gonna get selfish, ignorant leaders". Carlin.
I can't answer until gbaji makes some concessions and compromises. I don't want to look weak.

It's also, apparently, some obscure village in a random foreign country. Which makes it as relevant as mine.

The correct word is "obscure". I never intended to come up with a truly unique name, but rather one that most people would not know. It's also a slight inside joke since Gbaji was known as "The Deceiver", but in fact just told unpopular truths. I felt it was appropriate to my posting style...

He almost never gets ****** or personal which is impressive considering how vilified he is.
He is conservative while being almost totally secular; I simply don't run into that much where I live.

Also, despite how arduous his posts are sometimes, and despite how much I don't like reading them, I appreciate the efforts he goes to in order to try to make his point.

Gbaji's into bondage.
The Goddess holds a handsome but snarling deity with one hand holding his wrists, her foot standing on both of his, stretching him.

"The Rich are there to take all of the money & pay none of the taxes, the middle class is there to do all the work and pay all the taxes, and the poor are there to scare the crap out of the middle class." -George Carlin
He's obstinate, one-sided, single-minded, politically motivated for all the wrong reasons (In my fair and honest opinion) armed with acerbic responses that cut like a knife made from lemon and powdered in salt, with a matter-o-factly "My Way or the Highway" tone that's admittedly difficult to tolerate. Which is tough because I've done nothing but lurk here on two accounts since the start of FFXI some six years ago. gbaji practically stands for everything I do not and I respect him for it.
The man has truthiness.
A conviction that comes from the gut that refuses to change not out of spite, but out of sheer personal belief. Frankly, I'll disagree with him (silently) almost every time, but I shan't disagree that in gbaji beats the heart of an American.

He's not Varus.
Some people are like slinkies, they aren't really good for anything, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.

He uses words like a dysentery-sufferer uses Charmin - it's all quantity, driving home an ill-conceived point with ever-more outlandish and baseless proaganda, and repeating the same idiocy with a florid range of nouns, adjectives and adverbs, thrown together randomly like a bad stir-fry.
At some stage he learned the phrases "Ad Hominem" and "Straw Man" and remains clueless about their appropriate usage. In terms of the English language, he reminds me of a music-nerd who's memorised the score but never heard the song.
On the odd, rare occasion he will stumble upon an accurate, valid point ('100 Monkeys writing Hamlet' syndrome, maybe)
but will then dilute it in lexicograpohical saline.
I wish we had a wider spectrum of political representation here - We have ToUtem who can eloquently interpret a Republican perspective and clarify a justification. But by-and-large, the Right wing perspective is left to gbaji, and it's the poorer for it. He genuinely reminds me of Dracoid in troll mode - defending the indefensible dogmatically, without truly understanding context, implications or provenance.
This image always reminds me of gbaji's posts. . .
. . . except unlike this image, the nail is rarely hit on the head, never mind driven home.
But on topic (something 'nice'), no matter how far he backs himself into a corner, mangles language until even he has lost any sense of what he means, and misses the fundamental tenets of counter-arguments, I can rarely remembering him using the word "Phlariant", which has to be a good thing, right?

Just as Planned.
He does not make me want correct his spelling or grammar.
On these boards, that is a rare gift.

Yea, a prime reason as to why people should never correct someone else's grammar/spelling unless they've seen that specific person do it repeatedly.
