Yes, in the sense that observing and commenting upon the idiocy of some of
the "regulars" could be interpreted as "causing trouble". Yes, agreed.

So would I, were his random interspersions of "Off-topic blah" always

Christopher (by pointing out that Kenny's remark was irrelevant), not to
contradict Kenny /per se/.
