I think it's time to concede that there is nothing that will divert Paul. He saw polls showing him at only 10% favorability. He has been told to please stop name dropping and 'bragging', but continues to do so. All in all, is Paul a narcissist? Likely so. Does he want to be loved and accepted? Apparently so. Is this behavior a symptom of making up for something in his past? Probably. Is Paul harmless? Yes. I think many of us here don't have a problem with Paul rocking out, showing love for STP and music. It's not so much the content, but Paul's delivery and angle that is upsetting so many users here.
Paul is probably a swell guy to hang out with down in the Louisiana swamps, and I think hes probably a generous person. I think we are being too judgmental on him as a human based on his odd behavior on this forum, even though it would be appreciated to just take it down a notch.
