It is quite long but brown thumb is (was) an uber lag donator. He describes his reasoning quite well in the thread. Plus it is just a great thread, probably my favorite thread ever.
Here is how the very long thread begins:

I am BrownThumb from UB, BigBet, AbsolutePoker, and many other sites. Anyone that has played with me knows I am a total jackass, but I have a lot of fun.
I raise almost every hand preflop, and most hands postflop. For some reason, this irritates many players. It shouldn't because I always lose my money (even after the times I run $50.00 up to $1,500). I always lose.
