Good to hear your thoughts on this, Causticus (apologies for being rather late to the party! ;).
BAP is such a baffling phenomenon - he refers to himself as primarily a "humourist", and I think this is the only way I can really relate to his output. His aphorisms and anecdotes can be hilarious, but I've never bothered to read BAM, and I tend to treat his corner of the internet with some caution. His homoeroticism is often passed off as an ironic joke by his followers; he flips from using anti-gay slurs one minute to admitting to homosexual and even pederastic inclinations the next, all the while maintaining a weird, detached, 4chan sense of humour.
Something tells me he's probably quite a troubled man in real life.
