You're such a piss poor version of yourself..
You mean, "A piss poor version of his previous self?"
And, no, he is not. Gene has always given people he dislikes a hard time. For years, he has been sticking it to Bob Chick real bad. If Gene doesn't like you, steer clear. Since Bob Chick no longer posts, he is directing his anger toward PJ. But its always been there (anger), its just being redirected toward a new person.
Moral of the story:
Give Gene free supplements when he asks for them
Never piss Gene off.
