The guy made a silly edit (a mudkip joke) and then the same minute felt remorse and reverted himself.

Seven minutes later banned for life...

Not just that, but email was blocked, too, for no reason but to be mean.

Yeah, but mudkip is an Encyclopedia Dramatica standard spamming tool.

It is — it is a Pokemon. I thought at least one of those "template warnings".

Well, it's actually a fairly popular internet meme. 4chan, SA, ED, and quite a few other "notable" websites claim a liek of mudkips. This user vandalized, then reverted his own vandalism, which indicates to me that he was likely simply experimenting. An indef block was certainly out-of-line, and a gross violation of WP:BITE. I used to respect User:Can't sleep, clown will eat me, but I have found him to be just as bigheaded and cultminded as the rest of them. Rational thought? Fuck it. Common sense? It violates Wikipedia policies. Civil discourse? You aren't important enough.

I forget which Simpsons episode it refrences, but Bart utters it in the course of the episode, unable to sleep for fear of the clowns.
