So it has been commented elsewhere that the moderator likely said "cunt" as a way to curse having spilled water on himself after laughing, as opposed to calling Doolan that. While I think I am somewhat familiar with British slang, I am unsure whether that is likely or not. Anyone care to opine? If true, that makes Doolan look even more petty.

Yeah, that's basically it (Source: Am British, and I swear profusely at minor inconveniences). Doolan was stomping his feet earlier in the debate because the mod dared question him. He was looking for an excuse. Plus, the guy is currently going on a mass-banning spree on Twitter. He's a wet towel.

Thanks. I can generally follow along pretty well for a yank but was not quite familiar with using "cunt" as a cuss word when you spill something or make a mistake, efx. I wonder if fights break out from that sort of misunderstanding...
