wallow in this clap trap is a mixed metaphor.
I love him. He's like those happy old people who become known for sitting by the side of a busy street and waving to passing cars. People drive by regularly and beep just to see him and get him to wave to them.
That's just like our Arpi... except he doesn't wave or anything. He just says mean things to you.

the quality of posting here still far exceeds that of other boards born of the same O&A social circle.

clap trap was defined as pretensious talk,
but also nonsense,
can you wallow in nonsense?
was the metaphor really too mixed?

was the metaphor really too mixed? in the normal usage of claptrap then , yes, the metaphor was mixed. in the strict definition then, no, it wasnt.
