My first impulse here was to fold; it was my second impulse (otherwise known as "thinking it over") that made me call.

If you don't make at least an occasional thin call like that against a known aggressive player, you're going to let them run all over you... that's the bottom line as far as I'm concerned. If I sat at a table with someone like Ripptyde I'd have to make a call like this every hour (at least) just to keep all my chips out of his stack.
