$4 NL HE 6-max: Good call or terrible idea?

(There was no 2NL option on the form, sorry!)
So...what would you do here? I didn't put PT stats in the fields because I only had about 25 hands on the guy, but he was pretty aggressive most hands.

Looking back I shouldn't have been in this hand at all, I know. But I want to know if the shove was the right move there.

Usually after 25 hands I realize I've got a total LAG to my direct left I'll just leave the table. Too hard to play against. You'll never get to steal the blinds either.

As for the hand I would fold PF but if you're gonna play it then raise 3x or 4x. Never open limp.

So you want to know if calling the shove was good? Well, is this a hand you feel like committing your whole stack to? Maybe someone else can explain this part a little better...

Never open limp.
If you don't read anything else in this thread, read this. Stop open limping.

I refuse to post any advice other than "stop open limping" when players post a hand history where they've open limped. Because all that other advice pales in importance to the "stop ****ing limping" advice.

dont min raise without reads
dont call a crazy shove without extremely sick reads

Yeah, ya'll are right on all counts.

Looking at this with fresh eyes, I think I was high on crack for even playing this hand. I don't know what I could have been on that made me call that. What was I hoping to accomplish? What could I beat? Q9? Q2? Makes no sense.

Thanks, all.
