Well, I'm off to eat dinner with German savages. 

Freeky, if Marana catches fire, it's the 4th Reich.  Take the kid and flee into the Catalinas.  You can fight the javalinas for scraps of dead hiker.

Gotcha.  Good luck, Roger.

I guess what I'm saying is I don't think I get a fair shake cuz it seems like I get a knee jerk "FUCK YUO" response from every post over shit I posted years ago.

Cannot a man change?

Sure. Post a thread about something interesting. That's a start.

I will try, but it is difficult when this place is my "go to place" for interesting.

Also, I apologize for posting snarky one liners to other threads. Humor is my coping mechanism.

Do less coping and more conversing. Your method of coping is annoying.

Humor's my coping mechanism too. Difference is, people get my jokes.

Kicking puppies is mine. But the owners of the puppies always get mad. It's because Roger is in a position of power.

Apparently not.

More to the point: That "FUCK YUO" response is something that will take time to dissipate. Bear in mind that if one or two people shit on you in a thread, that does not necessarily reflect the attitudes of everyone on the forum, so be very careful not to think of it in that manner.

It is, in fact, possible to go from being an unlikeable turdburglar to a decently-liked member on this forum. It's happened loads of times. However, the process does not involve making excuses for one's past behavior, nor does it involve requesting that the forum be nice to you for a little bit in exchange for a promise of being more interesting.

It also doesn't involve implying that one's drug and alcohol abuse is due to the economy when the problem apparently stretches back before the economy tanked.

ETA: id est, appeal to pity, especially where pity is not warranted, doesn't usually work. It's a cop out.

Fair enough.  Thanks for listening, I will attempt to find a proper keyboard and respond appropriately in the near future

Before bed, I did a little self justifying analysis and noted the following:

I have 15 posts in this thread
Twid has 7
Nigel has 7
Roger has 27
Babby has 8
Everyone else posted once.
Am I paranoid to think roger has special interest in me?

Yes. I've noticed one thing in my 1.something years here.

Everyone who has some sort of weirdness that bothers several people consistently single out Roger for said problem, even though the problem lies specifically with the poster being piled on. I'd post that many times if I were him too. I'd be fucking sick of it.

The fact that you counted indicates you have a special interest in him.

[Nephew Twiddleton]

You're also ignoring the fact that you specifically singled him out in the second post of this thread before anyone else had the chance to respond.

This.

This.

And this.  I know this is thissing my own post by proxy, but the point needs to be hammered home.

If you think Roger's after you, chances are, you're after him.

Roger's force of personality + his admin status + his usual rate of posting = MIND LAZORS.



your mind = blown

I'd like to come back with a witty comment, but recent personal events have kinda tapped me out on that and I can only shake my head at a repetition of a theme via yet another cabbage poster.

[Telarus]

Oh great, another truck load of bees.
