Your Own Personal Fidel Castro™

[Scribbly]

I want to say that I appreciate the clarification given by people who have specifically mentioned "Roger and Nigel" in reference to "the problem". That said, three or four instances of that in a week, and it starts to take on a life of its own, as evidenced by the couple of douchebags with pre-existing chips on their shoulders attempting to use that as a rallying point.

So if you don't actually have a grudge against either one of us, I sure would appreciate it if you wouldn't use "Roger and Nigel" as a touchstone for everything that's wrong with the forum, unless you actually do want one or both of us to stop posting/go away.

Great.  But I do still think the amped-up aggression that pops up in this place is still a problem.  No, I don't think it is limited to you two at all.  It is definitely something the whole board community could work on, I think.  This stuff with Khore is a good example where many cooks are stirring the pot.

Just stop replying to the guy if he pisses you off that much.  Stop looking for a reason to go nuclear on him.  It only drags the drama out and definitely is a damper on this forum having any kind of productive conversations or discourse.  I mean, we had a couple of good conversations going and then "holy fuck what did he say?!?!?"

Can't we all just relax and ease up a bit?  

The atmosphere today has been pretty relaxed and great.

Maybe if we stop picking at the scab, it'll heal.

There's precisely one (1) person stirring that pot.

Pretty sure it's Khore.

But we're doin' it wrong. 

[AFK]

Okay, nevermind.  As you were.

No, no, you're quite correct.  One new and blatant troll is of greater worth than all existing members.

It's absolutely impossible that he is deliberately stirring shit.  The only viable solution is that we're all picking on the poor little darling, like the bastards that we are.

[AFK]

Nope, I was wrong.  Chalk it up to indigestion.

I'm strangely comfortable with that. The only thing that bugs about the internet is you don't get to see the fuckhead break down in tears or start throwing punches which happens IRL and can't be recommended enough.

Oh, no argument there.

But you and I are bad people in a world full of plaster saints.

Actually, I think it's perfectly reasonable to assume the worst when a particularly nasty insult you are familiar with is thrown out in a language that you don't speak well. Turns out it was part of a colloquial phrase in Spanish Spanish that doesn't exist in Latin American Spanish, and not an insult after all, but that's slightly beside the point. And I wouldn't call those conversations "good". In any sense. They were over before that happened, anyway.

Just sayin'.

I am distrbed, but oddly aroused. TGRR has a GREAT ass, there.

RWHN can't stop picking. It's what he does.

[AFK]

No, I'm just tired of all the dogpiles, but like I said, I was wrong so let's just forget it and move on.

I can't see the pic, but I do in fact have a great ass.  It is hidden from the public, however.  Hell, it's hidden from the private.  If you wish to gaze on the glory that is my posterior, you will need a weed whacker and a permit from the forestry bureau.  An environment suit is also suggested, as I am eating more vegetables these days.

Is actually my favourite photograph in the history of forever. One day I plan on restoring/retouching this to megapixel quality which, because of the blurry nature of the original, will be more of an illustration project than a restoration one.
