Can we talk about me now? (Open bar thread #3,494)

[Nephew Twiddleton]

Yeah, so I spent a year worried about Dr James Semaj, after his disappearance.

Then it turns out he's been avoiding us in favor of Facebook.

Yay.

TGRR,
Isn't worried anymore.  Fuck that guy.

Oh. Well. Glad he's ok at any rate. Why'd he bounce though?

Who knows?  Who cares?

Because he just disappeared without warning.

Yeah, turns out that he was 17, and when he asked to be on the demented mailing list, he failed to mention his exact age, or the fact that his parents apparently read all of his mail before they give it to him.

So he was banned (by his folks) from posting here until he turned 18.

Well, he turned 18 a few months later, and then didn't bother coming back.  Then he visited not long ago, PM'd me about what happened, ignored my friend request, refused to post, and settled in at Cram's FB board (you know, the ones that aren't allowed to post here or whatnot because it might be disloyalty to Cram).

So I've been worried about him all this time for nothing.  So has Phox, IIRC.

So screw him and everyone else that decided that they're too good for us.

Pity.

That does remind me however, do you have my current mailing address in Somerville?

Nope.  Hit me with a PM.

I feel another letter-writing binge coming on.

Sent.

I let the PO Box expire. It became an unnecessary expense. I expect to be here for quite some time.

Yeah, well, he posts on Cram's FB page.  I guess he didn't bother there, either.

Oh, and this is for you, Richter:

We got lucky and lightening struck that weird guy over there who doesn't like to huddle in the herd. Too smelly he said. Guess who's the smelly one now? Har har!

How ya doin', kiddo?

[LMNO]

Semaj was 17?

That explains a few things.

Expect him to post again at 22. Please be kind. Believe it or not, I remember 17-23. It was a weird fucking time.



LMNO
- 23 though 30 was kind of a blur, though.

I wouldn't know.  While everyone else was emotarding out at age 17, I was cursing myself as a dumbfuck at Fort Benning.

So I did all that shit when I was 34-35.

See, you got your "the world is a cruel and ugly place" training early. I had to wait until I hard actually convinced myself I knew what was "really going on".

Actually, it was more like a bad case of chiggers up the pance.

And I still have no fucking clue what's "really going on".

To my knowledge Cram has never expressed to anyone that he would be upset if they posted here, or implied the same. He certainly has never expressed that sentiment to me privately.

Roger, I feel like theres a lot of people out there whose feelings about PD have changed or are changing, and that thats a reflection on how they feel about a webpage, not about you. I dont think I engage with you less via PD because I've grown to be disinterested in you as an individual, but because its not the place for me it first was (or because I'm not the person I was when I arrived). And I think probably most people who've spent time here (although I'm sure theres discussions I haven't seen) would jump at the chance to spend time with you because they value PD/forums/internet time/whatever less; not because the value the people they connect to less.

I just got ham juice all over myself.

How does Ham feel about that?

I didn't ask...
