wow, it's already been two weeks?
I feel like it just happened. I don't know if that makes me a dick or not.

ftr, I want The Walrus to come back; he can be super abrasive and there are a handful of issues about which I adamantly contest he's in the wrong, but he's a good dude, contributor and I feel the discussion on the forum is less colorful w/o him
(tbh the future would be safer if he was a minority)
:dead
I just didn't think he'd take it that seriously. Also I don't know why the onus lays at my feet. I was hardly the sole purveyor of banter, friends :bolo
Like you wouldn't be taking credit for it if that thread had gotten HoF'ed.
Anyways, he's had worse thrown at him in multiple threads over the years. Didn't quit over most of those, and was occasionally a very good sport about rolling with the punches. He's had trouble responding to disrespect/rejection, both that we've all seen on here and that he talked about, and it's likely that this had more to do with where his head was at when the thread happened than the actual content.
You gotta hope for his sake that he's able to cope with this shit better on a consistent basis in the future and that if/when he comes back it's because he's chilled, not that he's looking to overturn some old L's.

And that it's during the NBA offseason, so he won't be posting in that thread.
it doesn't feel right posting in a place where something I value so highly was mocked so mercilessly.
Thank you for coming back to post this.

I only have two good pieces of advice to offer in life. Don't ask questions the answers to which you don't want to hear, and if you can't laugh at yourself someone else will.
also; do what you love, love what you do; get out of your comfort zone; be yourself... unless you suck; when things aren't adding up in your life you need to start subtracting;to forgive is to set a prisoner free and discover that the prisoner was you; lean in; a party without a cake is just a meeting; be the mom you want them to remember
