Never thought I would be the one asking this, but what happened to Dane?
Hasn't posted since July, and I don't remember a big blow up that would normally lead to his taking a break. Seemed like he was amped up for the season. [Reply]

But getting enraged enough to post something to the effect of "you are a dipshit"....or "you are a $%&@# moron" may be alright with you, but not with me. That's a whole other level of angry that is unhealthy. I have seen Dane disagree with people on here and it wasn't respectfully....and was for small things.
I am assuming he has me on ignore....just like I have him on ignore. Life is too short and I am too old to tolerate someone who doesn't know me getting enraged for disagreeing. There are too many other good Chiefs fans on here to discuss/disagree with that don't resort to angry posts to make their point.
And I 100% respect that, and don't entirely disagree.
But being called a butt fucking moron, or being told to drink antifreeze, climb an AIDS tree, etc are for better or worse the fabric of this place. And it's entertaining AF. But it's not for everyone, and that's why there are features to ignore others.
I guess my point is about judging people based solely on what gets posted here. I've lost count of how many people I've met on here that act like assholes, but were a blast to hang out with IRL. Many have become lifelong friends I still make a point to see when I'm in the area. And I'm sure the reverse is true, I've been far from a saint on this site. [Reply]

There's one guy who's probably responsible for 90% of the thumbs down votes that I've gotten over the years. Fucker's been a member for 20 years, but has around 300 posts. We've never had any sort of exchange, ever, but if you see a thumbs down vote on something I posted, it's probably from him. Very strange. Him I repay with neg rep. :-)
Speaking of weirdos who give me multiple thumbs down, I have apparently ran afoul of Billay. He hit me with nine of them yesterday.
Since I have no interest in hearing about him getting cornholed by the maintenance guy at his trailer park or similar exploits, I long ago put his degenerate, attention-whoring ass on ignore. I guess he resents this. He gave me a thumbs down on a post yesterday, so I responded with a neg. Clearly he didn't like it. :-)
I'm not taking you off ignore, Billay, but I will say this - in my rep comment, I likened you to Richard Simmons, which really isn't accurate. You're more like the dump Richard Simmons would take after getting buttfucked by an angry bridge troll.

Oh...I would never call myself a saint. I have had my moments that I am not proud of. Most don't remember that on the Star board and when I joined here in the first few days I went by mmaddog....something at that point in my life I wore like a badge of honor. Not so proud of some of those moments now.
Because of where I have lived my in person meetings with Planet fans have been few...but those who I have met in person will tell you I seem like a decent guy....and love to hear myself talk. [Reply]
I'm guilty of snapping at people over something silly. I think what causes it a lot of times is I will have read 99 idiotic things in a row by a bunch of random idiots without saying anything and then the 100th person will say something a little dumb but innocuous and I'll respond like they just took a dump on my shoe.
Recent examples would be my responses to TLO posting "who?" in a RIP thread and Rainman saying he doesn't like black and white movies.

Have a nice day!
How do you see who thumbed up/down your posts? [Reply]
