I caught hell from Rag when I first started posting. Hell, I think I caught it from you and Rebel too. I know I did from Owlfan. But after a while, after you take it and give it back, I settled in and understood that it's mostly banter and intended as fun. And then, outside of it, I feel like I've developed e friendships with all of them. I assume IRL, most of you are good people. I'm going to miss Rag. I had no idea how angry so many were with him. But reading things, I guess I get it. I'm baffled, though, that so many people allowed themselves to get so angry at a message board poster as to delight in his IRL eternal death, even to the point of celebrating and wanting to piss on his grave. I didn't see that coming.

By and large, I was not under attack too much from him. BUT, I saw him go after others a fair amount of times and watched how he would change the things they said, twist words, spin stuff around and it bugged me. I have stated that the crap he did with Dad was just over the line, IMO.

The reason it worked though was he always had some back up and nobody can win going 1 on 5+. (Except Bruce Lee or maybe Chuck Norris) When he tried it with Jones and LL at the other place it blew up on him and he disappeared...As best as I can remember anyway...

W/E...I hate it for his family and IRL friends but will not really miss him here.

You guys have a good Saturday.

OH, Kafka is hilarious but rarely is it in the 3 Stooges fashion.

Kafka makes me laugh

I swapped maybe a couple dozen emails with Rag. He never asked me for information on other posters. But then again, I don't really know much about other posters.

I'm like Nurse. I thought he was around 43-44 w/ 3 young kids. I gathered his business was somehow related to building/ real estate. For some reason, I thought he was tied to commercial leasing.

Maybe I'm naive, but I still find it hard to believe he started fabricating a "character" back in 2005.

But I think I'm accepting the fact that Rag and Bryan were one in the same. I am going to go ahead and have PJ pen a poem in Rags honor.

Me too. It is not in your face stuff usually but you and I get it because we are smarter and better than the others. I am amazed that he can come up with some stuff because I heard he is about 85 and is a dementia-ridden illegal.

Shut up and wipe the chorizo grease off of your chin.

Festus I think I thought you were a Pectus alter when you first started.

So my two questions that maybe someone can answer 1) Did an old saggy ball TigerRag bang Beans? 2) Did Festus really see an old 60 + year old man ready to fight the guy in the hyndai?

so all of his over-the-line antics & bullshite in his 'internet life' seem really unnecessary. Just very strange & kinda sad, imho.

You just described 70% of td users. They'll say stuff on here that they'd never say irl.

Say what you want about me.

But, when you go after golf and my friends I play golf with you're gonna get the business end of my 913 D2 8.5° with BB7 X Stiff and a fresh Z Cord upside da head.

Blee dat.
