A couple of summers ago I am in Gulf Shores for a weekend (after canceling a trip to Italy due to covid) with my wife (no pics), and I’m ordering a margarita at the pool bar, and some guy behind me says, “Hey, are you Slippy?”

I don't know IRL. Seems all the Earls I know spell their name different. Must be from CA.

Just 1. Guy I’ve known for over 40 years. He used to be a well known poster on the outdoor board. He made a post one day that was identical to a Facebook post he made the same day. I rarely post and his posts are rare these days so I’ve never let him know I figured him out. Other than that I’ve known a couple that lurk here, but none admit to having a username.

Lester Earl is one of the few I’ve met irl

ETA: guess that guy could’ve been lying too

I know LE, as in who he is, and I’d bet you haven’t actually met him.

I kind of understand this. Some people do not hide things from their spouse so would not want to continue posting without saying anything. And don't Want to give the spouse a "journal" into your single years either

Hundreds, at least. I remember we had this thread like ten years ago and I think I had over 100 phone numbers of people on here.

life comes at you fast Burrr

There are posters that would use the opportunity in a second to throw a wrench in your irl life by exposing your shite posting knowing damn well people that have never read the OT would view your post in the improper lens

My boss figured out my screen name. Doesn’t help that there’s only a handful of women here.

Hubby obviously knows my username but he doesn’t post anymore because it’s too much of a time sucker.

there becomes a point where they are just regular friends that you happened to meet through TD. Just like you have regular friends that you met through work or because they were neighbors or through mutual other friends or whatever.
