GM's thread about nothing (45 Viewers)

Furley was the original timschochet. One of the most prolific look at me posters the boards have ever seen.
GM would like a word

i remember some anger about my supplanting him back in '06
No, never really worried about that, just never liked you. Still don't. Dr. Detroit had your back and asked me nicely to give you a chance, so I did. But I don't like you at all, think you are a dooooosh of the highest order and wouldn't piss on you if your Packers' underwear were on fire. Go away. You suck.
well, this came out of nowhere :thumbup:

i'm ok with not being in the favor of a 40something year old alcoholic that cheated on his wife with his own nanny. sometimes in life people don't mesh and that's ok. don't lose sleep over it. i'm sure when the nanny gets tired of you that krista will have a vacation home nearby you can stay at.
My age? That's your go to insult? The rest...funny. Yeah I'm a goofy looking *******. But I'm sure you loom like Brad Pitt.

Whatever it is in life that's beating you down, I hope it gets better for you. Out of nowhere is right...I haven't said anything to you in years, despite your desperation for attention. You took a shot at me, not the other way around.
not to bring up old drama, but Furley hasn't posted in the FFA since this exchange.

still active at Beer Spot though, so guess he's doing alright.
Beer dork calling me an alcoholic is good shtick. If he's lucky, he too may become 40 something in life.

Krista, how's my vacation home coming along?
Ugh, so glad we get to talk about this guy. I'm sure he's been following along just waiting for someone to talk about him. Blech.

 
Finished repainting the home office today. Just have touch up and base boards to go before we get it tiled in a couple of weeks. There is only one ceiling in the house that has the original paint and its days are numbered. Of course its the largest ceiling in any room in the house. Ugh.
if your are tiling why do you have the baseboards on already ?
Carpet needs to come out and tile going down on slab rather than subfloor. Thinset will raise it to the level of the baseboards and no finishing strip. Just a quick paint of baseboards before tiles go in.
so why not take the baseboard off and have the tile under the baseboard. Just curious
Tile will be under the baseboards when installed.
so you're sliding the tiles in under the finished baseboard? or are we misreading this?
Correct
ok. seems like more potential for problems vs the "normal" way of working (taking baseboard off first)... but hopefully it'll all work out fine.

and now that I'm completely emotionally invested, please let us know how it goes and if there actually are any problems with the install due to baseboards.
Will do. Installers said they do it this way quite a bit without issue. I thought about going all the baseboards off, but I already painted the walls. Pic of closet: http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d151/osaurus/8ADF7B0A-A18E-427A-A193-F21E656F6100_zpsdj8yjdkr.jpg
Umm, good job "painting the closet. "

 
Ugh, so glad we get to talk about this guy. I'm sure he's been following along just waiting for someone to talk about him. Blech.
a guy with 53 thousand posts has been following along quietly for 7 months just waiting for someone to bring him up?

I assume you had a history prior to that post?

because- yeah- that esxalting quickly and out to the blue.
Ask him. His rationale is quite bizarre. He alleges that I carry a grudge against him because he said I look like somebody he knows...a BIL or friend or something. Okay, let's get one thing out the way. I am picked on constantly in here for looking like Powder, Casper, Jim Gaffigan, Lyle Overbay, Clouds, Invisibility, Paste, Translucentness, etc, etc. If I held grudges or lashed out at everybody who made fun of my appearance, I'd have no time left in my life for anything else. So his allegation is not only ludicrous, but completely baseless.

Circle back to the top of this post chain and you'll see that Rude compared Furley to Tim, citing his early need for attention. That was a well earned reputation and just like scores of posters here complained about Tim's verbosity and penchant for plethora posting, Furley did the same in the halcyon days of FBG and it garnered similar scrutiny that Tim faces now (though Tim's throttled it way back and his own thread has helped). Furley takes this as an invitation to insult me out of the blue and bring up the past. Why? What did I do? That pissed me off.

Finally, if you are going to dig up my past and insult my character, get it right. I have provided plenty of material over the years for derision and mockery, but what he posted is nothing short of libel. I didn't cheat on my ex-wife with my current wife (or, to use his words " that cheated on his wife with his own nanny"). That never happened and to throw that out there as a matter of fact is incredibly hurtful. I may not like him, but I've never once brought his family into any of our discussions. I find that behavior to be vile, disgusting and the lowest form of humanity. Insult me? Sure, fine. Insult my wife and allege things that didn't happen? Unforgivable.

Yes, I doubt very much that he just stopped reading the board entirely, and he will be thrilled to see he's still in people's consciousness. And I understand that he was a prolific poster at one time, but he'd ratcheted that back significantly.

Floppy, you weren't posting in this thread when he decided to start insulting me, GM, others, so I'll forgive you your posts. ;)

Giant yuck.

Yeah, I figured you'd look at that and was prepared to mention that people often have aliases here (shocking, I know), but based on your belief and Tanner's I must be wrong. Sorry 'bout that.

Still don't know why we need to talk about a guy who was nothing but a giant bag of ##### to several of us, though.

if that was the only criteria we were going on, we wouldn't be able to talk about a lot of people in here.

I don't know what the deal is with his beef with you guys, or why he lashed out the way he did. Still, given the recent news about TUP, I get a little nervous if someone is really active and then disappears from the boards. Was a little worried about him.

I'm sorry he was mean to people, but I like Furley.

Eventually going to be custom closet. Going to be expanded out and no door so paint was done in advance of that.

figured there was some history.

fwiw- his reply above that references you... doesn't raise a single red flag to me. so your response to it seemed like *whoa*

I'd check in here every now and then- and I do remember checking in when something went down with him and you. I didn't see all/much of it, but was also *whoa* about what he'd have up his butt about gb K4.

 
Pretty sure we need to get back to 50 Shades of GM jokes
:goodposting:

and to an answer to my question... is 50 Shades just 91/2 Weeks?

also- wasn't the whole uproar about the book that it featured an older dude with a much younger broad? the TV spots looks like they're pretty much the same age.

also.... I liked the Fall.

 
I don't doubt that he's a good dude and had I chance to sit down with him over a beer, I'm sure we'd be fast friends. But that doesn't remove what he said about me, my wife, my character or my appearance (which, screw it, I'm hideous, fire away...doesn't mean it doesn't hurt to read). IMO, good guys don't involve spouses or families into their disagreements with other guys.

I don't post my photo around here because I look like SLB. Got enough problems already.

ATTN Rude: Upcoming Bakersfield Condors Promo Nites.

CONDORSTOWN, Calif. – The Bakersfield Condors, ECHL affiliate of the Edmonton Oilers, announced today the game originally scheduled on Saturday, Dec. 7 against Las Vegas will be made up on Sunday, April 13 at 4 p.m. for the team’s first-ever “Undie Sunday.”

When the team scores their first goal, similar to Teddy Bear Toss, fans are encouraged to chuck their underwear (new, please!) onto the ice for donation to charity.

Undie Sunday – Sunday, April 13 – 4 p.m. v. Las Vegas

  • Pronounced “un-dee, sun-dee”
  • Bring new undergarments and throw them on the ice after the Condors score their first goal
  • Bras, boxers, briefs, ‘long johns,’ diapers, socks, undershirts, and the like will be gladly accepted and donated to those in need
  • Undergarments will fly better if still in the packaging … duh!
And 50 Shades of Gray Jersey Night
- The jerseys literally feature 50 shades of the color grey, along with a necktie, masquerade mask, and handcuffs, which are all featured on the cover of the widely-popular trilogy. Rejected jersey designs were admittedly more "interesting."
:lmao:

yeah, that whole thing was strange. sorry to bring it back up again.

just noticed he hadn't posted since then, so I assume that has some significance.

I don't know if he's a good dude or a bad dude. The attack on the family was out of line, I totally agree. I try to give people the benefit of the doubt as I usually have no idea what's going on in their lives when they lash out. I've had a few i-dustups. None that have lingered as grudges, I don't think. Also, I drink a lot and forget things.

And don't let anyone tell you you're hideous looking. Except your wife. Then maybe you might want to worry about it.

He was also going scorched earth on K4 before I said anything, so perhaps my response seems out of line without that context, but he was blistering her, then for good measure, wanted to bring me into it. So sure, comparing me to Tim in a vacuum, fine. Doing it on top of his antics with regards to K4 and it bothered me.

But, that was months ago, I had forgotten all about it until now. Hope all is well with him; he obviously has a bunch of friends here. Tell him to come back and perhaps we can make amends. All I'd ask that he be very careful going forward to avoid bringing wives and families into disagreements and calling somebody an alcoholic in this thread is akin to calling somebody a vapid airhead at the Grammys.

He's not checking here. I interact with him at the beer snob place.

Rude - check in there (per his request)
