    Not gonna clog the main forum.

    I've been an asshole.

    I'll stop. Sorry to project my personal life struggles onto you.

    My view does stay the same about the Blazers. But I'm just gonna shut the fuck up about it.

    My apologies to all of you.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    We're all assholes.

    Are we all supposed to apologize?

    This sets a dangerous precedent. Thanks a lot, @Strenuus.

    Might be time to take a break from the board, talk to friends and family, and give up your mod powers. It’s not real and nobody gives a shit unless they struggled through things too.

    Yikes.

    @Strenuus seems to be struggling. It has nothing to do with how it reflects on you?

    Take care of yourself. Projecting anger on Terry Stotts won’t solve whatever troubles you may be experiencing.

    I never said what he's going through reflects on me, though?

    Also, I suspect he'll take my post in the manner it was meant. You're new around here, I know, and you don't know anything about me--I tend to say a lot of things tongue-in-cheek.

    I'm glad that you're acknowledging that you're such a massive asshole. That's the first step. Admitting you have a problem.

    If you want some pointers on how to be widely well liked around here, I am willing to offer up my services (for a small fee).

    Apparently someone responded to my post, but I can't see it. They must be too far beneath me for their posts to be visible.

    Nah, I don't need to take a break. I do need to own up to what I did, make amends, and try to better myself.

    It may not be "a big thing" but you are all people and my actions have repercussions. I'll be an adult and own up to it.

    I kinda like you fuckers, so... lol.

    HIS COACHING IS FRUSTRATING THOUGH lol.

    Nah, in the end, it's not about why I was angry, but how I respond. I'm better than that and hold myself to higher standards, so when I fuck up, I own up to it.
