    Ya'll are REALLY blowing this shit way out of proportion.

    EVERYONE should've known that @HCP was not posting a real pic of Carmelo.

    If you thought it was real, or thought he was being real then:

    :smiley-cough:

    and this is you:

    This whole thread is based on blowing shit out of proportion, IMO. Melo's not this important.

    Hmm, though upsetting Clutchfans is. I take it back.

    I guess I don't quite get the HCP angst around here. HCP's had the same shtick since he first started posting here. He likes to screw around and make posts that usually aren't intended to be taken seriously. I think some of you newer posters who haven't been around as long weren't quite sure what to make of him and took offense when none was really meant. I think if you take his bluster and bullshit in the way it's intended, as good-natured ribbing, he's pretty fun to read. Personally, I'd like to see this whole unnecessary drama ramped down a bit. If you don't want to read his posts, put him on ignore.

    Exactly.

    When @HCP is being serious, it's pretty fuckin' obvious.

    I have no problem with HCP personally, but when a lot of people's first impression with someone is that person being a dick to them with no context or history to draw on (since they're new), that's kind of the risk you run. It might take a while before they catch on to the gimmick.

    Somewhere The @HCP is enjoying himself watching us all talk about him.

    And when I say "enjoying himself", I'm mean, something graphic.

    Sorry, but you are somewhat wrong.

    All he has to do is say, hey, Im just kidding around... ONCE in a while and all new posters would get it. Until he does, his posts can go suck a nut. lol. and until he does, he indeed runs the risk of being taken seriously and when he gets all butthurt for being taken seriously, that's where I like to step in and say whooaaa... you started this shit, now OWN it!

    I'd politely disagree. Y'all should've and should always know when what he's posting is true or a joke.

    When you guys don't recognize his joke, it's like missing sarcasm because the font wasn't green.

    If you are going to make jokes, you better understand not everyone will find you funny because not everyone thinks the same thinsg is funny and if you intentionally are trying to jab at people you better expect to get jabbed ast back..
    Again, my only issue with him is he starts stuff, but then never acknowledges he did anything. Pretty simple really.

    Have to disagree for the same reason as above. Not everyone's humor bone is the same. IM not a monty python fan and don't understand it, but I have friends who think its the funniest thing ever.
    The point is, the moment someone is not seeing him as funny, he practically goes after them rather than saying hey, i'm just joking around. And that's my whole point. He has no ownership of his antics and acts like an angel in the aftermath. ITs pathetic really and I like to call him out on it.

    You probably need to smoke more pot, if you want to find it funny too.

    You aren't alone. I generally love British comedy, but I've also never fallen in love with Monty Python. It just doesn't do it for me.

    Now this is probably my favorite short comedy series ever! All 6 episodes are on YouTube.

    Same. I like a lot of British comedy (I grew up with it being a fixture on Saturday nights, since a local PBS station showed it then and my parents loved British comedies) but Monty Python has never been funny to me.

    But give me Black Adder or Yes, Minister all day.

    Cutting would require you to play off-ball. Are you going to go Olympic Melo on me?

    Then, just like I did, you get the @SlyPokerDog email explaining wassup with @HCP then, if you're like me and recognize he's from NEP, you can understand him a bit better if you're fom there too.

    Or, you can be obtuse and CHOOSE to be annoyed. Either way, it's your choice.
