To be fair he seems to be making more of an effort to engage in grown-up conversation lately. I'm actually encouraged by this.

The problem is that his idea of "grown-up conversation" seems to consist of phrasing everything as awkwardly and insufferably as possible. I mean, I can only do so much (certain word s), but there are ways to have a conversation with someone, and then there are ways to sound like I did when I was 16 and wanted to appear smart, and he is overwhelmingly choosing the latter.

I grew up in the Portland area, and have family up there. I would like to move back, but the jobs I've been seeing seem to pay very little. I am looking at IT jobs, and it looks like they pay about as much as I am getting now for interning.

He was only posting things like that when he was whited out. Let me tell you something about me. I am a lover. I think people are good. I feel bad every time some person gets flamed on this board because I think maybe this person just needs a friend or maybe they just are having a bad day/week/life. I have such a hard time thinking people are just being jerks that I will delude myself into thinking they are ok. I even think that most of the time they are. This guy is an asshole. Every time someone responds to anything he says they are feeding the troll. I really tried to give this guy a chance. If he actually had any intention of actually participating on this board then he would not use every single word of every single post trying to prove how much better he is than everyone and how much more he knows about everything. He would engage in conversation with people instead of just jumping to some defensive, wordy reply. He would talk to us like actual people and not like his disdainful minions.

A simple google search of his user name reveals just how many boards he has jumped to and from over the years, as well as a universal hatred toward him from every single one of them. Dude is a shit head troll, straight up.
And as we all know, Stormy is one of the kindest people you will ever meey, so you know it's bad when she feels that way!

That piece of shit only dials it down when he realizes how close he is to getting his stupid fucking self thrown out of here. The pandering somehow only makes it worse.
Edwin Nutsack is a worthless human being. Just because six of his 250 posts are slightly less asinine than the rest doesn't mean he's turning some kind of corner.

So just ignore him. It's not worth it to get bent out of shape over.

I'm past being bent out of shape over it. I'm at the point where I can just be casually abusive towards him for my amusement. Honestly it doesn't really bother me that much anymore. But if he's gonna hold his bowl out and beg for more he's gonna get it.

Bachelor party. Rode the train down Saturday afternoon and stayed the night. Seriously had the best time of my life. Know has the drunk texts to prove it.
Highlights of the trip included running into David Koechner at our hotel, somehow charming a Timbers fan into buying me a shot, and dancing in the middle of the streets to drums and bagpipes. God I love you, PDX.

And Pea has the drunken texts from me to prove that I was livid when the Antlers decided to start 30 minutes late so the sun wouldn't be in their eyes.

Hah. I forgot about that. I like to pretend that if I don't revisit drunk texts then they never happened.
