As a medical professional I strongly recommend you drink the rye. And go to the hospital if it blisters. But mostly drink the rye. like

but hey, I'm just an unintelligent, unfunny, internet wierdo transient who lives in a 'podunk village' and whines all day long. If I had the issues with my house that he had I would likely come here to vent. It's general chat, in a thread about shitty things that happen to us day to day. What does him not meeting anyone have to do with anything? I don't get it. I've got absolutely nothing against you Wonk, but I just don't understand where your coming from on this one. You missed the point Rusty. Meeting people is not a requirement on this board, that's irrational. Let me paraphrase with a slight exaggeration to explain it better. [This is the part explaining what Alex brings to the board] Alex: Me me me me me, me me me me me me Board: (crickets) Alex: Me me me, me me me me me me me me me Board: (yawn) Alex: Me me me me me, me me me, me me Board: (crickets) [This is the part he should owe a copay for] Alex: Wah wah wah condo wah mortgage (sniffle) Board: Oh man, that sucks Alex: Wah wah Ryan wah property wah wah (tears) Board: It's going to be okay dude. Alex: Wah wah, blah blah blah, wah wah (sobbing) Board: Yeah, that's too bad, keep your chin up. [Still going six months later...] Alex: Wah wah, waaaaaaaaaaah, property waaaaah and stuff (balling) Board: Everything is going to work out for you dude Alex: (sniffle) aw thanks guys, you are helping me feel a lot better. Board: No problem dude. Do you want to join us for a BBQ this weekend? Alex: FUCK YOU INTERNET WEIRDOS! And Rusty, yes it's on topic, but buying real estate is supposed to be a giant pain in the ass. It's analogous to going to the Dentist. Who actually enjoys that agony? Besides, bitching about buying property on a board mostly filled with people who spend their income on concerts and records is like bragging that you can afford it.

Funny, I don't remember being invited to a BBQ. Maybe it's in a thread that I haven't read or something.
You've clearly invested a lot of time worrying about me and what I do with my time and posts. It's odd though, because a number of people have actually asked questions, expressed concern, and have straight up tried to cheer me up through the process. The only reason I kept posting about it is to keep those people in the loop.
To be honest, dude, you're coming off like some sort of jealous little bitch here. Bragging that I can afford a house? No. Never have I talked price, square footage, anything. It's rude to talk about those things regardless of company.
If I remember correctly, HG put in an ignore feature. If my posts bother you so much, I suggest you use it.
Sound good? Ok then. Have a good one.

Wanna hear something funny, y'all?
The bar across the street from my job just put up a huge sign in front that says,
"WELCOME SINGLE MOMS!!!"

What Ro is saying is, Alex, you are feeding the troll, and he is reveling in it. There is no point in a level-headed response to being wonked. Wonk will wonk you because he doesn't like how you post, and you have to deal with it. He's like the centaur at the center of the labyrinth. Everybody's got to deal with him eventually.

Also, if Wonk were saying all of this to you in person, you would probably laugh and buy him a beer.

This place used to be a shining beacon of internet assholery, and that kind of fell by the wayside after we all became friends. Trolling is protected by the unwritten bylaws of this board, and is thoroughly encouraged.
Hey daver go wash your hair.

I still have no idea what your issue is, but I also realize I likely never will; it is what it is I guess, and it is the internet so it doesn't really matter, right?

There is no 'issue'. Trolling is its own reward.
For seriously, it's standard practice to dogpile on anyone who reaches a point where 80% of their posts are about the same thing.

The only exception is Burrito, who exclusively posted about Black Dice and weed for his first two months, but was somehow great at it.

I believe it is traditionally a minotaur at the center of the labyrinth. Centaurs favor shady glens, archery ranges and porn studios.

Seems to me that this has gone far beyond trolling, but hey, he's apparently funny in person so it must be just fine.

And frankly, it's fairly tame. I told Hancho to GET THE FUCK OUT after all of his posts for a couple weeks, for instance. That was probably over the line.
