[Welcome home] Come home, come home my son...
 

There are a lot of changes happening with the UD family, most of them inside of me. I was contemplating my return to the Barn, slow or fast. After tonight the pace was obvious, a thread, as only the AW, ADD, and "manic" ud could do...

:cert:

My dear momma is moving, long story short she fell on NYE when I was away and we both knew it was time for her to move back into a smaller one level house. She's 77 and as strong as an ox, barely a bruise, she can thank her father Buppa who immigrated from Poland a century ago for that tenacity. Ole "Buppa" as the grand kids affectionately called him lived to 98.

I except no less from my momma. :angel:

I'm recently moved out and am enjoying a night as a "guest", somewhat surreal hanging out in the ole "basement", with no cats and a strange sterile feel with just a few pieces of my old furniture. My dear momma had cleaned my filthy old living quarters to the bone, but something was missing...

The warmth and love was gone...

Random thoughts, from UD's perspective? It's sad as a nation that we now treat my "condition" with big pharma drugs and squash the creativity. This country is going to shit. This so called "Free speech" on the internet and social fecking media is going to ****ing ruin us, it already has in some respects. It's the modern version of school yard bullying, but now the pussies are hiding behind their keyboards, able to unleash their negatively without any accountability. They can spew vitriol without proof, hate without love...

My friends that is what will eventually really kill this country, not "terrorism". We know and post more about a complete ****ing stranger 1000 miles away and spend more time hating on the internet than loving those around us. Love thy neighbor has turned in hate on the internet.

Sad. It has even trickled down to the emoticons. PS, admins can we replace the sad angle with angel? It's time we take back our sanity and peace one asshole at a time, it all begins at home. :cert:

Full credit to this man for the thread title.


Hug your loved ones tight, say something nice to a stranger on the internet, even if they deserve the opposite.

:cert:

Feck the New Era, this is UniqueDoug. :yesnod:

:Jeff '79:


:cert:

TL;DR

Cliffs without reading:

UD is caught up in excessive drama at the other place and comes here to vent his methane. True to pattern, he'll go back when enough time passes.

Gentlemens bet. Your terms. :cert:

If I go back after my honoring my self imposed 6 month ban and $1000 donation to St. Judes cause I went back on my word, you win.

Yes you read that correctly, left on my terms. :cert:

Doug, I don't follow anyones post to know really what is going on with them. I did catch some of a recent post at the "other" place and I did see that at least one, if not more folks were rude as hell in my opinion. I know you seem to bring a lot of that on you but, damn, I don't think it is that much.

I agree that some, especially at the "other" place can be real pricks. I go there often but don't participate like I do here. I just like the folks here more. of course there are fewer of us but seems like a great group (except for that one guy) .

If you have having problems, and honestly, it sound like you are, I truly hope you can get them resolved to a better condition.

I don't care about a self righteous bet. Just go back now and spare us the teenage angst.

So what happened? I heard there was a little drama but did not know what it was about or see the thread.. Link?

Or never mind if you would rather not talk about it..


Sounds like you wont be back over there for 6 months if it's really going to cost you a grand for even more abuse.. :lol:

Who did you make that bet with? :island14:

And by the way... our Bantayan kids could use that money also... :lol:

I'll just leave this here...

[IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...psjpgcqz2h.png[/IMG]

No problems, financial or personal. I've never been so content and at peace.

:cert:

Fair enough. :cert:

I talked with Jeff earlier today and he advised against a homecoming like this.

I understand and do not wish to bring negativity here. :cert:

I wish you well. :angel:

I prefer not to bring specifics into public play here. :cert:

If you look at my original post here, it did not reference any forum or person. But I do understand the curiosity and allure of making this thread about that. It is NOT. It is about the bigger picture.

Let's please not make this about the "other place".

My PM box is open for specific questions, this is NOT an airing of grievances thread per se, in that I won't name names or throw anybody or any forum under the bus publicly. :cert:

:iagree:

:angel:

Some people lack integrity and class Doug.....

I can't argue with that. :cert:

I mostly have a lousy and pathetic reputation on the internet. I'm trying to move forward with a positive outlook.

Can we bury the hatchet and move on? You showed genuine interest and seem like a good guy. :cert:

Hey.. wait till he changes the bet to donating the money to the Bantayan kids before you run him back off to over there... :Jeff '79:

Yes.
PM sent.

iBienvenidos, UD!

Maybe you should just move your letter here and be done with it.

:iagree:


Same here...


He can play in my sandbox anytime.. :seasix:


..as long as he covers his poo like a cat. :lol:

Could you help me out?

What did I do to personally offend you?

And what can I do to make it better?

:cert:

Welcome back Doug. :cert:

Replied. :cert:

If I am being candid you are the only one there that I was upset about, with the direction our relationship went. I am glad we can be on good terms.

I've missed you. Do you still like bacon? :D

Hey where is Red? I miss that little snot nosed kid too. :D

It was sad to hear about his mom, it was his mom right? :sadangel:

I have gone no where. :rofl: :dixie:

and yeah, bacon is still pretty rad.

Although, for health concerns I have switched over to a low sodium soy substitute that has the appearance of bacon.

:seasix:


Red is still around.

:lol::lol:

Okay, well off to mow mom's lawn before the listing pictures.

On a side note, most of you do not know the big life change, I live full time in an RV (with my three cats of course lol).

I had been sharing my exploits of camping across the Lake Lanier region on beautiful sites with beautiful sunsets.

Would anyone be interested in me continuing the "Great Basement Escape" theme here?

I understand it may be "too early" but it's a shame to keep all the fun to myself. :cert:

And yes I was going for the Tonka look! lol :hide:

http://i622.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps1ubw7duj.jpg

I thought your little "experiment" was f**ked up, considering your well documented past.

Yes I agree, and just addressed that in my PM.

Sorry that your genuine concern and good-hearted nature got you caught in the crossfire. :cert: I'm glad we are hashing this out.

Yes, use your index finger to select CFOT you have saved, and clicky.

Personally, the drama llama boat has long sailed. It's old. You need to go where it's needed/wanted/not here.

Yes, use your index finger to select CFOT you have saved, and clicky.


But, of course, you'll continue here because you're predictable and pouty...and full of drama.

It's just the internet, Doug. Don't take it so seriously.

Yes, what he said.

And please be sure to leave any baggage and drama by the door. It will be escorted away by other sites who have desire for said negativity. :cert:

hello and rewelcome

welcome back Doug

Okay so you answered the first part but what about the second?

What did I do to personally offend you? Honestly I don't ever recall us having issues with each other.

I get that often. It's a two way street though.

Not to brag, but hundreds have enjoyed what I share on the internet, from my dating exploits to selling high mileage diesel "tanks" in N.Ga.

With that comes some respect from those I am sharing with, just as if you were showing pictures to a friend in the gym of a cute girl you just met, or at lunch with a co-worker talking stock tips.

If this is "just the internet" then why do WE, in general, not just speaking about myself, spend so much time on the internet? Why is it when we are out with REAL friends in the flesh...

Why when out with these friends do we have our heads stuck in our devices. You can walk through any mall in America and within 5 minutes see two girl friends with each other, but on their mobile devices.

Something to think about when you say "just the internet". :yesnod:

ok, i don't know what is going on here, but when you can learn to be content with yourself, it's very freeing and liberating.

no one can make you happy. you have to learn to accept your place in the universe and understand that God has a purpose for you. you'll know it when you need to know it.

:iagree:

UD, this is a perfect example.

Sometimes, in life, people aren't going to like you.
Move on. :cert:
Be content with yourself and f**k what others think.

:iagree:

Some people are just dicks.

Wow Doug...right on cue. I actually figured it would be around 24 hours before you slithered back in.

It's like the pot luck picnic where everyone has brought all these great dishes to share and you show up out of nowhere with a lot of hand-wringing and a bag of chips. Then you help yourself to six plates of food and wonder why no one really wants you there. And spare us all the welcome home nonsense. This isn't your home. BoracayJohnny is spot on: For you, it's a way station on the internet. Probably one of many that you run to every time you've worn out your welcome at CF.

I don't know if all this stupid shit you post is real or just a big act, and it doesn't matter. If it's real, then you're a fvcking misfit. If it's just an act, you're still a fvcking misfit. Either way...it's yet another tired rehash of the same grade school level diatribe that you've been regurgitating for around 10 years and it ceased to be funny 8 years ago. So yeah...this "fresh start" nonsense is a bunch of horseshit as well.

Like LATB, you haven't offended anyone. Everyone here has lives and you're nothing more than a sideshow. But also like LATB and a few others, The Barn seems to be a much better place to be overall now that these human stains have been shown the door. I'm pretty certain that would also be the case with you.

:rofl::rofl:

I guess we will just agree to disagree. :cert:

All I ask is that you let my future behavior affect how you feel about me in the future, fair enough. I mean, you can't dislike me forever, can you? lol :shrug:

Ya I know but I'm a people pleaser who just happens to be annoying lol

Doug, you seem like a nice guy and I usually find your posts entertaining. However, things at the other place seemed to get out of hand. I have some advice for you though. Don't use these forums like facebook. Don't post daily updates of every aspect of your life. You are inviting many of the negative responses you get. Please listen to some of the responses by people who appear to care. When someone shares personal information about their mental health issues, posts about relationships, personal and business finances, and pretty much every idea they have, people will respond and you will take it personally. Turn the filter dial up a notch or two and you will have fun here.

Based on my past history there isn't really much I can disagree with there. :cert: All I can hope is that my future behavior will be used to judge me from here on out, not my past.

I was only regular on one forum, scouts honor. I rarely do Facebook or other sites like that. I usually come home from the truck lot, pour a wine, and watch NBA league pass while posting on the one forum (with cats rotating in the lap lol). And scan Match, can't forget Match. :D

I'm an attention whore who annoys people on the forum. I'll work on that. :cert: Once this "fresh start" thread dies down if you see any drama from me I'll man up like I did over there and ban myself.

I only got a 3 day ban from the mods for my antics, the remaining 6 months was me keeping my word, in that if I acted up I would ban myself (and pay $1000 to St.Jude). :cert:

While I like the forum I'm not a glutton for punishment and won't stick around where I'm not wanted. Negativity and shitty people are no longer acceptable in my life, internet or real, so it would be hypocritical to not accept that then be shitty and annoying myself.

Great advice, I agree 110% on all accounts. :cert: Hey maybe forum life is just not a fit for my personality type, time will tell. I wanna make this work.

I'm wondering also.. I have NEVER! seen him get into it with anyone EVER! as long as I have known him, and have known him longer than anyone here... Heck he's the one that dragged me over here from the other place... :lol:


But I'm subscribed to find out... :dance:


:lol:

I'll say this, I don't have any feelings towards Doug (negative or positive) at all.

His threads are always a train wreck albeit very entertaining ones.

He's either the most clueless person out there or the biggest troll ever. Either way:

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Mk2x3QbnUW...dramallama.jpg

And I will finish with this before I am gone for the afternoon. If repo starts trolling me here I will bow out and leave the Barn. He brings out the worst in me, sees the worst in me, and is not a nice person on the internet (I hear he is nice in person).

I'm here to have fun and hang out with like minded forum friends, some of you I have met in person and some I'd like to meet (DJ, AeroJeff, bsmith, etc.).

Hey Doug, maybe you can be the first supporting vendor here. What do you have for C5s in inventory? I may be looking for one soon.

Ding, ding, ding. There have been moments where Doug made fun/interesting/good posts. Most of the time, however, the drama is similar to Jr/High School.

Richard Cranium, present.

When you live you life on the Internet, don't be surprised when the Internet bites back.

Doug is a good dude. CFOT is full of people who will find any reason to make fun of you. I'm sure most of them are good people too (even repo) and wouldn't dream of saying those kind of things in person. There really is no good reason to respond to it.

Damn, some harsh mofos in here. I thought people came here to escape that shit.

I know there are a lot of good doods over at CF, and I like quite a few of them... but one thing I noticed over there that I don't care for much... is being mean to others is considered kinda cool..

To me that's not cool, and when everyone says you got to grow a thick skin?

That's just BULLSHIT..

I think well heck.. if everyone treated each other like we were all together in person in the same room drinking a beer no one would act like that..

(kinda like we do here most of the time)


I post over there sometimes and have a good time, and enjoy myself when I do...

But I'll be danged if I will ever share anything personal over there..


:cert:

Good luck Doug:cert:

I'm putting frowny faces on a few peoples report cards today for not getting along well with others... :toetap:


That will put a stop to that! :datawiz:



:D

You got that right. :yesnod:

:iagree:


Or here....I do my best to not post anything that is personal on a public read forum.
Its not just members that can read on the forums.
If I value the opinions of others for something personal from several members, it can be done via. group PM.

:iagree: Hope you find peace and happiness somewhere in life. Spend more time with friends and family. Surround yourself with positive people.:cheers:

He's an asshole, and you just issued a challenge to him.

:ohnoes:

will this go on our 'permanent record'? :leaving:

I feel comfortable enough here to say whatever I want.. :D

... and If I'm stupid... my friends here will just know I'm drunk and ignore me.. :island14:

:lol:

But yeah, anything real personal goes to PM

Actually have a few things I thought about talking about that I would not be comfortable talking about in public, but may bring it up behind the barn sometime where only our members and people I consider friends can read and reply..

:cert:

Just go to the clinic and get some ointment...it'll eventually heal.......


:Jeff '79: :Jeff '79: :Jeff '79:

repo IS an asshole. I called him out once for the shit he was slinging at UD and he said it's just good natured ribbing and they go way back. Yeah, bullshit. He's a douchebag of the first magnitude, at least on the Internet. The thing is Doug agreed that it was all in fun. I guess we know now.

I was going to ask about the rash, but you beat me to it.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:


Did I ever tell you guys about the time I got the crabs? :island14:

It was back in the late 70's right after the High School days... and made myself a bath with gasoline to sit in and wash them mofo's off..

Let me tell you something from personal experience..

One:.. a bathtub with gasoline in it is probably not very safe thinking back.. :yesnod:


Two: Gas will burn the feck outta your balls!!!!!!!!


DO NOT DO THIS!!!! EVER!!!


:cert:

I thought it was until very recently.

I am sure it started out as a rash...but when yer runnin' around the jungle free-ballin it; its bound to turn into a sore....all that scratchin and shit........ :lol::lol:

I rest my case....... :funniest: :funniest: :funniest:

Same here.

I made a lengthy post but then erased it. I will say this, Tim, you are a good person as many here are already aware. You're the kind of person I wouldn't expect to call on for posting buffalo chips.

People used bust my balls all the time on CF, but there's a big difference in a little banter among the guys and underhanded cheap shots. That shit from repo crossed the line.

I didn't much read the recent new era UD threads because I really don't GAFF, so I don't know what went down, but I have a pretty good idea.

I got sent to camp too

:needcoffee:

:iagree:


I spent A LOT of time taking up for you ....... :angel:

You did? I didn't see anything you did that was camp worthy?

How long?

Howdy weezie! How long? What did you do? :funnier: Whatever it was, I couldn't find it. :waiting:

used to?

didn't read

:Jeff '79: Bullshiit.

Not really sure what you meant by that but I'm taking it as a compliment.. :lol:

Your a good dood Johnny.. always liked yah.. always will..

:cert:

Again? what for this time:lol:

Buffalo chips is another way of saying Bullchit:)

I didn't even look at the thread, but I can just imagine. All the threats coming down from on high: "We're gonna take a look at these posts and..."

Like everyone is supposed to be so very frightened. :rofl:

That's something else people came here to get away from: Being threatened or censored because they speak their mind. :spdchk:

This. Tim doesn't post it.

I got 7 days for saying "FU Brad. Really."
:leaving:
I guess it was worth it. You can F with me all day and all night and I'll take more shit than the Roto Rooter man and laugh right along with you. Brad likes to insinuate that I didn't pay a bet.....now apparently he would like to see a receipt or something. Holy crap man....I am pretty sure Wren and I invented the St. Jude's bets in 2003/2004.
:rofl::rofl:
I like that place and I like all the people.....BradSW and Beep Beep(and his many aliases) are the only people I can't deal with. They make me sad.....

:)

Thanks man.. :seasix:

Actually I don't.. why bother...

But I do leave out some of the more embarrassing stuffs from a story sometimes... :lol:


:cert:

Good to see you UD. Now, listen up. There are people here, and at CF for that matter, that like you and regardless of where you post, you need to relax. No one should be able to push your buttons that hard on the innerwebs. Your meltdown over there was pretty scary. Please find something to level you out a bit.

Sincerely,

Your friend Mirror

:grouphug:

"The VetteBarn: We're Not Fascist Assholes, Just Assholes"


:D

You are at CF too? same name?

It was pretty mutual.
UD said that they even texted each other.

WHo cares, it's over.

I'll chip in a couple of bucks to St Jude if CF will take you back sooner so you will leave this place.

:bfd:

:rofl:

:yesnod:

He's hard to notice; being a midget and all....... :island14:

:D:seasix:

House MD says, "Everyone Lies". I can apply that to VB, "Everyone leaves out details". No sane person posts every idea, story, or incriminating pictures.

:funny: Well not like they used to. Fn Raazor and Strats tried to run me off like they were...you. :funnier:

Wow, that's lame. I did see that and thought meh, whatev. Thought you guys were BSing with each other.

Me and Jimmy and Koko were riding that OSPS dude's douchy ass, but I figgered I better chill seeing the mods had ban hammer out.

:rofl:

I learned that lesson from Eddie Murphy and Old Spice...
