At least that's a manly way to get injured - not like tripping over a yoga mat.

I'm back at work but I don't venture any higher than the 1st floor. The other guys at work are picking up my slack.
Glad you're still alive. Sounds like it could have just as easily gone the other way.

Question from some of you who've been on CF longer than me: Where does the outright hatred of FPD from a few come from? Lots of very personal insults in his current thread and outright hatred from a couple of people. Why?

I didn't think anyone actually hates him. I always took the shots as jokes. Some just more harsh than others.

He can be insufferable at times.

I don't understand that either. There's an extremely vocal group of what Doug calls "core haters" - which is the main reason he rarely posts here. Doug's lifestyle is a tad unconventional but he's good people.

Skid Row Joe (an insufferable fool) compared him to a serial child killer in a post today. If that's not hate I don't know what is. He, repo and Lars take every chance they can to insult everything about Doug when his choices have no impact on them at all. I don't get it.

I just choose to not engage with insufferable people there, it's not hard.

Doug has always put himself out there and makes himself an easy target. He's had a couple of meltdowns over the years and gone off on some people. There are probably some hard feelings. I do agree with Phred though, he's good people.

Not sure on the when as much as the who they are which you see now pretty clearly From the old dating threads on match to the current business, home and boat stuff.

I am not sure on the hate part. It sure looks and smells like it so it could be it right?

Doug's a nice guy. He has issues, but no more or less than any of us. Just different.

Skid Row Potato is a fukken retard and a coward. He just jumps into threads to join the pile on.

And for some reason he likes to call me fat by posting pictures of people that aren't even me, over and over and over again, and I don't fukken get it.

Almost time for another callout video.
