Doug being Doug...advice ignored.

It's possible his threads/posts are being deleted because mods think it is for his own good. He lacks the ability to see that for himself so I can't say I disagree with them if that is the case.

It was his "Goodbye forum" thread I think. They all kind of meshed together with regard to content, but I think this was the "I'm okay and I'm done with forums" thread.

They all kind of run together, but he said he wasn't leaving either forum.

IMO, he was back to his "oversharing" tendencies, he spelled out the financial arrangement with K, then someone predictably called him a loser and he cited his net work and cash holdings, and that he has enough money to get him to the rapture...

Zero communication with him, but it wouldn't surprise me if K told him to shitcan the recent threads after that.

It's a weird dynamic for sure.
He has shared so much info over the years that people act like he owes them more information on demand, and he can't help himself.

Pretty sure folks were trying to be helpful when he said he wanted to spend 2 grand on tires and exhaust for the battered bronco.

He became defensive and quickly told everyone he could afford it because he has a net worth of a little over 100K with 45K in cash.

Along with no job (yet), no home, and mental illness. The man needs a swift kick in the priority nuts.

There you go. My sympathy for that mope is at zero. I don’t understand why so many people are on the ‘Poor Doug’ bandwagon. If he were making ANY attempt at fixing himself it’d be different.

‘Hope it all works out buddy!’ No. **** you. Start conducting yourself like a grown man. Handle your shit or it handles you.

He had his "I'm ok" thread nuked earlier.

You currently are entertained by his issues. Is this not “presently”?

No clue how you felt in the past

And now a quick word from our sponsors and we’ll be right back with As The Stomach Turns, starring Unique Doug and his cast of sycophants in the internets longest running soap opera and general 3 ring circus of attention whoring.

I CURRENTLY find it entertaining. That does not means I was not his friend and that it was NOT entertaining in the past.

Glad he has you to take up his slack in the "ridiculous debate" and "twisting words" tactic. You're doing him proud.

I did a caveat on my last post in the thread. Knew he’d be offended. But I did note in the epic 15K yarded thread that if something happened to mom he’d find another woman to latch onto.
Seems like it may have been more truth than he wanted. He did not reply. Then the thread went to the yard.

Yadkin ROCKS. He's not mentally ill and not a man-child. He just has a unique talent of rubbing 99% of the population the wrong way.

We would be lucky to have him back on this forum.

Lucky? I'm grateful that we're not lucky, if that's the case.
