Hilarious. The guy who admitted to having a mental illness and having created a second account (about which everyone is totally ok btw) claims not having created a third account (which posts in the exact same style)

Take your pills, Chuck.....

What was hilarious (in a pathetic way) was you brazenly accusing a NEW poster in ANOTHER FORUM of being my alt.

To his credit, he was very gracious toward you, even though you clearly didn't deserve to be treated kindly.

I’m going to say this again since we apparently need a reminder:

Posts like this are abusive and will not be tolerated as long as I’m here. DO NOT get this personal with one another and DO NOT stigmatize one another’s mental health.

Bob will take the day off to think about it.


I expected more from BobTheSlob. Do better!

β€œHeels over head” appeared in the 14th century, referring to the physical act. The word order changed in the 18th century (we aren’t exactly sure why), but was still used to describe the literal, physical act. In the 1800s, it finally started to be used more metaphorically, describing the recklessness of emotions and typically tied to being in love (but continued literal usage

Cool info. I wonder why it was ever applied to being in love though. Pretty odd metaphor.


I have had known mental health issues that have held me back. My good qualities (mostly) make up for it but my life has been very up or down. There are lots of brilliant minds in the poker world with mental health issues which if respected and treated well do not harm their careers.


As a general rule, it’s not cool to mock someone for something they didn’t choose


Did men choose to be men?


Do you choose to constantly be a ****?


Yes I believe so, but he does it in the mistaken belief that he's being clever.

I think you are mistaking him for Trolly.

Nope. So you can’t make fun of me for it. I was born this way, sadly.

Why am I catching stray shots here.


by Crossnerd m

I’m not a misandrist, but even if I were, comparing that to misogyny is a false symmetry as women lack the institutional power to oppress.

Do you think I was oppressing anybody?

I was simply giving my honest anecdotal account of a date I went on. I have no hate or contempt for the girl. I feel like you invented an alternate story here and went with it. You seemed to think I had nefarious intentions when I said I had cleaned my house in preparation for her staying with me. I simply didn't want her to drive home drunk.


Are posters allowed to call other posters "subhuman"?

Super weird (but incredibly unsurprising) that’s what bothered you and not me accusing you of date raping women

I have never raped a girl so why should that bother me coming from you.

Also, I thought you had me on ignore.


“having mental health issues” isn’t even a serious negative. Tiger woods the greatest golfer of all time has had mental health issues. Mqny of the greatest poker players of all time including stuunger or tom dwan have had mental health issues. The early 2000’s celebrities I grew up with had mental health issues.

When i first started playing poker barry greenstein told me not to worry about it because many pros have problems.


Mongidig, can you explain why this comment from biggerboat made you want to quote β€œpuke in mouth”



by mongidig m

Are posters allowed to call other posters "subhuman"?

Sadly, the answer to that question seems to be "Yes."


mongidig, can you explain why you said men and women are basically seperate species?


by jalfrezi m

Yes I believe so, but he does it in the mistaken belief that he's being clever.

One doesn't have to be especially clever to say things that are almost self-evidently true. Curious that such simple observations create such consternation within the Leftist Mob of Pea Brains (TM Pending).

I'm not a fan of the "look how nice of a guy I am" type of post. I'm sure many of us cherish our mothers and grandmothers etc. Do we really need to come out and brag about it on an internet forum?

If mongidig said that, it might be one of the few things than he and CN might agree on.

Have you ever read the book "Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus"? Men and women are wired differently. I don't think this is controversial.

I was gonna say something similar. I don't think there was anything clever about his post other than it was dead on.
