Agree to disagree. If you don't see the humor, ridiculousness, and insanity of the super-busy, super-important texxx actually taking the time to roll by batman's house, snap a couple of quick pics and drive off...well, that's your deal. Now, just to be fair, batman's offer was also ridiculous and insane. I don't take message boards seriously and don't really apologize for staring in wonderment at those that do.
I'm already engaged, set for this June. My minds changed a bit since I started this thread, perhaps due to old age. We're still not living together yet.
Coming in late to this thread and feel bad for Batman Jones. He has been very open about his struggles with mental health issues and addiction and I really really hope this doesn't mean he has fallen off the wagon. I've called him out before for his temper and have had a lot of disagreements with him but I don't think he is a bad guy. Knowing all of that I think it was a pretty low to go and show up outside his house.
I can believe it... what I can't believe is he hasn't edited it after settling down. Well look who it was, nothing should surprise you from him. ZERO @$#%s GIVEN.
You've been here for awhile and know Batman Jone's history. Do you think he was actually looking for a fight? Given that Bigtexxx also knows Batman Jone's history it would've shown more class to just let it go for what it was, a late night rant that may or may not have to do with some of the issues that he has dealt with.
So what. bigtexxx didn't do anything bad. He just accepted an invitation and offered to talk. What do you know about how the talk would have gone? Maybe he could have offered Batman Jones some help? Obviously, bigtexxx did not intend to fight. He is a guy who goes to the gym and Batman Jones has health issues. He wouldn't just beat Batman Jones up in front of his house, or do you seriously think that?! He didn't ring the bell or anything either, apparently, so it was not any more intrusive than what Batman Jones' post warranted. Probably just quickly drove by because it wasn't far and took a couple of pictures for us to have a laugh. Congrats to bigtexxx - the rockHEAD rule was followed, pictures were posted!
Really you think calling Batman Jones out and that posting pics of Batman Jone's house here including a doll head in them is just fine even knowing Batman Jones' history? It would be one thing if Bigtexxx went there to talk to Batman privately and another to post pics on Clutchfans for the rest of our enjoyment.
Building on this... you can hate on bigtexxx's political views and disagree with him, but he's clearly not a bad guy.
Your patronizing way to talk of Batman Jones is a whole lot more offensive toward Batman Jones than bigtexxx taking a couple of photos after Batman Jones himself decided to post his address.
Bigtexx is a tool. I'm surprised someone hasn't actually met up with him and hurt him by now. Then again, I guess most folks don't take him serious. Batman Jones had a lapse and let an internet douchebag get under his skin. It speaks volumes that bigtexxx actually went to his house. That lets us all know the guy is bored as hell and unstable.
The more "studies" come out, the more it shows that men despite our piggish ways BENEFIT from MARRIAGE (or from a committed stable partner). And that chasing the poon around forever CAN get old lol. I don't have the "study" link here of average men/women ages at marriage from the past 100+ years, but it shows the men's ages as being noticably CONSISTENT year to year (adjusting for life expectancy even). And its THE WOMEN who ACTUALLY arent getting into marriage at a younger age and are more choosey. Their average age at marriage rose 5-7 years or something compared to men's 2-3 years Agree on all that. I'm already past the age 35 marker, so I know its all downhill from here. Too me its become more apparent that the "old fashioned" ways of marriage and child bearing, whether it was the intent or not, actually makes MORE SENSE than the modern social liberation ideals we have now toward that. Just saying without getting too wordy, that the traditional marrying younger and appalling "16 and Pregnant" stuff and "quinceaneras" even though its icky, younger people procreating is the best bet toward actually producing more "non-defected" humans and is a basis of what marriage is about in the first place. People are LIVING LONGER now, and HAVE MORE TO DO. But it does NOT mean that our FERTILITY evolution has CHANGED much with it. It might be WORSE with modern living if anything. It does NOT MEAN that people who want to wait until later are "ignorant" and "naive" because its just recently that the facts are revealing themselves and arent public and widespread enough for people to make decisions. And yes older people can still have healthy children, but much more risk of defects. Its up to the person to decide.
Guess it shows the "Ignore" function really can work how its supposed to. It took me a while to even catch on with the other shenanigans going on in here. Which means several people happen to be on the ignore ( "Honey Bear" name, huh. Finally visibly sign of Ronny losing his mind over there.)
Guys, It's way worse for a woman to have kids after 35 than it is for a man. Hell it's not good for a woman to have kids even after 30. This is why if you are a man and you want to wait to have kids then just get yourself a younger girl.
yea Ronny is deff Honey Bear, such a lame schtick is impossible to miss. WHy doesn't he have the "Former poster named Ronny" like ATW, myself and many others have?
Everyone is different, but we are all the same in many ways. Who wouldn't line up to marry Jessica Alba? Marriage is different than dating. Sometimes your girl is nothing special and you don't see yourself having kids with her. Chances are one or both in that kind of relationship are waiting for someone better to come along. The last thing you want to do is get a girl you don't like pregnant. Not sure if camping outside his house is any smarter. Why would he drive up there for a chat and sit outside his house in his car like he is scared? Did Batman call him and really ask him nicely to come over and have a chat about marriage? Everyone either has him on their ignore list or ignores his posts. It didn't take long before everyone realized who he was.
