shouldnt make a difference. i bet obama's kids would still miss him as much as your kids would miss you. i figured as much - lying about having cancer in order to score political points on a basketball message board is about as douchetastically low one can get. even worse is lying about cancer in order to justify/defend people making jokes about praying to god for the death of the president. you are truly in a class all your own. indeed, liar. why should anyone believe you? but you are willing to lie about having it in order to get "one up" on someone on a basketball message board. if you really had friends "dying" of cancer i dont think you would have lied about having it yourself. inappropriate remarks like praying to god to kill someone or lying about having cancer on a basketball message board in order to score political points? sure you are...tell "bobby" we said hi! how much respect do you show for others when you lie about having cancer in order to score political points on a basketball message board? i dont believe you. you are a liar. unless it a public figure, right liar? just like how tschmal was making a point in a discussion when he said he wished you would get cancer, you liar.
Is this where I say **** TSchmal? Sorry you had your feathers ruffled, but so did I. I offer no excuses; I offer an explanation about what I was doing. It was an artifice designed to expose the ugliness of TSchmal's post. If he had responded normally, this would have been over long ago... long before you made your post even.
Yes, don't take responsibility, it's all TSchmal's fault. None of it is because of anything you did. It's only on the shoulders of someone else.
If you guys just want to have fun with this and blast away with both guns, we can all do that. But since some feathers seem to be ruffled, I'm trying to explain what I was doing. It was a legitimate artifice intending to bring about some measure of contrition from someone who had wished harm on me-- kidding or not it is not appropriate and not appreciated-- especially when you have real people in your life going through this battle. It doesn't really matter if anyone in particular believes me or not-- that's up to you. Each of you has your own motivations, some of which I am suspect to say the least. But dredging up all this immature silliness is making this whole thing linger. I'm in it for the long-run because I knew what I was doing, I knew my intentions, and I will defend myself from these frivolous attacks. I was sorely disappointed that TSchmal didn't apologize immediately-- which he should have done.
When did I not take responsibility for what I posted? I posted it; it's there plain as day. I never denied posting it. If TSchmal had had the decency to apologize for posting something inappropriate about me in particular in any reasonable time frame, this would not have been an issue. My posting was a deliberate attempt to make him feel sheepish about his post. He has no responsibility to be respectful so he takes days to respond and this little exercise spins out of control. I knew I'd get excoriated for coming clean about this. I should have truly lied and just let the story of my cancer survival live on I guess.
You should seriously consider going to a therapist. I'm not kidding. I had sympathy for you because my mother was recently diagnosed with cancer and started chemo last week. Again, the only reason I mentioned it, something I would ordinarily never bring up on a message board, was because you said you had had cancer yourself. Then that turns out to be a lie. Instead of immediately apologizing to me, which any person with an ounce of integrity would have done, you continue with your self-centered excuses for your behavior. It is incredible. You need to seek help. And while you are at it, go **** yourself.
Frankly, you pretending to have cancer to defend a nonsensical, hypocritical, and plainly idiotic position from a bunch of anonymous internet nerds is beyond offensive. If you actually have friends with cancer, you just made light of their plights beyond anything I have a capacity to articulate. In the words of Deckard, "Go **** yourself." Good bye. For real.
You aren't taking responsibility that what you posted was wrong. You are claiming that if it wasn't for someone else nobody would be mad that you lied about having cancer.
Surely they would. I've never wished him dead. Does this have something to do with me? The aim was not political in the least; it was to show TSchmal what an unintended consequence would be of his posting those ill-wishes on me-- kidding or not. Again, I've not been praying to God for the death of President Obama. Do you have something here for me? Here's the thread I started: http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=168680&highlight=richard+quick Believe it or not but it's hard to deny reality... It's not about something as childish as getting "one up." It's about not posting trash such as this: I made no such remarks about Obama and I didn't post this: You really should be ashamed of yourself. Again, it was about civility? What political point do you see me angling for? See the link about Richard Quick. I also posted the one about Bobby. Need more because I might be able to locate Robert's online obituary from the winter... Did I say anything like that? Is that your belief? Are you wanting me to agree with you or something? It was a personal attack on me and it was tasteless. I saw the parallel; I didn't take it personally. He's just being the loudmouth that he is, but it was inappropriate regardless of the intent.
