    I never had a problem with Sokar, we'd chit chat about guitars and Hendrix. :shrug:

    I'm not a big fan of yours, but you make an interesting point. Tamar's specialty is blaming the target for the perpetrator's actions. Her onus against me goes all the way back to her assumption that I was trolling Elwood (because of a thread in the Green Room that I hadn't even read) because of a generic comment that I made in a thread Lanzman posted in the Red Room. Life is filtered through her particular perspective. Whattaya gonna do? :shrug:

    Edit: Never mind -- did it myself.

    I gave you some gentle ribbing about your then-current Hunter S. Thompson av, and it's a stretch to characterize it as even that harsh. If you think that constitutes "coming at you", you're welcome to your opinion.

    I find it impossible to view Tamar as a sympathetic victim given her history.

    Tamar's problem is that the current administration doesn't have a fetish for her the way previous owners did. Elwood & Lanz tolerated her indiscretions because she flashed some cleavage and ran interference with anyone who questioned their decisions. Unfortunately for her, the new regime didn't share that fondness for her shenanigans and quickly relegated her to a corner office in the basement. Tamar has been a captain's woman for many years and she liked it. Is it any wonder she didn't react well to has-been status?

    Oh yeah? How so?

    And before you answer, tell me why I should believe anything you have to say.

    No no, you've got your narrative all worked out in that pointy li'l head of yours. Run with it, Flashy.

    By all means, if my "narrative" is flawed, enlighten me as to what your actual thoughts/feelings/opinions concerning Tamar.

    But still, tell me why I should believe what will inevitably be your own self-serving narrative?

    Wow, it wasn't even true? It would have been a shitty thing to say even if it were factually accurate, but if it isn't... wow.

    I don't remember him at all. But seeing how easily you and Bunnie of all people trolled him in to a gibbering wreck, I have made my judgement. He's retarded. And gay.

    Then the only clear option is to engineer your time here such that it does not please you.

    I always miss the opportunity to use it though :(

    In all seriousness, I'm sure the data are out there somewhere.

    I don't think message board will die out completely. ..people still enjoy having a place online to be anonymous and air opinions they wouldn't otherwise share with folks they know.

    What the hell are you talking about? There is no "onus" against you.

    You just act like an irritating cunt these days who can't and won't leave anyone alone if you don't like them. When I stopped talking to you and even left the board for awhile what do you do? Put me in your signature. And you do things like that all the time to plenty of people. When people don't enjoy your brand of trolling it's immediate victim mode.

    As for Grout, I believe he implied being a member there during one of his and Castle's bitchfights. If I am remembering wrong, I apologize. Maybe I am mixing you up with someone else.

    I'd put money down on Grout being a SaintLucifer dual. I embarrassed the hell out of that fetid lump of poop over at TK, so if that's where he came from, better than 90% odds that's who he is.

    It would also explain his instant dislike of me, as well. :rolleyes:

    I question the term "instant dislike" you should review our history
