How can you just use any name? Do they not check your ID?

They dont if you send under 1000 dollars

They don't check your ID, but I still use my real name... just because when I want them to WU me back, I don't want the book to try to give me shit about it. They don't advertise that you can WU withdraw, and you can only do it if you deposit that way... so I am just worried about picking the money up. Probably nothing, but still.

Watching 'The Day After Tomorrow' on FX. I bet SPX thinks this movie is realistic too.

You need to quit fucking with me.

I will if you'll drop the armchair psychology nonsense. Deal?

I will if you quit being a fucking dickhead. Seriously, everyone knows you're the resident cynic who never has anything good to say about anyone and always likes to argue.

But the negativity gets old.

I've had to defend you to more than one person who came to me and said you were nothing but a troll who wants to stir shit up. Don't make me feel like a fool for making that decision.

I said nothing inflammatory yesterday. You were the one getting mad and namecalling because I enjoyed a B movie in a different way than you.

If someone disagrees with you, instead of actually discussing the issue, you check out with some bullshit comment.

I also get the impression that you think you're better than others.

People want to be your friend, but you make it hard sometimes.

If I'm 'checking out with a bullshit comment' it's generally because I'm too lazy to explain how nitrous really works. And I discuss things frequently, but your confirmation bias only allows you to remember the times I don't.

I think you take this way too seriously.

[poopoo333]

I think sometimes you take things people say too seriously X. Or you're just REALLY easy to get a rise out of.

Okay.

All I'll say is that PMs are a bitch. I've been getting comments about you all the way back from the Junkie forum days. I went back and forth several times with members over there about you, and I've done the same thing over here.

As for taking shit too seriously, well, I don't know. We're all real people behind these keyboards. And some of the people here I consider real friends.

[zY|]

What? How would you even get into these discussions? I will not believe people from Junkie forums are just randomly PMing you to call me an asshole.

Okay, as far as the Junkie stuff goes, it was a while back because I don't even go over there anymore, and I'm not gonna name names because they would make me an asshole, but yes, you came up in PMs with a certain member over. And that member said that he had had similar discussions with other members, including moderators.

As far as IWS goes, well, I'm for damn sure not going to call anyone out, but I am a mod so I do have discussions with people about members on this site and you have come up. All I'll say is that you have been around long enough now that everyone is used to your bullshit and so a lot of things are overlooked, but that doesn't make it cool.

[zY|]

That's fair, but just know that you start shit with me just as much as I start it with you.

[SPX]

That's fair, but just know that you start shit with me just as much as I start it with you.

Sometimes I do, but I guess I usually look at is as revenge for prior offenses. In any case, I don't mind some good light-hearted fencing every now and then.

What bothers me is when you run from arguments because someone has posted a response that you have no good reply for, or when you make comments that belittle others as if you're something special.

When I've defended you in the past, it's because I think that below your cynical surface you're probably an all right guy. I remember a while back when I posted a betting thread on Sherdog where some dickheads made some stupid comments and you came to my defense. I also remember you helping to educate me via PM on the intricacies of downloading MMA events.

So you're okay. You just don't know when to stop sometimes.
