Tracy Lords is still active in “B” movies. Her last appearance was as Dejah Thoris in _A Princess of Mars_, the less said about the better.

I don’t have anything to say about FDH, but I can’t believe no one’s mentioned [her underaged blind date with Weird Al Yankovich](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=12784697&postcount=171) when she was 14 years old and he was 19. I wish she would tell us why the date was “fairly disgusting.”

I heard she’s also an executive chef for Marriott…and she served with the Marines in Angola.

Well, if Snooki had _died_, tragically young, then yeah, it would be rude to come into a thread mourning her death and shit all over it.

Well, it’s better than getting a Warning for it.

As for the topic of this thread, I covered that in the thread itself. I’m actually surprised that, for once, some people actually seem to agree with me, both about the apology being useless, and the implications of the original post.

I have nothing against FDH herself, as I honestly don’t pay attention to the name of the person who writes the post unless they are extraordinarily good or bad.

Okay - I was wrong in posting in the porn thread. I was wrong to infer something against another poster. And I did not apologize in manner appropriate to those posting. Mea culpa.

I had no comprehension there was so much angst about my existence on this board. There are a handful of Dopers who have known me for several years and have met me in person. I suppose if I cared enough about this place, I could point them to this thread and have them corroborate my history. But there doesn’t seem to be much point in validating my life’s experiences or the veracity of my prior posts

I’ll take this as a sign and appease Justin Bailey and offer my farewell.

Lastly, I will take this opportunity to thank those who were kind and extended the hands of friendship. You know how to get in contact with me outside of this site, if you care to. I’d love to hear from you.

[_Plughead Rewired: Circuitry Man II_](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110851/) was worth seeing, though, and she was pretty good in it. (The **best** thing in it was Dennis Christopher as Leech.)

That’s what I was thinking, too.

_**Warning: possibly unpopular [and slightly hijacking] opinion follows**_

To be utterly and possibly politically uncorrectly candid, when I was reading those threads at the time, I remember thinking that **FDH** wasn’t so much “sharing” or “venting” or “healing” or anything, but almost…_bragging_ about how hot she was all her life, or whatever. You know, such that rapists just can’t help themselves around her. It seemed very much to me like she was reveling in a sort of “victimhood pride” about her rape experiences.

That annoyed the shit out of me, because **IF** my view of her speech and tone in those threads is accurate, it’s the sort of thing that can create resentment and boredom among listeners, and thus a more overall hostile societal environment in which rape victims have to come forward and share their trauma. I don’t deny that **FDH** was raped, and I don’t begrudge her a tiny bit of the mercy and compassion and support that any victimized human deserves.

But something about her tone and diction in those threads was…_off_. \*\*Strictly IMHO.  
\*\*  
Carry on.

No one needs or deserves to be driven from the Dope over a single insult.

And we as a community don’t need that kind of bullshit mentality being pushed.

I saw it happen once on IMDB, after a certain poster who had lied about military heroics and law enforcement service was exposed as a fraud. He deleted his account, took down his blog, and never posted again.

Obviously it wasn’t a “pit thread” since it was a different forum, but it was an example of someone who had made up a lot of tall tales and passed them off as truth leaving after someone called them on it.

Now, I really do not know if **Ho** ’s stories are all made up or not. But her leaving like this after someone questions them would make me lean towards not believing them.

Yep. ‘Sure I have several Dopers who know me personally and can confirm my story, and might even wander by to the Pit thread and post one their own once they see it… but now it’s time for me to go away and never return.’
