> [@Boyo\_Jim](#): > > You have a very ugly and recurring habit of suggesting other posters are lying when they disagree with you. You are aptly named, and not really fit for civilized company. Perhaps I do. I’m not proud of how I have acted in this thread. It was so bad that I thought to myself, “monkey, you’re not just being an idiot, you are being a complete asshole, and maybe as bad a person as you are accusing others of being. Shut up and get your head back together” So I stepped away from the computer. But I’m back now. I still don’t like what **Lute Skywatcher** did. But, fuck, some of the things I said may make me more of a dick than he was. I want to apologize to everybody for that. ---

One other thing, though. I don’t understand the breast implant references. Can somebody provide a brief synopsis of whatever happened there? And again. I fully admit I was a complete asshole earlier in this thread, and I’m sorry. ---

I think the breast implant thing and the gastric bypass thing are referencing the same rumor that OpalCat took money off posters on her Fathom forum to get a Brazilian body job done. Pretty positive none of it happened on this site. ---

> [@Loach](#): > > For one the Pitting started before the announcement that he had depression. I am not required to remember everyone’s posting history. For another as many have pointed out, depression is not a gateway to begging. An apology should not contain the reason why it’s not your fault. If you have a condition that might be worsened by criticism, step away from the Dope. Its not like my life is all rainbows and unicorns. If I post something stupid I would expect a good pitting. IIRC I have been pitted once. It did not go the way the OP had hoped. And if anything, using one’s depression as an excuse to be a douche is especially heinous. Saying, “I have depression!” is not a get out of jail free card, and I HATE it when people try to play that game. ---

The main problem with using a psychological disorder as an excuse is that there are only five people on the entire internet who don’t have one. None of those five post on the SDMB. ---

I’m definitely stealing this. I’d apologize in advance, but I have “funny-comment-Internet-kleptomania”, so clearly I can’t be held responsible for my actions. ---

Holy shit, this board is full of harsh assholes. Should he have asked for money? No. But the response is so over the top and ridiculous that his silly request that people pay for his bunny wabbit’s AC instead of him touching his savings (or whatever it was) seems almost reasonable in comparison. Trainwrecking his original topic was more than sufficient, 6 pages of pitting and trainwrecking his “sorry” thread, sheesh, talk about overkill. ---

Trainwrecking his original topic was more than sufficient, 6 pages of pitting and trainwrecking his “sorry” thread, sheesh, talk about overkill. I’m sorry, but is there a quota on pit threads now? If I had known that six pages was going to be too much I would have insisted people stop posting after five pages. Unless that also would have been too much, in which case I would have insisted they stop after four. ---
