His posts have all been on the depressing side of late, but hey that’s the nature of most threads these days. I reckon if we wait, there’ll be a twist to the OP. ---

Okay, which one of you bastards ran him off? Because I know it couldn’t possibly have been me. Of course, when I say “bastards”, I mean that in the most loving way. 🙂 ---

Pat, for me, — My ability to intelectualize allowed me to rationalize which got me institutionalized. It is not a thinking thing in most cases but a doing thing. Take the action, the next right thing. Trudge the road to happy destiny, cause it is hard to skip when you are ankle deep in \_ \_ \_ \_. ---

Whatever you need to do **Euty**. Just know that a lot of people here are behind you. Personally, I can’t recall the least problem that I’ve ever had with your moderating. ---

I think, before Euty was interrupted, he was preparing to share with us some previously lost, humorous essays from our former president, Dwight D. Eisenhower. He misspelled his thread title and OP, which was supposed to read, “Ike Wit.” ---

> [@](#): > > Making friends, I guess. I still don’t really have any. Sweetie, I’m the same way. in the past few months my last few friends left me crying in their dust. Then I realized that the people here cared for me more than any of my IRL friends EVER did. I got hugged here more times in a week than I got in a year in the “real world.” My point is that we love you, here, there are THOUSANDS of Dopers that care. Don’t give up. {{{Euty}}} ---

All you need to do is email me and you might find that you have a friend that you just didn’t know yet. Don’t be shy, I’m going to be my usual @ssholish self and email you right now. Quite simply, anyone with the intelligence to possess a copy of Disney’s “Der Furher’s Face” has got to be worthy of far more consideration than you are currently getting. All the best, Chris ---

Euty, I echo the sentiments posted above and hope that you didn’t mean you are quitting the SDMB. I love you even more than manhattan and John Corrado, I swear! Would it help if I showed you my breasts? [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-quit/41233.md?page=1) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-quit/41233.md?page=3)
