Manhattan. Moderator. Prince among men. Twinkie. Will be much missed. See you around the campus.
I’m very sorry to hear this, Manhattan. Coming so late to the farewell, there’s not much to add - other than to subscribe to all of the above! I guess the increase in your workload IRL means it’s back to living on tums, rogaine and vitamin E, eh?
Best wishes and thank you.
Well I for one, am not sorry to see him go. I think Manhattan swore too much and made people feel bad.
Just kidding! He didn’t swear too much.
No, really, good luck!
I’d say thanks, but I hear being a moderator is such a thankless job, that I’d hate to screw that up too.
Banny, we’ll miss you. Moderately. Mrs. stockton says hi. Drop us a line when you come down again.
Damn, I’ve said “GQ wouldn’t be the same without manhattan” before, but I never thought that dreaded day would come.
Priceless. I will miss the controversy and digs when i wasn’t on the receiving end. Now, off to post a slew of opinions in the wild wild west that GQ is likely to become.
Yep, a diamond geezer. Manny, your contribution really has been one of the most important in creating the huge success that the board now is. I wish you well, hope to see you around and I’m sure you now appreciate it really was all about the oil
Ta ta.
dude, much thanks for the hard work. now go flog some derivatives…
ok, why is everyone saying HE? I always thought the indomitable Manny was of the female persuasion!
Is there an fund we can contribute to prop up old ex SDMB moderators in their old age?
I’m all for the painful, embarrassing mocking of the idiotic, so this is indeed a sad day.
I rarely, if ever, interacted with you, manny, but I’ve admired from afar. I wish you the best.
I will miss your comments (and swearing) when you close threads, manny. Since you’re not a moderator now, you can start pit threads about people, so maybe that will be a good substitute.
Best of luck, man. I hope you stop in from time to time.
So sorry to see you go manny because even as a relative newbie, your wit and across-the-board fairness was hard not to notice. You’ll be missed terribly and I hope you pop back in with an occasional quip to satiate the masses.
Good luck, low stress and many happy trails to you!
And thankfully, I didn’t add either my 20 bucks to the pool OR prattle on about my “1920’s style death ray”. I owe it all to you man. Ya saved me some heartache.
It’s a little delayed but I just wanted to thank you for you all of your wisdom, hard work and dedication on and for this message board. And of course, for being a great friend and drinking buddy in real life. Good luck!
I can’t believe I missed this!!
Manny NEVER badgered me.
A few months ago I was wandering around my old, old threads, seeing what a buffoon I was, and came across a thread that was created during a really scary week. It gave me a warm feeling when I saw it the first time, and again when I revisited it.
Thanks for sticking around so long, Manny. You’ll be sorely missed.
