Again, say what you’d say if you were standing in front of the guy’s parents. If that’s it, then it might be time to rethink things.

You’ve got a pretty well-publicised job at a car dealership. On a personal level, if this turns out to be much different than your assumptions, posts like this being very public and linkable to you certainly won’t help you any. Think of yourself, at least.
Oh give it a rest.

I would fully retract any statements I made if it is proven he was trying to rescue baby kittens he heard meowing in the wall while he was mistakenly in the women’s washroom climbing in the ceiling. I have no issues with his family, friends or loved ones. My comments have been directed squarely at the guy hiding in a women’s bathroom wall.

Odds are pretty certain, this guy was trying to watch women defecate. I have no issues with being known as a person with low tolerance for peeping toms and thief’s. I have zero tolerance in the workplace or in my private life for either. And I’m sure those that employee me are glad I’m 100% intolerant to those issues. If I caught someone peeping or thieving in my dealership not only would I fire the person on the spot, I would have them arrested.

And my posting habits on this site are no secret to my co-workers. Many of them read what I post, and lurk this site.

Off color humour is exactly what it is. All I said is “Looks like he went A-wall.” Tacky. Yes. Poor taste. Sure. But this is nothing new on any message board. But once again, here you are, sympathizing with what is likely a weirdo and somehow making him the victim.

There is zero reason I can think of, that does not involve the commission of a crime, that places a dead man in a wall.

Actually, I’m sympathising with his family, namely his father, who Timbo said is very grief stricken, and who isn’t really being stopped in any way from reading the things you write.

People can go ahead and call me butthurt or claim I’m sympathising with a pervert, sticks and stones, but all I’m saying is that this a real human being, somebody who is dead, whose local family is close enough that a poster here knows them, and people should at least think about that.

Regarding your inability to see another reason why he was where he was, that’s on you. If you recall, there was a girl who died in Vancouver a few years (?) ago, found in a water tank on a roof. Still to this day, nobody is sure how it happened, but it happened. Jumping to conclusions just isn’t helpful to anyone.

As a Mother and a loser of both parents and even a few friends, if one of them passed like this, the last thing I would be doing is going to hockey forums or comment sections to read about their deaths. If you Google a death to someone you know, I don’t think you were ever that close. You would know the story and not need to seek out info.

Well, it looks like PepsiFree is finally the straw that broke the camels back. I’m publicly asking for my account to be closed after 10 years. It’s been fun to be a contributor, donator, and to meet some of the great people on this site whether it was as a valued client or someone that won a set of tickets.

Like so many I have met IRL on this site, I share the opinion that what was once a fun goofy place to chat with people of common interest, is now controlled by a small group of highly intolerant, vindictive, SJWs that are driving every ounce of fun that this place once had away. I’ve had a threat made to my workplace before and after Pepsi’s veiled threat... well, “This #### just ain’t worth it anymore.” And to be honest, I just don’t have the time or energy to argue anymore. Im doing this publicly so there is no backing out.

Good luck to everyone, I’ve met some amazing people here, and we’ll over a hundred clients. If you still need me you know where to find me.

Now mods, please permanently Lifetime suspend me.

The real tragedy is we never even got to see the corpse, I'm picturing something like Han Solo frozen in carbonite, but with his dick in his hand. How do you just throw a blanket over that and wheel it away?

Is the bathroom still closed? Is anyone able to confirm if there is a hilarious perv silhouette etched in the wall still?

LOL you think he was threatening you? It came across as him referencing the last time someone messed with your personal life. Talk about going overboard.

Why is it the people who react the most butthurt are the ones calling out snowflakes, sjw's etc?

Honestly it's just another form of bullying, taking a page from people like Tomi Lauren, if you don't agree with me then your wrong, name calling ensues, blah blah.

There's nothing wrong with people not agreeing with you. If you can't tolerate an open discussion maybe you need to look in the mirror.

Why mention his personal life at all? Why would your mind even go there? Referencing someones professional life in order to coerce them into behaving in a certain way is close enough to a threat to be treated like one.

Someone from the board knows the family of the deceased.

Telling someone to have a little tact and reminding them that they of all people should know about consequences to actions here is not a threat.

It isn't a threat if I tell my son to be careful on the stairs because last time the screwed around on them he fell and hurt himself. Sometimes people need to be reminded.

You can do all of that without mentioning someones workplace.
