I wonder what percentage of people on here have serious mental health issues. It’s gotta be 10-20%, right?

I'm guessing these people live super privileged lives, and never get called out on anything, so they can't handle it.

If you've been #### on in real life message board drama seems laughably insignificant. No one could say anything to me here I haven't been told to my face.

I'd say they should chill out but I find it so entertaining.

Now I have to pm you that! You are just asking for it with this post.

I am craving Arby’s now you fataing arsehole! A beef and cheddar right meow.

It’s a war crime that we only have two Arby’s in Calgary.

Is there a “no names allowed” rule here?

They're all located in the same region in China, so would be easy to find, and due to their very limited range of food they eat, it'd be fairly easy to kill them all off by eliminating their access to bamboo through various ways anyone can come up with. But yeah, my pick would be the Giant Panda though I'd never do it as I love them, because who doesn't love pandas?

Maybe Koalas. You just need to give one or two an STD and they’re basically wiped out.

I called him a slunt. Gets around the blocker and an homage to 4X4.

This is probably spot on. I’ve had more than one of them, when prodded a bit, go off about how they’re standing up to a bully, meanwhile they’ve said some of the worst, most “personal” stuff in the process, so when I naturally point out that it’s also bullying they ####ing lose it haha. In their mind, anyone who is mildly rude to them is the worst thing that’s ever happened to them, while they have no problem going way over the line.

They’ve got no banter, no chill. Highly entertaining.

Haha oh man, it feels lame but I’m not going to out this latest guy specifically because I think it probably is mental illness. A year ago he told me to “walk away” via PM and since then I get a “#### you” every few months lol.

My favourite for sure was Lanny, who sent me one titled “#### yourself #######…”. I’ll never forget that one.

And of course fotze keeps PMing me calling me a slunt. I think he’s working up the courage to ask for nudes.

That's terrible. I feel so sorry for you.

My favourite I've received was from someone that PMed to tell me the Simpsons were so 90s and lame when I posted an image of Homer wearing a Flames jersey. I thought it was a ridiculous and funny thing to PM someone so I posted it in the GDT without his username and he still freaked out and threatened to sue CP.

He's since been banned.

Sorry about that. I changed my avatar to honour the famous location on Sunset Blvd that closed recently. They seem to be on the decline everywhere. Weirdly, one is supposed to open in Strathmore.

I have got nothing weird except from Sliver. Kind of disappointing. Thought I would at least have warranted one unhinged DM.

That’s because you’re too nice. Tell someone they can’t read and you never know, a few months to a year or two later you might get a little surprise in your inbox.

I’ve also had a lot of really nice PMs. The vast majority are just nice chats or the “can you believe this guy?” kind of thing. I’m very pro-PM. Love the PMs.

[Timbo]

As I don’t have the time or the patience to PM you all. May I take this opportunity to say “EF you “or “you are great”. Please self evaluate and use some intellectual honesty to sort yourselves into which category applies.

JFC, this again?

Note to other users: never tell Wormius you enjoy his posts. He'll lose sleep over it for the next two years.

We could have been best friends, but now I'm not so sure.

By species, do plants count? Aren't clone type like bananas also getting wiped out on their own due to some virus/fungus or something?

I still don't get the "what would you choose and why?" Part of the question though. "Because even though I'd feel bad about it and would go down in history as an #######, if I monetized the videos of me saying I was the one that made the thing extinct, I'd be rich."?

Unless the I misunderstood and the "why" Part is why do you think that species is easy to eradicate?

I'd wipe out the Cave and Basin snails by going and sitting in the hot springs every day until they are gone. I figure a week, tops.

When you’re literally the only person to have DM’d me out of the blue, something so bizarre, it does tend to stick with you.

I wanna air out this PM I got years ago (no names of course) as it might be one of the most aggressive messages Ive ever received. There was no prior PM from me but we had argued online earlier that night.

“ I will but-chug 86L of $0.25 draft and snort six lines off your deceased mother's tits. I don't even know if she's dead!

Coward.”


He still posts here and apologized and explained why it was posted, and times were tough for him, but that singular sentence had some bangers in it and it still makes me laugh.

But yeah, you think there’s a chance my posting style does it? No #### lol. I get posters trying so hard to “call me” on something they call me ignorant for not praising Swiss Chalet lol.

I can give you some tips if you want a spicy PM once in a while. We’ll get you from boring to blazing in no time. One way trip to poster flavour town.

Didn't think the green text/eye roll emoji was required on that last sentence.

I don't have the stamina for your posting style anyway, so I'll pass on the offer for a ticket to PepsiFree flavour town.

Worst pm I got was from the mods saying this guy was threatening myself and pylon and knew where we worked and that we were pedophiles. That’s when the mods allowed me to peace out.

I still have his email address that I send cryptic messages to. The mods were kind enough to give me that.

This is the email.

He likes dick pics. At least I hope he does because he’s gotten a few
