Yep-thats me, for the most part anyway, sometimes my fingers will get away from my brain and I will post something I regret though. This has been a very busy year for me. Snowleopard was a true genius and like so many of them she was crazy, at least IMO. Bigeasysnow seemed like good people to me though we never interacted much. I miss TanTSX too....a fellow CT resident. |

BES was just one of those people who attracted drama, even though she didn't invite it. i suspect most of it came from the pointy elbows brigade, who wanted to prove that they would indeed talk shit to a pretty girl. it's a shame--she had a lot to say, but it kinda got lost behind the 'pretty girl' label that got stapled to her around here. that must have been tiresome for her. her perspective is missed. dan...i don't know about dan. he could be loud and obnoxious, but you need that kind of energy at any party.

Hi y'all
Quote HistoryQuoted:
I'd be one hard sneeze away from a stroke if I was being confused with Snowleopard. You could run a pressure washer off my BP. 
Quote HistoryQuoted:
Quoted:
She is doing just fine, too, and regularly says to tell you hello, Jane. Some folks have odd reactions to pretty girls, especially smart ones with a brash internet persona. Eventually, it's a waste of time to deal with it. I guess it's been long enough that people don't remember her enough not to confuse her with Snowleopard, which is kind of funny. I'd be one hard sneeze away from a stroke if I was being confused with Snowleopard. You could run a pressure washer off my BP.
It's funny, but I'm not at all offended. Thinking back, I wonder I was so hard on her because she reminded me of my own oddities and social shortcomings. She may have been annoying at times, and she may not have had the best grip on reality, but she never fought back or got ugly. She (or he) took the abuse with a lot more class than I would have. |

I used to feel like I fit in here with paranoid gun nuts, but it seems like there's been a trend towards normalcy in the arfcom populace. These folks don't shower with a gun under a towel next to the tub, they don't give fake names for baristas to mark on their cups because of persec. And they want everything to be light and positive.

I'm pretty sure my skills have gone to shit. My regular range is still closed, I've only taken in one pistol class since training with Rictus, and school bills are just destroying my gun class fund. Rictus has his work cut out for him next time I see him. |

I still take the 1911 in there though, but since I love a hot bath more than a shower, there's so much steam that I'm sure it'll rust up if I don't immediately lube it up. My bushing is too tight to get off by hand, so I don't bother with it after a bath anymore like I did on my other guns. By the time I wrap it up, it's too hard to get to to use it. Maybe you'll feel normal if I tell you I sort of booby trap the house so I'll hear anyone breaking in. lol |

Um, yeah. You're so reliable in that regard.
You saw I shaved my head today. Just don't put your hands there.
Just saw you posted a pic of last time in the flying brass thread.

hmmm...never saw anything from snowleopard that i thought of as genius--she just struck me as an odd bird. but we didn't cross paths much, so i'll take your word for it. BES was just one of those people who attracted drama, even though she didn't invite it. i suspect most of it came from the pointy elbows brigade, who wanted to prove that they would indeed talk shit to a pretty girl. it's a shame--she had a lot to say, but it kinda got lost behind the 'pretty girl' label that got stapled to her around here. that must have been tiresome for her. her perspective is missed. dan...i don't know about dan. he could be loud and obnoxious, but you need that kind of energy at any party.

Yep-thats me, for the most part anyway, sometimes my fingers will get away from my brain and I will post something I regret though. This has been a very busy year for me. Snowleopard was a true genius and like so many of them she was crazy, at least IMO. Bigeasysnow seemed like good people to me though we never interacted much.

You make a good point about BES. It apparently only takes an evening for such to come to fruition. |

While I think she had something to contribute, I'm not sure I agree with that highlighted part. Didn't she have some sort of club devoted to leg humpers who were lining up to be her minions? Again, not saying that she didn't have something to offer the site, but IMO she had a hand in inviting some of the drama. |

Like Jane said, the behind the back shit talk is what did it for me, but I did visit again. On those visits I found arfcom had changed. I used to feel like I fit in here with paranoid gun nuts, but it seems like there's been a trend towards normalcy in the arfcom populace. These folks don't shower with a gun under a towel next to the tub, they don't give fake names for baristas to mark on their cups because of persec. And they want everything to be light and positive. I miss the negative Nancies with a plan to kill everyone in the room. Quote HistoryQuoted:

The tech forums have become repetitive and bland, with SMEs more scarce than I remember and some pretending going on, too, and GD feels like the centerpiece of the site. Despite there being a good number of folks who enjoy good humor and intelligent conversation in GD, the experience is soiled by a significant number of posters steeped in immaturity, gorging themselves on manufactured drama and thinking that everything is their business. So, no, I don't post much. I hang out on the side here with some friends and a few professional contacts, and that's about it.

There were three ways to handle the minion situation: 1. Ignore it and go on with life. 2. Participate on some level. 3. Get angry about it and lash out. If anyone lashed out, it wasn't for anything you did. |
