Oh yeah, he was the coolest guy. I'm not dumb enough to trash a guy in their RIP thread, but damn if I'm not tempted. Whatever, he added color to the place, and had a grasp of the social graces that belied his intellect. That's the best I've got.

I didn't have any problem with him. I think "added color" is a good description.
 
....but...but...
Cyberdyne Systems Series T-850 Model 101 wasn't supposed to execute him until July 4, 2032. 🙁

Where's the link to his Facebook page?

How did he die?

He died just hours ago but his family is already laying it on thick on his FB page?
 
It would probably be in bad taste to link to his FB, but if we don't have an obituary posting within a few days Scholzpdx may be due for a ban.
 
Wow. Update us with more info... cause of death, age. 😵
Just shows you'll never know when death happens to you.

Holy crap. If this is true then that's really sad. I'd always likened him to the others from P&N, but none of that really matters in the end. We all post here together. That would be the 4th or 5th since last January.

Hoping it isn't true. 🙁

Why the fuck would it be in bad taste? Dude's dead.

Perhaps because people with your notion of tact would go there to mock his family or memory. That becomes a problem for this site when they inevitably make the connection between those people and this forum.

Sure, we could just as easily go there to say nice things, but this is the internet we're talking about here.

Pretty much how I feel. RIP if true, though...Death at a young age sucks for everyone

I was trying to hard to get on his shitlist, though. :\ (that is the best I've got)

On what basis do you have any authority to claim that I would attack or mock his family or his memory?

I think you're the one with the tact problem.

Sure, you could have easily said something nice in your post but instead you chose a personal character assassination toward someone you don't even know.

But hey... this is the internet we're talking about here.
 
Serious?

If true, not the nicest guy, but I'm pretty ambivalent about him. There are worse people on here.
 
his last post in a thread of mine (Clarification, the last time he posted in one of my threads)

I had a colonoscopy and I had Blue Cross Blue Shield and Transworld as a supplemental. Well, after all was said and done I was left with a 1,500 dollar bill. Transworld said they needed some kind of fucking code on the bills and the hospital said they had everything they needed. I lost my job and the bill went to collections, from there it went to a lawyer firm where he passed it onto a judge. Now I'm paying this schmuck $50/month because I can't afford anymore. Will be paid off by April. You don't want your bill's hitting a lawyers desk, he threatened to take my damn property FFS!

So much for insurance! :thumbsdown: Obumercare? Yeah fuck you! Even worse.
