As everyone knows, I have been trying to get RossMAN to STOP SPENDING. Apparently its not gettting through. Even though Ross does not want me posting it, I am showing everyone here the RossFile. I am 100% serious in its contents and accuracy. This originally started out as a joke, but you can see the contents for yourself.

One website I'm going to create is to accomplish the impossible. sell my salvage titled 94 Corolla. I'll put an ad in the local newspaper with some great stats and an incredible price and point them to www.buyme.info or something like that it's gotta be a short catchy URL, I won't mention that it's a salvage title anywhere on the website until they contact me THEN I'll give them the bad news."

Although some of those instances arent 100% related, we have a problem here. RossMAN is spending way too much money. RossMAN's purchases in one year rival the gross national product of a small african nation.
I have tried so many times to convince him to get out of debt and stop spending. The LCD thread was just ONE of the many instances.
Now, I only have one thing to say to RossMAN:
You're on your own. I dont care anymore.
I am GODDAMN FVCKING sick and tired of it. I've had it with you. *kicks trashcan across room*
You just dont get it do you? I make jokes about freezing your credit cards, having an intervention, but apparently its not getting through. You have a problem. For the love of Jeebus, I'm 10 years younger than you and I can put 25% down on a 2 bedroom 2 bath.
You are 28 years old so why dont you start acting like it? I dont have the time and I dont have the energy to keep holding your hand and telling you why not to buy something. I am sick and tired of it.
Somebody else do this. I'm done here.
MrsSkoorb: RossMAN is not in denial. He realizes the problem. Wether he choses to do something about it is another story.
RossMAN: if you have comments to what I've said here, you know the number. If I'm out, my voicemail is on, leave a message.
AnandTech Moderator: If you want to lock this: fine. If you want to give me a vacation: fine. If you want to ban me: fine. But I want the mods to know something. Everything said here is true. If I have to get banned or given a vacation because I've got the guts to open the eyes of a member blind to his own actions in a public forum so be it.
