IIRC - he recently had to switch jobs, and his new position had to do with going out to sites for long periods of time... think going out to an oil-well in the ocean or something. I can't recall exactly what.

He's a good natured conservative guy whom you likely won't agree with. Hot button issue is anything to do with gays.

Well not necessarily you but many here were pretty harsh on the guy but yes he seems good natured, I would have a beer with him, if he was buying.

Good summary, I'd even buy the first beer. He's probably a good neighbor other than the occasional gays rants.

Generally in life I have found the conservatives (including christian nut-job types) to be the most accepting of anyone a lot of times.

Whereas butt-hurt liberals will get so passionate at a simple bar debate that they ABSOLUTELY MUST convert you to be a gay-loving, gun hating, kale munching hippie right then and there - even if it means yelling to the point of spitting.

God forbid some people have a discussion that turns into a debate, and then both sides agree to disagree and you go on your merry way. Is that really such a hard concept now? I don't give a shit if you're the most liberal person on P&N, I'll still sit down and have a beer with ya.

There is definitely a clear side that gets butt-hurt to the point of irrational childness. See the P&N thread on the situation in texas: https://forums.anandtech.com/thread...aying-for-texas-disaster-relief-when.2517194/

At least fskimospy isn't willing to stoop to their level. As much as I often disagree with him I would buy him a beer.

You guys are doing an excellent job of becoming every bit as shitty as the people you claim to despise.

Right on. Sure, I think you're subhuman pond scum who should be deprived of basic civil rights, but that's no reason we can't hang out. After all, all positions are morally equivalent.

That said, I hope TH isn't dead. If God kills him, he won't learn nuthin'.

Usually when these threads pop up someone's died. What's his real name I will check the obituary's.
