  But been a run ride, hopefully we're not even halfway done yet. Also doing well at football would certainly help take the fucking sting off this shit.

Why do you think I’ve been hanging on? 
Sark better get it done soon.

I just assumed you were Cartaphilus, the Wandering Jew, from the New Testament.  Really freaked me out a few months ago when we both had the same old-school maps on display in the same order.  And Cartaphilus begat the name, Cartography.

What maps?

Precisely what they told me you'd say.  Early 21st century Rand-McNally full-size atlas along with a few parks we share in common.  You can play dumb with the Emperor, Gatekeeper, but you and I have both danced around this rock for quite awhile...

Shadow_Operative (Derka) NOT Shadow_Operative 2.0 (SpyStud) hasn't been around in almost a month.  New handle, wellness check needed or did I miss where he finally said, "fuck it all I'm out"?

He’s posting on Insta, so he’s still alive.

He was posting in the baseball forum literally yesterday.

Well he’s been laying off the basketball thread, which is probably for the best.

He may have been offended about something.

That’s not how derka operates. If he’s offended by something, you’re getting longcat’d.

I'm just going by this (current screen shot).  Again we are talking about Derka....not SpyStud (shadow_operative 2.0)

He uploaded to his youtube account yesterday. Looks normal.

Speaking of Derka, what was the bet many years ago where he would change his account's password on here but crawfished on the bet? That was a great thread(s).

#1519

It was even better when he crawfished on going to the Texas-ou game on Taz’s dime and ended up going to see his family instead…or something like that.

#1521

Oh shit you’re right I should text Lando. Also crawfished?? I’ve never heard that in my life

@Landomatic disappeared right after he bought his boat and finished a pool. Hope he's doing alright.  

He must have omitted the part where he doesn't know how to swim.

Didn’t he post about a family member that they were not seeing again/fueding with with his in laws? So family member/FIL used his boat and gave him the ol’ cement shoes treatment?

Every message board needs its train wreck.  Who's going to do it?  You?!?!  You, Lieutenant Weinberg?!?!

I’ll never understand the affinity some here feel for the guy. Best guess is that people feel sorry for him and expect him to get better. But he won’t. 

I think there’s a big element of entertainment factor and that seems to be you. Nothing about that is entertaining to me. It’s fatiguing.

I suggest starting with light cardio, then working up to weights.

Mentally fatiguing.

Damn. Derka gone.  Maybe good for him

So his last post was taking extreme offense to comments made in a thread he started about why no one should ever be offended? Classic.

Derka Derka Forever!

I feel bad for him but he was incredibly confrontational.  I don’t have an affinity for him at all

That you feel bad for him suggests empathy. I’ll never understand the sympathy for random people on the internet who are crazy, and delusional in that they think they provide ‘good content’.

The same people who bitch about Derka when he posts are the same ones bitching about him when he doesn't post. Some of y'all need therapy. 

 

You mistake an observational comment with bitching.   I’m ok with him not coming back.  Just hoping he finds peace within his life tbh

How is sympathy for random people on the internet any different than commenting negatively on someone that is gone? It’s opposite sides of the same coin. You either think about it enough to notice (which means that person has made some impression good or bad) or you don’t.

As far as him specifically, he’s been around a long time and has been interesting if nothing else. Hopefully, he does find peace outside of here. That doesn’t seem like that strange a thought for a normal person. I hope most people find peace in their everyday lives just for the record.

Meant to quote the “why” post too just for the record.

I’m interested only to the extent people care. He has suckered some people here and suspect that’s exactly what he does in real life.

It says so much about you that you see people with a little bit of empathy as suckers and idiots.

With that guy’s repetitive behavior?  I’m alright what it says.
