I unfortunately don't have the time to troll… but man if I did… I used to be one of the best.

Pretty spot on… I am married to my partner and have a baby on the way! (doing my duty to ruin this world and bring more people into it)

I actually know more about
some of the people I described (as well as some that i didn't). But I didn't want to say anything too personal about anybody.
It helps if you're willing to meet people offline, which you have repeatedly stated that you're not!

smart, but dont all smart people think they are smart, so are they really. tall, but not too tall, just tall enough to seem like he must love basketball without coming across as some horror film freak. angry a lot, and it comes from growing up gay and putting up with small town americans hatred toward gay people. he was bullied and picked on and always told to grit your teeth and deal with it. now he is always trying to succeed, always trying to be perfect, as if to make up for something or some life lost. it will kill him one day and he will die of a heart attack, trying to do so much. he is now slowing down on drugs and alcohol, because deep down inside he knows they are bad and will kill you. he listens to music all the time and cant figure out why he seems to always need it. he fights the good fight everyday of trying not to think that everybody else around you is not as qualified to be doing what you are. sometimes he wishes he could master his meditation and ignore other people for the rest of this life. a path is a path to walk on, not walk on by one.
We should have an introductions thread. Where people describe themselves. Photo optional. I don't think James Ford profiles based on whether someone likes Americana and their taste in beer is all that informative.

Congratulations on the little one on the way!
Your use of the word "partner" threw me though i did know your partner was opposite sex (unless he isn't). I forget that married people use that term as well.

I only use the term partner on this board… because walky does.

i used to be bitter. bitter tastes better with "before" and "been there" rather than with "belong." give up bitter and say fuck it. you know, being happy . . . is worth it.

I just want to reiterate, I am most certainly an ass man.

I'd imagine this makes him very happy.
I think Dupek was a pretty good troll back in the day

We were in Chicago for the day a couple days before Christmas. My wife was dropping me off at Old Irving Brewing in Irving Park so she and my daughter could go have some girl time.
We passed this scruffy looking guy who looked remotely like a thinner version of Jeff Tweedy. My wife rolls down the window and yells "Hey Jeff!" The guy looks up.
Since then I've learned that Jeff Tweedy lives in Irving Park and looks like he's lost a fair share of weight.
Hmmmm.

Very similar story — had some friends in college who used to drive around and yell at groups of women, “home wreckers!”
You’d be stunned how many of these women admitted they were in affairs with their response.
