Tony--
Calm down, deep breath, in through the nostrils, out through the gills.

Maybe Tony is also DVD Burner's given name. Since I joined after he did and everybody looked like they had the same seniority (i.e. senior to me) I didn't really catch it at the time, but it jibes with what I have been able to put together from hints dropped by Bagder and others.

I confess that I like the board as it is, although I know I have no way of knowing if it might not be better if things had been different.

From the looks of it defacto has posted zero times.

Anyway, I don't give a rat's ass what you think Badger. I have never signed in under any other name, nor have I ever signed out as tonytohono on this or any other computer. So get your facts straight.

I don't hide under multiple personalities, I have enough on my plate as one person.

I am not DVD, give me a break. I joined this site as a first timer looking for a ticket I think August 10th, although I ended up getting my off eBay.

Whatever though...

Still... a great big FUCK YOU to Badger for assuming I am some stupid asshole that plays this mask and that mask.

What a joke.

sorry to go off topic...

What the fuck are you talking about asshole? I think I have posted 160 time on here, not a thousand. I have never been on this site under any other name. The first time I came on here was when I was looking for a ticket in August. Stick that in your hole dipshit.
Tony, the reference was taken from Stuart's message re. Tony (aka DVD Burner/DE FACTO). Nothing about you was intended nor was it meant to suggest as much.

Nothing.

The temptation to tear your ass off like a velociraptor in a sheep pen is, I'll admit, a tempting one.


Before you stick your shit heel further in your mouth to the point it comes sticking out of your own ass let me say that NOTHING about my post was directed towards you.

Nothing.

As mentiuoned in PM, an apology on your part would be appropriate but given the over the top sense of indignation - not to mention the sophomoric response - to a message that you completely mis-read/mis-intepreted, I'm not holding my breath.

You're an ass.

Well then... that makes a little more sence, as far as the number of posts, but alas I was nowhere near this site a year ago. I remember being reminded of BM about 2 weeks after it was already over, and so on and so forth.

Not that it matters, but the statements I made prior to this post still stand. I have never been so insulted in my life.

Well, I confess that is total bullshit, but it sounded nice and dramatic.

Anyway, I am glad that this is out in the open because I have been receiving a weird vibe from some people here. Maybe that was why.

If there is any doubt about it by all means check it out. Have an administrator verify a couple of IP addresses. But do me a favor and stop making fools out of yourself (Badger).

Surely, you people have more to do with your lives than spend your time frivolously signing in and out of various identities to mess with each other's heads. I know I do.

I confess that I had been bracing myself for the viewing of the AWESOME WRATH OF BADGER UNLEASHED.

I confess that I am impressed with the sheer level-headedness of the reply. You were the consummate, intelligent gentleman- as always. Though I am quite sure- now with bitten tongue.

I also confess that I believe that chocolate, garlic, wine, and cheese are the four food groups- and steadfastly refused to believe the attempts of qualified medical professionals to tell me different.

I confess that this tirade resulted at a misunderstanding. Evidently, Badger thought that Tisha was talking to DVD, and didn't realize that she was answering a direct question made by me.

I confess that my blood was brought to a boil for no reeason at all.

I do not confess that I was wrong for this.

I do confess that I am an ultimate (right up there with the superlative of assholes group) hot head.

I thereby apologize to Badger for throwing buckets of shit in his direction, both in open forum and via PM.

Peace. Signed; the one and only real tonytohono (struck in blood - #15)

Jesus. I confess, I can't understand why anyone would want to waste their time setting up sock puppets.....I spend too much time on eplaya as it is, I just couldn't imagine splitting that or adding to it with a sock....it's sort of like eplaya scizophrenia.

Anyway, I like eplaya alot as you can see....I'd like to see us all get more creative with it, with a capiral "C"

Badger - I still think you are an asshole. People be the judge for yourselves:
Badger wrote:
Tony - 'socks' are alternate online personalities. a second (or third or fourth) screen name for one person.
He's aware of that as are a lot of us here. The e-Playa is still recovering from the onslaught of almost crippling bullshit spamming/posts (close to 1000) that Tony unleashed here a while back when he first came to this place. It resulted in a mass exodus of many long time contributors.

Rather than fire up a 'did not...did too' shit flinging contest it's probably best to have a look for yourself by using the search mechanism starting with DE FACTO which was his first incarnation.
The quote you took was made to moi by Tisha, not stuart. You are the one disillusioned, not me. I basically asked what socks were by confessing I did not. Now why are you quoting an answer directed to me when you are claiming it was stuart...

Because you are wrong and it is you that owes the apology. I already apologized for misunderstanding your mistake. Think about it. I believe an apology is in order here from you as well.

For the approaching hurricane, silly! Rian is getting restless. "Wild swirling vortex," indeed! And since I have a habit of showing up at the office on a regular basis, evacuation is not one of the top options. It's coming my way, this hurricane, and I ain't gonna avoid it. Just trying to be prepared.

If only I could figure out the real life equivalent of the above-mentioned metaphorical supplies...

I guess I'll start by practicing "ducking".

On the other hand, this is a hurricane I want to see.

Yes. Yes she is. You are confused because hurricanes don't come to Seattle? There's always a first time.

I confess I've taken the metaphor too far.

Hmm, you think there is a market for a spell check for morse code CoWorkerLurker? TY for noticing my mistake.

It's kind of, sort of, maybe, an inside joke. Not the mispelling, but the message itself. Now it correctly spelled.

I confess that without CoWorkerLurkers help I might be sending the wrong message~!
