I'm pretty sure I don't qualify even though I've been around a long time, and recognize most of the OG guys checking in as the normal crowd back in the day. Hard to believe the salty guy named Irish is the same one answering thousands of advice questions in the advice section. I guess he's living a double life... You're not and posting in every thread doesn't make you one. I don't even think I am since I didn't start posting till 2004 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you're not in the "in crowd", you're just an A- hole. At first, as a complete newbie tool, I took the bait and was offended all the time, I was a stupid kid. Now, you just bust back, move on and go shoot the shizz in the advice forum. The irony is some of the same people who have given me crap here are the same ones that will shoot me a text, PM or post in that thread. You live long enough, you learn to let the little garbage go. Life's to short. This is .............something. Sad, I think is the word. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ever since I had kids and the real estate crash happened, I haven't had the cash to go to Vegas as much as I used to. I'm hopeful that once COVID settles down that I'll be able to get out there with the likes of BC, twiley, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Country 560 Posted December 9, 2020 Yeah, I think I still have my copy of msaints book lying around somewhere - i think it survived the fire, I'll have to check around for it. And if you have to ask if your OG, you definitely aren't. If you are OG, then you know about the couch in the corner with the Cheetoh dust Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In its own completely obsolete and antiquated way, maybe it helped a few people pick up a few tips but MORE THAN THAT, just get a kick out of the insanity, fun, craziness of this pastime/hobby/obsession.
