I was under the impression that Brostadammit is the return of Que.
Not by a longshot.
Well, I can't say I care much.

I am happy that my happiness does not depend on whether or not another individual returns to this website.
Comprende?

I wish you could be happier. Don't you mean "rapier"? As in rapier wit , which is the kind of response fit to anything Q says?

I interacted with Queshank on here sometime in the 20-teens and then on Facebook shortly after the 2020 election. On both occasions - and in contrast to the thoughtful Queshank that I had met on LNF around 2005 - I found the new Queshank to be a dishonest and insulting conversation partner. I expect that the forum is better off without him.

Is that a sincere question? Oh, were you pariah on the old board? If so, where have you been?

Is that a sincere question? Oh, were you pariah on the old board? If so, where have you been? Yeah, I've always been pariah here. I didn't create this username, just now. I had assumed that it was ported over from the old board. It took me a few tries to remember the password. So I think a few things happened at once that caused me to drop off the board, all around 2008: I had a child, I bought a new house, Obama was elected. The arrival of my child and the purchase of the new (and fixer-upper) house made this board - which can be exhausting - a time-and-energy-sink that I really couldn't afford. And the election of Obama was a relief - and a victory for my ideological "side" - such that getting in these trenches no longer seemed the severe threat that it had been, and I gave myself permission to end my tour of duty in the intellectual war, at least on this front. How have your 15 years been?

How have your 15 years been? 1. This is actually a different board. The old admin died and the old board lapsed because hosting payments weren't maintained. 2. There were one or two abortive attempts at a replacement until Fiddler graciously set up this one. Due to the hassle of the role, he abdicated and Mojo-Jojo settled into the mod role, given popular acclaim. 3. Congratulations on the child and the new house! Positively life-changing! 4. My 15 years have been mostly good. Kids grew up, but we're still close. I took a bit of a hiatus after someone fraudulently misrepresented me online (using my IRL identity). That was sobering. Some of the old guard didn't make it here, but you'd recognize the usual suspects. Nice to have you back.

Some of the old guard didn't make it here, but you'd recognize the usual suspects. Nice to have you back. Thanks. Sorry about that business with someone misrepresenting you. I had a credit card company call me recently to ask for some more information to open a line of credit that I very definitely didn't request. The system worked in that case, but it was pretty scary to think if those people had - or if someone else gets - just a little more information about me, then I might be looking at a costly and time-consuming campaign to convince creditors that I am not the one who owes them. So yeah, I knew that this LNF board was not the old LNF board. Queshank mentioned it the last time we interacted, but also, the URL is different and my post count would be >0 on the old one. I just don't remember manually recreating my username here and thought someone with technical skills and admin rights on the old board might have been able to do a dump of some the database tables. But also, I am old and could easily just not remember that manual creation. Congrats on your kid's successful launch into adulthood, and thanks for the welcome. I'll do some lurking, get a feel for things, and then maybe see you in the threads.

I dimly remember an individual here named Queshank. I hear he since sniffed airplane glue which drastically lowered his IQ.

The truth is that you were drunk and said a few embarrassing things and then left in shame. Later you came up with this cockamamie explanation that very few people would believe... You're an unreliable piece of crap and every once in a while, like today, you blow a gasket, and sometimes say shit that you regret later. Christian, my ass! Lying through your teeth is your religion.

Shouldn’t you be the *LAST* person to accuse anyone of blowing a gasket? Seriously, are you that lacking in self-awareness?
