    Hate to break it to you. If you have to ask if you're cool, you are not.

      Dude, I get that I am not and have never been cool.  I don't like the blatant manipulation of implying that if you are cool, you hang out on a specific message board.

        I read it as saying "look, all the cool kids haven't left for RA. They're still hanging around RWOL after all!"

         

        For the record, I never have been and never will be cool.

        Not if it makes sense.

          None of us are cool. We're dorky runners. Joggers, even.

            Isn't this cool kid comment the same sort of awesome humor that Mark very literally uses to write those books he gets all mad about when people criticize?

              I know that I am not cool.    But I do think it's cool there's some VH in this thread!   Class dismissed!

                    Yes, but Mr Remy did not write that post, Kevin Knabe did.

                      What about the idea that Moth is "disappointed" in us?  Kind of similar, really.

                        That part I really don't get, and I don't understand why he is still posting there either. I've had loyalty to a group of people, but never to a particular message board platform or location or whatever. It strikes me as odd, but then I was never really around enough to truly get to "know" Moth. Still, I miss his presence here.

                          To be honest, I have issues there too.  And conspiracy theories.  But none are fit for public consumption. 

                           

                          I thank you for bringing the post to my attention.  I was mostly done with over there as it was.  Now, I am really done.   The only decision left to make is regarding the 2013 game.

                              that dance is 5 minutes of watusi/pony followed by 1 minute of slow side-to-side "8th grade boy dance"

                                The man said he was disappointed. Never said it was "in us". Maybe he was disappointed with our LEAVING. Maybe you should ask him what he meant. Straight out of the horse's mouth and all.
