Whatever happened to....
the bloke who used to post on QOTW a fair bit, fucked off to Dubai, gloated at his good fortune, then had a bit of a wobble when it all went tits up after he'd arranged for all his stuff to be moved over etc.

Just curious as to how the sotry finished.

Spimf is still around
I chatted to him last week. He's not terribly happy, but is hanging in there. He'll be ok.

I quite like spimf
He may have had the occasional controversy on here, but who hasn't?

^ I don't think I have
Not yet, anyway. I'm obviously not trying hard enough.

But yes, glad to hear he's alright.

Well, quite
I got a load of abusive gazzes over a throwaway comment about working in the public sector a while back.

I would have read them properly, but the guy hadn't the first concept about spacing or paragraphs (he did profess to be a lawyer as well), so I deleted them without reading beyond the first line.

Anyhow, Spimf's a decent chap at heart who got royally shafted, imho. Proper sense of family values, that man.

Everyone here loves me. And I don't blame them.

I thought he was a cock
He was proper full of himself about this amazing job in Dubai and all his massive diamonds, then posted that it had all gone to shit and expected sympathy.

He also played a part in the hounding out of badongism, who was a much much funnier chap.

^ I'd forgotten about that
I always tried to give spimf the benefit of the doubt, as he was a funny chap, but the row with badongism was uncalled for...

My favourite ever Spimf line:
Concerning Madam Marlboro: "She makes ordinary people look like they were made by the council".

Proper tea-spitting moment, that.

Not only do I remember this
but I now also use it as my method of denoting ladies I find particularly luuuurvely.

MM is lovely - she points at me and shouts JESUS! Or SCIENCE!

I believe it was 'women', not 'people'.

Anyone in touch with badongism?
I thought he was quite funny.

On a side subject, I've never had abuse per se aside from a falling out with Gilgamesh during the aspergers thread - however I do find Gilgamesh quite entertaining so I don't hold a grudge.

I did have a post /talk mugged, but a few lovely b3tans all stepped in and flamed the spectacularly thick lady troll by means of reposting some of her dire QOTW posts back to her. Quite entertaining, that.

Do you have a link to that?
I have vague memories of that thread...unless I'm thinking of a similar incident with someone else...
/memory fail

Which one?
*edit*

The /talk mugging one is here:

I gather the troll concerned has made a nuisance of themselves with rachelswipe before and in doing so proved themselves a monumental fuckwit at least once.

Badongism was one sexy motherfunker.

PJM
I remember that thread. The troll in question had a pop at me in a similar fashion as well.

If you haven't got anything to back up your claims that someone is shit, then don't say anything. Simple as! Especially when your own QOTW efforts are lamentable at best.

Thanks for helping out back then DG
You did a pretty good job of cunting that troll in the fuck, I still owe you a pint!

Awwww cheers! :-)
I slunk in through the back door after throwing a bit of a silly fatty-wobble last time. Large apologies to all concerned.

I had forgotten about that.
I was a little harsh there as well, wasn't I?

*sigh*
