Yes, I did E-mail him the thread. I've since had some second thoughts...but oh well. I seriously doubt that the person posting as "ToddRichardBranch" is legit...his E-mail address is "ToddRichardBranch@hotmail.com"...not the address listed on the real Todd's site.
And no fair taking back your insults! It's ok to make fun of someone, as long as they're not around to here it? Own up to your statements, people!

Sue in NY, as a moderator, don't you think you should have some responsibility to curtail some of the insults being thrown around here towards this innocent by-stander?

Uhm, no. There's enough to do here without worrying about egotistical strangers.

I mean, c'mon, talk about mean-spiritedness, why do you allow such attacks on a guy who doesn't even have anything to do with the site? What have this guy, whose only crime towards you all is put up his own website, done to you all?

Nothing. But he's practically BEGGING to be mocked.

Most of you seem to have a good time insulting another human being, yet one calls a terrorist "coward" and you get so bent out of shape saying it's not right to do so.

Huh?

What's wrong with this picture?

I think a lot of you just can't stand people who are proud of themselves. So negative!

You're all bad news![/QUOTE]

Well, that's untrue. However, this isn't pride. This is hysterical.

I DO wish that the link hadn't been forwarded to him, but hey, this site isn't secret, and if he is a sensitive soul, he shouldn't post such astonishingly self-impressed drivel.

Duck, I am heavily rolling my eyes as we speak. They may get stuck in the back of my head, so I need to be careful.

Pre, don't let the tide changing here suddenly get to you. I think Todd's ego will survive the blow.

I think many of you prefer to have "pity parties" (see Genie's post) rather than hear people be proud of themselves. Same reason some of you often pick fights with the guys at advance running.

Now I'm getting it.

Someone has figured it out. Todd's webpage has been taken down.

nrgy, many insults have come your way in the past, seemed like you weren;t able to handle them quite well without whining about it.

What the hell, why do I care, go ahead and make fun of other people. Whatever keeps you all busy!!

Okay people, I guess I have to spell this one out for you:

1) Todd Richard Branch exists, lives, moves, has his being.

2) The connection between Todd Richard Branch the person and the website that details the man myth and legend is tenuous at best. Spoof people. Mean-spirited spoof. Nasty too.

3) The email sent to the site either went to the spoofers or to TRB himself. If the latter then it's just adding to the mean-spiritedness, if the former then the spoofers are having a good laugh at ours (and Todd's continued) expense.

4) ToddRichardBranch is probably one of us posting for fun, or could be the spoofers.

----
Gee, the way some girdles are in knots you'd think that TRB had devoted his life to Gallowalking

I think Satfix has a point. I can't help but think TRB would have some absolutely fascinating angles on some of the topics you guys toss about, specially here in clubhouse. I'd be willing to read whatever he wants to throw out here.

Mr. Branch.. (I use your last name out of respect)

Please, enlighten us... Since you 'burst' onto the scene here at kick!/CoolRunning.. your Outsiders view on our little Cyber world would be very interesting..

I know some of the comments by our members seem rather cold and callous, but they don't know you (wait til they get to know you.. they'll really rip you to shreads then.. just ask nrgy (resident Trailor Court Queen) or BRUTAL (resident- ultra stud and man among men) )

so.. what do you think? should we make changes???

satfix..

Yes, but if not for this the word "ASSCLOWN" would not have regained its popularity!

<stuff Kristin into the sofa> I still think that anyone willing to put up a website filled with such, well, HONESTY, has got to have something more than interesting to provide. And that kind of honesty is definitely going to get some rather honest remarks coming back. </stuff Kristin into the sofa>

Okay, I think his website has been taken down...I can't get the link to work!
Could he be on to us? Embarrassed? Updating it?
Where are you, Todd???

Yea, more than interesting for sure. More than interesting in what manner is what gives me the heebies. (If he stuffs me in the sofa, won't people figure it out when they sit on it?)

And I'm not dead yet! Lets just hope I can keep up a pace faster than Todd the god. Callipy, if you want him still, you can have him. But be sure to sleep with one eye open!

Yah, Grizz, 'cause I am still thinking that Todd exists, but he's a clever self-spoofer and created that web page as a sort of hyperbolic self-characature. It must be so. In which case, how fantastic. This is such a great mystery.

You'll note that I'm never sharing my personal journal with anyone ever ever ever. I'm going to have to burn it if ever death is imminent. I have some pretty yuk-em-up stuff in there that might rival Todd's. Well, okay, not quite.
