Sorry…

[Cornholio]

Hey folks,

I just want to say that I am sorry for any sorrow and angst I’ve caused here over the years by being a stubborn jerk at times. Even though I’ve met many of you in person I still failed at doing what I criticize others for doing in regards to having keyboard courage. I’ve let myself get a bit too involved in some threads where my opinions and emotions weren’t exactly projected in a manner that I could ever be proud of.

While I’m probably one of the youngest members on the site that is not an excuse for being immature and I recognize that. If anything I should be the one trying to lead by example and I’ve failed on that front. It’s actually really been bothering me lately as I’ve reflected on a lot of things in life.

I may disagree with some things that people say but that does not warrant Sh!t talking or passive aggressive actions that I’ve been guilty of doing. Again, I apologize.

No I’m not on some religious kick or anything like that to warrant this post, just thinking hard about how I treat others and how I’m treated in general and it came up. To be honest, even with the crazy stuff that exists these days, I’m in a good spot and happy. I realize that “proving” people wrong or arguing over opinions does not bring on happiness.

Anyways, I’ve already rambled on for too long so I’ll just end on saying.. thanks to everyone here for many years of entertainment, help, and friendship.


Sincerely,

No apology necessary. There's a lot of anger and frustration going on in the world today. I regularly type out an opinion or belief to someone's post and immediately delete it after I proofread it. It's just not realistic for everyone to have the same views or opinions whether they're right or wrong.
I try to use this site as a source of information and interaction with fellow MTBers.
Other forms of social media I use strictly for entertainment.
That being said, I'd like to say I posted this while being completely sober.

No apologies needed. Like UpsEd said I too type and delete posts often. And sometimes I do post and think later maybe I shouldn't have.

Anyway, life's been stressful the last couple years so I get it.

Cheers! Glad you're here.

And unlike the poster above I'm not completely sober..

I don't recall you @Cornholio being too far off the rails at any point. But if you felt you were, very cool of you to acknowledge. I am glad you are back.

I met you once, though I didn't know it was you until after. (Counting Coup at 4 Corners with my dogs)
Maybe I missed it, but I haven't seen you post anything out of line.
We all have less than perfect ideas at times, we sometimes spout them off, no big deal as far as I'm concerned.

Hope to see you and your kids at Over the Hump this year. (I'll miss week 1)

He and I had an insignificant disagreement about leaf blowers years ago, and I’ve held a grudge ever since. It’s about time my complaints to management were acknowledged.

Wait... are you my wife?!

J/K... I honestly don't think you've been that bad! Evcryone needs room to offload once in a while, and better here than when you're on the freeway!

Your counting coup epic post was one of the best well written inspirational posts ever!
We still gotta hit Greer!!! My doctor says okay to ride just as long as I don’t crash.

Never an issue with me but what do I know? I thought drunken sh!t talking was encouraged around here. I just assume what I read here is friendly banter even though many times I don’t agree with the dumbazz poster. Part of life is learning from our mistakes and we all make em. Owning up and moving on is key. I do wish you would go back to posting your delicious looking BBQ meals though @Cornholio …

Dude, you suck!!!

Actually, we all go off the rails now and then. I've done it, you're done, even @herzalot has done it. Others goad. Others pick nits.

We're all fallible, but as long as we admit our fallibility we can overcome!!! Or something like that.

Join us again on the FLoop, sensei!!
