How do you get rid of an acquaintance?

Actually as much fun as y'all made, the point came through, do something to make him feel uncomfortable, 3 days ago when I saw him, I pretend to be kinda upset and told him I wasn't doing good, the IRS said some of my write offs weren't legal and said I still owed another $58k and cleaned out my bank account. Then I proceeded to ask him to borrow $130 till Friday to pay off my credit card bill. He looked stunned. He made the worst excuse and said something about they haven't paid him his check and he needs to buy some book.

Now that it got a little awkward, I them asked him for $20 to buy a bad of dog food for Bentley. He said he was going to check if he had it a home and let me know. Well yesterday he was in my neighborhood leaving flyers from the hot dog restaurant door to door and was like 3 doors down when I came back from walking my dog, so he definitely saw me go in. He left a flyer at front door and kept going! Mission accomplished! I did feel a little guilty lying to the guy, but at the end of the day, it was to avoid being blunt with him which would have probably hurt his feelings.

 

Just showing him your balls would have been less wordy. But that's...just not you.

I gave Alice advice based on my assumptions that the kid saw him as an easy target. When I learned Alice wanted to get rid of him because he talks slow or something, I wanted to kick Alice in the vulva.

When you learned it was bc he takes slow? Where did you get that, it's actually quite the opposite, the fact that he may be disabled and also because he is young and probably doesn't know any better, I was trying to figure out a way to get rid of him without being mean or hurting his feelings. It's seems to have worked out great because last time I saw him he pass by he didnt come to my door and its because he didnt want to after I asked him for multiple loans.

Bottom line, I got rid of him by making him think its his decision, that's some Sun Tzu swag!

i cant think of anyone in the history of this board that i wouldn't actually like irl if i met them

 

alice is the lone exception, he's been so successful at portraying his life on here that i can't imagine feeling anything other than rot-gutted contempt

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
