Last night, someone told lazs that everyone in AH hated him. I didn't see it nor do I know what prompted the comment. The only way I knew it was said was from lazs. He said it matter of factly and then said nothing else for a long time. Well, maybe 20 or 30 seconds, but that's a long time for lazs, hehe.
I didn't say anything as I was busy at the time. Except for MRWULF!!! you !@#$, I was having a good night doing the low alt drag & bag stuff with lazs.
As I said, I was busy & quite frankly forgot about the whole thing until I revisited Udie's post today about the loss of his friend. Something struck me when reading the additional posts in that thread, it was lazs tone of voice when he told me what was said to him. I replayed the short conversation over in my head and wished I had said something. I started reflecting on the Sept. 11 tragedy and the loss of my father in Sept. Guess this is the mushy side of me.
I didn't say anything then but I am now. I know I'm going to catch a load of toejam from lazs about this but being a crusty old cop for 15 years and the son of a 20 year navy vet, I can handle it.
No, not everyone in AH hates lazs. I call him friend. He is a unique individual. A highly aggressive competitor but I can't recall how many times I've screamed for help & lazs would say "I have no ammo but I'm coming back". He would show up too.
Some of us take ourselves so seriously. Some take things said in the heat of a "game" battle to personally. Some of us are very predictable. It's gotten to the point that I can name those that will respond to a lazs post & pretty much what they will say. It is a topic of humorus conversation between the ancient one & I, lol.
Before knowing lazs back in WB, I always thought his posts were humorus. Rather, the responses he recieved were the funny part. Recognizing the respondant pattern was even more comical. I considered him the master of all button pushers, lol.
We all have a little lazs in us I think. Another person whom I call friend, ripsnort, is much like lazs. rip is a little more...diplomatic
but piss him off or be emphatic on the other side of the issue. As a side note, lazs & rip sound alike on rw. Almost identical. Go figure.
Do I think lazs was concerned about the comment? Probably not. I, on the other hand, wanted him & you to know he is my friend, but then again, I like Creamo too, hehehe.
For you "creatures of habit", don't let me down now, ya hear?
