Greetings fellow enthusiasts!

I’ve never been on a social media platform with a cast of characters like this. I love it. Thanks for being you.

You would think that when someone signs up and gives a couple bucks support for a nice forum the people within would be nicer to a newbie that felt like he should support the existence of said forum. Some have and thank you! Some, well let’s just say I’m using grammar, punctuation, spelling, and paragraph form complete with spacing as it seems I’ve already been called dumb, arrogant, and ignorant by some of the gems here.

While now, in a short couple weeks, I’ve talked with some really nice people, I just have to say...... the opposite is also true.

To the really nice, welcoming folks I say thank you for the welcome. To the PM’ers who have cautioned and laid out their view of the “atmosphere” and even warned of certain “personality types” and how “newbies” are treated here, I listened, compared and analyzed my interactions. It’s pretty much like the rest of the world. Thanks for the advice.

For the record: I’m just a guy with some similar interests as everyone else here, well at least that’s what I thought I was signing up for.

The world is a better place when human beings treat each other with kindness and respect, and yes even with a little ball busting! (One of my favorite past times). Thanks for letting me rant for a minute, I’m not sure how many will accuse this of being a “post pad” trying to earn the coveted post count number but it’s just a simple guys request that scrolling on by without comment if you don’t like what’s said is a bit kinder than attacking someone you know nothing about and have never met.

I don’t take kind to bullies, I don’t take their shit. Once you get to know me you can decide wether you deserve to give me shit or not, however, how can you know someone in a few online interactions?

If you feel you don’t like me based on a comment in a thread or two please, scroll on by, click the old ignore button on my name and move on. Isn’t that what a good person does??

Lash out at me and I will return the favor to the level I feel you deserve. But why not avoid lashing out at all.

Be kind. Be cool. Be happy. Have fun.

Well said. Also - there's a limited number of fucks to give, something to be aware of.
 
The good old days of Stern
Not to derail this thread, but for the old Stern heads, Elegant Elliot Offen is my neighbor so for all intents and purposes, every day is the good old days of Stern. Shoutout Miss Eleganza

for what it’s worth @RivieraDanny we have almost identical outlooks on life and the hobby. Glad to have you, friend!

De-rail away. Good convo amongst friends is what forums like this are for in my estimation. Being in the SE Wisconsin I grew up with Steve Dahl and Garry Meyer, and Kevin Matthews, not sure where good radio went. I have to say I never cared much for stern for some reason. Was always a fan of Mancow though!! Good times.

It’s Off-en, you sickle celled anemia victim!

I wondered what happened to that guy. Assumed he was dead.
 
This place ain’t so bad overall, some crusty types who come across a little rough sometimes, but over the years I’ve learned that’s not really how they actually are.

I’ll say this though, don’t venture into the politics forum, that place is dark and very unfriendly.

I lasted a couple of weeks and had to delete my access. It was depressing to watch.

I like a fun debate as much as the next guy, but there is a lot of anger flowing in there.

I Should delete my access too. I no longer post there, but end up reading some of the threads every now and then.

Fellow New Yorker here. I’ve seen Elliot Offen at stop and shop with his asscheeks fully exposed more times than I’d like to admit.

My friend's parents were good friends with The Kielbasa Queen and she was always over their house partying. I grew up on Stern. Good times.

Is he still doing the show?
 
So I was told that funny is ok. The messages I’ve been getting are exactly when the old lady brings the pie to the sheriff in blazing saddles. Any of us in our 50’s knows what I mean!! Lol
 
The politics section is so interesting, both sides are welcome to give their views...sic :dead:
