Not sure what happened to you but take care of that sphincter issue. Sounds like you had a rough childhood.

You don’t have to hide your pain from me brother; I know how you feel.  He was never convicted so it wasn’t a crime, right?  So you blame yourself because you liked it.  And now you’re drawn to older men and take out your self-loathing on them, isn’t that right?

But it wasn’t your fault.  He victimized you.  You need to forgive yourself.

All joking aside-

interesting that merely bringing up  Arts son and the discrepancy between his the court records and Arts description which according to the records on the video was a consensual act is considered to be in the worst taste possible.

But you evidently find molestation something to joke about.

Your moral indignation is noted.

i would keep playing this game with you and verbally destroy you with insults if i wanted to continue down a route making light over  molestation- But trollish as I am, even I have limits of what i find humorous.

bringing up a video and an event that (according to the video) had nothing to do with child molestation offends you so much you proceed to joke around and throw child abuse accusations around.

-I'll play a flame war game with you. but not on this topic. thats too lowbrow for me to even troll you about.

I just discovered this alcoholic root beer.



After about ten of these, this thread is almost fun again.

I’m not joking at all; I’m sorry that you see it that way.

Clearly something really terrible has happened to you, and you need to face it and move past it.  Maybe it wasn’t an uncle.  Maybe it was a priest or a teacher.  But whatever it was, it’s done a lot of damage.  You need to get it out because your insides are all twisted up.  Nobody deserves to live like that.

You know that you’re not normal, right?  It’s not your fault, somebody really hurt you.  An older man.  It had to be.  It makes no sense that you’d take all of this so personally otherwise.  And this isn’t the first time that you’ve done this.  Deep down, you know it doesn’t make sense to have so much hate for a guy you heard on the radio.

What’s the real source of all that anger, man?  It’s deep; it goes way back.  And you can’t take it out on the person that created it; perhaps he’s dead.  So here you are.

I don’t see any other way to explain it.  You've been deeply psychologically traumatized, probably by someone you trusted, or even loved.

[Yorkshire pud]

I don’t see any other way to explain it. 

I do; you've picked up trolling tips and in the absence of Art Bell to beatify, you've got a new hobby; and it's great for you.

I appreciate the attempt to psychoanalyze me. However, someone who say things like....

Does your sphincter still tingle when an older male authority figure abandons you too?  Cause that would explain a lot.
So you blame yourself because you liked it

Is some pretty sick shit...

I really dont have anything to say about that except that your mom has been a really big help in helping me deal with things. But, not to be mean or anything but could you possibly drop some hints about hygiene- the place smells like ramen noodles after I'm done with her. i know you angry that your mom pays more attention to me than to you but honestly, i'll be done with her soon enough and you can have her back- no reason to be so angry.

Jealousy is a terrible beast, my friend and you dont need to hate me over this. I'm not trying to take your daddys place so relax...

[Chronaut]

Bullshit.  You know I'm right.  It's not normal to go after someone with the intensity and the outrage that we've seen here, unless there's a deep underlying emotional trauma.  And this isn't the first time he's done this; it's a pattern.

He knows it too, he has to.  This kind of unrelenting rage doesn't come out of nowhere.  And it surely as hell doesn't happen because some guy stops doing a radio show.  This is different, this is personal.

Weren't you the one that berated the amateur psychiatrists who suggested AB was possibly experiencing some kind of mental problem? Yeah, I think it was.

FWIW, I think DP is an idiot in posting what he did. It served no real purpose and was cruel, no matter what the background story that may or may not have shown AB to not show consistency. It was still a stupid move.

He knows it too, he has to.  This kind of unrelenting rage doesn't come out of nowhere.  And it surely as hell doesn't happen because some guy stops doing a radio show.  This is different, this is personal.

Oh FFS. He'll get bored and move on. And so will you. Then you can meet up for fresh orange at the future reunions and reminisce.

its just time to lay low on bellgab til the bs dies down and we can have conversations about shit again...

This must be what it looks like when a once vibrant and friendly forum dies from the cancer within.

Dude it's pretty awesome. Despite all the wildness and self-damage I've done in my life, alcohol has always been repugnant to me. But when I saw these in the store, my taste buds had an orgasm. I literally bought all of the 6-racks on the shelf and stocked my refrigerator.

I'm a complete tee-totaler who will have a couple shots of whiskey maybe every month of two. But these hard root beers are pretty great. They have a weird after taste that's reminiscent of wine coolers or bitch beer. But the root beer taste is so on point that you get used to it after one or two.

They're so good, I'm sure they'll be outlawed soon because kids and shit.

There is something about the concept of "complete tee-totaler" that you have failed to grasp.

I never drink alcohol unless I drink something that has alcohol

You’re deflecting, but you know I’m right.  Only you know what happened to you, but obviously it was really really bad.  Maybe even worse than I thought.  You don’t have to admit it here, but at least admit it to yourself.  At least be honest with yourself.

You’re right, that was overly harsh.  I guess I didn’t really believe it, but I thought that if I gave you something worse to compare it with, then you might explain what the real problem is here.  Because whatever it is, the psychology at work here is pretty much the same.  There’s a really deep trauma within you, whatever it is you hate yourself for it, so you’re out to make everyone else hate you too.  And when they do, you can hold it against them because deep down you know it really isn’t your fault.

I want to understand it.  I was so confused by it at first that I thought you might be some kind of “hired gun” â€" that this was some kind of  “job” for you.  All the hours you’ve invested here, all the rancor and muck-raking.  It didn’t make sense that someone would react this way over a radio show host going off the air.

But now I realize that I underestimated the amount of damage that can happen to a human psyche.  You’re looking for something here; an escape or perhaps vengeance for something so personal that you can’t even face it.

You have to know that there’s something more here going on.  Nobody gets this outraged over some radio show.  Whatever it is, you’re intensely and relentlessly pissed off about it, and you seem to be too deeply frightened to even acknowledge it, let alone face it.

At least admit that there’s â€"something- more behind all of this; the weeks of character assassination, and dredging through old documents for crumbs of evidence, and picking fights with people here, and shaking your fist at the sky.  It’s obvious that nobody gets that mad about some minor celebrity quitting a radio show.

Can you do that much?  Can you just admit that the source of all this hate and fury existed within you long before Art Bell went off the air?

I think that would be really good for you, I really do.  They say the truth shall set you free.  At least admit the truth to yourself.  Then maybe a close friend, or a professional.

You don’t have to live like this.  You can have a happier life.  And all joking aside, there’s no shame in homosexuality â€" I’m not saying that’s the case for you personally, but it’s just a genetic disposition.  Nobody should hate themselves for it.

You sound like one of those creepy quacks who insist there is some sexual trauma with someone even if there is not. Usually because they either get off on making the accusation or because something has happened in their own past. Your posts aren't funny, nor insightful, they're just becoming really creepy.

[Yorkshire pud]

I know how you feel.

First rule of empathy; No you don't know how anyone feels but yourself. But you're joking anyway, so no matter.

Oh come on - tell me that there isn't more going on here than a former fan of the show getting mad at Art Bell for going off the air.  It's clear as day that nobody gets this outraged, for this long, unless something much much deeper and super horrible is behind it.

I'm not claiming to be insightful, and I'm not saying that I know what the underlying cause is.  But anyone with a spark of brain activity could tell that 1 + 1 =/= 900 gazillion.

I just want to know what the fuck is really going on here.  If you can explain it, then please do.  But a guy with no horse in the race doesn't go this far unless there's a story to tell.  You have to know that.  I'm not even particularly intelligent and that's been obvious from the start.

...But. It'll all make sense when I publish my autobiography- "Livid- the musings of an angry penguin'.

Many have asked these questions and up until now only scholars and philosophers have dared to even speculate. Finally, the truth will be made known. Ghostwritten by the author of "OJ Simpson:If I did it" in conjunction with National Geographic comes the gripping story of one penguins quest for vengeance, the shocking true story of DarKPenguiN.

Take a journey into the innermost thoughts of a Penguin on the edge. Learn the dark secrets. Unlock the mystery.Be there for the love, the loss, the tragedy and the shocking event that turned a good penguin bad.

-I know, you're dying to learn what makes the penguin tick, but you'll have to wait for the book. However, you'll get a free copy and an invite to the Oprah Winfry book club which will certainly be making this book a top selection.

-If you're actually serious. If not- No invite to the book club for you.

Let's just use occam's razor here. Is it more likely that he is an upset fan, or that severe sexual trauma in his life at some point has led him to attach some sort of father like feeling towards Art?

Keep in mind that there are many many upset fans that we actually know of, and not a single person who has this strange attachment towards Art that you claim he does.

Now, which seems more likely?
