Nuna, the guy wrote every post like he was trying to get hired at a magazine. 5 words of pompous filler for every one of substance.

 

He often painted lovely tapestries in words. Of course if you were on the right they were like rubbing sandpaper on your eyeballs.

To beautiful Soviet Russia?

Aruba, iirc. Or, maybe someplace in Mexico. It was actually a very genuine and sincere offer.

Instead, CP libs have a long standing tradition of getting all butt hurt and storming off in a fit of martyrdom.

Hot kitchen third line.

I played golf with BYTOR in Ft. Lauderdale many years ago (S*A tour?).  Very good guy and a better golfer than me. 

 

Nuna was an asset to the TG forum as well.  We didn't agree on most topics but he was thoughtful and he challenged the Buckley Brigaders to explain their positions.

 

I don't think either Nuna or BYTOR would come back to discuss Trump or Hillary.

BYTOR came here to Tucson a zillion years ago; we had a beer.  Good guy.

 

...or at least I think it was him.  Can't recall for sure!

[Rush Didact]

It wasn't so much an open flame war. BYTOR was very good at taking comical shots at people on the left. He and Didact were always on opposite ends, so he got a lot of barbs directed at him.

 

Yep, I got my share.  I probably deserved whatever I got, I was a dick back then.  I used to get painfully worked up over political debates in this place, and yes, a lot of them resulted in genuine depression and anguish.  I think I've mellowed a bit in the meantime, and I tend not to get involved in them in the first place now...

 Hey other RD! nice to see you.

Hello other RD, it's been a long time!  I hope you're doing well.

I think we all used to get worked up in those, self included.  Glad you're back!

As was I back then. The funny thing is is I get crap on the rush forum because I'm way too far left for those guys now.

[Rush Didact]

I can only imagine what they'd make of me...

[The Gangster of Boats]

Nuna has been aware of the state of things here.

 

If he wishes to be a part of this particular venue, he will.

 

Otherwise, kindly piss the fuck off LINE 3

Ugh. FJ, I wish you'd gone back a little further and gotten rid of this mixed metaphor.
