i realize some of the newer blood around here likely sees the angry screeching, the evidence of almost complete testosterone depletion, and the cult like loyalty to left wing politics, and just assumes that was always the case....

well, people tend to forget this, but he was once known as something of a "happy go lucky" fresh faced guy who was ready to take on the world.

he was confident but not cocky. daring yet measured. he was always ready with a quip and a quote, and his trademark was to extend a kind word or offer of encouragement to anyone in earshot. i was one of his biggest fans, so i think i saw the transition coming before some. the more time he spent on the deuce, the more he adopted their ways and surrendered his own identity. flash forward and anymore its just hate and rage from him 24/7. the only quips he gives are grievances/insults... and the only quotes are from left wing influencers. the whole thing sucks and sometimes at night i lay awake and wonder what could have been in store for him had he never logged onto the deuce.
