Metaphors that are not obvious are annoyingly deceptive.
Indeedy. It's her MO. Just another way of getting attention. We had her involved in metaphorical train wrecks where folk were actually worried for her well being and metaphorical fatal shootings and ... well it just goes on and on.

From where he gets his premium/fancy chocolates as wholesale, can't you do the same?


He buys a LOT more expensive and high end Chocolates than I do, which is why he gets the free See's, Godiva, Ghirardelli, etc while I get free Hershey's, Snickers, Reese's, etc. ;)

There are no chocolates. This is not about chocolates!

Your use of metaphor is absurd.

Makes one wonder about the what the product or service is.


It's about casino free play / player cards. Why the H**K does Karen have to post in riddles. Is she so out of touch with reality or is real life just too boring.
Her occasional Adversary and occasional Best Fried Forever... Then adversary again after she stiffed him, acquires the player cards and usesd Karen as his grunt to play them out for a split of the profits. Except he is no longer inclined to trust her, so even this little hustle is game over.

This whole sorry episode could be moderately interesting if Karen just spilled the whole story in clear text. Heck, she could even have the ADVANTAGE of getting her side of the story out first.

Karen, You like ADVANTAGE play don't you. Here's a big opportunity.

Except he gave me another chance after the failed pickups and I paid him back and he decided to forgive and trust me again.

Failed pickups. Lmao. More doublespeak. Why don't you 'fess up' to how those failed pickups really happened? As an exercise in story telling, maybe relate the story from his perspective.

Agreed. Utterly absurd.

Not exactly.
You ripped him off financially. You gave him the runaround. you avoided and evaded him, deceived him and you disrespected him. Eventually, you paid him some financial reparation, and kudos for that. But to what extent did you make good for betraying his trust in you? Maybe your answer to that lies in the status of the current business relationship that you share. Oh. and far be it from me to say, but have you considered the tax and legal status of your venture? Who gets left holding the baby when the sh1t hits the fan?

Anyhow. Now we seem to be getting around to it, how about squaring the debt of respect to Wizard and this forum?
An apology for any/all alternative ID's might be a good start. No need to name them or claim them individually, just a general apology would be a nice gesture.

Wizard has given you many 'second chances' and is, IMHO, being especially kind to you in letting you stay here.

You might, just might, consider some sort of reparation for irritating the hell out of some decent, long standing members here, even to the point where they got suspended for calling you out ( I'm stretching the point to include Evenbob :o)

Members who post controversial content with the intent to cause disruption and suspensions are generally called trolls. I'm not accusing you, or calling you a troll, but it is FACT that members of good standing ended up with suspensions after engaging in your threads. Read into that what you will.

Now. As a courtesy to those other members who have expressed a preference... And those visitors who are not familiar with you, how about you desist from posting in the form of metaphors or parables, or at the very least, how about clearly identifying them as such.

Once Dear, I only avoided him for less than two hours and then I decided that I needed to act like an Adult and face him and confess to him what I did. I did. He was understandably angry but he did decide to give me another chance after seeking advice from a person who decided to be Mediator between us. He allowed me to pay him back in installments which I did and I stopped cheating him and he was happy that I paid him back and stopped cheating him.
