"This place is pretty cool, man."


  

          

For reasons not worth going into at the moment, I've had a terrible last week or so, and I was having a terrible day before I came to GD this afternoon.

Some of you I've hung out with, some of you I've met, some of you I've never met but with whom I interact pretty frequently on here, some of you with whom I interact less so. A few of you I occasionally disagree with. And some from each of those aforementioned groups took the time to reply to something silly written about me with something nice.

Those tiny gestures, made thoughtfully or made on impulse, took someone who was really down and gave him a little boost. Which was all he really needed today.

I hope to meet more of you.

Thanks, y'all.

Everyone's cool for the most part except the trolling contrarians.

Then again, B9 famously bounced from here and gave up on the Mavs when they lost to the Heat - which turned out to be a tremendous L 5 years later.

Any new development about a show or film can have its own post. Sometimes people don't want to dig through a 300 reply post to discuss the latest news.

My man got peoples!? It was nice to see.

I don't fuzz with it very often but I get the impression that the OKSports beefs are the deepest longest running and most irrational of all the beefs that I see on OKP.

envious is a better word. i don't go to sports, but generally speaking frank deserves support. i'm glad people had his back, whatever it was that happened.
