Open Letter to Finding Namo

Posted: 1/25/04 at 12:06pm

As a public service I am posting the message below from Finding Namo which appears in the O-T thread "Here's another one, just between us."

Also below is my public response to his continuing attention to me. I may be the bulldog but I'm tired of his bulls**t.

Cheers! BB

"Did someone say my name? I distinctly heard someone say my name." -- Hedwig

It's generally considered good form when asking someone for personal information to share that information about one's self. Unless one doesn't mind appearing creepy.

It's sort of like when you were asking me all sorts of personal questions in PMs and something didn't feel quite right. If others trust you, good for them! And you! (insert LOL here)

Namo, for someone who views me with so much disdain you are nearly always bringing me into your posts. Isn't that rather odd? It strikes me you look for opportunities to make remarks about me to get me engaged in public dialogue with you, or to get others to attack me for you.

My preference is to ignore you as you are aware but you don't make it easy I'm afraid, and as I stated before you don't intimidate me, either. Sometimes I belive you need to be heartily pushed back plus I think you relish the public humiliation as it gives you what you crave most--attention and the chance to be perceived as victim.

As for the PMs you mention, we did have some exchanges in mid-December as I recall. I admit I initiated them. I thought to myself that no one can be as mean and nasty in private as you appeared to be in public. It being the holidays and all, I took pity on what stuck me as a lonely man who might be having a tough time of it at the end of December. I even said I would have invited you to Christmas Dinner if I hadn't already had a full house of guests and not an empty seat. Yes, I am a nice guy. As I recall the personal questions I asked were something along the line of: Is that you in your icon and what do you do?

I was wrong to be nice. You proved to be just as mean and nasty in private, cynical and distrustful. A Trojan Horse was your analogy of me as I recall. The sum of your responses were the simple point as you said that you would b**w me but had no interest in talking to me. I guess you just didn't like it when I ignored your offer of oral sex. Who knows?

The net net of all this is same as it was before. Leave me alone and out of your posts. I am perfectly fine ignoring you. Thank you.

Yours for a better Broadway!

One does not successfully ignore a person by starting a thread with his name in the title and writing an epic post about him. Good thing I don't actually crave your attention, or I would be all tingly wingly right now.

We officially have another Great Enemies of the Board!

Dollypop and Albin have some huge competition here!

I think BB and FN need to kiss and make up!! =)

Or, BB should Namo up on his offer!! =)

Or, let the games begin.

What I meant by my offer was I would sooner have sex with him than share something intimate about myself! It was ironical.

I'm nobody's enemy. But my BS Detector pings loudest for the person who started this thread.

It's the clash of personalities, the tension, the conflicts that keep life interesting. Where would theater be without it?

Sure beats reading the BG2&P Mutt & Jeff routine anyday.

that i'd love to see!

No. You really wouldn't love to see that. He wears blue plaid Brooks Brothers boxer shorts. 'Nuff said.

Dear heart, you obviously crave the attention. you thrive on it. i just joined the site exacly 28 minutes ago, and i already dislike your attention seeking cynicle comments which serve no other purpose than to piss people off. just the fact that you even bothered to reply to this message indicates your desire for center stage. you've found the light hon, but you better put on some shades and look around, because someone might just upstage your arrogant disposition. i don't claim that i will. in all honesty, i really couldn't care less if you were this sites moderater or janitor. but i think it's time you heard the wake-up call and realize that people are pissed, and there are better ways of making yourself heard than mean and personal comments. have a good day, love, and smile, because it makes you so much prettier and people tend to like you a tad more.

p.s. Bulldog, you have no idea how much i love you right now. a football player who is a memeber of a musical site and is obviously a kind person: that's just too rare. i hope you know what a special person you are!

Oh, innocentchoirboy, you just don't understand the delicately balanced love/hate relationships that run rampant through this site. I like to think of the Albins and the Dollypops and the Bulldogs and the Namos of the board reminiscent of the Old New York theatre world, comme All About Eve.

Albeit Bulldog and his Brooks Brothers boxers are quite special.

Yours for a cattier Broadway!

Can I get the 3 minutes of my life back that I spent reading this thread?

[RobbO]

Posted: 1/28/04 at 4:20pm

no, but you can trade it in for a "I read Broadwayworld.com and alls I got was this lousy t-shirt!" shirt in x-large or X-large.

'in x-large or X-large'

RobO, are you calling me fat?

[RobbO]

Posted: 1/28/04 at 4:34pm

no, i'm just trying to make the "prize" even more unappealing than it already is!

[FindingNamo]

Posted: 1/28/04 at 10:34pm

I didn't know this thread was still alive. Thanks for your feedback, innocent, but Marc Shaiman likes me and goldarnit, that's good enough for me! What the hell am I talking to you for??

[innocentchoirboy]

Posted: 1/28/04 at 11:38pm

that's what we're all wondering, love. way to prove my point. :P

[etoile]

Posted: 1/29/04 at 12:58am

So, there are, "...better ways of making yourself heard than mean and personal comments." ???

You mean like stating that someone post attention seeking cynical
comments? You mean like stating someone has an arrogant disposition? You mean like a pot attempting to call a kettle?

Well, I've read exactly 25 of your post and already I dislike your attention seeking comments.

And why, or why does the phrase "uncouth interloper" come to mind. (No. I can't take credit for that one. Bless his heart.)

For a boy, you're not so innocent.

And I will be the first to say that spelling will NEVER be my forte, but Mon Dieu.

Innocent choirboy, my ass! (And I don't mean that as an introduction),

You have the nerve to join this board and without so much as a "How-de-do" and only 28 minutes of membership time, slam someone who has been an intricate member of this board for more than half a year?

What attracted you to this board? Your love for Theatre, or did you hear we were all so catty here that you just could not resist? How about introducing yourself, posting on the “On Topic Board”, let the members get to know you, and then posting an opinion. We have a fairly healthy community here with all ages, tastes and opinions. When you start contributing to this board in other ways, we might care about what you have to say. Until then, keep the pop psychology to yourself and go see a show.

By the way, who do you think should replace Bernadette and Harvey?

Namo, you shock!

Wow, SueleenGay, thanks for saying what I was striving to relay. I think both Bulldog and Namo are constructive contributors to this board. They are both part of the BWW family. And you know how family can be? We can argue among ourselves, but let some newbie upstart b@astard cousin jump in and start messing with the family...well...we've seen this played out before.

And speaking of pop psychology, I was beginning to wonder when they started allowing unsupervised internet access in a psyche ward?

(Yea, I don't know this post will be deleted before too long.)

[etoile]

Posted: 1/29/04 at 2:11am

And to answer your question about replacing Bernadette and Harvey was this a trick question? Of course, Idina and Sutton.

Has anyone considered that innocentchoirboy is in fact Bulldog in disguise! DA DAH DAHHHHHH!!!!

"They are both part of the BWW family. And you know how family can be? We can argue among ourselves, but let some newbie upstart b@astard cousin jump in and start messing with the family"

And like many families, this one is dysfunctional. When I read some of these argumentative posts between Namo/Bulldog and Albin/Dollypop, it reminds me of the old Carol Burnett Show skit with Eunice and Mamma. It's entertainment

I've never met a choirboy who was anywhere near innocent. Aggressive maybe, curious for sure, but never innocent.
