    There has never been anything funnier, ever, anywhere, than Clubber's a day in the life post. Frozen lemons!

    me and @kingcreole are good friends. worked together at the joint here.
    Him and another gentleman are solely responsible for a minor meltdown on radio at a juco baseball game some years ago.
    I'm doing the game, creole and another guy are in the booth. creole doing his story, and the s.i.d is doing notes.
    Middle of summer, who gives a damn type of doubleheader.
    Ump at first is 65 years old if he's a day.
    Guy hits a fucking pissrod right at him, and as God is my witness, this son of a bitch does not move. Hands on knees the entire time. Misses his head by inches.
    I make the comment that either the first base umpire is either dead or taking one helluva nap.
    The 3 of us proceed to lose our fucking minds laughing.
    I'm laughing so hard, I have to hit the mute button and hold it for several seconds just to try to regain some composure.........in fact, the mute button was held for so long a couple of times, the board operator hung up on me, and I had to call back. I tell the audience of 10's listening that we're having technical difficulties.

    Every time we see each other, we just start laughing.

    Beginning to suspect that some of you aren't actually lonely housewives, which is the base line I've always operated with here.

    Clubber's return reminds me how back in the day, everyone could argue yet quickly find a common ground and bond. We clashed something fierce but then somehow hit it off. Frankly, I think it was the frozen lemons thread which was so fucking outlandishly funny that I had no choice but to acknowledge its brilliance. But I remember arguing with Flash, @Moderator1 , @cranberry and many others, all of whom I count as friends now. I was always arguing with whatever the fuck @QYFW called himself back in the day and he's a great friend (don't tell him I said that).

    Shit seemed to change sometime near the end of the last decade and get more personal and more heated as we all got more entrenched in our stances. I'm sure there's an easy parallel to draw to how awful politics became at the same time. But over time, even me and @outofplace became friendly. And I suppose I'd let @YankeeFan brew me a cup of coffee too. Basically I like everyone here except one guy. @Double Down knows what I'm talking about.

    Unless I missed a memo on the moderators board, Starman was never asked to leave. I suspect he got tired of me telling him to stop posting about the president doing his own daughter
