[QUOTE=Rhenae;47305518]Mind sharing said inconsistencies?[/QUOTE] He's gone through loads of crazy stories over the time I've known him, and very few of them end up lining up with each other. I mean, he claims that his parents have been abusive to him for ages in a specific way, but I've never heard a single thing about it, and heard him say stuff to the exact contrary of it up until recently. Never any indication of it. And loads of ridiculous stories that I had trouble believing, especially keeping in mind the pace at which events seem to unfold for him. I dunno if you've read his thread he made last month or so, but things seemed to move incredibly fast there, and there are other examples of this kind of thing happening. He told me once that he found a gun in the woods, and that he'd hidden it under his bed, and blah blah, was having a total freakout about it, and then not 2 minutes later said the police had come and taken it away and some other shit I've forgotten about. I'm sure other members of the steam group can remember other stuff. Something about shooting an ex girlfriend out a window with a paintball gun?
I don't mind that Hunter is asking for cash, but what I find weird is that he's trying to make it a whole social media campaign by asking us to spread it to reddit, Twitter, Facebook, and 4chan with a hashtag. Like these people don't even know Hunter but he wants money from them, where there are people on gofundme with infinitely worse situations. He's a cool dude, and I understand his situation, but he shouldn't really be asking outside of Facepunch or friends/family.

[QUOTE=SIRIUS;47305513]well it's a dumb thing to get mad about[/QUOTE] So is people writing their statements like questions? I didn't go "people who give a shit" at you because I didn't like your opinion, and I'm just a little confused at why you felt the need to.
been crunching some numbers here: Yearly RIT tuition is aprox. 47,000 dollars a year. Add in book costs for four years and you've got a grand total of tuition of about ~180,000 dollars. Of course, there are other things to pay for such as insurance and living expenses, but I don't see the total getting up to 300,000. numbers for thought [editline]11th March 2015[/editline] numbers for thought about the entire hn donation thing

The meds to my knowledge are pretty expensive.
[QUOTE=maddogsamurai;47283952]I think a college buddy of mine is going to crash a High School prom because girls. I think I should stop him. Should I stop him?[/QUOTE] Update: 1. He's blown off Adult Proms(events where former college kids replicate the feeling of being in a prom). Says that "they're overrated." I told him that he should still go to meet people, but replies "Morp it is, then." 2. Was recommended to call some hookers, but says that he's "not that kind of guy." Thanks us for the notion, though. This guy's gonna get in SO much trouble, all because he wants some tail. He's got a good form, but he has a mind of immature child who spews anime quotes/references 24/7 along with an over-bloated ego. It seems that anything will do for him, and that mindset scares my friends and I. Guy's so far gone that I don't think I can bring him back.
-snip late-
Maybe Hunter shouldn't be asking for an entire RIT education plus all other possible costs in the first place. If anything, the dude needs to forget about that, go to a basic community college, ask for money for THAT (10k for 2 years roughly), and get a trade degree. That'll keep him at least sustainable.
[QUOTE=Rhenae;47305698]Living and crohns meds? The meds to my knowledge are pretty expensive.[/QUOTE] with insurance the co-pay shouldn't be too bad. and Connecticut has its own marketplace for healthcare, so finding an affordable plan to cover him wouldn't be difficult.
I can't justify a person I've never met asking for 300k. My family has never seen money like that their entire lives let alone an individual.
Even on Humira's website, they say that the co-pay can be reduced to as little as 5 bucks.

Gotta love it when I finally remember something really important that I need to do, then a few minutes later I forget it.

Whenever reddit gets wind of a youtube video and the next 50 thousand comments are like: Brony McFedora -insert random troll comment about whatever the video is- Signed, Brony McFedora, level 4 moderator of /r/atheism, extreme fedora tipper blah blah blah that and then the 60+ replies of people who don't have internet common sense and begin to fall for the troll. seems like the newest wave of cancer spreading throughout the youtube comments
[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;47301953]Little update, she got yet another complaint and the team leader saw her personally at his office. She came back crying, still on her cellphone, took her coat and left. Felt bad for the crying, but she got what she deserved. Her constant stalling with customers were hurting everyone here. I don't know yet if she's fired or just suspended though.[/QUOTE] New update, not only did she not get suspended, nor fired, nor anything, she fucking knew I and my coworker did the complaints and told me "If you have a problem with me, tell me in my face. Don't talk in my back" Well guess what, if official complaints won't do shit, I don,t think speaking to you will do any good, considering you are unwilling to do anything that requires effort on your part, seeing how you rely on everyone else all the time, you fucking cunt.

Reason Number 1 Why Flak should not be allowed to be in charge of any important Web pages ever under any circumstances including when he puts himself in charge of it because it's his website - [t] http://i.imgur.com/HfBHCX7.png[/t] He fails to do testing before pushing shit out.
still sad that Bob Simon is gone, I love his human interest pieces on 60 Minutes :(

[QUOTE=AcidAmbience;47308002]i dont understand; his parents are dicks and now he has no money so he's asking for money where does it not link up[/QUOTE] To be fair, scams have happened with the same context on these forums.
[QUOTE=AcidAmbience;47308002]i dont understand; his parents are dicks and now he has no money so he's asking for money where does it not link up[/QUOTE] Read the thread.
[QUOTE=Luxuria;47305795]I can't justify a person I've never met asking for 300k. My family has never seen money like that their entire lives let alone an individual.[/QUOTE] Holy hellfire, I thought he was asking for a hand, not for us to pay him a king's ransom. I was honestly on the fence about this whole situation, but this kind of of confirms that this guy is somewhat fucking with us. Either that, or he has no real grasp of reality asking for 300,000 dollars from total strangers. All that money just for college? I'm sure if you were really having financial troubles, you would start by [I]choosing a cheaper college.[/I] I really try to be polite and judge every situation after most facts are known but I think I have to call bullshit on this one. If it's legit he could have handled this so much better.
I think windows update did that thing again where it tried installing a video driver on top of my Nvidia Driver and corrupted it goddamnit this is a pain in the ass to fix
- Got shot - Hears gunshots a lot - Got stabbed - Got a deadly infection - "Died" for an hour - Parents viciously abusive - No money ever - Nobody cares about him - School is super difficult - No money for school - Still at school but no money - Chrohn's Disease - Mental issues - Bad neighborhood Yeah when you just keep racking these up it doesn't make [I]any sense[/I]. He's a complete fucking liar and you should cut contact with him.
Bullshit critical hits in games. I was driving a Montana class battleship in silent hunter 4 and got 1 damn point of hull damage out of 100. Queue to the entire fucking stern section flooding because the shitty bulkhead broke. What do I even use it for if all the guys in charge of damage control don't know their ass from their elbows and can't fix a damn leak with working pumps? Its not so much infuriating as it was sad and irritating watching an American super battleship get outdone by a stray shell from a ship built in 1913 that's just...bleck. Edit: to make matters worse the stupid helmsmen was trolling me the entire time I watched it sink by saying the depth in increments of 10ft. That's what I get for not using a submarine.
[QUOTE=AcidAmbience;47308002]i dont understand; his parents are dicks and now he has no money so he's asking for money where does it not link up[/QUOTE] I need money too but I'm not going to make up a sob story on the internet and beg for money on an internet forum, its sketchy as fuck and you need to be more skeptical whenever people ask for money over the internet, its not exactly that difficult to lie and farm sympathy points from people.
