I have a hard time believing a HS junior seduced a college senior for his money. Usually it goes the other way around...

Did the "5 star sushi restaurant" serve all-you-can-eat fried catfish and hush puppies?

No?

Then I'm calling lardy's story as embellished BS for clicks.

Well, I've officially had the one of the most surreal 24 hours of my life. Given that this is completely uncharted territory, I'm going to try to explain this situation via a short timeline of events.

* After the events from Saturday night and Sunday morning concerning the safety of the Orangebloods poster @hornsfan65, the Orangebloods staff spent the better part of Sunday and today working will law enforcement officials to confirm what had allegedly occurred on the message board. There wasn't a phone number listed in the user's contact information and none of the other listed information was current/correct, so initial efforts to provide both aid and confirmation were unsuccessful.

* By the end of this morning, we had very, very strong reasons to believe that the story that @hornsfan65 had told on the site had been untrue. Anwar Richardson led the investigation for us all day today and eventually confirmed through Amarillo police that @hornsfan65 was alive. The police had spoken with @hornsfan65and that he confirmed that he was safe and claimed his account had been hacked over the weekend. While on a three-way call with Anwar and the police officer, we requested that the officer contact @hornsfan65 and ask if we could contact him.

* Less than an hour ago, Anwar and I spoke with @hornsfan65 over the phone. According to him, he has not used his Orangebloods account in quite a while and he can't explain how this situation occurred or who might have made the posts under his account if it wasn't him. Honestly, we asked a number of questions that he just didn't have answers for and it means that as of this very second, I can't fully explain situation this with complete detail, even if I have strong suspicions about what happened.

The best possible news is that we didn't lose an Orangebloods member this weekend in horrific fashion. I keep reminding myself that this is all that matters. I want to express to everyone that I made repeated attempts to check on his safety and state of mind, imploring with him to talk with us if he needed someone to talk to. However, he was quite insistent that he was in good health and of sound mind.

The bad news is that the a lot of people, including myself, were taken advantage of. All the members of this community wanted to do was be there for someone in a moment of need and that amazing amount of good faith was taken advantage of.

I don't know what else to say other than these three things:

1. Everyone who contributed to the fund that @echeese established in the last 24 hours will have their money refunded. I've told Chuck that I will work hand in hand in any capacity needed to make sure this is done in quick fashion.

2. There is still an active investigation about this on our end. I wouldn't normally write something before an investigation concludes, but this matter required urgent communication between myself and the board.

3. We will work to create a vetting process exists for any fund that is promoted on the site moving forward. We were all just trying to do the right thing, but in the future we're going to have to wait until situations are fully vetted before we support and allow for donations to take place.

A few people have told me that I don't have anything to be sorry about as it relates to all of this, but I don't believe that to be true. The buck stops with me and in retrospect, I would do things a little different today with the ability of a little hindsight.

My sincere apologies.

Oh Gawd, I laughed hard. I guess the 'ol chartered bus trip to Okie lite doesn't fool the UT faithful anymore. He's moved on to fake suicides.

Kerxh's Note was one of the hardest things I've ever seen written anywhere. What a horrific conclusion for Geoff. I don't care how much we hate him and have a right (sort of). That convo with Sullivan was one guy punch after another.

Baylor integrity and "faith" rolled up into one awful person. right there. Do what looks right...not what is right. Keep the pretense up...destroy your fellow human being if you have to...one that you brought into this world. But always, always do the selfish, convenient thing.

I will say a prayer for him tonight. For his "Dad" too.

Like father like son. Geoff has a lot more in common with his dad than just physical appearance. Instead of agonizing over grandpa's death he should have just sent a spray that said "condolences, your grandson, Geoff. And be done with it!

I didn't know the Japanese were big into wings. What's this 5-start wing restaurant he went to in San Fran? I may check it out next time I want to walk among homeless sidewalk ****ters.

But in all honesty, if what he stated is true, that's pretty effed up. I'm not sure how a person could not want to have a relationship with their child, and to also tell them that you wish they had been aborted? That's straight up cold hearted and deserves a herpes flair up.

I was gonna lay out on ragging a guy who, through fault of his own, has such a ****ty dad and miserable family. I feel for anyone who was raised by a single mom in that situation.

But then I remembered what a ********** this miserable fat sack of **** is and well **** it. His mom was a **** and his dad a **** and he's a fat *******.

That was my thought at first, but Dub graduated from Bailure in 1925, not 1975. There's a good chance Dub is the grandpa, though. Those who know him best claim he's been dead for almost a decade now.

Part or most of it may be or even probably is true.

But the aborted part doesn't meet the smell test. I don't know anyone who would go to the trouble to meet with their kid and then tell them that, especially a guy with lots of stuff going on and whose kid makes his living posting stories on the internet. If they want nothing to do with their child, they're just going to ignore him, unless the kid has been badgering him about this for months or years and this is the way to end the badgering.

Either way the story is f'd up regardless of what the truth is.

Maybe his dad was holding out hope for a 120th trimester abortion

i'm sure there is a lot of paraphrasing and re-wording the message in there that makes it sound more abrasive than it was...though the underlying theme is probably accurate.
