I’m leaving forever.
Quote:
I know what you’re thinking. Maybe I got annoyed by something someone said. Maybe after two Super Bowls in a row I’m satiated on the Chiefs. Maybe I’m going to prison, or joining Dick Cheney on a barnstorming tour, or maybe the antifreeze actually wasn’t a good idea and I died. The fun of a farewell forever thread is not in knowing the reason. It’s in not knowing, and the mystery behind the disappearance. MrBlond is legendary not because he was here or because he left, but rather because of how he departed. He was DB Cooper jumping out of the Chiefsplanet plane and disappearing into the night, and with that act he became immortal. It is now my time to parachute from the plane, and I can assure you that I will not return. It would be enjoyable to become an unsolved Chiefsplanet mystery in the process, but I can’t do that to you. It’s cruel enough that you will no longer get to read my thoughtful prose and learn from my wisdom. I can’t allow you to speculate forever about what became of me, and to always wonder if that guy with the fake glasses and mustache sitting next to you at the game is me. So I’ve instructed one Chiefsplanet member to reveal the mystery. If this thread ever reaches 1,000 posts, that person will share the reason. But until then, you will have only my boarding pass, a flight attendant’s vague description, and 110,871 posts to remember me by. Farewell, Chiefsplanet!

Has he made any posts since the OP? I know I could search, but just adding to the post total here.

He arrived, he posted, and then one day he said, "This is my last post. It's not due to health or an issue with the board, but for life reasons I'm never going to post again." Or maybe it was even, "I'm never going to be able to post again." And then he was gone. He may have been the first high-post-count guy to leave, too. So the mystery remains of what happened.
In fact, here's the thread: https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/show...78#post1847378 . It may be the most famous thread in CP history. |
