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!

I always enjoyed Pats takes. Good poster and seemed like a good dude. I didn't know anything about his health. Godspeed Patteau!
I don't post near as much as I used to but for some reason I can't quit this place. I continue to look. It like looking at the carnage of a train wreck. You just can't look away. |

This makes me sad to read. I tried to do some searching of the archives, but I'm pretty sure that patteeu, Taco John, memyselfi, BIG DADDY and a handful of others were responsible for the existence of DC. It was quite a debate and took quite a long time to get community buy-in to push the political talk to a sub-forum. But it was the right thing to do. Everything improved, even the political debates.
I quietly bailed on DC in 2010 or so, because I saw the shifting nature of the GOP into what it became publicly under Trump. I hope patteeu is happy and healthy in his next steps in life. And someone tell him I'm grateful for Dick Cheney raising a strong and honorable daughter. |

Why do people need to leave this place forever? If you need a break, just take a break for awhile. Or just continue to lurk.
Whatever the case, Patteeu, I hope you find peace in your life and wish you the best. |

Yeah, I don't get the whole announcement thing either. Just go do whatever it is that you do. If you feel like posting again, then post again. There's no reason why anyone has to officially quit. It mostly seems to be attention-whoring. Last edited by loochy; 04-29-2021 at 07:48 AM.. |

Well since you’re gone and not James Bond, I guess your confidant can release the reason any time.
