Worse.

Commish’s wife left him and cleaned his clock in the divorce. Other couple split up too. There were serious allegations about what really happened. After the divorce he just became this complete A-hole in every possible way. Alienated everyone who ever remotely cared about him…

until he died a couple years later in an auto accident at the hands of a drunk driver.


damn this thread got real

rickroll you should've gone out like costanza when he was trying to get fired from the yankees

I was trying to verify a story from a medieval studies Prof years ago. The story is simply that nobles had to be right handed. So if the child was showing left hand dominence, they would tie the arm until he relearned to use his RH. The first two pages of websearch came up empty for Europe. Does this come up in head kicking or disserting?

my understanding of it was that this is a myth and it was only with the industrial revolution where factories were setup for right handed people and thus it was like "oh man, timmy will never get a job in the factories if he doesn't learn how to operate machinery designed for a righty"


I think your prof was full of it. There are a lot of historical examples of bias against left-handedness, going back at least to Roman times (the Latin word for left is "sinister"), but nothing systematic like that which I've come across.

The Victorian examples are mostly in the upper class, too, so I doubt they were looking for factory jobs. They just were desperate for their kids to be "normal" and, especially, to have perfect table manners which included which hand to use for which things.


Did anyone else get a text regarding RtP?


I got a text from RTP's mother. He was in a serious accident of some sort and has multiple fractures. He was airlifted to a trauma unit and is now in stable condition. His dog Willie is fine. His phone is broken. I got the text while sleeping and texted his mother. I will update when I hear back from her


The strange part was her saying his phone was broken, but somehow she got our numbers, but I guess most people have their phones linked to tablets and whatnot. I keep waiting for the please send gift cards to this address in Nigeria. I actually hope someone hacked his phone and he's not in a hospital somewhere.

She answered me and said he's in Palm Desert hospital, but being transferred to LA soon.

blunt force trauma tends to break stuff including electronics. RTP is a pretty organized younger generation dude who I am sure has stuff backed up/organized significantly better than guys that have the olds. I exchanged texts with his mother and she just wants people to support him during his recovery. From personal experience the recovery from getting completely wrecked is fcuking long and lonely.

I was going to suggest we all send best wishes thru his PG+C thread, although I notice that has just recently been closed (I'm guessing by mod, although weird timing if by him?).

Yeah, he closed that thread himself.


glad you guys got that text too. hoping for a sound recovery for RTP.


by marknfw

Yeah, he closed that thread himself.

Is that weird timing?

GhopeallisokG


Yeah, RtP seems like a good guy. Best wishes for a full and speedy recovery.


Oh Jesus, I’m very sorry to hear.

Wishing for a quick and full recovery.

I will not ask for details as I’m sure the situation is very personal.

Best to his family.

sorry to hear that rtp, get better soon


****, that’s no good. Poor guy and hope we get more detail and that he recovers quickly

I bet his mother is in a real state as well.


All the best, RtP.

I don't think so. Said he wanted to unplug for a bit, probably because he was planning on doing some traveling.


terrible news, rtp in the hospital and we just lost Alan Bostick :(
