Suh-weet! I have never had respect from anyone before.
My name is Stuart Brough... you killed my father... prepare to die.

KA, I generally really like your posts on this board, the ones in which you use your brain rather than posts which focus on sexuality. I'm sure you'd be in an uproar if some man on the board attacked your sexuality as you did Bob's. Do yourself a favor KA, and don't do it.

O.M.G.
You're not related to that dweeb I "dated" in high school are you? One of only three dates I had then, by the way. Hast thou any kin in SLC with the same last name?

True, that was mean spirited. Bob is outlandishly over-the-top with his bravado laden posts, though, and he has no problem with calling Who Knows a sissy, questioning his manhood, or deriding other posters, so I directed comments his way which perhaps I shouldn't have.
I should take the high ground. I will try harder to control my tongue, or rather my fingers. If Bob would take the high ground and apologize for his remarks regarding other posters on this board, that would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath.

Here's just one of Bob's posts on Who Knows' thread:
My advice:
1. You're weak by not taking it up with the bishop and laying down the law as you see it as father and husband. Are you a passive person?
2. You're weak by soliciting advice on an internet board, and anonymously so.
3. You're weak by straddling both worlds, by seeking solace on this board, and by spending so much time on this board for solace. I take it that exercise, reading and travel are not on your agenda.
4. You're weak by posting evil things about your bishop anonymously yet saying nothing in person. Take a stand, even it is an evil one in abandoning the Church of your ancestry and the faith of your fathers. Be a man, not the knee-knocking weakling you are on this board. Move into my ward and I'll treat you like a man and respect you for your decisions, and enforce them once they are made known to me.

I was irritated by Bob's bravado and stooped to his level. I shouldn't have.

Probably not (if he was a dweeb...)
Hast thou any kin in SLC with the same last name?
Currently, I think my brother (and his wife/kids) is the only kin in SLC area with that particular family name. I might have a cousin who is up there also, but I think he recently moved. The majority of my family that is in Utah is of the Johnson camp (not those kooky Broughs).
I might have one or two name-sakes floating around in the European parts though:

I had a teachers quorum adviser in the late 70s named Brough. Can't remember his first name, dang it. (I think it might have been "Brother" or something.)

I apologize for all my remarks concerning other posters on this board.
Now, please post without vacuity and over-sexualizing everything.
And, yes, Who Knows's posts are weak in a hand-wringing sort of way. Since he/she's anonymous all I can do is critique his/her posts, the questions he/she poses and his/her writing style.

Aww, crap! Crocket's replying to me now! Should I expect Wade back at any minute, too? ;)
Bob, I think Wade could help you with your need to label Who Knows as weak and also with your penchant for excess bravado. Perhaps he could offer you some advice that might spur introspection and lead to a desire to love and be loved and foster mutual respect and understanding? It's worth a try! But you'll have to wait, I'm sorry. Our resident therapist is out of town at the moment. But he should have time to work on you when he returns, since he's given up on assisting me!

PS - Aww, crap again! I've written another vacuous post!
