Is it a good idea to be doing business with him again? I mean, you could try direct his creepy conman's gaze towards your aunts but I hope you don't get caught up too!

My dad died in 1987, my mom kicked the bucket in 2012, which means that I'm on my own now - it may seem strange, but now that I've been released from my abusive parent's yoke, my mental health has improved a great deal (since both of my parents were 'not all in the head, and we were a bunch of abusive and mutually enabling morons.) I'm loving the newly acquired freedom, and this enabled me to aggressively tear up the motley selection of run-down and abandoned real estate properties my aunts were collecting like Pokemon cards. And the last, but not least, I smell a lot of money - you can never have enough money, I reckon. :)

If this really goes trough, I would have ended up with a huge pile of money while permanently severing the ties with my clown aunts. It's win-win situation! :)

Yes, I'd agree that he's a professional conman and a piece of human refuse. Amazingly, he's the exact kind of person I need to get myself rid of Bruno's estate. Aunts are going to get bread crumbs from him, and I'm actually fine about that, since they're stereotypical white trash who don't really deserve anything better. :)

I portrayed myself as a worst piece of poo poo that is only going to keep brewing weapons-grade poo poo, and then some. It would've been a small price to pay me in order to get me out of the picture for good. And that's actually a good scenario, if I got Nicholas involved, poo poo would have had hit the fan in a spectacular manner which the aunts would've lost by default. Paying me for my share of house is actually a lesser evil, because then I would've been out of the picture for good and aunts would've been free to do whatever crossed their minds about the house..

- He's been an addict/alcoholic for umpteen years
- He hit his aunts up for cash because times were tough
- They said no, in accordance with all advice ever not to give money to addicts
- As a result, he hates them, swore revenge, and launched his plots

Wrong. I only revealed myself as a junkie much, much later when my financial situation was actually getting better (there was a several years worth of gap between those two events)

The strained family relationship bomb actually goes all the way back to the 1970s. I had it enough so I set off a big drama/butthurt bomb. The whole thing has been festering for a ridiculously long time now and I finally decided to put my foot down. :)

Yeah this is what I'm talking about. Anne W seemed to take the conclusion "acted like a junkie to them" and used it to justify their actions "didn't give money", which is exactly the kind of poo poo goons do all the time in order to show how the OP / whoever they are targeting, is a terrible person. Just loving give it a rest. People love drawing the worst possible conclusions.

I understood he didn't start playing up the turbojunkie thing until after he hated them as part of the scheme. I'm just pretty skeptical that he successfully kept his addiction totally hidden from them for the years? decades? before that. I've known a lot of addicts in that "no way could they tell, it's definitely a secret" mindset.

I didn't miss it; I was following his saga then. I think it was in TCC at the time, IIRC because his attitude was "I'm going to die anyway so let's see how many drugs it's humanly possible to do."

Again, I'm not judging him, all I'm saying is I can understand why people might decline to bankroll that.

I can't help but he got a lot of his drugs via the NHS, and he was basically begging for grocery money?

How would they know? They knew he was going hungry and doing chemo at the time, why would they suspect drugs?

Addicts always think they're hiding their problem from family/friends a lot more successfully than they actually are, and I think we all know what this money is going to be used for (at least in large part) if ASF gets it. It doesn't sound like he's doing anything illegal to get the money, just manipulating family members he doesn't particularly like, which happens all the time.

But who cares, as long as we get some entertaining stories out of it.

ASF, did you mention taking tramacet recreationally? When I broke my ankle I got some 80 tabs of the stuff but barely took 6, on account of the glaring ''may be habit forming.'' What's the appeal to fuzzing out on painkillers? Don't want to sound snarky, I'm honestly curious.

As a non-recreational long time opiate taker; if you've never taken the stuff it's hard to explain, but just imagine the most comfortable you've ever felt. Like getting out of a nice hot bath and into a bed with pristine clean sheets that is floating on a cloud all the while you're being sung to by angels in the calmest dulcet tones imaginable. That is why people take them. Not only are they chemically addictive but that lure of not having a care in the world for X hours, letting all the stress, drama, pain and suffering of life just simply not exist.

yeah i've taken heavy duty opiates recreationally maybe a dozen times in my life (last time was 5+ years ago) and this is correct, you feel physically amazing and euphoric and your brain just shuts off, which is nice when you deal with constant low grade anxiety and depression. it's pretty much the best feeling in the world the first few times you take them, which is why I'll never take them recreationally again

i've had 2 full open colonectomies and as such have experienced the full gamut of opiates, from dilaudid (nice for 5 minutes but it wears off fast) to percoset (really strong) to norco (makes me itchy in the chestal area but it's nice) and morphine (waking up from surgery you thought was going to take an hour 6 hours later with a self-administered morphine drip is quite a thing).

the best way I can describe it is that feeling you get after you work like a 10 hour day of hard labor, you came home and showered and ate and now you're exhausted but thoroughly sated

if i could get a scrip for percoset id probably never smoke weed again :)
