In the end, people got tired of that shit and they stopped gathering any time they knew he would be there.
When you try to impress people by talking over their heads...And we all know that Jack's posts are WAY over the average GFYers head....Then you end up alienating yourself from the very people that you are trying to impress....And that's just plain fucking stupid.
I have no time in my life for stupid people no matter how smart they may be. LOL...Does that make sense?

There's a lot of value in this Aaron, and I do thank you for it. As with most things, there's always a reason it's that way. Most of you may not know this, but English isn't my first language. I grew up in a Spanish-speaking home and had a bad acccent when I started school. To empower myself over the ridicule, I "suited up" in fancy, flowery speech. When I was a little kid, it made me feel stronger. But, now it just comes off as over-bearing. I apologize to any who have gotten such an impression. I'll keep working on it.
