A Rather Unflattering Article 17 years 8 months ago #1

As a Local I want to apologize in advance for this article.  If I find the author,....well 5th amendment, and such....<br /><br /> www.indianapolismonthly.com/monthly/article.asp?articleid=3 <br /><br />I am posting this here, and if I can also on the gen con forum.  Please read the article, and if so inclined, click on "contact us" and send them your feelings on the matter.<br /><br />Barry Welling

I think people have already threatened death or dismemberment to this guy if they found him.  Most of that came from posts on the Gencon forum.  The author I think was probably trying to be funny and to go for shock value.  His skills as a journalist are lacking.  I wonder how many people have complained to Indianapolis Monthly.<br /><br />Kim

my reply to the Magazine was .....as objective as I could make it....I didn't even think to check the date.  But now that I have it was published in August.

Okay, call me crazy...but this is hilarious!!!  I laughed my butt off.   How can anybody be mad about this?...this is the most insanely hilarious thing I've read in such a long time.  Kudos to the writer!<br /><br />I guess if your a toothpick sized, pimple faced, pale skinned, black dressed, gay goth who goes to Gen Con for the sole purpose of picking up young boys or having Orgy's...THEN you should be offended.<br /><br />Oh well...I'm a toilet humor kind of guy.

Check the thread "Indianapolis Monthly Article" about 2/3 of the way down in the Off Topic section (this one)  Widseth (Dennis) made a valiant attempt at a reasonable approach to this guy and his response was pretty lame.  If you are interested you can read the path of the thread.<br /><br />Dave
