Default Surprise, surprise.

So. Since apparently my knowledge has been raising some flags around here, ill just go ahead and say I'm not really new to these parts.
I have a new username since my old account was banned for life (lmao).

For the new comers:

My name is Billy.
I own a 2006 Saturn Ion Redlines FBO and tuned.
And I own a 2003 Saturn Ion 1 that is currently under the knife getting a turbo lsj dropped in.

My original username was goaliemo. I was also a Mod at one point. Probably gonna get banned again. xD

So derf, that's how I know bones. We've been talking for quite some time again and he is where I'm sourcing my parts for my lsj swap.

lmao, have at it boys. #ecotecFTW

Yeah, I knew that and was just giving you shayt.
Tres uncool the manner in which you departed. But that's the past .

For the record, I left your orig username active for 365 days. Then banned it.

Still in Texas, eh?

Heard from the Mandolin? She inexplicably detonated our friendship (?) by ghosting me after a good year and a half of texting and phone calls. She said she was "simplifying her life."
I told her I now understood why she has no long term friends in her life, and in the future, she might want to consider that people are not inanimate objects and usually don't react the same when you drop them.

I cut everyone out. Wasn't 100% me though.
wife and I split in may. She had a big part in a lot of things.
it wasn't cool. And I do apologize.

The reason I lost all my friends. My car. My sanity. But I can't blame her. I let it happen. I let my life go down that path and I can't do anything more than recover and move on now.

Never happy to hear that others are suffering.

It is encouraging, however, to see that you've already taken enough steps back from the whole thing to assess somewhat objectively what really happened.

You're welcome here.

Just try to keep in mind that many of us are many years your senior; no one's lived the same life, so there is a potential wealth of general life advice to be gleamed from this motley Crue -- but you have to want to hear out what others have to say or it don't mean diddly.

Ànd no, it doesn't have to be in a thread. But if it was, we could do a version of dear Abby.

Welcome back, Billy. Good to hear that your life is back on track. As for being 26, you're NOT that close to most of us in age. My daughter just turned 25 in October and my son hit 29 in November. So, you and my kids are not that far apart. Us old farts can give sound advice from time to time, but I don't meddle in other peoples business. I do offer advice if asked.
