Lessons and observations during my mini Chiefs Planet sabbatical

After last season’s horrific playoff loss to the Titans and as a fan of 48 years, I decided I needed a break from discussing the Chiefs. The horrific disappointment once again, more shocking ways we discover to lose and hopes that are dashed with some crazy “Because Chiefs” moment: I just wanted to disengage.

For the first month, I read my usual CP threads and had a tough time not logging in to comment or debate someone I disagreed with, especially in the DC Forum. As time passed it became easier to just read a few of my favorite threads and look for something unique. What was truly cathartic was that I realized that arguing with people online that I don’t know was a complete waste of time and energy. I did the same thing on Facebook.

I began to limit what I would read; threads like “Patrick Mahomes”, “What’s for Dinner”, “Drink of Choice”, “Financial Planning”, “Health and Fitness”, “Hot Teacher Student Sex”, “50 Beers to Try Before you Die “, “Florida News” and unique things like Rainman’s recent “Catching a Freighter to China” - That's some awesome shit right there!

My thoughts:
  • I missed engaging with certain CP members I really like and value their opinions or posts. They make CP great for me.
  • Several times I wanted to do a meetup during spring training. My favorite team the Pirates are in the Grapefruit League but I wanted to go see a game with a few local Royals fans or people who came to Scottsdale/Phoenix for Spring Training. Sorry it didn’t happen
  • All the roster changes on the Chiefs made it difficult not to want to comment or react but I took it all in stride. It is a very different team from just 3 months ago and having someone like DJ (who I love as one of the greatest Chiefs ever) and Marcus Peters leave was frustrating just to read and not post.
  • It’s pretty damn exciting to be passing the torch to Mahomes. I’m more than optimistic to say the least and he shined like a diamond against the Broncos. I’m not sure my heart can take many more Titanic let downs…..
  • Some truly funny people here that don’t post often but suddenly pop into a thread after not seeing them for some time and drop some original and unique laughable comments. I’ve pissed my pants and laughed out loud many times in the last 3-4 months from people I never knew existed. BRAVO!
  • There are some CP members that really have no life. They post all day, all night, argue with everyone and I have no idea what the hell they do in life. They dwell in negativity and post hundreds of times every month. They are sad sacks and don’t even realize it. Truly sad.

At the end of the day, my sabbatical from CP is similar to my personal sabbatical I took in early 2017: it opened my eyes to new ideas and opinions, it made me appreciate some people I didn’t really know or respect before, it calmed me down and I disengaged from stupid arguments, I focused my energy and efforts on work and my goals, thus making me appreciate and enjoy my time on CP more than before.

Tha, Tha, That’s All Folks!

You'll probably maintain this attitude if you stay out of DC.

I didn’t post for 4-5 months a couple years ago. I am thinking about doing it again until the season.

Some of you are too damn awesome, though.

Welcome back, scho. Kinda disappointed that your manifesto did not include any hooker stories, though.

I quit posting in football threads when the Smith debate began to rage incessantly.

I read/post in football threads more now, but largely I'm a user for the other threads.

This. We need more stories about hookers on CP.

This guy I work with...dude who is around 60. He gave me a ride home from the bar a couple weeks ago. Everyone from work went to the bar after we got off in the morning and we all got shit faced.

Anyways, the next night when I came in, I thanked him for giving me a ride. He was like, “yeah, no problem...although I had to basically dump you out at your house like a dead hooker.” Everyone (included myself) laughed their asses off at that quote... however...for a split second, I wondered how much experience this guy had with dumping off dead hookers at dead hooker dumpoff sites... I’m sure glad I’m not a hooker!!!

Welcome back, scho... its hard to disagree with a single word of your newfound wisdom

You've inspired me to try, yet again after multiple failures, to try and stay out of DC more, it really is such a pointless waste of time... its 10% reasonable dialogue at best

its never been the same since people were allowed to post personal insults instead of their opinions.

It’s a good thing to stay out. I like interacting with you outside of DC. I like talking baseball with Scho63.

I honestly dont remember a time when insults werent the order of the day in DC... sure, there are pockets of civility among a small set of people on both sides

But thats usually more between long time members who enjoy each others conversation outside of DC, at least thats how I see it... my opinions there have definitely affected conversations I usually had with people on the other side

There doesnt seem to be much relief in sight though, unfortunately... on most of the key issues, the differences seem to be intractable

'Never the twain shall meet' as they say

But credit where due for you, having once been an absolute regular there, you have done a marvelous job of staying almost completely out of the pointless mess that is DC... for people who care about the issues, thats a very hard thing to do

Hats off to ya, I hope to mimic your success to some extent

This site is cool because it makes a mockery out of ordinary trolling. Nobody gets upset when random rival posters say "Chiefs suck." It doesn't matter when people say they hope you die of an orange-aids-infested-dildo

I always laugh at n00bs who think people here get upset over ordinary trolling.

You mean it's never been the same since the beginning? Because people have been posting personal insults since the beginning.
