ntrprnr 0 #1 July 18, 2006 Or, perhaps, why I SHOULD. This is an actual situation from a few weeks ago. Nutshell: Guy went out with the girl. She didn't want a second date. Guy then harasses her to SPLIT THE BILL. You can't make this shit up. More importantly, are people really SO technologically inept that they DON'T THINK that shit like this will wind up online? I mean... Come ON! Have fun. Keep liquids away - you WILL laugh and spit through your nose. http://prdifferently.typepad.com/my_weblog/2006/07/how_not_to_act_.html And no, I didn't "out" this guy. It has been forwarded around on email and on the web for the past 3 weeks._______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?" "Even in freefall, I have commitment issues."

kbordson 8 #3 July 18, 2006 It's hard to believe that someone would be THAT persistent for $50! I'm sure he thinks it the principle.... but at some point he should just cut the losses and go on with life. I still can't believe that he would hold on like that.

I hear your good for it man, come on. p.s. what a complete jackass. I would say something, but not knowing my sense of humor it would not be looked on as very funny here.Skymama's #2 stalker - Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Squeak 17 #11 July 18, 2006 Quote And no, I didn't "out" this guy. It has been forwarded around on email and on the web for the past 3 weeks. QuoteAnd before you give me crap for posting it, trust me, it was forwarded about 22 times before it hit me, so it's definitely out there. I'm not printing anything that doesn't already exist. You strike me as a reasonably inteligent guy, then you go and try to rationalise why it is Ok for you to perpetuate somthing, defending youself as though you know it shouldn't be done, but hell others have done it so I will too.You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS!

ntrprnr 0 #17 July 18, 2006 Not so much defending myself, but pre-empting the strike that'll come from the obsessed bloggers who will tag that blog entry. http://tinyurl.com/pxw84 Searching on Darren Sherman brings up about 80 or so posts where he's already been outed - As I said, I just wanted to avoid the hundreds of comments saying "how dare you out a private email," when in fact, I didn't. What scares me most about Darren is the fact that he's a big muckity muck (or was, anyway) at the SEC, I think, or the FED. You'd think hed be smarter than that, and would know better than to leave voice mails like that - that's what happens to them. Oh well._______________ "Why'd you track away at 7,000 feet?"

d_squared431 0 #18 July 18, 2006 I just listened to that and let me tell the only one being a cheap ass is that guy. This guy needs to just except that "the girl is just not that into him." I really can't believe he is calling her for $50 bucks.TPM Sister#130ONTIG#1 I love vodka.I love vodka cause it rhymes with Tuaca~LisaH You having a clean thought is like billyvance having a clean post.iluvtofly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedRacer 1 #19 July 18, 2006 BWAHAHAHAHAHA!! Is there any followup to this story? Did it get posted on other websites & did Darren get any shit for this? I noticed the sound files give out his phone number. Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ImGunnaJump 0 #20 July 18, 2006 The really hilarious part is that she WAS going to go out with him again, she just hadn't had the chance to contact him because she was out of town!"...I've learned that while the "needs" in life are important (food, water, shelter), it's the "wants" in life (ice cream, chocolate, sex) that make it worth the effort."

SpeedRacer 1 #24 July 18, 2006 QuoteWhat scares me most about Darren is the fact that he's a big muckity muck (or was, anyway) at the SEC, I looked at your web search. Evidently this is a different Darren Sherman. The Darren Sherman that is head of the SEC is the head of the SEC over in the UK.

ACMESkydiver 0 #25 July 18, 2006 I know everyone is thinking this is funny, and true it is to some extent...but is anyone else getting creeped out to the point of being kinda scared for that chick? Maybe it's just me, but besides being a real cheap ass, he also seems vengeful and off balance. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
