Hopefully your kids will appreciate your efforts and take care of you when you get old. :)

200 donations.

I'm about to make manager at McDonalds. I've put in a lot of years, so it'd be really hard to come up with something for me that would have me give this up.

I'll make you an offer you can't refuse ;)

Lol thanks :)

Lady......... I am so sorry I didn't meet you in Vegas......that place was out of control.. I was torn in a million directions. I hope all goes well for you and tell Jact he better keep me updated. :)

Can anyone spell C L U S T E R F U C K ???????

C L U S T E R F U C K

I cant wait to meet you (we are going to summer internext ) You are a trip . :)

Awesome! AFter our icq chats I'm looking forward to meeting you as well ---

good post from localg

Let's give Brad more time to complete transfer and leave this behind.

See western union is a PAIN in the ass.. i hate that shit..id rather send a check and let her find a bank to cash them..or heck send money orders..

Why cant she get paypal?

I just sent Brujah money and a new mouse anyone else need anything?

I love other peoples drama..it gives me wood..

Hehe well we'll be in Toronto for the meet there so I'm sure I'll see you there. It will likely be the last time we're going to be anywhere for a while because baby is due March 4th :) Thanks though! Jact will keep everyone updated :)

What does it say about worthiness that someone can't get a check cashed and can't get paypal?

I posted that (angeleyes)........I didn't realize ICE was still logged in to my pc......but we both wish you luck.

LM,

you are my hero.. having three kids and the hysto. You are one brave and strong girl.
:thumbsup

Hahahaha - they won't! :1orglaugh 48 hours of labor and a C-section for me. I've been trying the guilt trip on my kid for 20 years and he just looks at me funny. :mad:

Wow?

My bank takes all checks and puts a hold on the funds until they clear. Never really tried to cash an out of state check, I am assuming that if I didn?t have the funds in my account they would say no.

What drama this could have been if the donation checks bounced!

Brad what you did was nice and Tala should get all the money donated to her, but I would hold off a bit longer before sending the money since you could possibly occur some charge backs over this mess. And, do not give up hope on helping people.

Tala, I was happy to extend a helping hand but what I didn?t expect was how you handled this situation. Money that you are not expecting is a gift and, damn, with most vendors I wait net 90 to be paid so I doubt I would make such a fuss over it so soon or worry about pledges and wish lists.

Tootie, guess you learned your lesson. Play it safe?and keep on designing.

Stay tuned for tomorrow's episode...

Tala's husband will come to GFY asking for donations because poor, poor Tala has had to be admitted to a mental ward for nervous breakdown over GFY threads.

hehe thanks sweetie :) Sorry we missed you too! :)

haha, stupid bitch took people for a ride for $5g's AND have a nurve to ask for more... and another bitch got nothing to do but to act like she's such a fucking friend by asking for the rest of cash.... I understand a part about health 100%, but don't you think it's fucked up to ask for 10% of total money YOU ALREADY GOT !? even if he keeps it (i think he should due to this sutiation) you got 90% of the fucking money !!!!!!!!!!

Also, you saying he raised the money for you which you didn't ask for, are you fucking stupid ? heh

Either that or INCREDIBLY stupid..

No really, heh thanks. They are more than worth it :)

i havent read the thread, but im willing to bet that tootie and tala are on the phone yealling at eachother.. something like this:


tootie: hello
tala: you bitch!
tootie: im sorry babe i was just trying to help
tala: fuck you whore!
tootie: babe, dont be like that, i didnt mean to get you in trouble
tala: you pig fucker! I will kill you!
tootie: listen ho, I said I am sorry.
tala: you cocksucking slut!
tootie: click

Tala : Eat shit, die, and rot in the foulest sewers of hell you completely clueless bastard children of festering pus-filled zitbags.

I wonder if Tala will pick this as one of the top ten gfy threads of the day? :Graucho

You're a bastard - I was eating lunch when I read that and now I can't see what I'm typing for the mess on my screen.

What really pisses me off about this whole mess and did right from the start is that there are a lot of people in this industry who face hard times but they never come begging to the boards.

They put their heads down and work their way through the whole situation and struggle until they succeed and we never hear about them because they are too proud to beg.

Then there are others who do the exact opposite.



:2 cents:

What a fucked up thread. I think Brad should keep a few bucks for his trouble with this bullshit and the remaining balance should be sent to some charity that isn't going to bitch about the size of the check you give them. :2 cents:

As for the remaining $900 medical bill balance Tala, just send them a little money each month, what you can even if it's just $20 or so and they should leave you alone about it. You're back to work now so this shouldn't be a problem. I've had the same problems with medical bills and just sent them a little each month untill it was paid off and they never bitched a bit.

I can't believe I read the whole thread...enough said

haha no shit.

I don't know Brad personally,

but hats off to him for starting that thread helping out Tala and going through all hassles... you are a good man.

Respect!

:thumbsup :thumbsup

hehehehe

OKay , i wasnt going to post, but after 45 mins of reading all 5 pages, i kinda feel like i have to now.

I'll start with;

Tootie: Lesson learned, aye?! Keep your nose out of other peoples business.

Brad: You're a good man (from what i have read). I'd take the advice of others and keep a few bucks. :winkwink:

Tala......where do I start????!!

So ya didnt ask for money, ok. Brad did, out of curtosy & good heart. BUT you did do A LOT of things wrong!!! And Im about to call you out on all them right now!

1st off: You should have had Med. Insurance. If you did, but still owed $1,500......that is YOUR problem! Not ours!

2nd: You got WAY MORE than what you NEEDED!!!! N..E..E..D..E..D!! But you didnt get want you wanted! (Which was over $5k!)

3rd: If I was you, in HIGH RESPECT & GRATITUDE for all donations, I would've taken $1500 for the bills, and ANYTHING extra, divide amoung the ones who donated. Give it back! And be grateful you got ANYTHING from ANYONE!

4th: You posted pics of 3 checks. *YOU* said you *GOT* the money, had PROOF and SHOWED it to GFY! Whats the problem here???!! Bank wouldnt cash it?? BULLSHIT! If you have a checking account, they will do ALOT of things to make sure you get that money. Either hold it till clears (if you didnt have the money to match the checks in your account) or about 5 other options.

5th: You got a keyboard as a gift. As much as you like it, if you NEEDED money, sell it!! If you are the hard up on cash!!! I know people that have sold CLOTHES to get by when times are tough. As ADULTS do! We do WHAT IT TAKES TO GET BY!!!

6th: Complaining how you never got a Laptop?? Are you fuckin KIDDING ME???? If you got it, AWESOME! If not, so what??? Its not like you paid for it!!! Get over it, move on, SHIT HAPPENS!!!

7th: If I was you, I'd stay friends with Tootie, maybe she'll give you the Xbox for winning the Longest Thread of the Week.

Sounds like you got a lot of free shit from alot of really good hearted people!!!

Sorry this was so harsh, but babe, you need a fuckin reality check!!!!! :warning

My :2 cents:

$900 behind isnt crap

When I had my accident, nobody helped me out with a damn nickel. I had to sell my car to keep the house payments current. My insurance money on my bike went towards bills. I had absolutely no income for 2 months, and on top of my regular expenses (about $8k a month) I had huge medical bills piling up.

I just had to tighten my belt a notch and make adjustments and sacrifices.

But now I'm back on my feet. I'm able to walk again, got new wheels, got the income pumping again, and learned who my friends are. That which doesnt kill you, makes you stronger.

Nobody bounces back like MrPheer :321GFY

This thread is so sad...excuse me now while I go get some work done...

Can I get a donation for loss of earnings due to having had to read that whole thread?

i donated to tala ...

if you believe that a person needs help, dont be jaded. I have no opinion on this issue other than when someone needs help, i will help them. if (and im not making any accusations) there is misdeeds on the part of the recipient ... thats their karma. good people finish first.

by the way, donations from GFY saved this guys life:

:2 cents:

I doubt it. It is not porn related...but would make a good story of people trying to help another person, and why most people tend to stay out of others' personal troubles.

I predict this to to get worse.

I predict brad going in the hole and ending up oweing his bank money due to fund issues because of chargebacks or whatever the case.

He handed over the money before anything cleared, I expect him to regret that, this is only from experience.

THIS TOPIC SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN POSTED ON A PUBLIC FORUM.

The only BLAME that I put on anyone is TOOTIE, whose attempt to, what, INTIMIDATE/BACKSTAB/PUBLICLY PRESSURE/SLANDER Brad is just SO fucking immature.

I donated a few bucks to Tala, and I hope that she gets every last cent ... but you just DON'T DISCUSS THIS KIND OF THING IN PUBLIC. So fucking rude.

Save this kind of post for cheating sponsors and crooks, not someone who tried to help a friend in need.

Fuck, people, this is why we have ICQ.


:2 cents:

You know. This thread is just sad. Very fucking sad.

Some of you people sicken me... truely utterly sicken me.

Some may charge back out of stupidity but most will realize it only hurts Brad, and will let it past. Brad tried to help and Tala was a bit to needy. tootie messed up by trusting.

Tala can twist all the words she wants into eloquently statements but bottom-line she couldn?t deposit the checks and wait for them to clear. If someone (or bbs members) did that for me, I sure wouldn?t be complaining or questioning that I want more; publicly or privately.

Leaves an ugly thought to donate (help out another member of this bbs) here.

good fucking christ let this thread DIE

mission accomplished and all that shit; point made you know what i mean?

That sucks. My bills aren't 8k but I've damn sure sold off all my belongings to get by during hard times before. Humbling process.

LOL we can all use that

definitely going 6 pages.

people should just stop fucking bumping it man

I really have no opinion one way or the other. I thought about donating $1K at the time and something (fate I guess) made me not. ..but..

regarding your 3rd comment...

Better than trying to give extra money back to sources which would have required more of Brad's time, it might have been better to donate it to a worthy charity.

regarding your 4th comment...

I hadn't had any thought about what Brad might or might not have put into this until I read your comment. Brad did send the money. He did his part. In fact it sounds like he bent over backwards in finding alternative ways to get it to her when she couldn't *cash* the 3 checks.

Not than anyone is owed any explanation, but I just have to wonder what the situation was with the checks at the bank in the first place.

bump for the sig buying crew

bump

easily, probably 7
