He was on 66th and Madison in some store called Judith Ripka. I got his autograph (I sacrificed my NY Giants hat that I was wearing) but I couldn't get a picture with him. I was such a geek and I might have gotten him sick because I've got a bit of a cold and I accidently spit on him while I was rambling.
I said I've been following his whole career from Ole Miss to now and I wished good luck in Arizona.
He's a very cool guy but very timid
and post it here or nobody will believe you
Dupe Fail
He said he'd been following my whole career from Tennessee to now and wished me good luck in Arizona. Abbey and I had a good laugh over that once security took care of him.
God I hate meeting creepy kid fans, I just act timid in hopes they'll leave me alone.
Amazing someone here would have enough time on their hands to make all this bullshit up.

2) I start a thread giving Art some medicine (well deserved, by the way), and I get ripped to shreds. "Anak," on the other hand, starts a thread and the paparazzi turns out.

if he's a fake person, it makes you looking like a fucking numbtard!
just ouch
that's what, 200 hours of wasted life? all while the guy on the other hand is laughing his ass off that you actually care about him?
i'd be a tad bit embarrassed. guy.
If Anak is a dupe, this is a person who is epically failing at life so hard someone should write a screenplay about it.
Attention whore faggot...
should I feel violated if he's fake?
"Anak" strives to fit in -- the dupe has changed his strategy
Bill, it was open. Call tomorrow, I swear I'm not joking
anak on the other hand......
So you want me to stop by tomorrow to verify?
For what it's worth, I believe him. I also don't think he's a dupe, just a really strange dude.

Not saying Anak actually met him, but there is that possibility.
if you think that "Anak" the facebooker is a real person, then you are entirely missing the point of this dupe. this isn't just a BBI dupe, this is a life dupe. we're looking at a career chameleon here. this guy could be like a child predator or something.
...slowly backing from keyboard.
I have no access to the systems because I graduated and a friend of mine who worked with student transcripts in the Dean's Office graduated as well.
The only other method is some pretty absurd Facebook stalking, and seeing as how I despise every single solitary aspect of Facebook (I have a page I do not maintain so that friends will shut the fuck up about it), I'm really not up for that.
HOWEVER you can take his name from his Facebook page and then start scouring the internet via Google for things that would confirm if this guy truly exists.
I doubt he's a dupe.

Its very simple from here on out. I know folks who buy from that store. They will get a chance to ask the store manager tomorrow.
18 hours or so and folks may be eating crow...so in the mean time can we not expose ourselves as enjoying being bullies and piling on?
Its obvious that Anak could be telling the truth.
Thanks

but I'm also a fence sitter so that may make my opinion invalid (looks at jake)
Believe it or not I actually kinda believe you..but that might be the vodka shot talking.
But seriously-this is a soap opera
Looks like this is legit.

You have quite the stalk....errr, fan club Anak.
Maybe Jlukes will jump out and kiss you as part of his hunt you down ritual.
Idiots.

Anak--watch your back....jlukes is on the hunt and just may kiss you when he finally hones in on your exact location.
I think I know that set of blocks on Madison store by store and that neighborhood well....not many doctors offices that far south.
From south of 66th why wouldn't you take the 57th street buses over to the West Side instead of the 79th buses? Thats more than 13 blocks north instead of 7 blocks south and the train up?
Besides, why not the busses up Third and/or Madison which cut over on 79th?
Why walk 14 blocks to get a bus?
Why you guys feel the need to attack him for being a dupe when every bit of evidence shows he is not is beyond me.
Lets just move on with life and let Anak live his
This was about as innocuous a thread as I've seen. Yikes.
Not nearly as entertaining though.
And for the sake of all that is grand about college, stay nearly every weekend, go home once a month.
My weekends this year have been noticeably more fun this year and I've met at least 10-15 new people who I'm fond of (and I'm not just talking women). Keep at it.
Since then this kid has put up with some substantial crap, and it gets old for everyone.
I still think it's funny.
West Side for living East Side for women
Rob=0
If it's not for you then don't transfer?
We've got a winning record again this year and might win our conference.
btw, hope you are doing well.
I am off the thread...I just think we ought to leave Anak alone.
he sounds like a kid
if he is not...he still needs space not ridicule
Its just the right thing for a decent person to do
How hard is it to do the right thing?
But Rutgers is a good school and you should try to stick it out. Come on man, kick ass in school and try to make some friends.
College is a ton of fun, trust me.
Do you care that much?
That is pretty weird amigo.
my intuition tells me if he found out it was a lie, he'd have kept it to himself?
I'm also considering a CUNY (but the problem is no dorming)
what kind of sorcerer is this guy?
I think part of your problem is you are always doing what people expect or what you think people want. You have to push yourself to excel, but you also have to know yourself and what is best for your personal and professional development
You need to stop that kind of mindset. Do what YOU feel comfortable with, what YOU want to do. Don't make your decisions based on what other people will think of it.
Absolutely no reason to be embarrassed about it.
But please do one thing, do not become a Yankee fan if you go to school up there. I know that's very close to the stadium
I am traveling like mad these days but I have the two home games in December. Hopefully I will make one of them.
Anyway...it would be good to see you and bunch of the folks again
take care
your post slamming him and calling him a blowhard awhile back was easily one of the worst posts ever on this site.

Yea I feel like an idiot
He doesn't really know the limits of his awesomeness.
nobody can prove that anak is a real person and there's genuine doubt as to whether he's real.
Ask Anak or Mook or Gmen or Ash about that if you would like

FUCKIN DUPES!
Just like Art was ABSOLUTELY away from BBI because the election's over.
So many questions...
Did he really meet Eli?
Pics to prove?
Over/under 50x Anak gets called a dupe?
Give me time to catch up!
"I was wrong and I'm a fucking asshole?"
I'll make sure I prove that he's real if you will admit how much of a dickhead you really are
Lets do it only if its easy for you guys...the wives may not like you abandoning them pre the festivities. They may poison the cranberry sauce in retaliation
Unforgivable...
I don't know anything about Yeshiva University, but if you want to pursue a career in business and you plan on living in the NYC area, it can't hurt to have the word "Yeshiva" on your resume. If you plan on living in Biloxi, Mississippi, it might not be as helpful.
My other advice is to load up on the math-oriented business classes like Finance, Accounting, and Economics; rather than the more concept-oriented classes like Marketing and Management. The concept-oriented classes are easier, but you don't really learn much that you couldn't figure out on your own, whereas the math-oriented classes will give you some real tools and will be valued more by companies that might give you your start.
Unless you want to go into sales.
Anyway, e-mail me senor.
Karate Chop!
Remember, some guy just fooled you on the INTERNET.
If you want to make money right away, specialize. If you want to be a lawyer and just want to go a direct route, take paper-writing classes and work really, really hard at fine-tuning arguments, structuring papers, etc.
If you want to do business, follow Milton's advice. He definitely knows what he's talking about.
After some thought....forget it...some folks will doubt it even if it can be easily verified Eli was there tonight.
In the end, I came back to the idea its not up to Anak to prove who he is....its up to us to act well or not.
So yes...I did take multiple views of it during the thread.
Now I wish I never posted. Got bored and got caught up. dumb on my part.
Anyway, thats over.
lets email and try to make this work
Good night all
(grin)
Holy hell.. if anything screams "get out of the house!!!" that is IT.
In 2006, I wanted Antonio Cromartie, Jimmy Williams, Jason Allen, Marcus McNeill...
That night was one of the best of my entire life, I'm glad I was with a ton of my Giant fan friends... what a celebration that was.
I asked the GF not to come over, and watched it alone in my standard 92 home jersey and flannel pj's. One of my best memories ever. Of course my neighbors heard every scream.
We ordered a ton of wings but I couldn't eat during the game because of how nervous I was.
Even if the Giants were to win the Super Bowl again this year... it would be absolutely unbelievable and I would LOVE every second of it... but the way last year happened, watching the playoffs unfold as the huge underdogs week after week and then capping it off by doing the unthinkable and completing the biggest upset in Super Bowl history... man, I don't think I'll have witness a moment in sports as incredible as that one for the rest of my life. I'd do anything to re-live it!
this thread is awesome. There's so much shit going on.
I don't know why I feel why I do as probably 90% would say the latter title is gravy, but I want this repeat very badly.
But hey, I'm with you guys... I want nothing more than a repeat. We're certainly on the right track.. let's just hope things keep going this well. Another playoff run and Super Bowl celebration would be an amazing way to start 2009.
It will be so cathartic if we repeat this year and if somehow it takes us beating Dallas 3x this year to do it, and if we manage to do it, oh man will that be great.
you guys really don't like this guy
I bet when he handwrites "Elisha," he dots the "i" with a heart.
No, YOU'RE a stalker.
No, YOU'RE a stalker.
NO! YOU'RE a stalker!!!
Which is worse, an alleged dupe posing under the guise of an oblivious kid, or the masses of adult posters -- those making said allegations -- allowing themselves to drawn into this disaster. At best, Anak turns out to be a dupe and tires of whatever game he's playing. At worst, he really is a dumb kid and this daily pile-on continues.
Enjoy.
That's "at worst."
Why the hate for community colleges? It my my only option after my .00000008 GPA my freshman year.
Can I have Jlukes as a stalker? My current one sucks.
He's my favorite stalker, too! I'm buying him a sweater for Christmas. Might be hard, though. What sweater do you get the guy who has them all already?
Yet we also constantly see silly threads and/or supposed "I didn't know that was something bad" posts from him at the rate of 2-3 times a week.
When does it become obvious that immaturity is not the reason?
JEWELRY STORE GUY: Good morning. May I help you?
BBI GUY: Yeah, last night did you guys have an Eli Manning thing?
JEWELRY STORE GUY: Excuse me, sir?
BBI GUY: Eli Manning. Super Bowl quarterback? Hello?
JEWELRY STORE GUY: Ah. Well, there was an event, but it was in the late afternoon. He was here, yes.
BBI GUY: Did you happen to see a little guy there getting an autograph? Dark hair. Kinda looks like that chick from "Friends," just with short hair?
JEWELRY STORE GUY: Sir, there were many people here.
BBI GUY: His name's Anak. Anyone by that name there?
---click---
26 second later, BBI GUY posts:
HE'S A DUPE!!!
JEWELRY STORE GUY: The thing is, the guy who said his name was Anak? The sneezer? He was about 45 years old.
Also, I go to a very small school, the academic classes are atrocious but the school is absolutely terrific for me in terms of my major. Don't belittle yourself over going to a smaller or 'less prestigious' school; who cares.
And finally, I took a train back home to watch the Super Bowl with my father and it is one of the best moments I've ever witnessed. I was on the floor holding onto my dog as my heart almost literally stopped during 'the drive.' Nothing can ever top that playoff run and Super Bowl in terms of emotion after all the shit our team and us as fans have been through the past several years. It's so surreal, and going all the way again this year for a repeat is the only thing that can come close to it.
Anak : 11/17/2008 10:15 pm
I really want to be the GM of the Giants. Haha"
SURE! Take a brotha's job away.
Love the Reese. Hate the Anak. Well not really but its a popular stance on BBI ranking right behind the "wide stance".
PLEASE CALL
On 3 ... 2 ...
If that happens, I strongly suggest you go into hiding...
I really hope he doesn't get sick because of me... Eli drank like 4 glasses of champagne from what I saw
I was standing outside the store for like 30 minutes hoping to come in

when he signs
You can't find any SB swag he signed with his #. Its also next to impossible finding his photos with a signed #. I have looked repeatedly because i firmly believe those with his #'s are going to be worth quite a bit more then the ones without due to the scarcity
That was a dumb idea on my part.
Truth is folks will always isolate and rip the defenseless among them. Its a tactic that works for those who mask fragility with aggression...distracts the mob from oneself and literally feels good.
There was a kid called Martin who we all piled on in freshman year high school. Martin was smaller and rounder and softer and stuttered a bit and did awkward (but never obnoxious or rotten) things and his Mom picked him up from school when we all took the subway. It was funny, it was witty, the game was to be funnier than the next guy. Martin could not deal. So it got louder, more frequent and worse.
I was good at it. Verbal aggression came naturally. I had no conscience about it. After all I was "with" all the other guys.
Martin did not know what to do.
First day of sophmore year the Dean of Students came over the speaker system and told us that Martin solved the problem over the summer.
I am sure this is very different....but thats to Anak's credit...not ours.
Thanks for your post rptl...speaking out matters and calls us to account in ways that should make us better
Time to man up. Lots of apologies are in order.
welcome to reality. nice to have you with us.
For someone who has no problems whatsoever dishing it out, you seem to get offended easily.
That said: dupe.
Nor the point and intent of the poster to the community....nor the experience nor the self protective knowledge earned in life. Not the same. imho.
However, our own actions are in each case our responsibility
I looked up and said,"Eli Manning?!". He said,"Oops I'm sorry. I thought you were someone else."
Eff Beez! Eff Jake! and Eff Motley!
Who's next???
As adults with kids of our own within a few years of Anak...we do not belong talking on these threads at all?
My should have done better mistake to get involved...but the inconvience to what I should have done does not change the truth of the matter
And I am out of here...real work beckons
Remember, one very well respected poster, who allegedly actually sent gifts to other BBIers and was allegedly in a tailgate photo, then suddenly died and was mourned by many here - sincerely - in a Bob in Annapolis-fashion, was indeed a figment of one BBIer's imagination. A dupe.
I'm a skeptic.
Granted, I contribute to it, but ... in a more "normal" weird way.
