Well...Now I must go see what the fuss is about.
I am not nosey.
I'm just curious because I know the guy in the picture

Small world syndrome at play perhaps.
I'm sure, but that guy in the picture is definitely not adamg  
Greg from LI : 9/22/2021 8:37 am : link
I grew up with him. He's a huge Redskins fan and hates the Giants.
Cool

That's interesting. How is your Dad doing?
Better

He can play golf again, which was his main concern. He had been a bit concerned when his pulmonologist told him he wasn't going to be able to get his knee replacement done on schedule in November, but his orthopedist said there shouldn't be any problem with that.

Every once in a great while I think of someone other than me. Anyway, good to hear. It will be interesting to see what Adam has to say, not that it is my business lol.
That's interesting

Holy shit. I saw this picture somewhere and it looked like such a generic well off white guy I thought it'd be a funny profile picture. Sort of an inside joke for myself. Really weird that people know this dude. I have no idea who he is. Some local political figure somewhere if my memory serves.

It's awesome that he's a redskins fan too

Hmmmm. Not sure I’m buying your story, lol. You picked some random normal looking white dude as your profile pic? Something isn’t adding up

I never claimed to be normal. It's funny to me. Even more funny now.

This has the makings of a classic BBI thread.

Why is Greg looking at Adam’s profile?
Why does Adam have a picture of a former Virginia delegate in his profile?
What is the former delegate hiding behind that smile and half zip?
Why am I Google image searching?

Not only does Greg randomly decide to look at another random BBIers profile pic, but when he does it’s a guy he grew up with? What are the chances? This entire thing is freakin bizarre.
 
christian : 9/22/2021 10:39 pm : link
Equally bizarre is why have Greg’s profile images gone missing?
heh  
Greg from LI : 9/22/2021 11:26 pm : link
I was on adam's thread and accidentally clicked on his name - touchpad is very sensitive. The picture loaded and I was like "Wait, is that a picture of Chris???" It was just so weird and out of nowhere.

Yes, he is a former member of the Virginia House of Delegates. He and I went to middle and high school together. We were close friends back then - he lived with his mom and she was a judge and always busy, so in high school I used to crash drunk at his house rather than having to go home and face my parents - but let's just say we had our differences after that. Not for political reasons, just in general, and in particular one personal conflict. Saw him at our 25th reunion a few years ago but that was the first time I had seen him in quite some time.

His wife, who is in the picture with him, I remember meeting her when they were first dating in college. It must have been fall break or something because he was having a Monday Night Football party at his house. I was on some medication I wasn't supposed to drink while taking, and of course I did anyway and got severely fucked up. We had been outside to smoke a bowl, and I just kind of collapsed in his driveway. I was basically catatonic. I couldn't move or say anything intelligible but could hear or see everything. He and his dickhead friends from HSC left me there and went back in the house until she ripped them a new one and made them carry me in. So I have nothing bad to say about her other than she married an asshole.
Damn dude. What an asshole.  
adamg : 9/22/2021 11:29 pm : link
Sorry to bring up bad memories. Do you want me to get rid of him from my profile?
and I haven't even looked at my own profile pics in forever  
Greg from LI : 9/22/2021 11:29 pm : link
From a long dead account, so they're gone. I don't remember what they were. They were probably from 15 or so years ago so I'll bet I looked a helluva lot better in them than I do now.
Nah  
Greg from LI : 9/22/2021 11:31 pm : link
Generic white guy is an excellent description, and this was all so long ago that they're kind of funny now. We were cordial at the reunion.

It's just a bizarre coincidence that you happened to find that photo.
A new layer to BBI lore  
adamg : 9/22/2021 11:33 pm : link
That's unbelievable. lol
Wait, I remember what one of my pics was  
Greg from LI : 9/22/2021 11:53 pm : link
Put it back up - it was me wearing my Bavaro jersey, my baby boy wearing his Giants onesie, and my little fuzzball dachshund. How time flies - my son is now 13 and little fuzz crossed the rainbow bridge back in April at the ripe old age of 14.

I was completely kidding Greg. I’m right there with you man, 15 years ago I looked like a kid. Now I look like the movie version of that dude wearing old guy make up.
Lol when adam was reading me I did not know  
NoGainDayne : 9/23/2021 4:37 am : link
it wasn’t him and I was like I can’t believe this generic white guy is psychoanalyzing me
Funny story  
dune69 : 9/23/2021 5:02 am : link
Although:

Generic white guy?

Coincidence that Adam's profile picture is Greg's old high school buddy? (Gibbs says there's no such thing as coincidence)

Catatonic Greg? (Reminds ne of high school)

Must Agree with BBS; this may need further investigation.

No offense but I think we all could easily come to that conclusion just by the fact you picked someone else’s random photo off the internet to use as YOUR profile pic. Obviously some self confidence issues going on but you’ve come to the right place. Sit down in the chair and let the fine psychologists of BBI work on you for awhile
