HEY HEY VACAY … 

|| By FITSNEWS || Posting will be a bit light over the next two weeks as our founding editor and his family travel to Pawleys Island, S.C. for summer vacation.

In years past we would completely shut down the website during these family getaways but … despite our best efforts to NOT expand our readership … things have evolved a bit since then.  Meaning it’s become impossible to completely unplug.

In fact last year we broke a little news as our founding editor Will Folks‘ family was vacationing just down the beach from an oceanfront inn which sustained a deck collapse – sending nearly a dozen people to a nearby hospital.

We covered that incident – and the 2014 primary elections and a cabinet resignation – from our oceanfront abode.

Not only that, Folks was interviewed and photographed by the local mainstream media during his stay on the island (although the failed to capture his legendary bodysurfing skills in action).

Anyway … even though “Sic Willie” will be away from home, we’ll still be in the loop … meaning readers should continue to reach out to us with story ideas via our tip line or via email.

And yes, we’ll be littering Sic’s Twitter and Facebook feeds with pics of his adorable (and growing) family …

‘deadbeat’

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:47 pm

Who is the deadbeat? Hey – I have a life, but the minute I post on here, you come out of hiding. I know you are likely one of the very people I think are friends. Politics is ugly. You might get used to me, because I’m going to be here for a while.

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:25 pm

Happy Sunday! You are usu nicer on Sunday, but guess the service wasn’t all that great? Damn, must have made you feel bad to know all your sins.

The Buzzman June 7, 2015 at 7:25 pm

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:26 pm

He can’t get over the fact we are not one and the same. Asshat he is! LOL

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:26 pm

I bet he does look at all my links even though he says he don’t ;)

The Buzzman June 7, 2015 at 7:28 pm

The more shit he says the more he reveals himself. GT got smart and left. pogo will keep at it until they come to take him away.

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:30 pm

I think they are one and the same. I have seen GT style come back after pogo/flip posts. They won’t go away, don’t blame them, we continue to entertain them.

The Buzzman June 8, 2015 at 12:45 am

Too complicated to explain why in less than two yards of text, but I’m positive they are two distinctly separate deranged individuals.

Boz I am out of here.Best wishes.Will be in Myrtle Beach most of July working/family if there is something else you need to get off your chest, face to face.

Your Ass, Your Face... June 8, 2015 at 9:34 am

What’s the difference?

SYNTwist June 8, 2015 at 9:23 am

You know that better than I do, but they sure seem to be using the same playbook. What is it with his threats to you? Face to face?

The Buzzman June 8, 2015 at 9:46 am

He did that before, years ago on The SNOB. That was a fairly common thing on there. It was a boisterous forum, much like comments on here. Even one of the “prominent businessmen” — who he now kisses up to on here, but who reviled him (and vice-versa) on that forum — threatened to either beat me up or kill me and others. Sometimes he’s say he wanted to just meet, though, and talk things out. That would be directed at either me or the others. He’d always find some excuse not to do that, though.

SYNTwist June 8, 2015 at 10:24 am

It is against the law to threaten to kill someone, even on social media. Last time someone threatened to kill me, I was using my real name, real location, I told them to bring it on. Come to find out this was truly a crazy person with a criminal record. Someone found him and his record and posted it in the forum.

Also, remember the lady who recently posted death threats on social media? She posted under a fake alias, but within a day she was arrested. Hope you saved some of those comments in case he decides to try to carry them out. He doesn’t seem to be a very stable person.

pogo's last hurrah June 8, 2015 at 11:18 am

No threats directed toward you.Best wishes.Fed agent attempts SYNTwists’ to turn my ‘face to face’ comment into a threat is false.By ya a beer or dinner anytime.

No fun on here anymore for Christian conservative.Rogue only ONE left and he is not on much.

pogo's 2nd hurrah June 8, 2015 at 11:20 am

‘Fed agent SYNTwists attempts’ (should read).
Best too all.

SYNTwist June 8, 2015 at 11:33 am

Keep typing. You know it was a threat that you are attempting to back out of now. Scared Pogo?

pogo June 8, 2015 at 11:53 am

My attorney told me to stop communicating with you. See ya.

SYNTwist June 8, 2015 at 11:54 am

Wise advice.

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 7:33 pm

I think they are the same. There was one post I addressed pogo/flip typing and it was obvious I was talking to GT next comment. GT isn’t gone. They are the same.

flip June 8, 2015 at 8:14 am

I am finished contributing on FitsNews. Not because of a apparently fed ‘narc’/deadbeat mom like you-it just ain’t no fun reading a site anymore in which 90% of the comments are about hating America and mocking the Christian faith.I have turned MANY people onto this site in the past year from different parts of the country.

I am NOT Grand Tango-you know that.He was brilliant and helped balance the socialist and Christ hating tilt you,Boz and other American bashing deviants project on Fits.Boz was BANNED (I have posted his own words) from the Sun News Opinion Blog and was the reason the Sun News shut that blog down. I see the similarities between the two of you-there are many. :)
Best wishes to you.

Please Leave June 8, 2015 at 9:33 am

No one will miss you. Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.

The Buzzman June 8, 2015 at 9:41 am

He used to pull this shit on the old Sun New Opinion Blog (SNOB). Periodically he would declare that he was leaving forever. He never did. He’d just come up with a whole new group of names. Unmistakable style and mode of attack, though. Total malevolent troll.

pogo June 7, 2015 at 7:56 pm

LMAO!!!You threatening me Boz? REALLY? HA HA HA HA!!!!!!

SYNTwist June 7, 2015 at 9:52 pm

Are you paranoid Pogo? Afraid that someone is threatening you? I’m the big bad boogie man, who narcs, remember me? No, that isn’t a threat, just a reminder of YOUR words.

The Buzzman June 8, 2015 at 12:41 am

LMAO LMAO LMAO LMAO

flip/pogo June 7, 2015 at 8:27 pm

‘GT got smart and left’? You and SNTwist threatening me? Why?
I have posted only on political issues with s/n ‘flip’ tonight.What brought these attacks and threats forward?
SYNTwist I wish you NO hard feelings or harm-whoever you are.
You got ‘contributor’ Grand Tango. Why after me? Why threaten me? My Christian faith? My bi-racial grandchildren?

I will NOT contribute on FitsNews AGAIN. I feel for the safety of my life and the safety of my family.

Speaking of mainstream media

A friend was visiting his daughter at North Litchfield Beach last weekend when he asked her if he could borrow a newspaper

“This is the 21st century Dad” she replied, “We don’t waste money on newspapers. Here, use my iPad.

By all accounts of those who were in the room… that damn fly never knew what hit him…

A stock boy is stacking fruit on a display, when a lady asks “Do you have any potatoes?” The stock boy replies “Sorry ma’am, we are out of potatoes, but we will be getting a shipment tomorrow morning”

The lady looks around some more. A few minutes later she runs back to him asking where the potatoes are. The stock boy confused about her mental state simply tells her “Sorry ma’am, we are out of potatoes, but we will be getting a shipment tomorrow morning”

The lady looks around some more then goes back to the same stock boy and asks “Where the hell do you keep the potatoes, I need some potatoes right now!”

The stock boy, getting frustrated with his inability to explain the situation, tells the lady “Answer a couple of questions and I will get you your potatoes from the back.”

The lady agrees and the boy starts the questions. “Spell cat for me, as in catastrophe “she says ok, “C A T”. “Very good!” the stock boy says, “now spell dog, as in dogmatic.” The lady getting frustrated spells it correct.

Now the employee finally asks “now spell, fuck, as in potatoes.”
She replies “There is no fuck in potatoes.”

To which the stock boy replies “THAT’S WHAT I’VE BEEN TRYING TO TELL YOU THE WHOLE TIME!”

Have a good time and enjoy your time with your family but there are better beaches to go to then the beaches in South Carolina. They pale in comparison to the beaches in Florida or the Outer Banks of North Carolina
But then again, if you are a native to this state it must be an inbred thing……..

So what happened to Grand Tango? Banned or not banned? All of this intrigue. I remember Grand Tango from the gogamecocks political forum, he went by Saluda Rapids then. People over there claimed he worked for some pay day loan lender in an urban area of Columbia. You could never be conservative enough for him, I remember that. And if you ever agreed with a Dem or a Liberal on anything, he’d go apeshit crazy and accuse you of not engaging in rhetorical warfare sufficiently, with the deviants as he referred to them. He claimed to know names and professions of other members, and some claimed to know who and where he was. I never have understood how members of an anonymous forum could learn those kinds of details unless you offered it up. Anyway, just curious – I did not know that Will would ban someone from his forums, seems he liked the hit counts those posts generated.

Doubt if GT has been banned

It would take something major like GT breaking into willie’s house, stealing his favorite pair of stilettos and wearing them to a tractor pull over in Pelion to get banned

Posters come and posters go – don’t recall seeing much of SCBlues or the Confederate General and then there was the “ballsack dude from India” who hasn’t been around in a long time

Also Corruption Columbia is either TOP(tired of posting) or DCP(dead, can’t post)

Maybe while willie is on the beach tanning his Johnson he could list some of the posters who are MFP(missing from posting)

Who remembers the Rise and Fall of Silk Road? Just saw this today, Part I and II.

“In a way, Silk Road was the logical extension of the libertarian view that animates much of the Internet (not to mention the rising political tide in Washington). It was Silicon Valley in extremis, a disruptive technology wrapped in political rhetoric. DPR was its philosopher-king, envisioning a post-state digital economy, with Silk Road as the first step toward a libertarian paradise. Not only was Silk Road a slap in the face to law enforcement, it was a direct challenge, as DPR wrote, to the very structure of power.”
