"I am an alcoholic, co-dependent, ACOA, over-eater, sexual and relationship anorexic and addict, yet I no longer participate in those soul-murdering activities"

The biggest self-dramatizer in history.

No question. I think he really is an addict, and made up the stories of abuse to justify his continued use of alcohol for 40 years or whatever it was.. Then he got dry, but was still basically just a child both intellectually and emotionally - it's quite obvious from his behaviour and postings here.. That, coupled with some severe narcissism and too much enabling from a few key players here is what really led to his meltdown. He actually thought he was one of the gang for a while - probably for the first time in his life. Hell, some broad even *slept* with him, apparently. shudder It's actually really interesting to read, from a purely clinical perspective.

His first post here, early in 1995, were quite friendly and pleasant, and even modest in tone. But a few months later, he began to adopt his "Two Buddha" persona and name, and talk about himself in the 3rd person. From there, his assholicism just got worse and worse.

You can almost pinpoint the date - it was when klaus said something along the lines of "this man knows his local skiing" or something like that. Instant man-crush. (Probably romantic crush, in retrospect.)
All downhill from there.

Then there was that flamewar with Dale Bish, right?
