I thought I knew a lot of celebs but never heard of these two either. Of course, celeb has been watered down lately.

I can’t afford a wife, if I need one I have to barrow someone else’s.

No marriage should end like that. Some marriages begin like that, but no marriage should end like that :)

It's Buddy Fletcher, not Buddy Hackett. gnuk gnuk gnuk

She’s a “diversity and inclusion” zealot, also. They deserve each other.

".... The article is worth reading in its entirety, in a cautionary kind of way...."

There is no way this article is worth reading at all, let alone in its entirety, except to shallow celebrity watchers and the wannabe famous phonies.

And as far as the "cautionary kind of way", these two losers need to read my story, not the other way around.

Age 72, happily married to the same woman for 45 years and we didn't get there rubbing elbows with New York elite liberals. Hard work, responsibility, respect and loyalty. And love. Which sounds like what these two lacked.

There is nothing so uninteresting as the fall of some stuck-up liberals in the most sanctimoniest city in the country.

Thanks for the post but no thanks. I'm not buying.

An interesting fact not mentioned in the article is that Buddy Fletcher “was” gay.

https://fortune.com/2012/10/25/ellen-pao-buddy-fletcher/

Oriental woman have facial features that are, in my estimation, generally the most feminine looking of all ethnicities. Relative to her co-ethnics of the same gender, however, Pao face looks remarkably masculine. That may explain why Fletcher ended up with her.

You’re obviously a man of high moral character, such that the word schadenfreude is not part of your vocabulary.

I know the word and it is appropriate for these two liberal losers' tale.

But I have never heard or used the word in real life outside of the internet. As a cattle farmer in rural Florida, the word just never comes up. :-)

I never claimed to have a high moral character. I'm just don't have a publicity- seeking life of a loser who's private affairs are spread all over the media like it's newsworthy.

an ostensibly intelligent woman like Ellen Pao latched on to an affirmative action huckster like Buddy Fletcher

Huh? Pao is an affirmative action huckster in her own right, after suing Kleiner Perkins in 2012 for gender discrimination and losing. She was also forced out of Reddit for her SJW activities.

“What surprises here is that an ostensibly intelligent woman like Ellen Pao latched on to an affirmative action huckster like Buddy Fletcher.”

She is an extremely sick and angry woman, so I doubt she even realized that he was affirmative action, until it was too late.

Mine certainly did, decades ago, we were at it big-time. But now much, much, better!

What’s hardest to get my hands around is how one with so much money $150M would not spread some of it around, at least to his family, for a rainy day, as in now. That would be legal and if done reasonably early, couldn’t be touched by the courts.

But I guess he either didn’t do that, or no one he gave his money to thinks he’s worth giving it back.

I appreciate it.

I have started to read your profile page and there’s a lot of great stuff about food and health.

I DONT KNOW how I don’t have diabetes. My fasting glucose was 85. (I think that’s in a safe range)

At one point after my head injury, after YEARS of being home and just stuffing fast food down, i got to 435 pounds!!!!!!!! from 240 before injury.

I’ve battled down to the high 200s and the fight continues.

HOW, by the Grace of God, did I not get diabetes?

Maybe it was by the Grace of God.

Thanks, that’s AMAZING how you lost the weight (and damn, I didn’t know you were THAT HIGH, weight wise). I do remember your posts on some of the fasting/Keto threads, and they’re great to read, and I still fully trust the testimonials here, because the people on THIS SITE didn’t come to shill Keto, Atkins, or anything else - they are, like me, here to (rightly) bitch at the Left...this stuff is just on the side.

Anyway, care to join my little Keto ping list?
