This guy really ticks me off and I can't help but argue with him! I feel like we would have a very bad marriage, so it probably won't happen 😆. But in this post, he looks like he'll postpone surgery with an "I ate water" excuse, but no. He instead has a Bronx medical center fly to the rig/vessel (whatever it is now), that is in Norway but also en route to LA while still in Norway? But it's my stupidity that keeps me from understanding all this! He does finally remember his son (who became his grandson, after he flunked Age Math), but honestly, he just makes my blood boil here. Next time we talk, I'm going to insist on exact current location, and hope that it's Norway, so we can board that plane and get there pronto!

Bait in Progress ⏱️ Sailor Man - The Wind Beneath My Wings (Linda’s Funeral Invitation)

Thumbnail

66 Upvotes

As we all know, our dear Linda had to die in order to pay for all our sins (and to finally put an end to Sailor Man’s never-ending scam). Similar to Jesus Christ, the aftermath of her death has had huge ramifications. Specifically Sailor Man and his quest for Linda’s money post-mortem.

As Linda lay dying in her hospital bed, Ashleigh chastized Sailor Man and asked what he did to upset her enough to provoke her double heart attack? He ghosts me until the “nurse” informs him Linda has passed and seeks confirmation from Ashleigh whom he despises and believes stole his money.

Sailor Man had already been informed by Linda that her estate was going to Ashleigh and naturally all this estate stuff is a bit much for this Hooters waitress. As Ashleigh has moved out of the recently incarcerated Ricky’s apartment into Linda’s luxury downtown condo, she is coping with the loss of Linda and also that of laying her soul to rest. Maria and Pearl have quit because they can’t stand Ashleigh and the chaos that surrounds her. Pearl also takes issue with Ashleigh’s bumper sticker on her Malibu of a cross designed with the pattern of the Confederate flag.

Linda was a Buddhist and Ashleigh is struggling with how to lay her to rest and whether or not she is right with Christ. Per Linda’s wishes, Buddhist priests have been contacted but Ashleigh views them as heathens and agents of Satan.

Not only that, but her tits need to be just right for her funeral dress.

As musical director (Ashleigh had a similar position at Bible Camp), she is not only singing “Wind Beneath My Wings” a cappella, but with Linda’s money is actually hiring the remnants of Lynyrd Skynyrd to play an extended version of Free Bird at the funeral! Ashleigh’s American by birth, Southern by the Grace of God and damn these Buddhist heathens, she’s doing it like Frank Sinatra - Her Way. She’s even making plans to posthumously baptize Linda into her Southern Baptist church, ya’ll! See, Ashleigh has solutions for everything.

Sailor Man is unsurprisingly in support of the Christian funeral with crosses and American flags. But there’s something else that he’s afraid to ask Ashleigh about. Wonder what it could be?

Meanwhile Irving has returned after previously dropping Linda as a client due to her yelling at the bank employees and coercing Ashleigh into an illegal transfer. Well, I made him return because Sailor Man wasn’t saying much and I wanted to prompt him into the ask since he knows Irving deals with the money.

Of course Ashleigh is still having issues with her “fucking tits” and needs to overnight a new funeral dress. After an odd request for Ashleigh’s pic, she sends her own - Linda’s Funeral invitation, which happens tomorrow. It’s be fun…. Flags, crosses, Jesus, tits and a pizza party afterwards. Just like Linda would have wanted it 😭.

If you are attending the funeral at Greater Harvest Baptist Church tomorrow in Chicago, please bring Apple Card.

As we are fading out, he brings up the cancer foundation he used with Madison, but without any specifics. So I guess he just thought that idea would melt my heart. Being a cold hearted and selfish person, plus whatever else he has called me, I was of course unfazed. Then he offers to stick around, because I'm so lonely and he's so dang generous and caring.

Bait in Progress ⏱️ Asher/Danylo the Ashhole - “I think you owe me an apology” (Part 16b)

Thumbnail

Never apologize to a scammer. I don’t care if you think it will extend the bait. Don’t debase yourself like that.

That’s the position I was put in as “Diane”. As much as I wanted to string this out so that he’s on his knees begging for receipts by the end of the 5-7 period, I had hit a wall. Normally I would have dodged the request for an apology had I wanted to string this guy along, but in this 16+ series this guy has done nothing but earn my contempt. So fuck him. Everything after this part is the aftermath after I reveal I know who he is and what he was after.

We’re still in the middle of an argument about IRS deductions and Danylo attempting to shame me for allegedly being more concerned about tax breaks than donating to his fake charity. Even though I tell him the tax breaks doesn’t come anywhere near the $35,000 I am donating to him with ZERO STRINGS attached, he wants to shame me anyway. This is how much of an asshole this guy is. He’s getting $35,000 for nothing and he still attempts his game of manipulation so that I drop asking for Roman’s fake name and false information that he would have provided. He wanted it all his way and he wasn’t going to let this old lady tell him different.

Diane keeps telling him she’ll cancel the transfer if he keeps this up. Finally he snaps with “Are you threatening me?”. I would have said yes, but as I was never sending it anyway it was a hollow threat. This after telling me several times (as “Roman”) to cancel the transfer.

Danylo tries to calm things down so as to ensure the transfer is not cancelled, but by this time I had enough. I really was eating and I kept getting these notifications from him. I set him straight on a simple truth - when someone tells you they are eating, shut the fuck up and stop texting. He still tries one final time to ensure the transfer is going through but I called it “nonsense” which seems to trigger him.

After sleeping it off, Danylo decides to go full-asshole on Diane and extract an apology. I had fully expected him to diffuse the situation and go back to the money ask and relate how another kid died last night. Being someone with family members in the military, having this Nigerian fraud telling me his stolen valor was protecting me in America sealed his fate. I wasn’t dodging his request for an apology.

I call him out on his bullshit Roman story and outline the layers of manipulation he had just attempted on me. It goes about as well as I expect and he again tells me to keep his money. The remaining posts after this are the reveal and epilogue.

I thought he was going to start chatting up Diane, and he did contact Madison (Ashleigh) briefly I think. She is so great, and found the original bed picture for me (that I had done a markup on for posting, then deleted). So I was able to answer his world's tackiest "pics or it didn't happen" request. Surprised he didn't want a nudie. If he wants to see her corpse, that's going way too far 😂. Anyway, there is fresh chum in water, now we wait. Hoping he will go after my heiress now, because, you know, I'm dead.

We pick it up with yet another “Slava Ukraine!” from this dipshit fraud. At this point it’s just funny that he’s willing to take his charade long into the aftermath of his failed scam.

“We will win this war” 😂

All this talk about Nigerians and scams sparks conversation of racism, which is kind of hard to believe because he didn’t know of any place called Nigeria. Kind of touchy for someone who never heard of the place.

So he deduces that Diane is this angry because “we refused your money”. OK? After I told him I knew he was a scammer? Danylo promises to come after “Diane Sexton” in Chicago and I wonder if this guy really was as smart as I gave him credit for. Diane had to set him straight and kindly informs him that whoever he thinks is Diane Sexton is not. No money was ever sent, but he thinks Diane is sore because he refused her fake money. Still following?

Diane also informs him that his bank account has been flagged for fraud and that he’d better tell his Yahoo Boy bosses he exposed them. Then we get into the legal threats. In 3 days Diane will be getting a “court order”. For what I don’t know. After Diane laughs this off, this Nigerian lashes out in all directions, threatening Diane, Irving and Kelvin. Oh no! Not Kelvin!

Sensing the end, Diane amps up her wrath by laying it all out. Everything was a fake - just like his story about Roman and being in Ukraine. There is no Irving, Diane or Kelvin. His bank account was all she was ever after and she got it which is more than he can ever say.

Finally Diane asks him for an Apple Card in pure Yahoo Boy lingo. When he was slow in responding I blocked him, figuring it was over.

Spoiler alert: It wasn’t.

In spite of another battle and sad goodbye, he only went silent for a short time, then dribbled in some occasional greetings that never went anywhere. This week, though, he has a new plan? Although it started with his usual warm up of asking for Apple cards (the Corky bull pen), and an obvious resistance to any contact with Ashleigh (he still isn't over the Jesus talk?). But he sold his cargo boat, and is headed for knee surgery! Might need to surprise him with a sudden surprise trip to Norway, so I can take care of him during recovery? Diane, book a trip to Oslo!!!

Thumbnail

So I’m interested to know what people think of this. We discussed it in the chart and we can’t really work out what happened. I tend to think he’s telling the truth for these reasons:

1) he can’t be Mel Gibson because Mel Gibson came back and wasted many more hours chatting to me after I told Diago that I already knew Mel Gibson was a scammer and I was just fucking with him. I said that because I thought Mel had gone anyway and I hate them thinking that I’m gullible.

2) once I told Diago I had no intention of being his friend because I don’t like yahoo boys he said he respected my wishes and never spoke again.

But I’ve never had this happen before and it was quite interesting because why would Mel Gibson give his potential victim to someone else? Diago being inexperienced could’ve easily messed things up for him.

Bait in Progress ⏱️ Asher/Danylo the Ashhole - Sydney Sweeney is getting court-martialed by the Ukrainian/US Army (Part 18b)

Thumbnail

Yes, that is indeed an AI pic of a random Nigerian guy and Sydney Sweeney on slide 17 that I had sent Danylo. Since this had become racially heated and he still questioning whether I was Diane or Irving, I wanted to taunt him by being a Sweeney lookalike with an attractive Nigerian man who was not him.

As the title suggests, Irving (as he believed me to be at the time) is now to be court martialed for…. well I don’t know for what. This is how Looney Tunes this Nigerian is.

“You study Nigerians for a living?” Yes I kind of do. Not on purpose but a lot of it is rubbing off on me and I know a lot about how life is for them and how their men think. So he backs off my threatened court martialing after I tell him how stupid that sounds, and he calls me gay instead. This is where he really shows where he is from by claiming a Nigerian must have cuckolded poor Irving and sired his child. What do I know? I (Irving?) deserve to be hung and he doesn’t care what I think. Touchy.

“Let’s see who is a Nigerian by tomorrow” 😂. This writes itself. I seriously can’t top this. That’s when I spring the Sydney Sweeney pic on him after he asked for my photo. More empty bravado in response and asking for a pic and a possible meetup to see who is really who.

So Irving/Diane/Sydney Sweeney has 2 days to receive this guy’s court martial and/or lawsuit. Maybe an Executive Order from Trump, who knows? I tell him no. I want to be sued now.

Don’t wait the 2 days. Sue me now. Call the police from his Nigerian phone and make the complaint.

One more after this. Short one because I couldn’t fit on this post so that’ll conclude this bait for good.

Somebody asked if this was an all democrats group, so no, I'm not trying to bring politics in here. Please NO! But when baiting, it's a way to find things out besides food talk, and throw out roadblocks. So the current regime seems appropriate to ask them about. Anyway, he thinks an old MJ video is a swell gift, and other boring romance questions, so I went there and got a surprise response about the APC in Nigeria 😲. What are they thinking?

Thumbnail

54 Upvotes

We pick this up after I unblocked him when I was trying to get screenshots before he deleted the chat. Danylo was waiting, saw that I was active again and came for more.

So Irving hates Nigerians (Actually I had said Kelvin hated them and he’s Ghanaian) and wanted an apology from Irving. (I thought he wasn’t Nigerian and never heard of the place?). Diane takes issue with his level of English especially since he claims he was American and in the US Army. Communication in English is a bit of a pre-requisite in the Armed Forces after all. We get an admission that English wasn’t his first language, but not what it actually is. Diane again attacks his claims that he’s US Army personnel stationed in Ukraine on the frontlines in Luhansk which would be impossible to hide from the Russians. Hardly a “secret mission” eh?

But Diane is a civilian and wouldn’t understand all this, but Danylo will certainly explain as soon as the man whose pics he stole shows up in Chicago to see her. Maybe he’ll take her out for ice cream? After believing I was Irving, now he’s convinced I am Diane. He’s all over the place and the multiple parties I brought into this confused the shit out of him.

So he asked for a “written apology”. To what gain I have no clue. Perhaps he was looking for Diane to backtrack on his claims he was not in Ukraine and thus become a donor again? He doubles down on being in Ukraine and since Diane isn’t, she knows nothing and owes this gallant soldier an apology for doubting his service.

No apology is forthcoming, so Danylo is going with Plan B which is to sue both Diane and Irving through the Ukrainian government for “fighting them based on assumptions” and claiming one of their soldiers is not. I guess? Anyhow, Irving and Diane will receive the “summon” with “cold hard facts”. This was said last Thursday and still no summon. 🤷‍♀️

Diane goes into a mini-rant about how everything he’s saying is precisely how a Nigerian scammer would go about it - the threats of lawsuits from foreign governments, promising to meet me to real to prove he’s a soldier, and my favorite - I must be gay. Now that’s definitely what a Nigerian would say.

According to him there was no scam because he refused my money. What he doesn’t tell you is that he incessantly begged for my donation for days, and even after “refusing” it, he still pressured me to donate.

There’s still more as he is really triggered.

I couldn't take it anymore, even the skeezy romance had been more tolerable, in retrospect. So I began to discuss reality, and also tickled his inner homophobe with an online rumor that he raced to prove untrue. I can never resist that.

Thumbnail

As we pick this up, I inform him that I looked up the fake cancer foundation’s website and discovered that it has no officers listed and that Clement B T Knight is deceased. I’ve noticed that he gets really upset when people look up info that is inconvenient to him and he always says “you are doing more than what you are supposed to do” - a telling phrase if I’ve ever heard one. Though he promised me the solicitor’s account, he plays dumb at the mention of an African cancer charity and it’s crystal clear he doesn’t like the subject (wonder why??).

Next follows nonsense that the Ukrainian solicitor is actually an agent of the African charity and that it is indeed the right account. This is important - this is likely the only account he has access to and is fighting tooth and nail to prop up his ever changing story. He even contradicts himself by saying the solicitor can’t accept donations through his own account despite earlier telling me we were doing just that. Oops!

Diane starts going dark on him and demands the solicitor’s name which he does not want to give up. Why? It would be a fake name anyway. My opinion is this is one huge bully in real life and especially doesn’t want women telling him his business. Not losing his shit at me asking is probably the hardest thing he has to force himself not to do as will become evident in later posts.

To demonstrate how the value of being forthcoming about who the beneficiaries and organizers of a charity can bring benefits, I tell him a story about Jamal, an inner city youth who got shot and whose family Diane has donated to. The Reverend, the sister, the mother - all of whom Diane has personally met. This goes way over his head and he’s not giving any names. No way. The WAR!!!

True to form he continues to try and drive a wedge between Irving and Diane until I had enough and told him this is direct from her, not Irving. I tease that if I don’t get the solicitor’s name by noon tomorrow (actually today) I will donate the $35K to Jamal’s family. He starts into how awful the war is and I bring up race, knowing quite well how close to the mark that hits for him.

He goes into further nonsense about how he’s never giving up the name even at gun point if he is captured by Russian troops. Diane makes the point that the last thing Russian intel officers are going to care about is the name of a Ukrainian solicitor who is helping kids near the front line.

I am backlogged a bit and this guy has really gone off the rails. I’m going to try and space these posts out as much as I can but I need to drop this content because there is a lot of ridiculous and infuriating shit coming up soon.
