    Has anyone actually ever seen a real post from Highway Star?

    I swear to god, I have never seen an original Highway Star post. Dozens and dozens of quotes, but nothing real!

    Is there a vast conspiracy against me? I am worried that everyone is laughing at me.

    There used to be a bazillion of them - all variations of the same thing. And then he went on a deleting spree.

    I've seen a few (even two at a time!), but I think you need to check the board like 20 times per day to catch them.

    This doesn't speak highly of how I spend my time at work.

    umm, maybe its better that you haven't seen one...

    I pretty much made it my job to quote everything he posted for a few weeks.

    Then I realized what a dork I was being.

    I feel very fortunate to have been around to witness the meltdown that was Highway Star.

    The quotes are all that is left. He was erasing all his post's one night so I quoted as many as I could, just to save them for posterity sake. Some of them were just too good to let them slip into the either

    Everyone is definitely laughing at you ( ) but HS used to post all the time, and actually was what might be considered a "normal" poster until he got off the meds.

    I skied with him at Sugarbush one day. We ended up wandering around in Slide Brook for 3-4 hours longer than expected. He's a real solid skier and a decent guy in person who just doesn't give an F about being polite or civil on forums like this. I think I started calling him an Internet misanthrope.

    I actually met him in real life too and concur that he was a-okay!
