Does he really have AIDS or was it a scam?

Congrats Tbombz!!! Wishing him the best!

Well he certainly has a real degree now, contrary to Goodrum.

Not really. The school Goodrum attended is an online University.
The school Tbombz attended is also an online university.

Well I take back my words if that's so. For a second I thought that tBumz got his shit together.

AIDS ridden fags shouldn't be able to posess college degrees, not like the disgusting piece of shit is going to able to get a job even if he wanted to. Lazy dirty repulsive vile sack of shit excuse for a human being.
-
Congratulation, tbombz.
It must be a very ingratiating feeling to receive the diploma after all the hard effort.
-
BayGBM is a professor somewhere. If tbombz was his student, then I am sure professor Bay requested a dance in a bunny suit to give him an A+
-
Figures. They'll probably play Rump and Circumcision during the graduation march (AKA, Land of Glory Holes).
Tbombz will wear his bunny suit to graduation. ;D ;D

I can almost bet you a very large amount of money it's not a real degree. I can also build a website, grab a few papers off Wikipedia for you to memorize (and then copy from) and give you a degree in a few months time. The whole 'university' sits on a server somewhere with a few crooks running it. This is what failures like Goodrum thrive on, and more than likely the aids ridden bunny too.

Mods:
Please move this thread to the "Who Gives a Fuck" board.
Thanks in advance.

Congratulations TBombz.

I'm sure he will get a great job and do well in his chosen field ::)

Well, can you at the very least, tell us how you really feel about him?

when i googled his name, nothing came up. A few pictures only come up when you also put in the word "getbig."

Tay Tay is the type that will brag when he (finally) gets a job. And we'll be there for him, ready for an arsenal of pics, straight to the HR department. Good times ahead :D
-

Yeah, he's blessed with a common first and surname, mostly women come up, even his "name and bodybuilding" is safe. Only if you use "Getbig" as a search query does anything untoward come up.
Wish him luck.

Congrats Tbombz
-

Yup. Nuff' said. I'm not gonna read the rest of what surely will have been posted.
Good job brother.

Do you not realize what a pathetic fagggott you sound like? What fucking man would email another mans HR to try and cause issues and then giggle like a fucking bitch?? I don't know who the tbomb dude is but honestly I couldn't give a shit if he was a tool or not.. I just certainly wouldn't make myself look like a fucking pussy by posting shit I stalked him to find??? Do you fucking losers have careers?

People are not required to divulge that they have HIV when applying for jobs or in any other situation.
Question, what did he ever do to you to make you so hateful towards him?

Jesus saves.

That's twatfull, if I were an employer the last thing I'd want is a fag with aids hanging around my workplace, leaving hiv infested blood, saliva and sweat all over the place, plus constantly having to pay him sick pay while his off work with his aids problems.
As for what he's done he made me feel levels of disgust I have never felt before in my life, I don't hate him, I just think he is fucking vile

HIV is a blood born pathogen. HIV can be transmitted by blood, genital secretions and breast milk. Bodily fluids associated with waste, like urine, feces, sweat and tears don't have CD4 cells. Neither does saliva. These bodily fluids can't transmit HIV.
Looks like you'd have to become blood brothers or suck his cock with an open sore in your mouth or if it's a she, you might catch it when sucking her tits if she produces milk and again you have an open sore in your mouth.
As for the sick leave argument, well it seems it doesn't hold water based on this study. In NAT’s study, 70% of the HIV-positive men had taken no HIV-related sickness days at all in the last 12 months. Overall, men with HIV had similar numbers of sick days to HIV-negative men in the survey.
Luckily for you, you're allowed to think he is vile if you so choose.

Despite your well thought out reply backed up by studies and facts, I still choose to believe that the dirty bastard will leave traces of aids all over the workplace and never be at work due to aids fag sickness

Apparently Tay Tay wants to be a pastor now. I believe him and MOS is having a praying marathon for each other as God had a quick chat with Tbomz and told him MOS should be a pastor too.
It's a confusing mess really. But he'll be outed wherever he goes :-X

Matthew 5:11-12
11 God blesses you when people mock you and persecute you and lie about you and say all sorts of evil things against you because you are my followers.
12 Be happy about it! Be very glad! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted in the same way.
Matthew 5:44
44 But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!
And I do pray for those that persecute me. ;) I even care for you nzm.
Trust me, I've known for a very, very long time that this is the case.
For me it's awesome that folks perceive me as such....they recognize Christ Jesus in me....praise God for that!

Prayer marathon? Ok. I told him I'd pray for him.....guess that counts as a prayer marathon. He said he's going to pursue his Master of Divinity degree and I mentioned that I've considered pursuing that same thing.
Yes, he would like to become a pastor, but I told him I've never felt lead to pastor. He told me that he felt like I'm suited for evangelism and apologetics.
That's the gist of it. Two believers are gonna pray for each other......shocking!!

17 Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

Good stuff. Slowly wheeling his ship into the wind. Hope more good follows.

Why would anyone feel compelled to update Getbig on this idiot's waste of a life?
Who fucking cares what Aidsbomb is doing? It's pretty fucking obvious he will do anything and everything possible to avoid getting a fucking job.

Why are so many so against tbombz changing his life for the better? I don't get it.
Yes, I think some are here just to troll and get a laugh, but others are just evil in their comments.
A man made a big mistake. A man then changed his life in positive, dramatic ways.
The cockroaches of this board want him to continue to scurry with them into the darkness when the light pops on. Other demons folks on here want to reason away the change in him or claim he deserves nothing of goodness for the rest of his days because he made a mistake.
I got news for many of you.....your post histories read like a rap sheet or a set of instructions on "what not to do with your life"......pot meet kettle.
Why is that? Why do so many of you prefer the darkness and the bunny suit? Is it as simple as it makes you feel better about the darkness in your own life by comparison? Now that the comparison is gone you rehash it again to somehow keep it relevant?
FYI ~ I could care less if you insult my faith LOL.....that's par for the course in my board existence.....glory to God each time it happens. :)
Tbombz had an encounter with Christ and it changed him completely and brought light into his life. Why aren't you asking him about that? My guess is that most of you prefer the darkness and are offended by the light. I once preferred the darkness to, but that darkness almost became permanent blackness until Christ rescued me from death....changed me completely. Change tbombz completely.
"Yeah, but he only found God because he was in such a terrible place in his life. That's what people like him do when they're down and out....they 'find God' ::) !"
EXACTLY LOL!! :)

That is your choice. Unfortunately for you, you may never know that the person you hire or are working next to has HIV unless they decide to tell you. Considering your attitude about it, them confessing isn't likely. Also, it is illegal to not hire or fire someone because they are HIV positive. This disease qualifies as a disability under ADA standards.

This love thy neighbor stuff is absolute bullshit. Humans aren't hardwired like that! Humans have such a powerful self preservation instinct that over-rides pretty much everything. And those who persecute us represent a threat to our survival, so human instinct is to NOT LOVE them, to be wary of them and if possible to annihilate them. This is why I am suspicious of people who try and love thy enemy, they have to do some pretty deceptive and creative psychological back-flips to create such an illusion. Such people are deceiving themselves, and are not to be trusted as they are out of touch with how they truly think and feel.

How come when a secularist espouses his ideas and beliefs it's education but when a theist expresses their beliefs it's brain washing?
-

Because the theist made the claim first of a divine god without proof. The secularist merely educate on the need for proof before claiming something to be true. Otherwise I can believe in gorillas flying on the backs of scorpions that created the dinosaurs as my 'truth' without offering proof.
-

Because one is based on reality and the other fantasy. So one is based on honesty and the other deceit, which is ironic considering religions encouraging it's followers to be honest, so technically you can't be honest and a theist. The only way to believe in obvious fantasy is to lie to yourself.

Who fucking cares what Aidsbomb is doing? It's pretty fucking obvious he will do anything and everything possible to avoid getting a fucking job.
I care. Many of us has witnessed Tbombz literally grow up on this board. From that chubby little kid on the motor bike to all the phases -- the tribulations of life, he has gone through. Like so many in his generation he so often seem just so lost and confused.
I've had many discussions and debates with him over the years and there have been times that I truly despised him and other times where I felt sorry for him and his parents. I really wish him well. He's not just some stranger for many of us that have been on this board for over a decade. And I do care what happens to him.
I remember so many of posts when he was just a kid. He was a good kid.
They grow up so fast.
.
He's not just some stranger to me and despite it all
-

In before MOS copy and pastes 300 quotes from the bible to prove God is real. :D :D

I'm sorry friend but I believe you are mistaken. Religion is based on faith. Faith by definition is believing in something without proof. It is not a matter of faith that I believe the chair I'm sitting on will hold me up. I cannot prove that a God created the universe. You cannot prove that it just suddenly appeared out of nothing.
There is evidence that one can claim supports their beliefs but in the end it's still just a belief. A leap of faith.
Your gorilla analogy reminded me of Beratrand Russell who was a literary mentor of mine back in my agnostic years. He said that he cannot prove that a China tea pot is revolving around the sun between Mars and Jupiter. He considered the existence of God to be just as likely.

I'm not sure what you mean? What is the reality and what is the fantasy? Is the fantasy that there was a creator to all that we see and experience around us or is the fantasy that it all just exploded from nothing?

Faith by definition is the domain of the irrational simple minded fool, hence the reason we can fool children into believing in a fat jolly bearded man who lives at the North Pole getting ready to deliver toys to all the children once a year. The children have faith in the adults who for whatever reason never developed the moral fortitude to be honest to innocent children (probably because they were deceived by those they trusted and now carry on the tradition thinking it is OK).
Now, just because the children have faith, does that make what they believe in true or rational, I mean I can't prove Santa doesn't exist right. If as an adult I still claimed there was a Santa Claus I would be locked up in a mental asylum, but if millions of adults made the same claim it would be considered normal. What a fucked up world we live in.

I'm not sure what you mean? What is the reality and what is the fantasy? Is the fantasy that there was a creator to all that we see and experience around us or is the fantasy that it all just exploded from nothing?
I can see why you struggle with such concepts. To clarify, one idea is based on observable and testable phenomena and also doesn't claim it is 100% true, merely a work in progress, a modifiable theory that can even be totally scrapped if better theories arise. The other is obvious superstitious nonsense based on wishful thinking and linked to a period in human history when the majority of people couldn't even read and write and had little understanding of how the world around them worked. One is helpful in human progress, one holds it back. Hope this helps

This love thy neighbor stuff is absolute bullshit. Humans aren't hardwired like that! Humans have such a powerful self preservation instinct that over-rides pretty much everything. And those who persecute us represent a threat to our survival, so human instinct is to NOT LOVE them, to be wary of them and if possible to annihilate them. This is why I am suspicious of people who try and love thy enemy, they have to do some pretty deceptive and creative psychological back-flips to create such an illusion. Such people are deceiving themselves, and are not to be trusted as they are out of touch with how they truly think and feel.
That's why Christ changes folks. Lifts the veil so that we see with new eyes.
We become new creations and are wired to care for others.
You won't be able to grasp this though. ...that and your post is a troll post.

2 Corinthians Chapter 5:17-21
Therefore if any man [be] in Christ, [he is] a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. And all things [are] of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech [you] by us: we pray [you] in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God. For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
John 6:56,57
He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

That is your choice. Unfortunately for you, you may never know that the person you hire or are working next to has HIV unless they decide to tell you. Considering your attitude about it, them confessing isn't likely. Also, it is illegal to not hire or fire someone because they are HIV positive. This disease qualifies as a disability under ADA standards.
Even, like, say, a butcher or sushi chef? With the sharp blades and whatnot. I don't know ...

I care. Many of us has witnessed Tbombz literally grow up on this board. From that chubby little kid on the motor bike to all the phases -- the tribulations of life, he has gone through. Like so many in his generation he so often seem just so lost and confused.
I've had many discussions and debates with him over the years and there have been times that I truly despised him and other times where I felt sorry for him and his parents. I really wish him well. He's not just some stranger for many of us that have been on this board for over a decade. And I do care what happens to him.
I remember so many of posts when he was just a kid. He was a good kid.
They grow up so fast.

He's not just some stranger to me and despite it all

There seems to be a very condescending tone and underlying hostility, and even anger, to those that don't share your beliefs. Why is that? People are condescending because they think they are better than others. Is that what you think? You are better and smarter than say, Physicist Max Planck, or the vast majority of Presidents of the US? The vast majority of people in the US? The vast majority of people in the world?
Often one feels hositility and even anger because they feel threatened or insulted. Do you feel threatened and insulted? If so, why? If not, why the anger?
You make claims as a matter of fact when it is demonstrably not true. When you say "faith by definition is the domain of the irrational simple minded fool" is just simply not true. That is your definition which includes your personal bias and hostility. You will find no formal definition that describes faith that way anywhere. Was William F. Buckley, a devout Catholic, a simple minded fool? Many would disagree with him on a variety of issues but his intellectual gravitas has never been in question.
Believing in something in which you have no concrete proof, faith, is quite common. We have a presidential campaign and all the contenders sincerely believe they will be president. I mean, why would you take such a tremendous undertaking if you thought that you will lose? But they have faith in themselves. The proof will come in November. Most will be proven that they were wrong.
But are they all irrational, simple minded fools?
Of course their "faith" is not based on a toss of a coin. They have reasons, good reasons, why they think they will win. I believe I have good reasons why I think there is a creator. I believe the secularist also has good reasons to believe what they believe. Carl Sagan said of that TV series back in the 1980's that it's either Matter that always existed or that there was a creator of that Matter. He believed in eliminating that one extra step. I don't.
No need to get angry or condescending. None of this can be proven. The question is what makes for a better world. And that is another subject for lively debate.

Again with the conscending comments. But, yes, I have always struggled with these concepts. This subject is one of the few issues that I take very seriously. How one views the world, their world view, their metaphysics; determines their ethics.
And again you make the claim that it is "obvious superstitious nonsense." It is not so obvious, my friend, and there are people on a much, much, higher intellectual plane than either you or I that would also disagree with you. The claims you make reflect your credibility and I'm not quite sure for now how serious you are with your posts or if you are just trolling. But I will give you the benefit of the doubt.
"One is helpful in human progress, one holds it back. Hope this helps."
Actually no, this does not help. You were not clear again which is which but I'm going to assume you mean that secularism advances the human race and religiousity stagnates or retards human progress.
I'm over fifty years old now and have seen society evolve and attitudes and beliefs change. As our culture has gotten more secular I don't believe that people have become more honest, more decent, more respectful, less crass and, that goodness and the value of being good has increased.
We've advance tremendously as far as technology and quality of life goes, but ethically and morally I don't think so.
Aristotle, who was considered the greatest intellect of his time would be totally lost in a College level calculus class. But he would more than hold his own, if not dominate, any discussion in Philosophy and Ethics.
My uncle lied about his age (16 years old) so he could join the Army and defend this country which was under a real threat. The sense of duty and responsibility of past generations I find astounding and inspiring. Most today find this dumb and people of that age brain washed suckers.

Christian belief: If you eat shellfish on Friday, have sex before marriage, masturbate, have sex any other way but missionary style, God is going to send you to a pit of hell where you will be tortured forever and forever because you yanked your weiner.
Yes, that is irrational, simple, and stupid.

lol, blaming the atheist. Lets be real here: Most Christians are just as dishonest and immoral than atheists. Did you forget the priests raping little boys? lol at blaming secularism for the decline of morals. Can you show evidence of this? Or is it just your "hypothesis?"
There is no evidence to suggest that the moral decline is due to secularism.
I don't think that's true. The percentage of Priests seducing, not raping (and not little boys as that would be pedophilia and I hope you know the difference), is much lower than the general population. The percentage of crimes committed by Priest are quite a bit lower than the general population.
I do believe there is compelling evidence to show that the decline in morals is correlated to the declines in behavior. I will have to look up actually scientific evidence. And although in and of itself it is meaningless, I know I am a much better person knowing that I will have to answer for my behavior in this world.
Let me ask you something: say you were walking down a deserted street in a bad part of town by yourself and coming towards you were a group of say, 5 or 6 young adult males, of varied races, coming towards you. Would you be more cautious? More on your guard? A bit concerned for your safety?
BTW, I am not "blaming" atheist. I am blaming the cultural and moral decline of society due to the lack of a value system outside of one's self.
What do you do attribute the moral decline to?

Secularism is often equated to atheism, so I know what you really meant. Secularism: "does not display any belief or religion, regardless of their actual views. A secular institution is one that does not promote religion of any form." Again, we know you meant atheism.
"I do believe there is compelling evidence to show that the decline in morals is correlated to the declines in behavior."
I never said it wasnt. Re-read my original post. I said that a lack of morals and a decline in behavior had nothing to do with atheism.

He's not just some stranger to me and despite it all
Not to me either. I've actually met to him and spoken to him in person many times. He's not at all the "Facade" that he was on this board. Actually a very quiet, soft-spoken dude who listens when you speak.
We all put on internet facades, whether we like to admit it or not, there is a certain amount of automatic anonymity that comes with an internet forum profile. Not really much you can do to change it. There is no personal "in your face" contact... so easy to make it seem so...

No, when I say secularism I mean secularism. I was very specific in using that term rather than atheism. I believe most people nowadays don't really give much thought to these issues so they don't really take any formal moral position. They don't think through whether or not they believe in a God or not. Not seriously. They just live their lives. They just kind of wing it depending on their conscious and how they feel and want to be perceived. No real formal, thought through, moral position is taken.
You did not answer my question to the scenario given.
And I said the lack of values has to do with the lack of a coherent value system outside of yourself. It was very intentional that I did not say atheism. Instead of trying to interpret that you "know what I mean" just go by what I actually say as to what I mean. I would be very agreeable to clarifying anything if you think I am implying more than what I say.

Thinking of a God is not tied to any moral position that cannot be accounted for by someone who does not believe in a God.

I agree.
I believe that when one considers themselves an atheist they are taking a concerted theological position. I don't consider the same with a secularist. Many don't even know what a secularist is. I simply give them that label by default. This is not to say that all secularist don't give any thought to these issues.
Again, unless there is some personal reasons you choose not to, what is your answer to the scenario given.

I think it does. It has to do with religiosity and how it effects one's perception and behavior.
Feel free to ask me anything. The belief that you think it is relevant is good enough for me. My motivation is clarity and truth so I have no issue being proven wrong or tricked/trapped. What damage is done to my ego is far outweighed by the increase in understanding and, perhaps, wisdom.

No, it doesn't. And I know what youre going to say: If those young adults believed in a God they would not commit a crime, etc. Therefore, God = doing good things. Its a poor way to debate, as its impossible to say what Id do or what the context is, etc.
Go about proving your point in a better way.

Not here looking for a fight. You presume to know what I'm going to say but why does that change anything? It would appear to give you the advantage. You also seem to bear an underlying hostility towards those that don't share your beliefs. I just don't get it as I presume we are after the same thing. To make good people and a better world.
I guess that's that.
Pity.
Have a good day.

I've had many a heated debate with Tbombz. Despite his flaws and poor choices in life I found him to have an active mind and he really asked me some probing (please don't even think about it) and challenging questions.
As I mentioned before, I, we, have literally watched him grow up on this board and I at one time felt he was the most repulsive and contemptible person on this board. I really do hope and pray that God has turned his life around.
