The reality is starting to sink in

I know I shouldn't be surprised but some of the ABU bullshit flying around since last week is hilarious.

Funny how this angry, nasty bully is seemingly so well respected by virtually everyone in the game.

Woke up feeling pretty gutted this morning, I must admit. Gonna miss him.
