What happened to Pook?

[ArcBound]

I'm not butthurt about it. I don't care. Thing is, it wasn't him telling a joke, it was him trying to retaliate. Quite obviously.

Right. Obviously You didn't care at all so you posted a short diatribe in response to a one-liner about how he should:

Grow up
Be a man
How he won't survive in the world

But you're not angry at him and you don't care. Sure.

 

[BPH]

Don't take my word because this is hearsay.

I believe I saw on the MPUAForum or somewhere else that Pook moved on to create a blog about his escapades with women. According to what I read it seems that he has become somewhat misogynistic towards women, realizing that they see a man as nothing more than a walking dild* for brief sexual pleasure.

I do not remember where I saw this however.

 

[BigSmooth]

He turned homosexual and is now Lance Bass's secret lover.

Maybe he suffered the fate of many of the great men in our time

Women destroyed him....

Women have led to the fall of countless men. Some of the greatest men of our time have fallen because of a woman. Maybe with all of pook's knowledge and overstanding he ended up falling for the trap and succumbed to it.

Maybe he just lost interest in posting. You can only say the same thing in so many different ways before you just lose interest in writing or discussing that subject anymore.

Personally, I just browse SS whenever I need a reminder. Most of the time, it's the same stuff repeated in different ways. Seriously, what I got out of Pook's stuff is not making getting women whether just for sex or an LTR a priority in one's life. Once you make that shift, you just don't really care about coming on sites like this as often anymore.

This Pook guy's been registering new names for years asking about himself. Textbook narcissist.

The secret of the pook

He has a website on the net. Its quite popular, but it is not about women or sexuality.

After pook left he created his blog, but before that he posted on several men's rights forums which i happened to find since he kept the same moniker. Along the way he mentioned some interests of his that i kept in the back of my mind. All went quiet on the pook front for a while as his blog posts became infrequent. Then one day I stumbled across an article featured on a gaming website. As I read the article the writing style was pookish although the credited name was not. When I finished the article I knew it was him. Dozens more would come out as features until he created his own website, a site about gaming and business trends, with mythos and sexuality sprinkled in, as a pook is known to do.

I wanted to e-mail him, but its clear he's moved onto something else in his life. Didn't feel like connecting him to this place. He would of have done it he wanted to. So I'll forgo spilling the beans, but the clues are out there. Anyone who followed the rise of the Nintendo Wii and the battle of Video game analysts may have been reading pook all along and not even realized it.

yankee hotel foxtrot, probably my favorite album ever

 

[Nutz]

My guess, he either got married or died. Funny how both have the same net effect.

Are you referring to Pook's Mill? It's hard to imagine he was getting so deeply involved in video game consoles as he spoke out against them a lot.

Wait a minute...

Here's a guy who's writing from "Pookeepsie, NY". Does anyone suppose....

 

[Groovy]

Pook became depressed and left with his tail between his legs because he was scared no one would like him anymore. he even started a blog, pooks mill, which was way worse then everything he had ever posted, ever. He was pretty cool for a while, tho. Hopefully he will bounce back and return someday.

 

[bigneil]

There comes a time when a man must outgrow this place and move on, except in the case where certain guys still dabble here and there with the purpose of helping those who come after him. There are a couple here that are doing this very thing.

Hmm... has anyone ever seen Pook and Atom Smasher at the same time? Coincidence? I think not.

Heh, I wondered that same thing.

 

[Zodiac]

Pook was one of the people I first read on here after pretty much everyone and their father recommend me to. His post were nice to read through but honestly towards the end it was like his posts were on repeat to the point I just started to ignore most of what he posted and instead went onto reading Mr. Fingers/Senior Fingers instead.

 

[Rubato]

Just look at his location... he's obviously in Nirvana

 

[Atom Smasher]

Pook!

Thy presence is sorely missed. We bid thee appear anon and grace us with a visitation. You are hereby summoned.

But soft! Do I hear a whirlwind in yon distance? Verily, it is the Pook manifesting out of the whirlwind. Wise sage, what advice utterest thou, that we might profit from thy benificent locution?

Pook looked not unkindly into my eyes and proclaimed, "Atom Smasher! Proclaim to these men and boys that my philosphy can be summed up in one, single word."

"What could that word be, thought Atom Smasher? Is it "Alpha"? Is it "Non-desperation"? Is it "Frame"?"

Thundered the mighty Pook from his jeweled throne, "The word is ACTION!"

With that, a mighty firestorm descended around Pook, enveloping him in a swirling maelstrom of flames and carrying him skyward.

"But Pook... Wither goest thou? To rub elbows with Euclid? To hobnob with Socrates?"

"Nay", came a thunderous but diminishing voice from within the vortex of fire, "I travel back to my goodly wife. She has stated that she shall wring my neck should I neglect to clean up the garage this day."

Atom Smasher arose and wiped the considerable dust and debris off his clothing and did the only thing that can be done after such an encounter. He cooked himself a hamburger. "Action", he thought...ACTION..."

Hmm... has anyone ever seen Pook and Atom Smasher at the same time? Coincidence? I think not.

Oh, yes, we have been seen together. Our recent conversation is quoted above.

Isn't the 7th dimension supposed to be Nirvana?

Pooks Mill

 

[MaestroRyan]

Pook was prophetic in his writing. Lots of his blog posts still ring true today.

Reading lots of Pook for years gets me wondering, ‘Where did Pook go?’

This must be exactly how Whamen feel when we play mysteriously & are willing to walk away at the drop of a hat. Really gets the hamster wheel spinning.

‘Did he die? Did he get arrested? Did he get married? Did he move on to better?’

Take note, only one of those options are positive…

 

[Dr.Suave]

He moved on.
