Pensive's Departure is a Repeat of Carleton
Poast new message in this thread
Date: November 26th, 2005 11:47 PM Author: smoky free-loading stock car I just got through reading the pensive posts about his departure, and then the posts by "West Coast Guy", who is very clearly pensive.
I am a Carleton gradudate who had, and still has, access to pensive's Carleton userfile. In that userfile, which is part of an internal message board system at the college, pensive posted exactly the same kind of messages he has posted here. There is the same mindboggling defensiveness, the pathetic retreat to claims of "schtick" whenever his posts become too incendiary or offensive, the misogyny, the delusions of grandeur. He ended his user file with in a depressed, conciliatory tone like he did here, though the system prevented him from commenting on his file using alternate monikers. There were several occasions throughout the file on which he threatened, or promised, to close it, but most of those statements proved to be meaningless. When he finally ended the user file, which had existed only for his senior year, there were over 1600 posts. Many of those were made by other students, but many of them were also made by pensive. Some of them were almost hilariously long, perhaps upwards of three pages. That user file was actually his second file; he had a different one during his freshman and sophomore years which he had removed from the system.
After he closed his user file, he began posting on XOXO (or maybe his XOXO posting began before he closed his user file; I'm not sure).
There are two things I wish to emphasize: 1) pensive has used this "it was all schtick" excuse many times in the past, when it very clearly was not at all schtick. 2) the concialatory tone in which he ended his posts here is probably nothing more than posturing, though he himself may believe in his own sincerity temporarily.
This is the sad story of pensive and his "schtick".
EDIT: I am posting this because I am tired of pensive doing the same thing over and over again. I hope that exposing the repetitiveness of this cycle does something to weaken it, but I'm probably too late at this point.
Another edit -- here are some thoughts I have on pensive: I have interacted with him once or twice, and many of my friends have had much longer interactions with him. He is by no means a bad or malicious person. But he is very, very, very socially awkward in addition to being overtly self-promoting and unrelenting when he wants to be part of a group no matter how many times he is rebuffed. That combination of traits makes him unpleasant to be around and widely avoided. But in face-to-face situations he is not at all mean or insulting.
I can only speak to how he behaved while at Carleton, though it seems that he has not changed much. His extreme lack of social success, especially in the girlfriend department, apparently frustrates him greatly and makes him more and more bitter. I can understand why it is so difficult for him, and I hope he will realize how deep a hole he has dug for himself. But I doubt it. There were many people who posted in his user file with very kind, helpful comments, and he managed to ignore, dismiss, or mentally twist all of them enough to perpetuate his self-delusions. I have no idea how to get through to him. I honestly think if he had more social success the negative aspects of his personality would be significantly (though not wholly) mitigated. |

I don't know anything about the Carleton file, but I think your synposis of him is inaccurate. He alluded to being that way when he was really young (like 18 or 19) but this was because he power-trained for math contests and had no social life in high school. He said he was completely unaware of social norms and extremely aggressive at seeking entry into social circles where he might be inappropriate. All signs of this were gone when I met him, which was age 22, and he seemed to have an understanding of what he had been doing wrong when he was younger.
I've met him and been in public places (bars, restaurants) with him. Most often, he's socially normal, but he gets extremely nervous around approaching women, to the point that he sticks out like a sore thumb. He may behave strangely in isolated episodes; he has a family history of cyclothymia and has suspected himself of having the same disease. He refused to go into treatment (instead seeking insomnia treatment) because he feared a diagnosis would black-ball him from certain career opportunities. According to what I have from him, and I talked to him today, he has reached a point where he cannot ignore the condition anymore and is seeking "significantly more aggressive treatment" in December.
No I'm not fucking pensive, and if you say I am, I will track you down and kill you in front of your parents. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 1:10 AM Author: titillating home I think its a good idea for him to try to get treatment for his disorder.

Date: November 27th, 2005 12:17 AM Author: Cheese-eating Comical Brethren oh, that. i have always suspected that the mystery of pensive is far more evolved than trite "board shtick" or similar shenanigans. have you considered the quite likely possibility that he was using "departure" not for its literal meaning but rather as a figurative, ominous foreboding of some sort? in that sense, doesn't the idea of pensive become a much more elaborate psychological maze than one might think? personally, i think that fucker's mind defies simple explanation (https://autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=306628&forum_id=2#4391784) |

Date: November 27th, 2005 12:04 AM Author: Charismatic Gas Station Trump Supporter this is easily more interesting than the usual thread where people pretend to know exactly what admission decisions someone will get. and it's all about the details behind "insecure." for some reason the post that feigns indifference to information that has just been consumed is just as much a staple as those that broadly affirm the sorts of people who post here. but genuine indifference rarely merits pointing it out. it's hard to imagine who might have a strong opinion that the original post ought never have been made.

I wasn't aware that those threads were meant to be interesting. Informative, sure.
"and it's all about the details behind 'insecure.'"
I think you've already diagnosed this case properly, counselor: kid doesn't get laid much.
"but genuine indifference rarely merits pointing it out."
Really? Tell that to a typical movie viewer. |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 12:26 AM Author: Charismatic Gas Station Trump Supporter fair point on that last one. i concede that it's complete bull shit when the claim is made "ifyou really didn't care you would have nothing to say."
in fact, all your points are reasonable and well taken. i just didn't wan to seea source of good information dry up. for some reason, i find this guy interesting, perhaps because you rarely see anyoneso transparent. but it's certainly understandable that you've seen enough |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 12:34 AM Author: Azure razzmatazz associate step-uncle's house "i find this guy interesting, perhaps because you rarely see anyoneso transparent."
I suppose "interesting" depends on your disposition, but Pensive's combination of moderate (or better) intelligence and utter unwitting transparency is objectively odd. I just wish we'd leave him alone, and vice versa--likely to be better for all parties. |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 12:49 AM Author: smoky free-loading stock car You are absolutely right--if he avoided this attention in the first place, I believe he would be better off. And I'm probably not helping things by posting. But I've sat idly by up until this point and things have become remarkably repetitive. I wanted to make a post for once.

Date: November 27th, 2005 12:28 AM Author: smoky free-loading stock car I'm not so sure. There are a few user files on the message board that receive frequent posts. But the board is often used for classes as well; profs tell students to post questions about the reading on the board and then compile a list of questions to use for class, etc. So students pretty much have to be familiar with the system. pensive's user file was particularly "popular" (if that's the right word) because of the immense flame wars it sparked. For example, imagine that pensive's mysoginistic posts actually had female readers who knew who he was and saw him in person every day... you get the idea.

|
Date: November 27th, 2005 1:00 AM Author: smoky free-loading stock car A fair question.
It's probably not the best moniker, but I chose it because his "schtick" never really dies. Imagine my surprise, after he had closed his user file months and months ago, to find him on this board, a law school discussion board no less. He closed his file sophomore year, then closed it his senior year, then I stumbled upon him again. He never seems to go away, and I can't tear myself away from the drama as long as he keeps posting. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 1:11 AM Author: Charismatic Gas Station Trump Supporter those who profess to being beleaguered by being in the "public eye" often seek the very sensation of lamenting all the attention. the reliability of that except is highly questionable, too. it's meant to appear as if it's a candid slice of his unmediated thoughts, but it was clearly intended to end up here. he can't altogether avoid moments of truth and accuracy, though. he's quite genuinely invested here, and made the unambiguously bad choice of involving his real identity. consider who the relatively few posters are who have let their actual identity be known and yet still kept appearing.
what appears to be lost on him is that everyone, to one degree or another, has has committed similar acts of pretense. it's a bit like an infant who discovers crude methods of deception and is unaware that they are obvious to everyone else. |

Smart, personable guy with a fucked-up past who appears to have nearly chronic emotional pain because of it. Based on what he's told me, he had periods of hypomania and depression during high school that became entrenched as a permanent part of his personality after trauma; he was stalked in early college.
I've met him once, long after the drama subsided (September 2005). He seems completely normal in person, and probably is normal in most of his life. However, he lashes out erratically and bizarrely on Internet forums because these are the parts of his personality he takes great pains to hide from people around him.
With his permission and prior password, I have changed the PW of the pensive account so he cannot access it. Hopefully he will seek help without need of public exposure. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 2:38 AM Author: slate gaming laptop lodge I don't know if Govoni ever even pretended to be considering suspension for the "stalkers," but he clearly never did, while Mike did sketchy and bizarre shit all the time. Just a couple of examples: the "head injury" story he made up to excuse his social awkwardness, his bizarre internet relationship with some girl that he told everybody about all the time and when he told everyone that he was going to act as "the vulture" during Screw Your Roommate, "swooping in" to pick up any girls abandoned or stood up by their dates. This is to say nothing of the poetry recitals or any time Mike tried to dance at a party (although, to be fair, he wasn't much more awkward than most guys at Carleton and he was at least willing to try).
Also, there was apparently some weird thing where he claimed that the evil cabal that was out to get him was also involved in some kind of kiddie porn traficking ring. I don't know what that was all about. |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 2:44 AM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life I actually know about some of this, too. The "head injury" was an indirect and probably slightly dishonest reference to the post-traumatic worsening of his mental condition after being stalked for two years. I can see that it would do that to a person.
I haven't heard of "the vulture", but that's actually pretty funny.
Dean didn't suspend the stalkers because they all signed papers saying they wouldn't go near the fucker for the rest of their time at college, and given the greyness as to who-did-what when it came to harrassing them, there wasn't enough material to bring any one person to criminal prosecution.
Let me ask: even if these stories are true, why do you bring them up when they were so long ago? |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 3:03 AM Author: slate gaming laptop lodge I'm pretty sure Mike eventually admitted that he flat-out made up the head injury, though I really didn't pay a lot of attention, so I don't know. In an event, the point is that at least a few girls were legitimately creeped out by Mike, even if I don't think he ever really meant any harm and some of them were probably getting a little carried away.

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:08 AM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life Ever consider the possibility that the girls had a grudge and might be completely unreliable? There seems to have been a lot of bullshit that was flung about, and it smells like you're fanning it.
Also, it's known (and confirmed by Dean) that all the girls who made this claim of him were in the bottom quarter of the class, and most in the bottom tenth. At least in his "memoir", pensive's argument, which is convincing, is that they were trying to make up for their own intellectual insecurities by claiming the attentions of a person who was clearly gifted. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:17 AM Author: slate gaming laptop lodge I was there, so I really don't need to rely on a wildly-biased second-hand account, the way that you presumably would.

you already seem quite certain of the answer, anyway.
by the way, mike, the standard cover story for "memoirs" like yours is that it's "too hot for the big manhattan publishing houses." not doubt an internet-driven teasing drama from carleton college is something they would get behind if only the public could take Truth given in such a potent dosage.
[now you get angry, assiduously channeling that anger through "media kid's" comically thin knowledge of the publishing industry. here's one piece of advice: do a little more fact checking on how fact checking goes down before you deploy it again as one of the three or so phrases you invoke to sell this "memoir" story. it really is the ultimate fantasy, isn't it mike: that someone would actually pay money for your dime-a-dozen story of social ostracism. this is where the fantasy is most vital to sustaining you in reality, so it is perhaps best that we not upset you and your special friend "media kid" any more.] |

Date: November 27th, 2005 2:17 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life I finally get the Renada schtick: throw together a bunch of ungrammatical and illogical prose to make a weak attack on someone not present in the argument, and because the writing will be so insufferably painful to parse and read, people will mistake this disorganization and intellectual laziness for intelligence and admire you! That's a fucking brilliant schtick. I wish I had come up with it myself.
Anyway, I doubt that he's going to go through with publishing the book, for various reasons of identity-protection. While the material is publishable (it's not "dime-a-dozen" for someone to be stalked for two years) it would also present severe risk to the author. So the probability of its publication is very low. I was merely bringing the fucking thing up to explain how I am privy to the details of this fiasco about which loser-fucker low-class trash like you can only bandy about imbecilic conjectures. |

|
Date: November 27th, 2005 1:22 AM Author: smoky free-loading stock car They knew him for at least two years of his time at Carleton, including his senior year. It's not like everyone disliked him, but every single person I spoke to thought he was socially awkward.

----------------------------------------------------------
We all realize that you are pensive.
I'm sorry. You really don't deserve all the crap you've had to endure, but a lot of it stems from your own actions and unwillingness to admit your faults and work on them.
EDIT: There were a lot of kids on campus who made fun of you because you were an easy target. Who was going to stand up to defend you when someone started trash-talking? So many people have had uncomfortable encounters with you and your awkwardness was well known and often immediately visible. Nobody I ever spoke to bought this "reputation was raped" stuff for a minute. Nobody ever maligned you to me (as in, "Hey, you don't know pensive, but stay away from him"). But I soon realized that there was one particular student who was extremely awkward and largely avoided. And you were so self-promoting that people found a moral ground for insulting you, I think. Also, people feel better about themselves when they talk about what a loser someone else is. And you were the biggest target for that. But the "pensive is a loser" stuff came up pretty rarely. Enough that I felt bad for you, but not enough to influence my opinion before I saw you in person. |

He once posed on this board as a psychiatrist claiming that pensive's experience was in line with a hot new trend in psych research, something called "cluster harrassment." A Google search thereof, if I recall correctly, turned up zero hits.
True to pensive form, of course, he stuck with his story. |

now, run your overwhelming compulsion to respond through the increasingly agitated "media kid," and pretend anyone would ever listen to you when you tell them to do something.

Date: November 27th, 2005 2:45 PM Author: Spruce metal deer antler media kid -
i'm willing to take your claims at face value that you're not pensive. however, you're clearly being fed a line by him - and one that has some, but only a little, relation to reality.
regarding the head injury - this was an out and out lie, that he perpetuated for more than two years, even well after nobody believed it. it would arise in contexts such as when someone would post in his user file about something he had done to them (followed home after a party, told an off-color joke to strangers, otherwise creeped someone out - anyone who was at carleton and read the user files can verify that there were several dozen of these first-hand accounts over a two year or so period). he would use it as a defense, claiming that this head injury, sustained while defending someone else's honor, had left him unable to determine when he was acting inappopriately (yet he refused to seek help for it, claiming it (the help, not the injury) would somehow prevent him from obtaining future employment). it had no relation to the stalking charges he makes, and in fact predated it, since he used the head injury defense from the middle of his frosh year on. however, it was transparently false, and he was constantly called on it. after a few years, he finally admitted it was entirely made up.
about the stalking - carleton has a vicious rumor mill, as do most small schools, i'm sure. i have no doubt that people said bad things about him, but in no way was he denigrated more than hundreds of other people. i personally was also a victim of the rumor mill during my time at carleton. i had one guy who hated me so much that he literally shuddered when i'd walk into the same room as him. he would befriend anyone who was close to me, and feed them a stream of lies until they stopped talking to me. did it make me mad? of course. but did i start using as an excuse for anti-social behavior? of course not. i admit that i did a lot of things there that could be interpreted as sketchy (mostly a result of being stoned 90% of the time i was there), but once i straightened out, and exposed the liars for what they were, i was able to have a semi-normal social life (i'm introverted by nature and don't maintain a lot of relations by choice). also, i know of a woman who had the rumor spread that she had aids, which was entirely untrue. again, she survived without managing to piss off a good percentage of the people she encountered, or resorting to pathological lies to excuse her behavior...
in other words, all of his problems are brought about by his behavior. |

as for small schools, i don't know. i can't imagine it was any worse than the frat-house atmosphere at larger schools. i mean, if you're into theater or video/role playing games, carleton is like heaven. i just think that people who spend all day playing games are losers. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:22 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life Social life was pretty miserable at my large school, too. I think the problem is the people; a lot of these elite school kids aren't actually very smart, studied to the exclusion of all else, and have defective personalities and various status-related complexes. So college becomes a mixing pot of their bullshit. What I'd be scared about at a small school is not being able to get away from it. Where I went, I'd just find a new group.

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:00 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life "regarding the head injury - this was an out and out lie"
My understanding is that it was a metaphor for the post-traumatic complications of being stalked for two years. Most people who have post-traumatic issues are either dishonest or completely unforthcoming about the matter, for the good reason that people won't understand the problem anyway. Add to this the fact that most PTs have no idea, for a long time, that they are PT and will tend to misattribute the problem. He did have a minor head injury (less severe than an average soccer concussion) at about the same time-- the story checks-- but so minor that it would not have caused any psychological damage, much less the PT symptoms.
"followed home after a party, told an off-color joke to strangers, otherwise creeped someone out - anyone who was at carleton and read the user files can verify that there were several dozen of these first-hand accounts over a two year or so period"
Yeah, I know people made a lot of shit up about him. What I can't understand-- and this is part of why the family has reservations about him writing the book-- is why he maintained such a public exposure while people were continually stalking/harassing him. That seems bizarre to me, because if I were in his situation (and it could have happened to absolutely anyone, which is what makes it so fascinating) I would remove all public exposure and deal with the problem as privately and silently as possible.
"he would befriend anyone who was close to me, and feed them a stream of lies until they stopped talking to me. did it make me mad?"
You should've nailed the loser-fucker. Did you have any rich/powerful friends? By which, I mean powerful enough that they could have a malignant, life-impeding character set down without any consequences? It seems like pensive would have had a better life if he had pursued that with regard to at least the more vicious detractors. I don't advocate this as a way of dealing with any but the worst of enemies but sometimes it really does call. Anyway, I'm sorry to hear that this happened to you. I like schools like Carleton a lot (I went to an impersonal "prestigious" place and wish I had gotten a real education) but it seems like they have some pretty severe social problems. |

you have the timeline wrong - that was the point of my post. he was using the head injury as an excuse basically from the day he entered carleton.
>Yeah, I know people made a lot of shit up about him.
no, this wasn't made up shit. it was corroborated, first hand accounts of things he did.
>You should've nailed the loser-fucker. Did you have any rich/powerful friends?
no, he was far more rich and powerful than i am. but i got the last laugh. at his graduation (he was a year ahead of me), i went and spent like ten minutes talking to his family, complimenting them on their son's acheivements. he was standing right there, and had a look on his face like he was about to vomit. i really wish i had a camerca with me that day... |

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:18 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life "you have the timeline wrong - that was the point of my post. he was using the head injury as an excuse basically from the day he entered carleton."
I would have to read the file, if that's what you're referring to. Anyway, since the stalking of him started in, what, like his first month (?) it wouldn't be unreasonable that he'd start having PT issues in winter (3 month mark). He wouldn't develop these problems after the stalking concluded, but shortly after it started and while it was still going on.
"this wasn't made up shit. it was corroborated, first hand accounts of things he did."
Knowing him, I really doubt your claim. A lie from anyone can be "corroborated" and "first-hand". I'm sure that he was awkward at 18, because most people are, but the shit that was put out about him is unreasonable and no one in their right mind would believe it.
"no, he was far more rich and powerful than i am."
This is irrelevant, if you have one rich friend willing to do some dirty work, you're good. :) |

whatever. again, he didn't deny that a lot of it happened - he just used the head injury as an excuse for his actions. and didn't you say that you've met him . . . once? |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 3:36 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life Yeah but it was for three days. I've also talked to him on IM and over email re: the book. So I actually know him, I would assume, better than most people. Did you know him personally?
I think he didn't "deny" that a lot of it happened because these fuckers were crazy and going to come after him with weapons if he told anyone what they were doing. I'm sure he did some college goofball shit, but the hyperbolic stuff is just outlandish. |
|
Date: November 27th, 2005 3:40 PM Author: garnet station nowag What's more "outlandish" -- the notion that a dozen "fuckers were crazy and going to come after him with weapons if he told anyone what they were doing" or the idea that Mike Church did some extremely creepy stuff because he was a socially retarded math nerd?
I'm going to go with the latter, if that's OK with you, pensive.
Jesus, give it up. You're not fooling anyone. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:44 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life 1. I'm not pensive, you white trash piece of shit, and I've proven the fact in the past just as it has been proven that 174 is not pensive.
2. Your transparent attempts to impersonate 174 are ridiculous. You can be tracked and your combined insult on pensive, myself, and 174-- three people from good backgrounds-- leads to a high probability of you being set down if you do not behave. Market value for a nail is only about $20k.
3. You know nothing about anything and should shut the fuck up before you make matters worse for yourself. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 3:53 PM Author: garnet station nowag I'm not trying to impersonate 174, you idiot. It's obviously a joke moniker.
Even if you aren't pensive, what possible motivation could you have for defending him to this degree? You haven't posted here for months, supposedly. Pensive is now "gone," by YOUR OWN REPEATED STATEMENTS. He's gone, right? He doesn't need to be "defended" for hours on end. If you'd let it drop, pensive would be forgotten within a few days. But you can't let it drop, can you, Media Kid. You just can't. You and the other random pro-pensive posters in this thread are laughable. "Potential," "Null0" -- a "carleton student" and first-time poster who shows up with praise for pensive at 4:30 in the morning, you... it's so transparent as to be FUCKING RIDICULOUS.
Just get off the board, for your own mental health. Whether you're Mike Church or "Media Kid," drop it and leave and you'll be better off. |

Date: November 27th, 2005 4:08 PM Author: buff magical jewess love of her life You're "not trying to impersonate 174" because it's easy to find a 174 thread and verify that you're not him, idiot.

Date: November 28th, 2005 11:27 AM Author: pungent domesticated juggernaut Agreed. As much as can be said to pensive's credit, he was not at all humble and tried to stick out at Carleton and be well-known. While his story is essentially true (his enemies were and are underachievers motivated by envy) he is so openly arrogant toward them that it is essentially his fault that they have continued to harass them. He needs to take words like "loser-fucker" out of his vocabulary and stop telling his detractors how much smarter he is, because it ends up getting on everyone's nerves. Other than reacting explosively and haughtily to adversity, he's pretty normal.
