How is slap saying shalom to blame? Like tk said it as a goodwill type thing slap adopted it. How is that bad?

Also I think some of you need to understand correlation doesn’t equal causation.

TK would say some unhinged shit and bookend it with "shalom", the whole shalom period had lots of lines and quotes filled with delusional grandeur and his glassy-eyed stare into his camera phone.

If you genuinely thought this was an optimistic face turn for TK at the time, I don't blame you but it does mean you're  regular or socially inept.

Again there was a time period where he threatened his wife on several different occasions, people here joked about it saying that he had "put a green light on her" or how it wasn't "shalom". If you want to talk about enabling or witnessing as a cause for what happened, I would at least look to the people here who allowed or encouraged the online carnival show to continue.

I don’t remember him green lighting then saying shalom in the same post . Also I love that you call me regular while on your high horse being a white knight. That’s some next level hypocrisy. So if I do something in the future I hope you feel guilty for my actions.

Commenting here to argue over whether or not you or slap as a whole was responsible is just making the situation now about you. Best to just donate as much as you can to this gofundme if you want to insert yourself into what happened. RIP Josiah.

This thread should be deleted or locked as nothing productive can come from it anymore.

tk didnt start the word Shalom …it was a meme here for the most part and the thread tried to prop up his skating

Now seeing his actions the jokes are probably over and most of us adults recognize this

[DaleSr]

Agreed. Lock this shit down.

[sweet pee]

Agreed as well...

Can this thread be locked or set up to redirect to the Go Fund Me page for Josiah's family?

Nope.. im pretty good with the jokes and such. The shaloms can and will continue.

Were random peoples on an internet forum discussing the ins and outs of whatever. Tk was a topic worthy of discussion. Its not our job or responsibility to only focus on the good and exist for the betterment of the world.

If the industry heads, past friends or current friends couldnt pull that dope to the side put a mirror on the meme that was his personality, find him a warehouse job and tell him to grow the fuck or end up the annoying old guy with no life skills then you really think the opinion of an avatar on here is going to have the reach to adjust his way of thinking for the good or bad your out of your mind..

And for real though.. whys he meeting folks in a motel of all places. 3 things happen in motels, travelling salesman, some suspect fucking and money exchange, or a good end to a date with a girl you arent quite ready to let know where you live yet.

good for the family, but unfortunately it doesn't look like they're going to be able to collect on this, seeing as how he couldn't even afford to bail himself out of jail.

I don't know about deleting, but maybe locked?

The point is that the thread basically meme'd TK's left field Insta posts, starting from when he quit Baker... and whether or not people should continue the memes is a little fucked...

Not sure about IL but in a lot of states if he were to ever get work release where he could potentially make money (even if it were very little) his wages would be garnished to pay the family. Preventing it from being "put on his books" or his commissary account. Meaning he would only get what the state provides as far as food and necessities. He wouldn't be able to get any extra food or drinks or even splurge for the name brand items. Meaning a rougher time in prison.

Here is a list of commissary items with prices as reference
https://www.bop.gov/locations/institutions/dub/DUB_CommList.pdf

And if there is still debt owed after leaving prison that wage garnishment would stay in place until paid. A lot of prisoners pay these off well after being released, if at all. So theses types of things stay around for life and they have to see that every time they get a pay check.

Hug your friends, tell them you love them.

The brain is just like any other organ, it can stop working properly. End the stigma of mental health.

Oh wait, this is the TK thread. Forgot the astounding double standard.

This post needs to be on every page.

This shouldn’t have happened. Someone should have stepped in.

RIP Josiah.

So sad, I hope Josah's family and friends can one day find peace and heeling in this lifetime. Let's not forget Jaden Man, Phylis Rose, and MsSarahthe1, so very tragic for them as well.

When can this officially become a “fuck TK” thread?

it became that for me the min this story came out.

Not gonna lie this thread's kinda fucking disgusting considering how this shit ended.

[close]

I been following this thread ever since I just lurked on here, it's incredibly tragic. Ups and downs have gone on...but not this low, it really is pretty disgusting at this point, and a little embarrassing imo, we've had a laugh over the years, but this is what it come to...nothing funny anymore about any of this. RIP to Josiah, people that knew him are showing up here now and they deserve to have a place on slap to show their love, away from this, so I hope they make a thread for him.

150% this

[shannamal]

if all of you that want this thread killed just stop fucking posting in it, it'll move to the second page, and won't be a thing any more.

This whole situation is beyond tragic. R.I.P to Josiah, he seemed like a really well loved and respected guy, stuff that goes way beyond just skating. I’m heartbroken for his family and all of you guys here that knew him personally. We need more people like Josiah in every aspect of every community. Good hearted, good natured people. Rest easy, Josiah.

Goddamn it, TK, why did you have to let the story end like this? A big part of me was always hoping for that redemption arc one day, where we got to see Terry actually skating and being his old self again, and finding some legitimate help for his deteriorating state of mental health; now I don’t even want to fucking look at the guy. Whatever bed he’s made for himself, he deserves to lay in it at this point. Man, shit like this just makes your head hurt.

I think it's time this thread wraps up. It was funny at first, but the more and more this goes on it's extremely evident we have something big and possibly deadly on the way.

Do the mint Supra TK Skytops in my closet go up or down in value now?  Thinking about donating the proceeds to Josiah.

What size?

[funeral_tuxedo]

I'm wondering if we could do some kind of Slap charity to raise money for Josiah's people? I would gladly donate some things to sell in an online benefit with all the proceeds going to the family of the departed. Any of you all have any experience organizing something like that?

here’s the link if you haven’t seen this yet. his family wanted the money to go towards a memorial, most likely at GE park instead of his funeral.

TK Skytops?  You mean the Tk hightop pro model ("The Society"), or like actual Supra "Skytops"? The Skytops are by the Muska. The Society were a barf rip off version of Margiela's (french lux fashion house).

The skytops were more popular, but really can't see either of those shoes appreciating in value... at least for now, no dis to Muska

Nah they’re are cool posters but for the most part everyone just loves to talk down on skaters going through a hard time in their lives. I feel like I’m in the minority because I like posting about being stoked and supporting the skaters I love.

fine, but yr original post lumped all of slap in with some bullshit. supporting the skaters you love sounds good to me.
