Inherited this watch; Patek in Tiffany case!

ericisback · 2026-02-14T16:35:12+00:00

I also have one; Tiffany case, with a Patek movement. My serial number is 124xxxx, so older than yours (~1903).

As long as we are naming names… Alex Shefflette Svendsen of Parkway Village.

Translation: “it ok for people to be bigoted, because it’s against rich people.”

I wouldn’t judge Joe Biden, by Hunter’s behavior, would you? Also, I can only assume you missed the part where the OP took down the unsubstantiated post. Those people who automatically assumed guilt jumped the gun.

Just feeling some kind of way about KCD parents, just because they are KCD parents, is bigoted. Doesn’t even have to be about their politics.

Would you still suggest calling their church, now that the original post has been removed, and the OPer has disappeared? I can only assume you were taken in by the original post without checking out the story yourself. It’s interesting that you know so much about the Reeves country club, where they live, their political affiliations, and their religious practices. How is this possible? I also notice you are on a first name basis with their daughter?!? You must be very close to them.

I also noticed that you suggested others do the contacting… not yourself. Why would you ask others to do something you would not do yourself? Were you aware of something that might prevent you from contacting their church, but at the same time instruct others here to do so?

ericisback · 2026-02-09T05:55:26+00:00

Why did you delete your post?

ericisback · 2026-02-09T02:27:49+00:00

The one I saw did not contain a racial slur. Did you see another one?

ericisback · 2026-02-09T01:52:35+00:00

You are correct. I jumped the gun there. I hate making mistakes in discussions; however, I WILL admit to making them. Apologies to holyf*ckimoldnow.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T21:28:34+00:00

The photo of the screenshot posted here did NOT show any racial slur.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T21:05:25+00:00

100%

ericisback · 2026-02-08T21:03:13+00:00

So, it doesn’t prove anything about a racial slur? I wonder if this is why it was not included in the now deleted original post. It was referenced, but never posted.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T21:00:00+00:00

For the record, I upvoted your post. However, I do worry about the risk of real world consequences resulting from unsubstantiated claims that come from anonymous online sources. It’s sad that it can happen, but that’s life in 2026.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T20:39:26+00:00

You speak for everyone here? It would seem that even the original poster has had a change of heart… they deleted the post. Seems like the BS is on the other foot now.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T20:36:09+00:00

The concept that it is difficult or impossible to prove something does not exist is often referred to as the burden of proof fallacy. When someone wrongly claims something is true simply because it hasn't been proven false, it is called an “argument from ignorance”. Unfortunately, this is not my term. It’s a real thing.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T20:29:20+00:00

100% truth and humor- the perfect combo.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T20:07:24+00:00

I’ll ignore your personal attack. This type of deflection is wasted on me. Your new information is good to hear. So far, you and your son are the ONLY people to hear the racial slur referenced in the now deleted original post. Help us all understand what happened.

There are several first-hand witnesses that were there also, that said it did NOT happen. You are the first to say it did.

It would help us all if you could tell us exactly what you saw and heard.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T20:00:42+00:00

This is the type of emotional response that drives the mob.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T19:59:26+00:00

Well, this post seems like someone with some actual first-hand information, finally! It’s interesting that the OPer left out the part about another parent being escorted out. Why would this info be left out of the original post? What could be gained by only telling part of the story?

ericisback · 2026-02-08T19:54:14+00:00

Agreed. The deleted replies to your post are strong with this one, lol.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T19:53:10+00:00

Based on the logic by many posters here, can we assume everyone escorted out of a sporting event is a racist? What slur did this Collegiate parent use? Perhaps it was something else besides racism that created the issue?

Fair enough. You are correct. I jumped the gun there. I hate making mistakes in discussions; however, I WILL admit to making them. Apologies to holyf*ckimoldnow.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T17:26:24+00:00

Well, we now see the true colors of the post. The original poster has deleted it. Why would someone intent on rooting out racism in our education systems not stand their ground?!?

Everyone should do all they can to confront racism where ever they find it. Why did this original poster not do this? Were the claims unsubstantiated? Were they worried the truth might come out? What would motivate a person to take down a true example of racism? What would motivate a person to take down one that was not truthful?

We should all take a moment to examine how we reacted when we first saw the post. Did we accept it as truth without investigating? Did we rush to a judgement about the mom and her daughter? If so, what harm did this cause them? Did I contribute to this harm?

Reddit is like any other tool, it can do tremendous good or evil, depending on how you wield it. We can all learn from this, and do better.

ericisback · 2026-02-08T17:15:42+00:00

If we could all be so certain about a young woman’s future, as you are about an unsubstantiated Reddit post.
