This is hilarious.
A GM offered me a draw!
Sort:
He's not really a GM. It's just part of his username. But funny!!
lol... Lots of people here have such nick name. It seems NM, IM, FM are not in demand.
He surely is a GM on the rise. Also, you are quite humble for not mentioning your two other wins.
OP's other two wins were not against the GM.

They weren't very special, I'm accustomed to beating mere IM's.
GM wannabes...
You should have taken a draw, I see a lot of people bragging that they got a draw against this or that master but no one seems to talk about their wins against them.

I remember Karpov once was playing simultan. He probably got money for each board he played, and then there was a player in the opening who offered a draw.
Karpov accepted! He knew that he would probably win, but only cared about the money. All of a sudden, almost everyone offered a draw and got one. Karpov later critized the players, but he didn't really care. It's nice to say: I drew Karpov. If you friends then ask how, you must say: He accepted my draw offer after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3
Moral: Never take a draw in an unclear position (except if you just need a draw to win the Super-GM tournament, but a few of us are)

lol
you know what's funny? people not getting a joke :D
How facetious is this thread??
GM rated 1431??
"went on to win" means 1, Kh2 Rxh5 mate. Right?
Well if he/she was a titled player, they would of had an official title besides their username, the fact that your opponent had GM in their username does not verify his/her claim, you should of checked chess.com's database on titled players online and what tourneys this "GM" played in. However many members "joke" around with such titles, some have it as their avatar, try not to be fooled so easily.

It seems a lot of chess players don't have a sense of humor

Wow thanks for clarifying this!
A GM offered me a draw! Attached is a screen shot. I went on to win but maybe I should have accepted it?
