Should I actually respond to that, TehBorken ?
I have a point and you don't want to admit it. It's sad.

You are resorting to the sad, sad stratagem of pretending to misunderstand my meaning which can be funny if done in good faith and jokingly, but not if used to ignore the point the other person is making and to appear to be right anyway.

As for the picture, was there some problem with the link to it ?

Only if you feel like it.

Okay, fine. What's your point? I'll try to respond in as direct a fashion as possible.

Which picture?  Do you mean the picture of the girl with the shirt? No, the link worked fine.

MM, I think the problem you're having, is that you make comments in a manner that is almost antagonistic.  Then you procede to disect the responses, over-analyze them and criticize the poster that made them.  A 'mature conversation' involves the understanding that not everyone shares your point of view, but can enjoy talking about it none-the-less.

  Try not getting so pissy when everybody doesn't agree with you.....you might enjoy yourself a little bit more.  Just a friendly bit of advice.

In short : that picture is actually very insulting to that girl and has been made to be so.

WHO CARES? SHUT THE f*ck UP ALREADY.

P.C.... - aptly chosen nick - that's not the problem I'm having. That's the problem YOU are having. Do you see the nuance ? I'll admit that I often respond in a rather straightforward way, but never do I actually insult anyone, which can't be said of some of those who don't like my replies. Did you notice that, P.C. ?

And I sincerely would like some of you people who think they are justified in complaining about my replies to, for once, look at their own ways of responding. Maybe they will discover that there is some subject for improvement as well.

And lastly... it's not about someone not sharing my point of view at all... if you thought that, you are way, way off.  It's all about the intentions behind what someone is saying.


And P.C. really couldn't help him/herself, and wrote:

Some bad perception on your part... but BAD !
When I get pissy, that's when people get nasty just for the heck of it, particularly if someone joins in and thinks he/she will have a bit of fun by pummelling me around, so to speak.

Do you know what YOUR problem is, P.C. ?
It's the fact that you expect from me (or anyone else for that matter) to think you're friendly - when you're absolutely not. Just displaying the usual overbearing attitude, most commonly shared in these parts with a number of like-minded people.




Now - maybe I can go back to posting about things I want to actualy post about...

You think so ?
As in the case of that other poster - maybe you should take your own advice... :)
No offense meant, of course.

I think P.C. is friendly. I don't see her taking people to task, being pedantically argumentative, or starting anything. And I certainly don't find her overbearing.

  P.C. was the name of my mama kitty.  It stands for Pussy Cat.....so you're correct there....very aptly chosen nick.  I'M not HAVING a problem.....so, no, I don't see the nuance.

P.C. is a 'herself'.  My comments were offered truly as a bit of friendly advice. You have the right to not accept it.

Do you know what YOUR problem is, P.C. ?

  Again, I don't HAVE a problem.  I expect nothing from you nor anyone else for that matter.  It's your right to have the opinion that I'm unfriendly and overbearing.

Now - maybe I can go back to posting about things I want to actualy post about...

  Carry on !  (or as my hubby would say....carry on as if you were normal)

TehBorken, would you actually seriously consider banning someone for saying what he said ?
Strangely enough, I feel I have to come to that SHADDAP bloke's defence. What he said may just prove his emotional and intellectual immaturity, but I think in no way did he really do anything worse than what some of the regulars here did at some moment or other relating to taking offense at the position I was defending and trying to shut me up.

OK OK, he posted in all caps... but I never heard this was a crime serious enough to get a ban... :)

I must say... now THAT's original ! :)

Your hubby's wisdom is proverbial.

Now, with all that put aside... do you mind ?...

P.C.

Do I mind ?

  Do I mind what ?  You've got me stumped there.

Lol, nope, it was just an attempt to get the dork to behave. No, it would take a lot more than that for me to ban someone.

Whatever spins yer gears.

Fine with me.

I dunno...I take a dim view of anyone from Capslockistan.
