Just walking by to say hello again.
« on: November 08, 2010, 01:04:47 pm »
Long time, no see, no speak. Don't know if anybody here will remember or know me, but I was going through my old e-mails and was reminded of you guys. I do think about this place (specifically DrewKaree) anytime Glenn Beck is ranting about how we're going down the sewers, but if I was on here all the time, it would mute the nostalgia, no? Anyway, besides rambling, just thought I'd say hello.

Lol, yup that would be I. Sillier time in my life, no?  :lol

Oh yeah, I remember DrewKaree!

I remember you as well. Parliaments. Something like that. Glad to see all is well.

Hey Floyd! I think you may have been a little before my time, but I know your nostalgic feeling. I was a regular he around 2006 and 2007, (if I remember right). Long story short, I left because life hit me hard in the balls. I just needed drop off the face of the earth for a while. Now, life is hitting me even harder, but at least I grew some brass balls, so I think I'm OK. About a month ago I came back because I really missed the group here. I see a bunch of regulars here are gone now, or at least not regulars anymore. Others are still here and the same as always. I'm trying to give it another go around here, we will see how long I stay.

As for as what I remember the most? The very tragic comedy know as Harpal. It was cool to see everyone rally together over a lousy scammer and at least run him out of town in our "own unique way".

Are you thinking about staying around? It would be cool if you did.

What a good boy.  I wish all of you would take a good look at Malenko and try to be more like him.  Gold star for really going the extra mile for rules.  You just be sure to raise you hand high every time you see somebody breaking them.

I was both joking and making him aware (OMG A SMILIE FACE WTF IS THAT!?!?). I'll turn up my dooshbag knob and try to be a little more like you and come off with a "condescending know it all tone" next time all while trying to belittle him. Those are tough shoes to fill and I dont think Im quite ready to sit on mount dooshmore with you, Xaiou, Chad, and PBJ....but for you I can try.

you know, when schmokes posts, you should treat it just like, say,  if you're on the bus, and some freaky diseased vagrant sitting near you farts.  Just hold your breath and ignore it, because seriously...do you want to start an argument with someone like that who's only doing it for the reaction?

It wasn't just for the reaction, I promise.   ;D  I legitimately find forum police offensive.  Like . . . A#1, don't go through life letting every little thing bother you.  People are different.  Not everyone has to be exactly like you.  And ignoring the little things is really not that difficult.  And B#2, if it offends you so much . . . there's a report to moderator button right there.  Let them decide if it's something that needs dealt with.  Raising your hand and telling teacher in front of the whole class is what gets you a gold star.

So I didn't really want a reaction so much as to actually suggest he stop being that guy.

Pot, kettle.  Kettle, pot.  You're now the one being that guy.  If you don't like his post, ignore it.  Like you said, it's not that difficult.

Heh . . . two wrongs don't make a right.   ;D

Seriously, though, what I'm doing isn't exactly the same.  Malenko wasn't breaking any rules.  He was just being annoying.  I can't very well report that to the moderator.  Making fun of him seemed like by far the best option.

Well, there are always those people out there who report to the moderator if someone is just being annoying or rude. Heck, I'm guessing you probably get reported to to the moderator on a weekly basis, schmokes.  :lol
