Gender: | Mark I'm a coffee addict. I love coffee. Now I'm gong to ignore the shut up ho, bitch BTW, I agree with Anuj (and thanks for the backup). You need to dispence with the bitch, ho, goddammit and all that. It's a little adolescent for this board. Last edited by EricT; 09-28-2006 at 07:36 AM. |

| I talk the same way on the shoutbox, no one ever said anything then. This is a message board, not a cult. Don't take things so literal. I rarely post but I always talk in the shoutbox, in fact I've talked with all of you. You should know my personality a little by now. I joke 99.9% of the time so NEVER take ANY offense to what I say. I usually use smilies, I didn't. My appologies. This is why the internet sucks because without the use of a smiley the whole impression of a sentence is changed :(. |

Gender: | Look I'm not mad but this is a MATURE message board with a good atmosphere. You're right. It's not a cult. It's also not a playground or street corner. Anuj was offended. I was just irritated. But you can't modulate peoples responses to what they deem as offensive behavior. It's not your job to explain to people how they should react to what you say. Their reactions belong to them, not you. And the forum and shoutbox are two separate things. I've rarely spoken to you and I don't know your personality. I will say only one more thing about this. When someone goes to the trouble of making an imformative post on your behalf....shut up, ho, is a rude response. If it's a joke it's a disrepectful and unappreciative one. You don't have to take peoples advice but you should try to recognize that many people put a lot of work and though into their responses. Do you think I care about caffeine? Or I care whether you drink coffee? No, I posted that info out of the goodness of my heart, not to "show off knowledge". There are times for jokes and there are times when jokes arent appropriate. When someone tries to help just because they want to help then your response just may be deemed a little rude, joke or not. If you can't see that then I would think you'd have a hard time in daily life. I'm not here to teach you how to behave but the lack of smack talk is one of the reasons I'm on this forum and not others. BTW, let me make something clear. I am not railing against general good natured ribbing. I do it myself all the time. There's nothing wrong with it but there is a time and place for everything. If I offend someone, I just apologize and move on. Last edited by EricT; 09-28-2006 at 01:19 PM. |
