Fighting over Yadkin? There's nothing to fight over... pretty much everybody knows Yadkaren is an obnoxious dickhead.

Surely you meant to say laughing at Yadkin.

Doug is a friend, but I think he may cross the annoying line. Hope he doesn't. Hope he gets help. Hope he stops being a drama beacon onthe forums, too.

How do people allow themselves to become annoyed on a forum, though? If someone annoys you (general you, not personal you) just move on.

I know, right? All the PMs I get with people being annoyed by you and I keep telling them (in the words of Taylor Swift) "Shake it off"

I tell them to be patient. They'll get their samn dandwich....chill.


kidding of course...I know they are never getting their sandwich.

No shit! If you're annoyed by someone, it's because you actively clicked and read their post. It's a pretty easy thing to NOT do.

Not true. Let me paint a picture. You're at a party and having a discussion with three other adults and suddenly two screaming kids come in and are running around between you and listening to your conversation and repeating what you say or commenting when they have no concept of the conversation and don't belong to any of the adults talking.

Would it annoy you?

Why do I have an expectation on me, to ignore them butting in, but there is no expectation to keep their meaningless noise to themselves?

Scroll through the exchanges and review how this shit gets started. Maybe not EVERY TIME, but most times it is an interjection of bullshit into an actual exchange between members.

I think that's different. In the party scenario, you'll passively hear the BS. On a forum, you still have to make the effort to read the annoying posts.

Speaking of, I think something may have happened to chas

More like, you’re walking down Main Street, and there are three bars to choose from, you know the one bar called boundaries, has no boundaries, and there’s that one guy who over shares, but yet every day you walk in there to go have a drink. Why? Because all your friends are there, it’s lively conversation, there is interesting side talk, it’s one of those bars when you walk in you hear and sense the energy, you think this is a ****ing cool place to talk and hang out

Because it is

So then you go over to the other bar, and there’s a group of five or six people who are talking about the other guy, and that annoys you. The third bar is the quiet one with Dave PL, that one is always open and empty

Quit trying to fix us. Take your "journey" find yourself. Go to Tibet, Iceland, whatever it takes, Send pictures, Stop the ****ing preaching. If I want that I'll take a short drive and listen to the thieving Joel Osteen.

Adjust your meds. You've gone manic again.

Dave PL is waiting for you at the third bar
