Here I was trying to make you crack up and you cracked me up... again. Dammit. So much for my kneeslapper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to be Exhibit heckin A of this right now: Quote {Generically formatted spamvert for a DJ set posted in a group} [17:02] Him (dudebro): I'd love to come . but I can't lol [17:03] Her (mrsdudebro): you just did [17:03] Him (dudebro😞 HAHA hthat is true [17:04] Her (mrsdudebro): and not just once if i may add [17:04] Him (dudebro😞 twice [17:04] Him (dudebro😞 to what your 5? No one wants to see this. Please stop. But the thing is, I'm posting it here. I'm not talking to either of these two people and asking them to cut out on the excessive PDA. I'm just venting about something that I personally find annoying, in the full knowledge that at least two people don't find it annoying, and that I have no way of forcing them to change their behaviour. (Side note: I actually know these two, they're actually nice people, even if a little 'first boyfriend/girlfriend' for my tastes. So I actually stand half a chance of getting them to change if I wanted to risk the confrontation... but I don't. So I vent here, then move on with my day.) 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Venting here won't change things? * Next you're going to be telling me that life isn't fair! *Actually venting here has changed a few things. One was the creating of a new thread for raw screenshots.

Iryna Morningstar Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 I have several, but the one that really gets on my nerves is the profile pick that boils down to, "I haven't actually read the ToS but if you IM me that's enough consent for me to share your IMs with whomever I please."

I don't know why YOU have the ridiculous need to once again name names. You didn't get it entirely right, because you're just not that bright. So why you have to pull other people in specifically? Probably something in the DMS-5. My post was a peeve about SL and on topic and not any more specific than Queen Bully Bee, ring a bell? Concept. Edited June 5, 2020 by Gatogateau can't effing type!

Dano Seale Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 (edited) Peeve: Tuning in late and finding one of my all time favourite American* types in the form of Blake "stolen valor!" USMC (had to have been)", had joined the battlefield! However, No matter how fast I read through all his "I'm a vet' you need to kiss my ass!" BS, Kristen Linden was always seconds ahead of me furiously deleting every time my cursor headed for the "quote" button! Very frustrating....but probably very good timing also! 😆 * - Highly dubious whether he actually was American due to his usage of our "cheque" rather than "check"!

Yeah, there was more to discuss in that thread, and lots of information presented I'd like to view again. Why are some threads just locked while others are disappeared?
