why? it's not like we are getting paid for it :) -- nm - peglegpete Mar 10, 12:57
Think -- nm - IBM Mar 10, 12:56
Ohhh, think *THEN* post .... wait. Isn't it the other way around? - Steve Martin si Mar 10, 12:54
don't you think I try? -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:54 62
- FWIW, I think you do. You flubbed, but acknowledged it. - musubi Mar 10, 12:58 12
  - Well, this time, as in many, the pile on was what got her to realize it. - Spawn Mar 10, 13:07
  - I think she knew. she even said she was trying not inflame. so like, why post and take a chance? -- nm - amanda "reduced service" jones Mar 10, 12:58 10
    - I know how you feel about loosi. It's very clear in the way you post to each other. - musubi Mar 10, 13:00 9
      - well yeah. but I would feel the same way about anyone who was disingenous in their posts - amanda "reduced service" jones Mar 10, 13:02 8
        
        Silly amanda, ST rushes to defend loosi but ignores when she is on the offensive. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 13:09 7
        
        This is utter BS. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:14 1
        
        Maybe you just miss it. - Spawn Mar 10, 13:16
        
        pretty much no one is defending her here. -- nm - Reagen Mar 10, 13:13 3
        
        moose? -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 13:15 2
        
        I've defended no one. I've said *both* sides need to drop it. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:18
        
        even if you count Hawaiians, that's a pretty weak standard for defence - Reagen Mar 10, 13:17
        
        don't I know. I just want parity. and if parity is we have separate sides of the playground, ok. - amanda "reduced service" jones Mar 10, 13:11
- "Oh, an abortion quip about his sister. That will be the remark to win the day." - Reagen Mar 10, 12:56 6
  - Max is right. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 12:56
  - you're asking a blind man to copy edit. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:56 4
    - Let's just go back in time to "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all" Like, if you, who admit you can't tell, think there might - Amy Mar 10, 13:01 1
      - yeah, true. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 13:01
    - Then find out what the equivalent of accessibility option are. -- nm - Reagen Mar 10, 12:58 1
      - I need something. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 13:01
- Honestly...all it takes is to finish your post, then read it. Chances are, you'll catch these before hitting "Post This Message. -- nm - Jim Mar 10, 12:55 28
  - Does anyone *REALLY* think she was advocating abortion as a valid method? - musubi Mar 10, 12:59 13
    - Actually, I didn't think she was advocating abortion at all. It felt like a shot at Dawson to me. - Jim Mar 10, 13:00 12
      - I interpreted it as a quip. A wildly inappropriate one, but a quip nonetheless. - Reagen Mar 10, 13:03 5
        
        I would add... "You know there are a handful of people with extremely low tolerances for your posting, so pick your spot." - Name Withheld By Request Mar 10, 13:06 4
        
        Indeed. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:20
        
        This is very solid. Posting that to Reagen, musubi, Andie, etc...probably not that big of a deal. - Jim Mar 10, 13:13
        
        this too. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 13:07
        
        also sound advice. -- nm - Reagen Mar 10, 13:07
      - Exactly. If she had just posted the word on it's own, it would not have came across so bad. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 13:02 5
        
        With all due respect, it doesn't read that way to someone who isn't looking for it. - musubi Mar 10, 13:03 4
        
        And your IM says it all. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 13:11 3
        
        Yes. She stuck her foot in her mouth. She apologized. Let. It. Go. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:15 2
        
        Then why are you still saying, "It didn't read that way."? -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 13:17 1
        
        Because it didn't to me, and I'm not picking sides. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:21
  - *ponders* actually, I wonder if she just hits "enter", like I do? -- nm - Beryllium Mar 10, 12:56 12
    - As evidenced by both spelling and content, I sure don't. (nm) - musubi Mar 10, 13:01
    - maybe you need a popup confirmation box for some people. "Are you sure you want to post this?" -- nm - sycor Mar 10, 12:57 9
      - note: this was not a poke at loosi specifically. there are few people that need it. - sycor Mar 10, 12:58 7
        
        *shifts uncomfortably* -- nm - con_carne Mar 10, 13:01
        
        Again, *one million* words. -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 12:59 5
        
        "Are you sure you want to post this now, or do you have another paragraph in you?" -- nm - box Mar 10, 13:00
        
        you can still make. just use different words. -- nm - sycor Mar 10, 13:00 3
        
        What's the url for thesaurus.com? -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 13:01 2
        
        It says on the inside label of the Best Analogy Ever T-shirt -- nm - prayformojo Mar 10, 13:04
        
        why are you looking up dinosaurs? -- nm - sycor Mar 10, 13:03
      - honesetly, it would help. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:58
    - This is your house. -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 12:57
  - I do, and it doesn't. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:56
- Loosi, since wiggie is unavailable for comment, let me say on her behalf -- politely but firmly -- that you messed up there. - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 12:55 11
  - I did mess up. Jack, I'm sorry. please folks, I know what a fucking moron I am. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:56 10
    - And seriously...stop with the "I'm a moron" "I'm stupid" posts. Everyone here, including you, know that not to be the case. -- nm - Jim Mar 10, 12:57 4
      - considering how often I put my foot in it, I think I am. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 12:57 3
        
        i'm late and not trying to rile but one quick helpful observation: - TFox Mar 10, 13:16
        
        boneheaded, maybe, but stupid or a moron? no way! :) -- nm - znufrii Mar 10, 12:58 1
        
        whatever word you want. -- nm - loosilu Mar 10, 13:02
    - Cool. Let's all drop it and start some sort of massive Pixar quote thread to ease the tension. -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 12:56 4
      - You are a sad strange little man. -- nm - Jim Mar 10, 12:58 3
        
        I am hiding under your porch because I love you. -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 12:58 2
        
        Wait a minute...was my post a quote? Who knew? nm - Jim Mar 10, 12:59 1
        
        Up yours, Lotso. -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 13:00
- Do you want a serious answer? -- nm - Spawn Mar 10, 12:55
I'll never get to a million that way. -- nm - David, Techno-Optimist Mar 10, 12:53 2
- word. nm - sycor Mar 10, 12:55
