> [@living\_in\_hell](#): > > This is a “look at me” moment? What makes you so sure you know how old I am? Your posts are my cite. Seriously, I thought about not posting what I wrote. “Go easy on him,” I thought, “He’s just a kid. He’ll grow out of it.” But in the long run, I figure I wouldn’t be doing you any favors by not pointing out you’re living out a cliche. If you were to read your posts ten years from now, you’ll cringe. Do yourself a favor and dial it down a notch. And if, despite all appearances, you’re not a teenager - then my advice is claim to be a teenager. It’s one thing to act like a typical teenager when you are a teenager. If you’re still acting like a typical teenager when you’re thirty, you have a problem. ---

> [@living\_in\_hell](#): > > Clarification : not being snarky to LN or you, but…is there some rule that we have to act our age on the Internet? Could it be possible that I’m actually quite mature in real life but came here to have fun? But… see that line under the logo? “Fighting Ignorance” means we’re bringing more than just being immature to the discussions here. I’d suggest moving over to [“Mundane Pointless Stuff I Must Share (MPSIMS)”](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/forumdisplay.php?f=4) for, well, pointlessness. ---

He must be a wonderful person and handsome to no doubt. Also he once told a story about lamps & sunglasses, it was really quite funny. ---

OP is a pretty obvious sock/troll, IMO. The wide-eyed “I can’t believe the _cruelty!_” simply can’t be real. > [@Anyone else getting tired of Una's delusions?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/anyone-else-getting-tired-of-unas-delusions/616716/123): > > I’m blown away by this forum–I spent years posting on a forum with no moderators and its got nothing on this place. Anyone who has spent more than ten minutes on the Internet has seen far worse than any post made in the Pit in the past five years. I call bullshit. Besides, he latched onto Frank way too quickly. It usually takes at least a couple of months to realize what a toolbag Frank is. 😛 ---

If you simply think that the more drivel you **post** , the better you’ll find your way, not so much. I see your point, but given the basic realities of interpersonal functioning, how do I learn about people without direct interaction? Correlation does not equal causation; observing others interact is informative but really not indicative of how they will interact with me.
