Yet I notice other people come here and in less than a month, with just 50 posts or so - and they get positively roasted…I mean Pancho Cuevas’ carne asado con chile colorado in Laredo in July roasted.
Am I a lame-ass fucker or what? Am I such a hack that I can’t even get flamed around here?
I want to get some licks in before this turns into a pay-site, and it gets gentrified to the point that “You are a right uncouth cad and a pusillanimous lout” is the strongest abuse you are liable to receive here.
At best I should get a bad tongue lashing for starting a narcissistic “ohh look at me, lookie lookie thread” for a kickoff.
I flippin’ HATE vanity threads. If you want attention so bad, why don’t you try to improve the quality of your posts? I looked at 2 of those threads you linked to. Why should anyone bother to flame you for those? People only flame others when they get riled up. So, apparently you’ve failed to garner any attention at all, be it negative or positive.
Well, I should say that you have failed to garner attention up to now, because now you’ve got my attention, and I think you’re an idiot because you started this thread.
Sorry, I just don’t get flames much, either. But my problem is my openminded approach doesn’t lend much to shrap criticsim. Thus, I’m often invisible to the guy/gal who makes a boneheaded statement (as you were inquiring).
I agree with Green Been, I’ve been here less than a month, and the idea of a “vanity post” seems ridiculous.
But then, the content herin supports the idea of this type of post, in the first place. Oops…see there I go again, taking both sides of the issue. Damn!
I’m entirely with Green Bean - you failed to garner attention because you didn’t merit it. The fact that you even posted this marks you out as pathetic. Do you really want to be flamed or do you just want people to notice you? And do you really want people to notice you only in the context of you being lame enough to beg for attention?
Wait…I just realized something…we’re all posting to this thread, so this person IS receiving support, and attention.
Second…I screwed up yet again, and mistyped a ton of words…I gotta stop and check my posts before I submit.
Anyway. Jaimest, I don’t know you either, but I’m not going to tell you to “FUCK OFF”, or anything like that. In fact, I’ll do the opposite, and tell you how wonderful and how much a beautiful person you are. Likewise, how fortunate you are to live in a society that allows you such benefits, as to complain about not being complained about. Obviously, you are living in great times, even during such dark days - as compared to the lives of others. Life is great, and you should identify with the bright night stars above you.
I wish you well in trying to get “flamed” (if this is what you seek), because true happiness only comes from the inner reaches of our heart, and only YOU can find that special warm place you so desire.
Since I love giving people advice (solicited or otherwise), I will offer a few suggestions to get your posts noticed/flamed.
There are a few hotwords on these boards that always get flamed. I believe you probably know which they are.
Make outrageous assertions, and don’t bother researching them; post them as facts rather than opinions.
Say something disparaging about Opal.
Say something disparaging about other old favourites. But there are no cliques here.
Abortion. Child behaviour. Declawing. American Military. Foreskins. Gun control. If you really want to nail the dismount, mention all of these in one post.
jaimest
this is not a flame , I mean this in a nice way but nobody is going to flame someone just because they post like a crying little girl.People come here for support , if you want to live your life by posting your rants that nobody really gives a fuck about, like that thing about mules .Who are we to say get a life ! you worthless piece of shit ! this is a caring community full of love even for losers like yourself that still live with their parents
And I fully know I don’t inspire much online emotion to begin with…as I am normally sticking to hot button topics like estuaries and pronouns, and not usually begging to be noticed. So I wondered what all this Pit stuff was about. I had no idea it was such sacred ground, not to be profaned by mindless toss-off threads that aren’t even (gasp…shudder) SPELL CHECKED.
And if that makes me the most vain, self absorbed, betwetting, pile-carpet humping, waste of cells to ever post here - then I just have to live with that.

Jaimest, I love you, man."

Oh, Jet Black, that was BEAUTIFULLY said, dear. You took the words right out of my mouth. So, baby. How YOU doin’.
Jaimest, hon, I don’t understand why you want to get flamed either. Isn’t it much more fun to make love rather than war? Spread love. Go out there and smile at someone, or greet them and ask them how they’re doing. Believe me that’ll make you feel much better about yourself than some silly ol’ flamin’ from a bunch of folks you don’t know and who don’t know you.
So sorry to hi-jack your thread Mr. Jaimest, but it seems an honest person warrents more attention at the moment.
celestina sez:
I’m doing okay…and you? I’m glad the words struck a chord for you. Though I hope you do understand, I’m not always like this. Don’t want you to get the wrong impression. Hah!
Still, nice meeting you. I’m sure we’ll run into each other again.
Okay, Jaimest you can have your thread back again.
