I'm not giving up my seat

meanOldLady, you did see the other people complaining about you, right?

Do you finally understand why I called you on the way you state your opinions? Because anyone who doesn’t see the difference in those statements is a shitswilling cum-faced dog-kissing dolphin-hater. Not talking about you, of course. Don’t get butthurt. Please. And I have no friends, so I will be here waiting. Sad. Alone. Sniffling in my hanky.

Keep reading.

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Set in a magical fantasy world where trolls come to a nasty end when exposed to sunlight.

People trolling dyslexics online is the equivalent of people bashing people in wheelchairs in the real world.

Did you burn to ash, a la “Intereview with the Vampire?”

vinyl Turnip wins the thread!

Fuck you and all the other pretentious pricks on this site (there’s tons of ya) who continually go after people’s grammar. This is nothing more than the intellectual version of internet tough guy, and you would never have the balls to do this to someone in person. You know what she means, so let it go fuckn’ jack-ass.

Looking forward to the smarmy response with corrections of course.

Go fuck yourself.

Apropos of nothing… Anonymous User, I know some other people think your a troll and I really have no opinion of that one way or another, since I haven’t interacted with you beyond this thread. That said, it’s admirable how you’ve come full circle here. Your willingness to understand when you’ve crossed a line and the readiness you’ve shown to try to grow and understand things outside your norm has been refreshing. If you truly are a 15 year old and continue along this path of broadening your worldview, being open to constructive criticism and owning up to your mistakes, then you’ll have a good jump on your future and a well-rounded head on your shoulders.

And that’s my Hallmark moment contribution to this trainwreck. As I am easily duped upon occasion, I’ll just leave now before my mocking begins. Please return to your nightly skewering.

“Should of” is such a common mistake that I had no idea it was caused by dyslexia in this particular case. I’m still not convinced it is since it is her only error like it, but I will accept her explanation and apologize. I don’t want to be a jerk.

Okay, I really don’t care if I’m a jerk, but my continued posting privileges depend on my not being one. But if I have to walk with my bad back and painful knees those lazy assholes in wheelchairs should walk, too. :wink:

Agreed.

Was a half-assed apology good enough?

Yeah, it is impressive, and we should remark on it. Good on you, dude. (Tips hat to Anonymous User) Now go be good, ok?

And where is MeanOldLady? Do you think I hurt her feelings?

Um, yeah. Haven’t you noticed all the posts about how mean MeanOldLady is? That ain’t no lie. Sworn at me before, she has.

And we haven’t even touched on how old she is.

There are other errors. There have been many errors. I have tried to catch as many as possible, many have been fixed in edits. Some I have not been able to catch. This morning I saw a post where individually was spelled individuallly. Repeated characters? Yet another symptom.

I doubt you actually care, but rather are just entertaining yourself by messing with people online. But feel free to keep googling, and gasp! Pay attention.

Oh. I thought you were referring to mademoiselle. Never mind.

Also, thanks faithfool.

Age is relative

I hate the first rows in the type of theater in the picture - the screen is positioned way too high (to accommodate the rear high rows). In the first rows you are indeed craning your neck to see, which is why nobody was sitting in them. In the rear rows, you’re way too far away and high up, and the screen is way too small. In fact, there are only a few optimal rows there that have just the right viewing-angle to distance-from-screen ratio, otherwise you’re either too low and close or too far away and high. (At least for my favorite viewing distance, which is normally about 1/3 of the way back, and middle of the row.) Whoever designed it should be punished. In this type of theater, people generally squish in to eliminate the buffer seats since so many rows are lousy and everyone wants the few good ones.

Don’t tell anybody, but I do care and am adding this to my list of conditions that don’t seem connected at first glance but look more and more like they are, like depression, ADD/ADHD, and OCD, especially as they are related to alcoholism. But yeah, I did start out entertaining myself.

And I appreciate how you have learned to submit short posts. There’s a future here for you yet, kid.
