Hey guys,…I really didn’t intend to start anything here. I was just stumbling around, looking for the lightswitch and someone made me feel very welcome and not the lameass I felt like. If you guys have something personal going on, I’m sorry for throwing gas on it. In any case, I want to thank both of you for welcoming me.
He really is Canadian!
Yeah! Terribly courteous.
Nah, I don’t think there is a big backlog of animosity other than there is a large contingent of dopers who dislike flirting and are getting increasingly sick of how it is creeping into threads which are not flirt threads.
Don’t sweat it. No matter how you act, you’re going to piss off somebody 'round here. There’re just too many contrasting personalities posting here for everyone to get along with everyone. Do whatever the hell you like, so long as it’s within board rules. If it bothers someone, that’s their problem, not yours.
Unless it’s me that it bothers. If I say to stop doing something, you damn well better listen!
Unless you’re SolGrundy, in which case you probably already know 126 ways to make Miller shut up and start moaning incoherently…
You didn’t do anything wrong. Seems to me a ridiculous number of threads have been derailed lately by various means.
Welcome!
Kythereia is the Goddess of Hallmark Cards?
I dint know that.
Kewl.
[hands Case Sensitive another bucket]
Oy, Gommsn?
…SMOOOOOCH!!!
[flees, snickering]
oh, and–what Miller said
Well, I’ve been working a lot of overtime lately, so we’re falling behind. We’re only up to 78. Well, 79 if you count black and green olives seperatly.
Hee hee.
Good rant Case Sensitive. You have saved this thread from descending into a flirtacious pool of banal vomit.
Oh, brag brag brag. stumbles off in a huff, muttering misanthropically
Is this banal vomit too, InvidiousCourgette (and Case Sensitive)?
:: curious ::
:: taps banal vomit meter ::
Yup. YBVMMMV.
Indeed. And I’m partially to blame. I’ve been flirting more lately. God knows why, because normally I hate flirting. But I even contributed to a Pit-thread-closing because of my flirting. And it kind of disgusts me. I’ve realized it on my own, so there’s no need to stage an intervention or anything. I promise to stop flirting, so as not to gross out myself and countless other Dopers.
A-bloody-men. {and no, gommsn, this isn’t directed at you in the slightest: from what I’ve read of your posts so far, you seem like a really nice bloke}. Have you been in MPSIMS lately? Flirting in joke “Mad Scientist” threads, flirting in sodding chess games, for Christ’s sake - every thread I open seems to contain gratuitous tee-hee come-ons, almost always by the same culprit {and yes, Kythereia, I am talking about you}, and now the fuzzie-wuzzies have crept into the Pit, the once safe haven of vitriol and bile, and it’s pissing me off no end. Stop. Bloody. Flirting. Woman.
Ok boys and girls, I think I’m getting the picture. If I ever do have anythig that properly belongs in The Pit, I’ll be a right prick about it. I’ll swear and curse, question everyones parental legitimacy and generally be a proper bastard.
Now, having stated my honorable intentions, I have what I thinh is referred to as a “slight hijack”.Case Sensitive , by reading your posts, I detect a strong English or British flavor.(Perhaps Aussie?) If I guess right, I have a question for you that might be brought up in a more suitable forum. Please enlighten me>
Oh, and Thanx to everyone, you guys are a hoot!
Case Sensitive is a Kiwi but I am sure he will manage to forgive you.
Barely. Only barely.
Wow! Sorry! Flashbacks to when someone would refer to my grandfather as an Englishman. Excuse me but he was a WELSHMAN! Goes to show you what can happen when people ass u me. Anyway I had a question about British comedy I was going to try out on you. Perhaps a better idea would be in MPSIMS, open to everyone.
Oh,BTW, Frank Nobilo is my favorite guy on The Golf Channel!
suck up, suck up
Case Sensitive, I don’t know what your personal problem with me is, but please knock it off. I apologized, I said I wouldn’t flirt in the future, now please quit with the insults–okay?
