However, it's a tad bit hypocritical to start off your blogging day by taking my attempts to tell people when I'm going off topic, (which I am doing to try and improve other's online enjoyment, so they can go to the next post) misjudging *Facepalm*, talking about the attempts to correct the multiple u/n's to prevent trolling,going off-topic yourself, and then repeatedly saying it's because you want to stay on topic and that you care. I was trying, and failing, to make a joke to you. And, correct again, it doesn't matter how long one's been on the boards. It *is* irrelevant to *your* blogging experience. Last, you are correct in saying you don't care whether I forgive go or not, and that's it's irrelevant. If you truly want to make online blogging a better experience for everyone because you care, perhaps caring enough to find out what one is talking about before commenting and/or criticizing it would be a good place to start. It might be useful to you to ask the meaning of some things before criticizing them online. Perhaps asking your fifteen-year-old is a good idea. It is also used as a way the highlight the word, as in *Palmcheek*, when the word is used as a one word sentence. I also don't want to use all caps, because I don't wish to be perceived as shouting, when I am not.
Third, the * is used to emphasize a point, because I am on a phone that does not have the capability of either italics or underlining. Which you yourself used after chastising me for using *Facepalm* in the first place. Which was a joke, by the way, as evidenced by the 😉 after it. So, then, your assumption in telling me that I'm impolite for using a phrase you don't even know the meaning of is in itself just as condescending to me as what you are accusing me of. Secondly, your post addressed the meaning of *Facepalm*. If I am in error, and I don't think I am, then mea culpa. If you read your first post, posted on several threads, one could only deduct that your comments were directed at *me*, as they addressed many comments that I made. My oh my, the things children use to converse on the internet. I am going to consult with my fifteen year old daughter tonight to get a clear understanding of the proper usage of these ****'s. Oh, finally I liberally used these *** things but really don't understand what they mean and the need to use them. Maybe, I'm just a part of the "we" mindset who cares. Hey, maybe it's *even* someone positive (wow, positive not negative? – imagine that!). And I must say again, that I really don't *care* who I am perceived to be. However, it's so hard to tell what that meant, peering through a computer monitor.Īnyways, hopefully we can strike a balance here and mutually respect what each other has to say. Telling someone you don't know, in advance, that you will forgive them strikes me as a *condescending* thing to say to someone. I *appreciate* your kind offer of it to me but I politely *don't* need or want it. Well, that's just my approach, life to me is all about learning.Īnd I dare say in my *most* very polite way, that the last thing I *seek* is your forgiveness. I prefer sharing my views but *much* more importantly *learning* from what other's have to say about a subject. I'm, *personally* not seeking acceptance or friendship. Does it matter? Is there some type of *initiation* rite of passage one needs to complete before being *part* of these forums? I am here to share my opinions and would much prefer to stay *OT* – on topic. 😉 I may be perceived as to *being* new to these boards, and perhaps that's true and perhaps it's not. I would *hate* to invoke the wrath of banasy on me. Maybe, we are *all* posers in this world? Eh?Īlso I sincerely appreciate your *invitation* to address you directly, as I am currently doing. I've hear my teenage children use that word very frequently and it always has *perplexed* me on what it *really* means. But, maybe it's my *misunderstanding* of the word poser. I think it would be *very* appropriate to say again that the vast majority of folks here are posers. Which, again I *find* very funny due to the way these forums are setup. Obviously, you *were* calling me a poser. Now, we can also *discuss* the vapid *use* of the word poser. The word *pretend* is a *complete* oxymoron when it comes to these forums. Who knows, I *could* be someone from CNN, I *could* just be a independent consultant, I *could* be someone at FB, I *could* be Jesus. I'm not trying to *pretend* to be anyone and does it matter if I was? I'd say, quite frankly, the majority of folks on here are, in some way, *pretending* to be someone. I too *find* it funny that you can reach a *conclusion* so quickly about me.
