I'll post any way I wish to sissy you don't like it just ignore me.

Oh, believe sissy when he tells you he does ignore you, FP. sissy Normally only reads posts by members that are IQ-weight proportionate. The only reason that sissy even opened this thread is because someone PMed him to tell him that he was being bad-mouthed by you here.

quote:

I don't tell you not to be a sissy or not to wear your sissy clothes. don't tell me how to speak.

Well there is a difference, FP. Being a sissy is a kink and attacking someone's kink is in violation of the TOS. In contrast, sissy has never told you how to speak since, until this message board supports voice synthesis technology, how you speak is irrelevant and of no interest to sissy.

quote:

If I wanted to be rude and snot nosed like you I could say a buncha things disparaging your likes to be a sissy and post pics with horridly frilly maids outfits. Which I have not.

And if sissy wanted to stoop to your level he could call you a stupid brainless moron ... but, of course, he would never do that.

quote:

I've never said a thing against you, ...

Well, you've been making up for lost time during the last few days since you posted that statement here because sissy has read a few posts in the last two days where you have gone out of your way to fire off an insult against him. Presumably you interpreted the fact that sissy allowed you to have the last word on this thread because you seemed to be a little upset and he didn't want to hurt your feelings as some kind of a sign of weakness on sissy's part. Apparently, you now think it is open season on him. Once again, this is proof that a policy of appeasement never works ... [:(]

... and you have been snooty to me ever since the shaving cream cum sugestion. When I said I don't even like it why would I want to shave with it. Since that post you seemed to have made it your personal vendeta to be nasty.

Like all self-obsessed people on these boards you appear to be suffering from a major dose of paranoia, FP. sissy Doesn't even remember the post you are talking about so he certainly didn't take offence at it. Maybe you intended that he be insulted by it and he just shrugged it off or didn't even notice it ... sissy apologizes for that, FP, and starting with this thread, he promises that he will try to be more thin-skinned and overly-suspicious whenever he reads your posts from now on. sissy Would hate to think he completely overlooked all the nuance and flavor of one of your attacks after you have gone to so much trouble and effort to craft a nasty mean ad hominem attack against him. But since sissy didn't take offence he could hardly be on a personal vendetta aimed against you, now, could he?

Coming from you that comment is so ... PRICELESS! [sm=lol.gif] <wiping tears from his eyes ...>

And by the same token, sissy is sure you will agree, chris, the total lack of composition of a person's posts also gives insight into their complete lack of character.

Ah.

As someone pointed out, I used the word 'character' when I should have used the word 'personality'. The ideas expressed by a person show their character (which has a moral dimension). The manner in which they spell or punctuate simply gives a clue about what the person is like.

Is it just me? Or have others here been struck by the number of poorly written posts? I have heard all of the excuses. "English is not my native language." (All of my friends who have English as their second language are much better than I am in proper usage; so I don't buy that.) "My typing is so poor." (OK, you know it is poor; so why don't you look at what you have typed before you actually send your post?) I am not talking about the few stray obvious typos folks; I am talking about people who think they have something to say, but haven't a clue as to how to say it.

PLEASE... pretty please?

If you lack composition and spelling skills, type your posts using a word processing tool, then copy and paste. It will certainly make life easier for all of old retired teachers.



I discovered the practicality of using a word document to generate posts before copying and pasting them to the reply box when my connection was lost and I lost the work that I had done. My original intention was to generate my reply where I could save it and not lose my work. The grammar and spelling check immediately followed as obvious advantages.

I discovered another advantage to this when a forum that I was participating on was hacked and all data was lost. I copied and pasted my saved replies to the forum when the message board was back and running. There was one time where a moderator that I was having a political debate with deleted my reply instead of rebutting it. I re copied and pasted my reply to the thread. After he deleted the post again and locked the thread, I went to another message board, copy and pasted the argument from one of my desktop folders, and added my rebuttal. I went back to the original message board and created a new post that linked to the new message board.

Though I generate my replies on a word document and arrange them for easy reading before copying and pasting the reply to the reply box, I don’t expect other posters to do the same.

And that was my original post. We can set expectations for ourselves based on our capabilities. But we should not set the standards for others, unless we are in a situation were standards need to be set (like in education or certification).

This is a social environment and therefore should be treated as such. We have the capacity to ignore posts that aggravate us whether it's because of incorrect spelling, incorrect grammar and even disrespectful tone (which for me is more of a turn off then bad spelling or grammar). Let's make good use of that capacity, that choice and ignore those who are irritators to us. I've been quite successful at it as of late despite the taunts. I call it resistance training ;)

Now you have sissy confused, chris. Are you saying that a person's character has nothing to do with what a person is really like ?

No, I am not saying that.
