that's true, I agree... but that wouldn't be fun! But if people tale what I said with a sense of humor, and not a sense of critic, it gets funny. I know it's "acid"...

Far from comparissons, but 2 examples are:
-Jango
-Hyde from "That 70's show"

:cool:

And I do know I may have opened a can of worms with the above... :scared:

But as I said previously, I won't be bugging you anymore with this attitude.

Um, nice try, but jango debates without being a jerk. I can't speak to *Hyde* of That 70's Show, because I haven't seen it.

Now see what I'm saying?

The first post of this ITEE66 guy is "did you know Creed broke up?"... no $#!!... how do you expect me to react when there are dozens of threads about that all over the net when it still was fresh news...

If he had the care to browse a little on this board, he'd notice it, and get a lot of info he doesn't have... doesn't you get tempted to post a "zero tolerance" reply?

PS: didn't meant to say Jango is a jerk, but sarcastic.

Not sure what you mean by zero tolerance reply, but I just ignore that kind of stuff because he's probably a troll. Ignore them, and they go away.

IF I can figure out what this even says, I think my answer is ...
NO ... I DOESN'T!!!!

zero tolerance = not tolerant at all... truly being a Jackass, with capital J.

For example:

You're lighting a cigarette. Someone you know asks "Do you smoke?" and you answer "No, I don't. I'm just warming it up for the next smoker that comes by and ask me for a lighter"

You could go heavier...

Yes, I agree with Kerri about ignoring the people that come on here and say "hey, guess what, Creed broke up" because they probably are here just to stir up the crap. If you don't pay them any mind, they will go away. But Marcos, we've been family here for so long, it's just tough to see you being so negative towards those that still hold out hope. It's not about the why it's about the how. And yes, Jango ruffled some feathers, but we knew how Jango was from the get go. And we loved him, just as we love you Marcos. Now be nice. :)

I'm all for people joking around, but the thing about sarcasm on the internet is that it's really hard to tell sometimes when you're being sarcastic versus just plain being a jerk. There are no facial "tells", no verbal cues from which to gather an idea of what your aim is when you make comments like you do. (I'm speaking in general terms...not to anyone in particular)
Generally, when I make a sarcastic remark and I want people to know that I am in fact being sarcastic, I give some kind of visual queue to let them know...like adding an [/sarcasm] to the end of the statement. Still, this doesn't always alleviete the problem...
Sometimes when you voice little jokes or opinions, you strike a nerve with people who feel strongly about the person that you are commenting about. You can't just tell people to "lighten up" or "relax, it's only a joke" because people are entitled to have the feelings that they do.....and one can't just turn off and on those feelings at will, for the most part.

*typo

exactly, Jez. I reckon I missed that. I should have posted icons... but I guess I was too lazy for that...

anyway, I hope it's all good now.

Thanks for the kind words, Teri. I'll be! ;)

Good, don't make me come down there and kick yer butt. ;)

I'll say it then, what are you gonna do about it, tough guy? :D

You won't, unless you wanna hurt your feet! :P ;)
