"I love this rant of his"

*sigh*

To me, it really doesn't matter what statement is picked out of all the others to discuss. Where the OP gets herself in trouble, here, is with the above statement. The entire excerpt is bigoted and meant to inflame -- not to mention to blacken Mr. Rooney's reputation. It's not something to laugh at or to *love*, and I would say is pretty much offensive to most folks on this forum. Sign18

Add to that the complete oversight that it did NOT come from Mr. Rooney (which is obvious after the first few statements) is rather mindboggling. I've been rather speechless since I actually READ the thing from the link this morning. :blinkie:

I'm beginning to think that the whole concept of chatting on forums of a complete waste of time.

In reference to the post, I had received one of those emails that had been passed all over the place and it was too messy to cut and paste so I did a uick Google search and pasted it in. I don't think the email had been "complete" either.

There's really no huge "background" to this. I do multi-task like everyone does so some things get lost along the way.

I guess you'd have to know what types of discussions I get into with people about business, but at this point I could care less. If even Stardust is going to start referring to me as "OP" then I think that this forum is pretty much a lost cause.

Well, Laurie, you lost my respect before, but now I don't think I can ever see you in the same way.

Laurie has been busy erasing all of her posts here, replacing them with ...

Is this the internet version of going home, and taking your ball with you?

I have no respect for anybody that neither stands behind their thoughts nor admits when they're wrong.

And never mind the fact that when you remove your posts, some other posts lose their context.

Didn't you even notice that your Google search took you to Snopes - the home of the Urban Legend?? :o

vitalfinds · 10-14-2006, 11:50 PM,

What exactly is your problem with me anyway Jen?

vitalfinds · 10-14-2006, 11:52 PM,

And now, I dont' know what the Urban Legend is.

Jen · 10-14-2006, 11:55 PM,

Your behavior. I was staying out of this until you started doing your little disappearing act with your previous posts. That's about the most chickenshit thing I've seen in a while, and truly has me disguisted and irritated.

Ok, so you're not going to answer the uestion then. I don't know what "behavior" you mean. If it's my deleting some posts, I'll admit that I'm throwing a tantrum, but I'm really sick and tired of my words getting nit-picked to death.

Decided to quote you, so things wouldn't go poof.

My answer is already there. You just choose not to understand it. However, you're not worth the aggravation, so I'm making the first use of the ignore button on this forum. It's not like your posts mean enough to you to not trash them the moment you want to throw a tantrum.
