You can never leave the fates will draw you back
You underestimate me.
While it has beeen established that most posters underestimate you, I am stilll wondering how there can be an effect to keep your interest tickled here.
Honestly, I misss the old , but trying to make something of the new membership is becoming a challenge that may hold some slight intrigue for me, like teaching a child to respect fire by showing it how fire can burn and get away from you so quickly or something. Unfortunately, I hate to see kids burned. I am not the one who can do thi ss for them.
Are you planning to stick around for a bit or just get your rockks off again and go?
yeah, and I miss 1998
there is always a sense of elitism among old friends. The fact is this isnt 5 years ago, deal. And your analogy didnt even make sense. Basically, you are saying that you want to show the new member that if you act crazy and make a scene, it gets out of control and then comes back to bite you in the ass ? Well it's not really the newer members that are doing such things it is the established ones.
I can not understand how one could get it so wrong.
It is the idiots who will be burned.
BTW, have you noticed that I do not think of you as an idiot?
While it may be difficult to come to terms with a way for us to interact, I am approaching with my "big stick" held behind my back, which means that I am hoping for a way to share.
The idiots will always get burned. It just seems like you are equating the idiots with the new people. Granted you've been here like a thousand years so maybe you are talking about someone that joined a year ago - but as far as I can see it seems the newer people aren't the ones getting butthurt or flipping out.
I don't think you are an idiot either
and sometimes I am just an abrasive person. Sometimes cold. I dont mean it. I never had a problem with you and Im sure we will talk and debate in the future. It is just that if I see something I dont agree with Im going to mention it; it doesnt mean that I dont like someone or that I am upset. It's pretty hard to piss me off.
I used to belong to this super elite *cough* private forum ( that died a few years ago) , so I know what it is like to have inner circles, etc. Im just saying we dont have a time machine, so sink or swim.
