I was told once to keep your friends close, but keep your enemies closer.
I've liked reading through this thread . It's given me a great insight to the personalities around here. I like that......I do admit I'm not into the wishy washy threads because they are always derailed at some point . It's like ....
"You're my bestest friend":-4
"No you're my best friend"
" No your my best friend" :-4
"Okay...Now you hang up first"
"No you hang up ":-4
" No you hang up"
"No you hang up" :-4
"You hang up."
......clunck
s'hit the Bi'tch hung up on me.
For those who say forums aren't ' reality', Well, they actually are in a sense, because the thoughts and feelings that people express here would be felt and expressed anyway by other means . For instance half the reliigious and political topics would be debated by friends at dinner parties and the like. And friendships are made everywhere so what you see here would be playing out in real life by those people and with the personalities they hold. Basically forums are a means to an end . People rarely know their neighbours anymore so the gossip over the back fence has ceased. Voila!!!! Internet forums.
I believe the forum is a place where you see peoples true personalities . The intro niceties cease very quickly because of the anominity. Therefore we don't go through all the play acting we do in real life when first introducing ourselves to new people. I believe the sinerities I see here would be the same I would behold of any of you in RL. (Albeit we have others present "family and other friends' .....in real life so you might hold back a bit, but essentially you're exactly the same as on this board )
So in summing up what you see here is what you'd really get if you knew any of these people closely in RL. So it's not reality? I think it is .......maybe a little too much reality:)
If you were to walk into a crowded pub and look for me , all I would have to do is speak and you'd know I was Fuzzywuzzy straight off. I don't believe we change because we've already shown too much of ourselves on here to pretend further.
Anyway that's what I reckon.:-6:-4:p
Some do know others in real life, and see them frequently, whether it be by family for friends.
I spent almost 4 hours on the phone with Shelbell on NYE, we both counted down, my came first, then hers, it was a wonderful experience for us both, as she lost Grant, her husband 10 months ago so his was her first.....Mike walked out on me 8 months ago, so this was my first.......and firsts of everything suck!
I find like you find, this is not cyberspace, we are real people, people with feelings, ones who care, ones who reach out everyday, ones who contribute to so many exciting and awesome threads here.
I actually call fg my second home.......some may think I'm crazy, but I'm here everyday visiting and chatting along.
in all honesty? Since Mike left and I am on my own now, I come here anywhere from 3-4 times a day pending.
I have met some amazing people from all around the world, with unique and usual ideas, beliefs, foods, language and how its spoken elsewhere, their passions in life, their hobby's, their pets, their problems.
- damn its sad I'm the only one here that hobby is tropical fish!:yh_rotfl
Happy New Year Fuzz!
Life is just to short for drama.
