When You Were Still a Lurker . . .

dubs · Post by **dubs** » Sun Jul 23, 2006 3:31 pm

I lurked for about a week, saw that there was such a diverse spread of topics, and of course, opinion within them. I thought, sod it, no use hanging around, get amongst it all......So I did! Of course, my machine went TU almost immediately, so I'm back again now, still trying to ease myself in gently....Be nice:D

I have mentioned this before so you'll all know , BR and LC scared the pants off me;) but i soon found out their lovely and it didnt take long to get to know the rest of you all - i think as well it was hard for me because at home i have this awful habit of making fun (taking the pi$$ ) out of everything and anything and because of the language thing i was terrified (and sometimes still am) of saying the wrong thing incase its taken the wrong way . I do still lurk and post every now and again . I am incredibly lazy and sometimes i just cant be arsed

and ive never really been one for lashing praise onto others i hardly know, it takes a real long time for me to feel part of something so yes i used to lurk and still do and the rest of the time i just post bollock$ :rolleyes: I like your bollocks.

Wouldn't it be wild if everyone assumed everyone else were joking until told otherwise, rather than vice versa?

Adam Zapple first gave me the link to this board, back in April, probably MUCH to his CHAGRIN! (Does he get a set of dishes or a complimentary dessert for his referral?)

I joined but lurked until the 4th of July weekend, when it was hot and I was inside and bored and.....decided to come out of the woodwork.

Cherandbuster sent me a sweet pm and everyone responded so genuinely to my introductory thread that I was VERY impressed.

Naturally, I sang your praises to a few friends and here we are!

Adam's the best.

Yes, I'm fond of Bubs myself....have to remind myself he's got another name here.

(I like that name, don't you? It's like a snack...."BUBS....fresh 'n crispy!")

Oh, ok...it's BUBBA....but, BUBS is so much friendlier!

:wah:

Could you clear something up for me here, six? How, in any way, does that question relate to posting on a forum???

We'll get them though, precious, we'll say they're self-important, that'll shut them up won't it. And then... then we'll say nobody likes them! Ooooh, precious, and when they've all gone we can come out and dance in the starlight again and eat flappy fishess as often as we wants to...

Maybe I haven't been eating enough brain food lately...now that your "explanation" for the other is posted, could you explain to me how my asking for clarification leads you to believe I lack self confidence?? 'Cuz, I can guarantee, you've got the wrong girl, there. :-3

pantsonfire321@aol.com · Mon Jul 24, 2006 3:38 am

Six, why do you still hold on to a grudge .

As you well know, that was meant sarcastically. Want to answer the question now?

i'm not saying you lack confidence :-2

I started " if you "
I read it differently. If asking for clarification bothers you so much, why don't you try being a little less obscure? Or is that obtuse???

You can't just go out and GET more self confidence Six.....some people never have it, some have it 'knocked out of them', some get it back with help and support...

sixyearsleft wrote: Is something happening to me that i dont know about?Fortunately, six, the National Health Service has specialists you can be referred to who will be far better placed than I to make such a determination. I'm being very good since your meltdown, I'm staying well away from you. I'd hate to trigger another episode like the last one. The Gollum parody today was just irresistable.

Now, how about if I go off in this direction and you go that way, and we'll avoid upsetting these good folks with any unseemly fracas?
