Nephthys, stop getting mad when discussing things.

Seriously, you get mad too often.

I think Blax is annoyed that this discussion is taking place so openly.

I would be too really.

I am wagging my finger and scowling so hard right now. My finger is dangerously close to flying right off the ****ing hook and flipping its shit all the way up his ass with righteous indignation.

Why can't this person just ignore what I'm saying and go about their lives, instead of leaving the forum altogether? "Because said person shouldn't have to" doesn't really mean much. There's a lot of stuff people "shouldn't have to do", but reality and practicality makes us do it anyway.
Well, that is your opinion.

I don't believe that, unless said person is themselves terrible (Or Nemesis X), they should just have to deal, when it is actually pretty easy to make the environment more comfortable for them.

I think that your pseudo-analogy (It is not really an analogy, but I can't think of a term to describe it) doesn't really apply. Sure, people shouldn't have to die in wars, or starve in third-world countries, eat shitty dinners that your parents make, or be subjected to terrible porn on paheal, but changing all of those things is not easily done. Compared to just not making jokes someone has gone on record saying they make her uncomfortable.

I'm annoyed because if my place and the place of "this person" were switched, this conversation would have never happened.

I'm annoyed because I have more history with "this person", and know "this person" better than anyone else on this forum with the exception of Nemebro.

What does "terrible" mean? You don't like them? By that logic, everyone is fair game...

I don't subscribe to the belief that it's okay to **** with someone as long as they're unpopular.

No, I mean they genuinely, objectively, contribute poorly to the forum. Quan is not unpopular because we picked his name out of a hat, he is unpopular because he is stupid, constantly condescending, and flamebaits consistently. That is what makes him terrible, that is why were he to take offence to comments, he could stuff it. As an easy example.

I agree that Quan is stupid. I don't see how that justifies attacking him, though. He's still a human being with feelings (I think. He might be a cylon).

I don't actually go out of my way to attack Quan.

... He usually says something that does justify it though. 😐

Like when I wandered into comic versus last night. I asked a question. He proceeded to be a dickbiter. I proceeded to treat him like the vermin he acts like.

I don't really wander around and attack anyone. 😐

I got along with BT fine when he wasn't being a dick.

You're the exception to the rule in most cases if the last few pages have been anything to go by.

I hope you feel happy for being special, jerkoff.

Haven't really noticed.

Let it be known that quality posters should not insult and offend offensively, but defensively.

So NemeBro has spoken.

GOD WILL SIT.

On a slightly unrelated note:

Blocking is for pussies.

These are real men.

Thank teh lawd that's over.

We just had to put my dog to sleep. She was old (nearly 16), and has been sick and in pain for a while, and there was just nothing more we could do. cry

Sorry to hear that, Peach. Not really one to say that she's "in a better place", per say, but at least she's not suffering anymore. You did the right thing.

I know somebody who had a similar experience except the dog he had wasn't sick but it was old and blind. Thinking the dog couldn't make it while moving from one town to another, he dropped it off at some pound to have it put to sleep and before he could get in his car and leave, he hears his dog howling for it's owner. ****ed him up.

Sorry to hear, its never the easiest decision.

To make a hard choice even harder...

I'm not sure whether or not telling that story helped but what I am trying to say here is that that kind of thing happens often and it sucks. I really am sorry for your loss, Peach.

Yeah...unfortunately, we've been through it before. Thanks, guys.

I'm planning on getting a tattoo of her pawprint. I just wish we had the pawprints of my cat (who died nearly 10 years ago and yet I still get teary thinking about him) and the first dog we had (who my mom got before I was born and died when I was 19), so I could get all three of them.
