Oh, o.k. I was just going by what you said here:

I'm just amazed at some people on this thread who seem to expect that from everyone.

because the only person I saw talking about pixie dust and hugs or any sort of expectations was you.

Talking about it specifically, maybe so. By implication through their posts ... no, I am not alone there.

Again, JMO & just my interpretation. Your mileage may vary.

The implications were obvious. You are not alone.

Thanks, Cardaway. I thought I was losing what little is left that passes for my mind.

Especially when the people that get baited have done absolutly NOTHING to deserve it. I can pick out 3 threads right now that are based souly on baiting and trying to hurt someone else.

Yep your darned right I'm better than that!!!!!

I think we all need to find a happy medium between self- expression, and hurting someones feelings. Obviously some people are more sensitive than others, so it's sometimes hard to tell if something bothers someone.

I would never tell someone that none of their posts make sense, even if I believed that to be the case.

Okay for example,

I like watching some reality shows and post on some of the threads. Sometimes Dan will come into the thread and post a smiley or say something silly which ALWAYS cracks me up and brings a smile to my face. I see no problem at all with something like that. I know Dan doesn't watch reality T.V. but his cute little comments aren't meant to hurt or harm anyone and they actually make me laugh..........

Things like that I see as harmless and funny........heck the threads wouldn't be the same without them!!!!

Grow up! Your little digs don't bother me. And to think a friend of mine said you were a nice person.

Keep trying you all are so unhappy and misrable in your own lives that you have to pick on others to get your jollies. Its not working with this person, not only am I better than that but I'm past feeling sorry for any of you.

Who cares what you think or say, go ahead and be hateful and cause trouble, goodness knows you need something in your life to make you happy and if being sarcastic, baiting and hateful floats your boat then have at it.

I'm done with you all, let your on conscience deal with you.....if you even have one.

Since you claim to be better than this, maybe you should begin practicing what you preach.

There's those rolling eyes again. If you can't stand to read it, don't.

it does seem, though, that Beauty's trying to start an argument.

Doesn't hurt me to read it. Are you having problems with it?

In defense of Steve ............who trust me never in this lifetime expected me to be defending him.......smileys are second nature to some who lived on the debate board. It was one way to add "expression" to written words in an ( often vain ) attempt to keep things civil.

 

[Eeyore1954]

FIK... (You are always ready to ride to anyone's defense, so I am not too surprised.) Good explanation. However, regarding the attempt to keep things civil... I'm not too sure that is applicable to me.

 

[jennyanydots]

steve, your smilie made me

 

[workinggal]

Play nice boys and girls, I don't want my thread closed.

 

[CookieGVB]

Maybe I should have put a little smilie after mine, to make it cute and harmless...I still have so much to learn around here.

Only ONE friend said I was nice???

 

[Bob Slydell]

Cookie!!

Thanks, Bob. *I'll* take your hug.
