Reply to How NOT to appear foolish on the internet. in Internet JoeUser Forums

Thanks for the responses, everybody. Guess a lot of non-Americans have come across point no 12. BlueDev >>It was only later that I realized he was joking, but since I hadn't lurked at all wasn't familiar with the attitude and tone of the group at all. Good point. It does do one well to lurk for while to get a feel of the community before jumping into it. Floozie, Happy Holidays to you too. <img src="../images/smiles/smi

How NOT to appear foolish on the internet. in Internet JoeUser Forums

One assumes that you have the best of intentions to begin with... 1) If you are new to a website, community, blog or forum, be sure to read the FAQ and rules first. 2) Read everything properly and thoroughly before responding. 3) If you don't want to risk a nasty response, don't post anything at all. 4) Never put more th

Reply to The point of the journey in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

I do that too. Rush through first and then go back and savor it again - books, magazines, articles games, music albums... stuff that are probably best enjoyed in pace. I do replay games but admitting all too often I only explore in detail up to 25% in replaying and then I'm off to play another one. I'm very impatient in life. I want to finish things as quickly as possible. Unlike games and books, one can't go back and enjoy the moment....</f

Reply to Children Should Be Seen and Not Heard? in Home & Family JoeUser Forums

Children are always understandably noisy and playful. I admit I cannot stand kids who enjoy letting out constant high pitched screams, but children who are too quiet creeps me out. (I have a pair cousins who are creepy like that.) Some parents should really watch their kids and supervise them properly instead of letting them run wild in inappropriate places like shopping malls, busy roads and on buses or trains. Some parents don't seem to

Reply to Merry Xmas, my arse! in Misc JoeUser Forums

Sorry to hear you had such a horrid party. >> Everyone sees xmas as family coming together, and making up, and putting stuff behind them. Sometimes it's not possible to do that, sometimes you just have to live with the fact that you can't live together, and instead of ruining xmas spending it with people we can't stand, we should spend it with those people we really want to spend it with. Good point. I know what you mean by that - I g

Reply to And she lived happily ever after. in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

I checked out the site after reading your blog. *G* The titles of the posts told me enough...though I did unfortunately opened a few pointless ones. >> I actually posted this over there and am waiting to see how badly I get flamed. Nice nick. I don't think you will get flamed much for this, afterall your point is valid. But you've got two or three who don't seem to get your article, so something might set off.

Reply to And she lived happily ever after. in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

>> Not to totally exclude these people, and also to receive more presents, Bride sent out wedding announcements the day of the wedding to those who weren't invited. huh! Around here, it would have been about the money. We give red packets containing an auspicious sum of money to the bride and groom. >> she still got presents from those stupid enough to still love her. <img src="../images/smiles/smile.gif" border=0 ALIGN="abs

Reply to Drama Queens need Joe User in Blogging JoeUser Forums

I've tried blogging in another site but it was pointless if no one at all is going to read it. There's a greater chance for people to stumble on my article here than at blogcity or some other blog site, even if their features are cooler. I admit I need some attention. I don't mind the threatrics sometimes - and I can usually tell who's acting up, even if I can't, I kinda accept that there are such things. Some of these 'threatrics' fuel my h
