This is really beginning to irritate me.
« on: July 01, 2004, 08:49:58 PM »
Why is it that, increasingly often, someone will post something here and another poster will come along, make a set of assumptions based on nothing other than what they "feel" or "think", and tell the first poster that they are wrong?  Why do people who aren't "there" or don't have first hand experience with something tell those who were there or who do have experience that they don't know what they're talking about?  Why do people who haven't got a clue about something tell those who do that they couldn't possibly have seen or done something?  Maybe I've done this myself, though I don't recall having done so, but it seems to be an increasing habit around here.  

Please, people, when someone states that such and such happened, maybe a better tactic would be to assume that they do know whereof they speak, at least until you can prove them wrong.

Um, he never said that is the way things SHOULD be, he said that's the way it is.

And cursing at someone is a sure fire way to get someone to change their opinion.

And BTW Rags, I was not referring to you when I asked about who would say it to someone face to face.  I am also a "what you see is what you get person", and believe me true, I am intimidated easily, especially by words written by secret admirers...

You guys are all full of crap! You have no idea what you're talking about! That especially goes for O, that guy doesn't know his bum from a hole in the ground. There's never been a post like that on this site. If you think that you saw one you must be mistaken. Man, these damn old guys are ruining things around here!

Bowling is without a doubt the dumbest, most pointless, most idiotic excuse for a game that has ever been invented. So, what time are we bowling tomorrow?

Hey, I resemble that remark!  

Now can I complain about people who complain too much?

Hey GJK, why don't you go buy that pink ball you keep raving about.  It should fit nicely in your purse.

I had a feeling this was about the sport post this morning. For crying out loud all the guy said was he had a hard time believing you bowled those scores on a true sport compliant condition. All I can say is if you did, great bowling, I don't take anything away from you.

I have to backpeddle after re-reading his post, he did sort of call you a liar. Sorry rags.
