Apology to the board

  • pleasework said...

    I apologize for anything offensive or cruel that I have said in the past. I have a very serious life so I used this board as an outlet to act like a fool. I had an epiphany that this may not be the time and place for wacky, dry humor. I want to apologize to any user that has been hurt by, or offended at my weak, impotent attempts at humor. I am truly sorry. Though I may not be the object of the board's ire at this moment, I grasp the magnitude of how irresponsible internet usage can be hurtful, and I wish to have no part in this. I will still try to illicit a smile in those with weird senses of humor, but I have stopped all of the floodcock mama jokes. Especially the one where I said....wait, I digress. I promised myself I wouldn't go there any more. If you feel like you too have been a clown d--k one too many times, please feel free to +1 me. I know four of you that need to reply to this.

    clown d--ckery hurts everyone.

    Excellent post, life is too short, so live it. If I ever piss you off or hurt your feelings, tell me. I will either apologize or agree to disagree. Nonetheless, your post was ballsy and classy.

    OMG....who gives a crap what folks on this board (or any other board) thinks. I rank them right behind the check out person @ Bi-Lo.

    I think it is important to always be cognizant of how you are perceived. You can then chose how you feel about it. It is a reality check for yourself.

    see, I think you're first mistake is having a, "very serious life." Unless you're the almighty or some derivative of an omnipotent being, brain surgeon or about to cure all the world's woes, don't take things too serious.
    I don't take anything serious, especially myself. This ain't dress reherasal and if you ain't laughing then you ain't livin'. Words to live by imho!
    So lighten up, have fun here and everywhere. About the only thing I get serious about is The Gamecocks.

    While I agree with your premise of lighten up and have some fun....the problem on this board is that there are too many who find it fun to get out and stir up a little bad feelings from others. They are our 12 old adults who like to drink and post, who don't care if what they say hurts anyone else, they think the world should get thicker skin and put up with them. They jump on everyone who has an opinion different from them. Yeah, they take the fun out of it with their version of fun.

    I believe in having fun and enjoying life too, just as much as anyone else. But I also take one thing in life very seriously...and that is character. A man can have good character and still have a good time in life. There are too many here who seem to have very little character and enjoy having a good time at others expense. In real life, they might just act like real men face to face, but on here, they act like spoiled little brats who need to be taken out behind the wood shed and shown what a good old spanking really is.

    ....excuse me while I go fetch my belt.

    Is he taking money for upvotes? I would say he is a slut for upvotes. He shows no discretion, and does anything, but I do not think he has taken money. correct me if I am wrong.

  • Sounds like he might mean what he says.
    When a person apologizes, is it better to cut him down for it, or to accept the apology and watch to see if his actions prove his words?

    The way some of you are attacking him, you are acting worse than you seem to think he did.

    Be adults for once on this board, accept the apology, and if he doesn't live up to his word, then call him on the carpet for it.

    You make an excellent distinction, Steve.

  • Have I missed something here?

    I've researched several of your threads and posts from the past few weeks - I would have gone back further in the archives but i didn't want to miss the two episodes of Matlock which are about to start.

    Maybe it's just me but I can't find a vitriolic or caustc word at all from you. Your threads are meticulously woven with wit and humor and with the possible exception of the occasional quip from Oliver, "Please sir, I want some more" and pleas of "Brother can you spare an upvote?" are relatively unobtrusive, innocuous and benign.

    That you would desire to apologize - I'm curious - how serious of a life do you have and does it include white linen table coverings and serviettes with an after dinner Courvoisier and a hand carved meerschaum pipe? If so, perhaps I could join you for a Chateaubriand served with a nice Béarnaise sauce?

    Now on the other hand if you had a writing style reminiscent of ABC I would probably agree.

  • I tend to be more of a "persona" than my true self on message boards.

    That's the fun.

    Oh, and as a sidenote, check out Maxim's list of the hottest 100 women. I've already hooked up with numbers 100-83. Working on 82 now.

    Someone posted some hurtful stuff on trooper's thread and it made me sad. I didn't want to be a part of hurting someone's feelings and I felt it was time to grow up. However, The negative comments seem to me dragging me back down to immaturity!

    pleasework

  • I like any poster that does not take themselves too seriously. IMO what is sad is anyone who gives as rats a__ what any anoymous poster says. WTS the only folks that annoy me are the self appointed "regulators" that want to control what opinions are worthy for discussion. Pleasework....you seem to annoy those bastards..and that pleases me.
