  • People Who Go Off Half-Cocked

    This goes out to everybody that gets to a post, sees a snippet of text that is "OMG Evil!" and has to hit the reply button to correct the wrongdoing. Never mind the other half of the sentence or the entire other paragraph...

    Faith is about what you do. It's about aspiring to be better and nobler and kinder than you are. It's about making sacrifices for the good of others. - Dresden

    Yeah. That bugs me too.
    Point to Ponder:

    Is it considered irony when someone on an internet forum makes a post that can be considered to look like it was written by a 3rd grade dropout, and they are poking fun of the fact that another person couldn't spell?

      I've mentioned this before- it's what happened to me on a cosplay forum, when I said that I had once thought about doing a tower-angel costume. I had several people absolutely go off on me, completely ignoring even the next line of my post after that, let alone subsequent attempts to defend myself. It read something like "Thought about it, but probably never will, for a number of reasons". It did NOT say "Gonna do it" or even "planning to do it". Only "I once thought about it" and "probably won't".

      I guess admitting to having a non-PC thought a long time ago makes me just as guilty as somebody who's planning to do it, and even a respectful portrayal is just as bad as the most mocking or heinous.

      You know what's really half-cocked? One member of that forum admitted that he had gone snooping into my other online activities- borderline cyberstalking. Just because he was offended. What a fucking choad, perhaps I should have passed that along to some friends of mine who work in IT, they could have had some fun in return.
