Without naming nicks...there are two posters on this forum whose real lives are so pathetic that their only claim to relevance is the number of responses they receive for their top posts. As someone whose real life is not so hot these days, I'd like to address them both. I'm doing so in first person, because I'm not going to pretend that I'm speaking for anyone but myself:
Neither of you has written anything worth reading. I mean absolutely nothing. I'm sorry, but there it is. And you both must be quite aware...why else would you spend so many hours spamming and ranting?
I can't decide whether I should humor you or shun you. I know for a fact that people like you do go away if they are ignored. But if this is all you've got...do I have an obligation to continue acknowledging you?
What if my written responses and ratings to your absurd top posts is all you have to convince yourselves that you actually matter? If I ignore you, do I send you off to a warm tub and straight razor?
Am I enabling you, or am I saving your life? If ignored, will you finally seek help, and find some purpose in your meat life, or is this actually all you have left?
I believe that given my particular medical problems, I'm in a unique position to address this. Stringing two sentences together is becoming more and more difficult for me...one funny little turn...movements of my own or of others around me...and my equilibrium is shot...for hours or even days. When I'm in such episodes, even remember the names of common items becomes difficult. And these episodes are occuring with greater frequency.
When this happens, I try not to post. And as my friends will attest, I rarely risk emailing.
Now if I can figure out that my posts are gonna be crap, why can't you? And if I can find something else to pass my time with, why can't you?
Can it be that the BOF has become your last refuge? Please try to find something else. Even if it's Googling Images...or watching the TV. Don't let our last impression of you be that you were an ass.
