I think this is 2 "firsts" for me.

[trof]

1. I get a thread locked. Probably a wise preemptive move. Things were getting a bit out of hand.
2. I came here within a few months of the start. For the first time, I've just used the ignore function.

I'm not happy about that, but it keeps the blood pressure down and may keep me out of trouble.

1. I know, it's crazy, isn't it?

People say that GD is bad.

But just look at the personal attacks in that Lounge thread.

2. Who'd you put on ignore?

You can tell me. I won't tell anyone else.

4. Huh uhhh. No you didn't.

:D He was nice in GD. Me, on the other hand, I was a bit testy... but not with you.

6. Naw, Allen's my bud.

Just kidding.
I'm sure anyone I put on ignore won't lose any sleep over it.
It's not that I can't suffer the slings and arrows, it's that I just can not resist replying, and it just seems to build and build, and life's just too damned short.
I don't like being angry, even with...aw...nevermind.
:-)
Don't worry.
Be happy.

5. Why put them on "ignore"?

LiberalHistorian and I had a good down & dirty argument yesterday. If we had put each other on ignore we wouldn't have found the common ground we did. We walked away from the argument on (I think) good terms.

Besides, now you don't know if you're going to miss out on an absolutely killer post by that person. :)

7. How about "because I can"?

And I just don't need the aggravation here in the Lounge.
I'll take my chances on the "outside", but this place is a kind of sanctuary for me.
It was violated this evening.

20. lol

That's as good a reason as any I guess! :)

8. Oh good Christ! Deleted reply in the Lounge?

Oh man?
Maybe I need a time out.
Or somebody does.
jeez

I'm sorry I contributed to the nastiness in your post here. I shouldn't have made that comment.

13. Aw, not at all.

Read what I said.
Have no idea what that was about.

[terrya]

19. I'm just blowing smoke.

I really don't know what it was about.

I think it's time for me to get into bed and read for awhile...

Do stick around, trof. And thanks for understanding.

14. You are almost at 16K posts, and you have never had a thread locked.

That. Is. Amazing.

18. I'm pretty sure.

But I'm a geezer and the memory ain't what it used to be.
