Ever get involved in an intense email/PM exchange that lasted 1-2hrs,

then was abruptly done after everyone had said their piece as much as possible? Heh, I just did, for the first time ever.

arguing on the internet is like competing in the Special Olympics.

2. Heh. This was actually very civil though. Stemmed from a thread on DU.

There was a disagreement of opinion. Thread was locked so discussion continued in Email/PM, rapid fire. No 'shouting' or namecalling. Several exchange. Wads expended. Called it a day on both sides.

OK, so we got a trooper pulls someone over, we got a shooting, these folks drive by, there's a high-speed pursuit, ends here and then this execution-type deal.

5. Rare treat for me, actually. I wish it happened more often.

I like to chitchat. What can I say?

6. Yes, and it was basically a breakup.

But we weren't dating. It was weird.

9. Aww, thanks...

I tend to get very wet blanketish sometimes, LOL.

But it did very much suck! Plus, it felt kind of fake/dreamish since it wasn't on the phone/in person. It was better than a post-it note though (obscure Sex and the City reference!).

13. That was the MOST jacked up thing I ever saw...

...you just don't break up in a post-it note!

:grr: :grr:

11. Heh. At least my exchange was not with a freeper, and it wasn't even on

a 'political' topic.
