The whole trying to figure something out is beyond that I want my mind to do these days.
Yes, the lineup will come out, I could become MORE excited about going, but my main issue is that I have to wait until June.
I am still trying to get my head around my boss, 33 years old, in charge of 700 employees, 70 million dollar budget, and provide services for 106,000 people.
Lord, try to help him not @&ck things up. Too many people could be hurt.
I'm about to dip out on the clues thread too. It's just turning me into a Ann Coulter.
I just want to be like, "READ THE quacking THREAD!!!!J!1!1!Jk!!!!"
It's driving me crazy.
For me - it is just not worth the hassle. Last year was fun but this year people are not working together - they are just throwing stuff out there and then getting mad if you don't agree with them

^ The thing about last year was even if we didn't agree with each other we appreciated the efforts everyone put into it. This year there is just too much bickering and not enough listening to one another.
It really does suck, cause the clues were the reason I joined the boards last year, they were so fun....and a few people have managed to suck the fun right out.
Oh well, c'est la vie....we'll get the lineup soon....then I'll just pretend like I would have solved the clues like that *snaps fingers* if I would have participated hahahaha.....aww if only I were that clever
ive posted a lot in that thread, but ive bitten my tongue much more than that. it's sad that half of the thread is arguing about whose points are more valid. oh well. it is what it is.
Last year's clue thread was hardly some miraculous fountain of genius. It was the same hot mess that EVERY 'Roo thread is.
Oh yeah, most definitely. But the big difference is I never got frustrated. We would get off topic, we would disagree, we would go down crazy paths....but I never felt like I wanted to quit.

I needed a break from that thread - not just because the riddles are hurting my brain, but because it is just so damn hostile in there. I've lost four karma points in half as many days, and yet I've been posting almost exclusively in that thread all week. The tension between folks is seriously palpable in there - it's the worst vibe I've gotten from a Bonnaroo bunch since Kanye. I mean, these clues are meant to be enjoyable, not an invitation to bite other people's heads off. I don't see it so much as newbies vs. oldies, I see it moreso as idiots vs. kanyes.
Settle down all, this is supposed to be fun. You'll find out if you were right or wrong in a measly two and a half weeks.

Woah! Did it come across like I was attacking you? Did I target a single person in declaring that I was done? I haven't even posted in the bloody thread since this morning because I didn't want to "hinder" it. I have stayed out of any and all arguments going on in that thread because I did not want to become part of the problem.
And I have never, nor will I ever say that someone is not entitled to their own opinion, so why am I being lectured to like a child?
Am I supposed to apologize for coming into a Random Thread and making two comments about leaving the thread? I don't understand. What exactly was the purpose of this?

Can't just stay out of it, can I?
NO NO NO!!! you rule!!! i read posts all the time and you are almost to always kind. i would most likely never say other wise. I was actually on your side. just trying to say we should work together and not against each other.

Well I apologize for being abrasive. I've been a little edgy lately which makes me defensive, I'm sorry.
I completely agree though, we should be working together, but after trying to get that across a half a dozen times and being ignored I opted to not waste my time, I just don't have the energy.
So, sorry for misinterpreting and thank you for clarifying.

I've got a three day weekend, but I have some required reading:
The Bridge at the Edge of the World Regulating the Poor: The functions of Public Welfare The Shock Doctrine: The rise of Disaster Capitalism The Future of the Welfare State: Crisis Myths and Crisis Realities
Class next weekend, must study before class. I'll find all sorts of things around the house to avoid studying though.
