I know. I really don't care about the karma or whatever. Its more bugging me that someone is that annoyed/bothered with/by me than anything. And it would be nice to know WHY, because if I offended someone I can apologize and not do it again. Its not the points.
^ Don't sweat it, surfbum. Smiting somebody on here because they pissed you off is about as effective as flipping off and/or tailgating the jerk who cut in front of you: it serves no purpose. You get a nanosecond's worth of gratification, but then what? You're still pissed off & you haven't done a damn thing to make yourself feel better. This is why I prefer to rant loudly using all the foul language I learned from sailors. Now THAT can be cathartic as hell! ;D
That said, I'm lucky the inconsiderate, tailgating schmuck didn't eat my bumper this morning. THREE HARD BRAKE CHECKS & DUDE STILL WOULDN'T BACK OFF?!? GRRR!!! (You can take the girl outta New England, but you can't take the New England driver outta the girl!)
Yea someone was going around giving me 3 Mondays a day and eventually ate through all my Fridays so I just said fuck it and took it off that way this person couldnt get his rocks off anymore.
I got rid of the karma thing long long ago for that very reason. It's screwed up that someone can smite (whatever it used to be) you each and every hour just for fun because you expressed your opinion on a message board yet they can't be bothered to just send a pm to you and tell you why.

I don't worry about the Karma thing. I don't think I've ever actually given someone a Monday unless they were totally being a douche (one racist person comes to mind). I do Friday people sometimes if they are just saying something super cool or doing something really nice. Mostly I reflect my feelings with the like/dislike buttons.

For real. It's that time of year again where people smite for no reason.
Ahh that sounds like a good thing tho - maybe it means you have a lot to accomplish (or it could mean you're schizophrenic - which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it )

The best practice is not to say anything, whoever is doing it is only hoping for a reaction. I will set my inforoo bookmark to Friday you whenever I log on for a few days though, that should help.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.
Left for Knoxville this morning at 6 AM and just got back. These long-day work trips can suck balls sometimes...especially when it rains all day. It's good to be home.
EDIT: My old lady made me scallop pappardelle as a surprise. I've got good people; it's really good to be home.
Thanks for all the suggestions for break-up music, guys. after 2 days of searching; PJ HARVEY-"Rid of Me"& "Is This Desire? to " albums and LDR- "Born To Die" were the only thing i could listen to.
Polly Jean never lets me down, she's like audible whiskey.
So I was listening to the Jason Ellis show on the satellite radio, and they had Rob Corddry as a guest. They were having him do different soundbites that they could later use on the show. One was "I don't listen to Neutral Milk Hotel. I masturbate to them." I instantly thought of certain people on this board. You know who you are.
when i was at comic con this summer, i ran into rob outside the convention center just walking by himself. we ducked behind this bush and talked for like five minutes, he was so nice. (and weirdly attractive in real life haha)

I appreciate it, but its not necessary. I really don't care about the points themselves. I mean, if you see something that I said that deserves one, cool - but please don't go out of your way to friday me up to make up for some tool draining my points.
I just wish whoever I offended/pissed off whatever would let me know what it is/was that I do/have done so I can either rectify it, make amends or laugh it off because the person is an idiot.
Thats what its about for me. I can have -49823985723495 and it won't be any sweat off my nuts.
I remember back when i had karma. the highest it got was like 32. then i made one comment about how i would rather not have Sonic Youth headline the Trinumeral festival and some person made it their mission to smite me all the way to -48 and then I turned it off.
