Do you guys all hate me? Is that it?

[BlueIris]

Why does every single thread I post in suddenly die?

[tsakshaug]

1. it is a skill

that some of us just have

[BlueIris]

5. That's good to know. 'Cause it's like every single thread, seriously.

I'm thinking of reregistering under the handle "discussion_killer." It's that bad.

[tsakshaug]

10. I am one of the few

that can kill at "post a picture of....." threads at about 10 posts

[BikeWriter]

2. Uh...

[BlueIris]

4. It's okay if you do, you know.

I would understand. I guess. I've never been one of the popular kids.

[Phentex]

16. Do you have a teen angst story you'd like to share?

So many people harbor terrible, no-good, very bad things that happened to them as a teen. What's your story? Lie down on the couch and tell us about it.

[In_The_Wind]

3. I honestly don't hate anyone!

I'm sorry your threads die....

[Sugar Smack]

6. NO! We love you!

We just hate that you hate Amelie.

;-)

[BlueIris]

8. Well, I love The Color Trilogy, if that gets me back in good graces.

I don't hate every French film ever made, I swear.

[Sugar Smack]

13. You see there?

You're fabulous.

:yourock:

[demnan]

7. Disscussion killer is what I am

But maybe it's just having the last word, that's all.

[BlueIris]

9. A lot of times, it happens when I'm not trying to have the last word.

Or alienate anyone. Or piss anyone off, even if I think they deserve it. Sometimes, it will happen after I've honestly posted something sagacious and benign, just an additional comment, intended to keep the discussion going. And it still dies. What the hell?

[NewJeffCT]

18. I do that a lot, too

I can't count the # of times I've had the last post in a lengthy thread... but, it's happened a lot.

[swag]

11. I'm sure you're well regarded

and that you just stun threads into silence with your incisive responses. You leave nothing for anybody else to say.

We all understand that once BlueIris has spoken, everything else is bullshit.

I praise you to the skies.

[Sugar Smack]

14. Seconded.

And thirded, if I may be so bold.

[cleofus1]

12. killing a thread

just means your post is so profound and insightfull that all other posters are struck dumb by your brilliance!

happens to me all the time...:woohoo:

[quisp]

15. Maybe you should try "Unsolicited Compliments" threads...

those will never die

[GOPBasher]

17. Mine do too. n/t

[BlueIris]

19. I just posted in your thread...so, it's sure to die off now. Sorry. nt.

[GOPBasher]

20. LOL That's ok. :-) n/t

[Shell Beau]

21. It is all about timing, I tell ya!

[BlueIris]

22. Timing, huh. Never thought of it from that angle.

Timing...timing...

[Shell Beau]

23. Well I've posted something and got like 2 posts and

then hours later, someone posted pretty much the same thing and got tons of posts!!! All about timing!!

[GalleryGod]

26. It ain't the timing, that's for sure.

:tinfoilhat:

[Shell Beau]

28. I was trying to make myself feel better!

Come on, play along! Jeez!:P

[GalleryGod]

33. Sorry.

I was in the O'Reily "No Spin Zone":blush:

[Shell Beau]

38. Which means you were spinning like a mofo!

[GalleryGod]

39. In a manner of speaking

"yes!':blush:

:spray: :spray: :spray:

[Sugar Smack]

24. Kicking!

:toast:

[BlueIris]

29. Oh my god, someone kicked my thread! Maybe you don't hate me!

I knew it. You like me, you really, really like me!

[progmom]

25. not at all!

i think you're fab!

[Hugin]

27. Yes.

But, I hate myself more.

[RedCloud]

30. Why does every single thread I post in suddenly die?

Try posting in some married threads, instead of just singles. Married people have lots of experiences out the wazoo, you know.

[Phentex]

31. kick

answer me!

[Zomby Woof]

32. No way

You dislike the same politicians I do, so you know I like you. :-)

[tjdee]

34. Because you have given the best reply.

That's what I always think when I kill a thread.

I have said all there is to say on the subject, am above reproach, and everyone is in awe of my replying skills.

:D

[billyskank]

36. It'd be nice for a

"what he said!"

or a

"you da man!"

or, hell, even a

"ditto!"

once in a while, tho

[billyskank]

35. Some of us are just born with it.

Some say it is a gift. Others deem it a curse. All we know is...we have the 'touch.' :D

[tarkus]

37. Yeah, the same thing happens when I post things. Just watch this one... NM
