5. I should've waited
Instead, I just ignored everybody, just because it felt so good. One after the other, ignore, ignore, ignore. Pretty soon I'd ignored just about everyone.

Afterwards, it sure was lonely though.

I want to wish you Happy Anniversary next year and find out how many people you have on Ignore by then.

:rofl:


I know the special feeling of which you speak. I try to stay out of GDP, but I can't. Goddess help me, I just can't.

Today is alright. All I hear right now is the traffic on 270 rushing past.

31. I cleaned up my ignores right before Christmas time.
Everyone on ignore was put back into play. I thought of it as my good deed for the season.

Guess what? Those assholes were put right back on ignore last night, along with about thirty others.

Fuck 'em all.

35. I now have 37.
I rarely put people on ignore but when I do it's in a mass grouping. Often it's because of an especially nasty flamewar when someone's true nastiness comes out.

I'm very much a civil, "agree to disagree" kind of person. My problem is when I've conceded and the other person then begins to take pot shots at me as a person (questions my intelligence, questions how liberal I really am, etc.). When I was young I would have gladly have argued with the person 'til the cows came home. Now I'm just tired and I've found ignore to be my friend.

Differing views I can handle-jackasses I cannot.

That or we can blame the ignore-a-thon on my period. I wasn't exactly in the best of moods as it was last night.

58. I bet the ten hours I worked before posting
last night didn't help my mood either.


And I'm sure someone will call me something bad. I've been called a racist and I've been referred to as a drain on society.

and referred to all that support said candidate as "drains on society."

That would be me-and quite proud of it.

41. My dear SallyMander!
I lost mine so long ago, I no longer remember my very first time, lol!


And as for GDP, I only read selected threads...

Ones written by people I know and trust...

The rest I generally stay the hell out of...


Although, like yourself, I do occasionally stray into one that makes me question my sanity...

*sigh*

There is so much ugliness in there, it's hard not to get disheartened. :(

I try to stay positive, and think it's great everyone is so PASSIONATE about their candidates... but that only works for so long!

He was 57 when he died.
