It's a freakin' message board, people

[prolesunited]

It's not a matter of life and death, and if your identity is so wrapped up in what people think of your posts or if you stalk someone to unrecommend their posts, then you need to find a more constructive use of your time and your life.

How about concentrating on the merit and depth of your posts? If you truly have something to say, people will listen and be touched. In any case, you can only control how you act and the words you type. Focus on that and screw the rest.

And with that, I'm going out to enjoy a brief spot of sunshine.

1. NO IT ISN'T!

It's all I care about and all I breath for!

[Tikki]

2. But...but...but...but..where else can you play God...

with correctly spelled words.

3. Well said.

All you can do is state your thoughts and beliefs. To assume others should listen is a bit arrogant, you do your part by making a statement, not by people hearing it.

5. Who made you the Supreme Judge of what I ought to care about? n/t

[Posteritatis]

32. I did. My bad! (nt)

[LynneSin]

6. OMG HOW DARE YOU INSULT MY LIFE'S WORK

Getting as ass many threads on the Greatest Page is all I strive to do.

I might as well just jump off a cliff now

[PeaceNikki]

7. Silly, innit?

[TexasObserver]

8. I certainly agree with the part about posters who delude themselves about their role here.

It is a message board, and those who take pride in their threads are kind of silly.

9. What I have learned in the last 24-hours is a lot of people self view seems to be reflected

only if they get on the greatest page.

[Joanne98]

10. DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?

[azmouse]

11. I'm thinking of taking bets on how long the fuss will go on.

Longer than the Jackson news will dominate tv news?
or
Longer than Palin was Gov?

[Beam Me Up]

12. No it isn't ONLY that. It is a news and information resource. n/t

[ElboRuum]

25. No, it's a link resource.

Latest Breaking News is not the source of the news or information, it is a clearing house for other sources.

[Beam Me Up]

26. I stand corrected -- a portal, then, but an important one -- at least to me. n/t

[Buzz Clik]

13. don't effin' tell me what to do. Unrecommended.

[prolesunited]

16. Your participation here

is clearly adding to the level of discourse.

Thank you for your virtual slap.

[Buzz Clik]

24. Can I unrecommend your response?

[prolesunited]

29. Sorry, that feature is not available

but thank you for playing

[Life Long Dem]

14. Yeah, they can take their lies elsewhere, because no one here is recommending lies.

I also think DU may have stopped the presses on the spin. I'll tell you, at times this place felt like the spin was coming off a conveyor belt somewhere where they manufactured the spin.

[liberal N proud]

15. People are very territorial

[snooper2]

17. Apparently for some people it IS their life

sad isn't it

[d_b]

18. here eat some unrecs

[PeaceNikki]

21. And here, kids, is an example of an attempt to use it in a passive aggressive manner in the wild.

:rofl:

[d_b]

22. my unrecs show no mercy

[tjwash]

19. I did get a chuckle that there are no will pitt threads on the greatest page right now.

Usually there are 8 or 9 of those going.

[OMC]

20. +1

[ColbertWatcher]

23. YOU AIN'T THE BOSS OF ME!

k+r.

[Joe the Revelator]

27. I HAVE BOOKS TO SELL!!!!!!

I NEED THIS MESSAGE BOARD FOR FREE ADVERTISING!! DON'T YOU SEE?????

[BlooInBloo]

28. That was the funniest "argument" I could imagine seeing.

[spiritual_gunfighter]

31. That poster reached a new low with that

in what appeared to be a 3 day personal crisis, hopefully they wont return.

[rucky]

30. So true. But it only applies to everyone but myself.

[J-Lo Biafra]

33. From this thread alone, I can check 5 species off of my douchewatching list!

Thank you! :evilgrin:
