    I'm pretty sure you can "ignore" someone if they bother you that much. I didn't realize how very serious the forums can be lol.

    Collar is on my friends list. Obviously he doesn't bother me that much.

    You must be a real blast at parties!
    Well, I wanted to let you know that I removed you from my list. I have never done this in my life on FB and the like.... but my grandmother once told me a tale which had the moral - "With friends like these, who needs foes".

    I bumped the threads because I am off for the holidays and considering the jolly chit-chat crowd, I truly wanted the members to giggle and laugh at some of the old threads which were downright funny. I mean who ever has heard of that kind of stuff. Again, I performed it for everyone to take some time to laugh over the holiday period. Some of the threads are even garnering responses and new discussions which means it wasn't too bad after all.

    But you provided a podium for all the people who have harboured a grievance against me because they were fixated on some disagreement they had with me on a thread and have maintained the vendetta for life enough to deem me their forum enemy and are using this podium to have a go at me and even tag me. I don't know why you did it. Maybe it makes you feel better to get on that high horse but.... good for you.

    I have built some real life friendship here. There was someone who took immense pain to let me know I accidentally posted my home address in one of my pictures.... and I value them. If she ever needed something, I'll be the first one to drive down to nee jersey ;)

    Well, I won't bump threads again because it is not a good idea to have fun in "chit-chat". I think I'll apologize for bumping threads to those who were offended severely by having to read them.

    Awkwaaaard.

    @Cutaway_Collar I apologise for calling you a Jacka$$. And thats a sincere apology from a real person. Wether it matters to you or not.

    I think the Christmas Holidays get stressful and anxious, for alot of people including myself. Your right, there are real life friendships online. And I love Elenathegreat. She is greatest person. Would love to potty talk about her farts and beans right now. But shes not as much having fun on the threads right now like she used to. Just when life hits you in the gut with the passing of loved ones, sometimes it hard, and you can't even joke about the farts. But for myself, even thou Christmas is still hard for me, and I miss my Dad so much. At least it made me laugh about the fact, he had some good fart jokes. :D So have a nice day. :)

    Folks, I truly apologize. I didn't think people will be offended. I am sorry. I am really being sincere.

    Wow.

    I don't think apologies were necessary.

    I was just saying to stop bringing up the past.

    So you removed me off your friends list over that.

    Ok.

    I never really understood the reason for keeping a friend list here. Now I really don't understand it. It so often seems to turn into a soap opera. It's great just keeping the conversations on the forums, imo.

    Some things are too personal to share on the forums.

    That's the thing. Anything typed into an email, onto a wall, in a PM, comments on a website, whatever, isn't ever private. It just gives the illusion of privacy. When these social media friendships go sour, and they often do, the so called private conversations get vengefully spilled out onto the public forums. MFP and pretty much any other conversation website is littered with such examples. (I'm not saying this is the case with Cutaway and Thisonetimeathegym - I'm just speaking in generalities about this quirky online cultural drawback.)

    Posting private information on the forums usually results in a warning. I guess it makes you think more carefully about who you accept as a friend and how much information you share.

    And this is why people get mad at me for keeping things so vague.

    Do you want me to re-add you?!? Jonathan and David became friends and enemies on and off a lot and they are such a celebrated pair in the old testament.

    I was just saying to calm down. Took offense where none was meant.

    You often provoke people to great lengths (not me, cause I don't have those levels of kittens to give to online banter). You tell them to chill. So chill.

    I got nothing against you.

I don't know why you did it. Maybe it makes you feel better to get on that high horse but.... good for you.

    I have built some real life friendship here. There was someone who took immense pain to let me know I accidentally posted my home address in one of my pictures.... and I value them. If she ever needed something, I'll be the first one to drive down to nee jersey ;)

    Dude, I did not have you pegged as being so dramatic. It's not that serious....seriously.

    People have bad days. Not everyone can be 100% all the time. Joy and pain is like sunshine and rain.

    Btw, your profile pic is beautiful.

    You have never heard of hump day progress pics?
    Yes. People show photos of their bums on their walls or something like that? It's often discussed on the forums for whatever reason. I guess I'm really missing out. How utterly fabulous and, of course, very classy. In real life do they moon their actual human friends who they converse with in the flesh? That's just another reason why I don't want any imaginary computer friends.

    I never liked hump day pics but as soon as I see a few I have said a few Hail Marys and moved on with my life.

    To be honest, the moment I see hump day pics, I have dropped them from my feed. I do not endorse obscenity nor obscene elements being discussed. A person famously discussed how she has never tried on uncircumcised tools.... as much flabberghasted as I was... I am glad I don't get to read those anymore because I have no patience for that kind of talk on my feed. I tightly manage my feed so that it's mostly exercise feeds or I keep the right kind of folk on my list who don't go too far.

    Somewhere deep down I am still a prude.

    Lol. Are you talking about my post about never having tried on uncircumcised tools...or is there someone else on here who shares my same goals and aspirations? :joy:

    And that post is famous??? :lol: It's weird you remember it so well...

    Cutaway don't be low key bitter I unfriended you :joy:


    ......Edited bc ridiculous typos

    The thing about the tools is that they are attached to human beings.

    The human should matter more. JM2C.
