Does this forum bring out the nasty side of you???
Does this forum bring out my nasty side? Sure, when I'm in the mood to vent a bit of steam. Some people "say" things to me on this and other forums that they would never have the guts to say to my face, and from time to time (when my fuse has been sufficiently shortened by lack of sleep) then I'll call them out on it. It's also easier for people to be obtuse when they're online--or rather, it's tougher for me to tell when I'm dealing with a complete ****ing moron when they're online, whereas in real life I'm much quicker at determining whether or not somebody came out of the shallow end of the gene pool. If I'm looking for some ******* to vent on, there's no better place to find one than a public forum.

I think that pretty much says it for me. Its not heated arguments that set me off, its the one-liners from some dweeb who hasnt bothered to read the posts.

I'm not big on smilies. I have bad experiences with that tongue-sticking-out smilie, but that's not why I don't like them.
Join the club.
"Does this forum bring out the nasty side of you?"
Hell yes. I just stay out of the asylum by remembering, that it's Kass they are pissed off at, not *me*.
What comes to usage of smilies, there are occasions where they are needed, and occasions when they are not. If you are communicating with someone you are not that acquainted with, smilies are a resource, but for example in the Suomithreadi, our sarcasm can make it's way through without such instruments.
Cake and grief counseling will be available at the conclusion of the test. Thank you for helping us help you help us all!
Didn't the Village People have a song about the navy? What did it say exactly? Something about men doing each other on a sub, right? Kinda like that one they had about the Y, I think.
This forum doesn't exactly bring out the worst in me. I simply watch it with interest, learn a few things and have a bit of a laugh at some of the petty arguments I see here. I occasionally post a comment, add my thoughts to the argument and explain my point of view.
But I'm the sort who avoids getting angry. Oh anger is so futile. Even with the tendency for people to be more blunt on this than in person, I can't possibly get angry and invoke a burning rage.
