Do I post to much? Am I starting to seem really annoying to people? Am I an hindrence to the existence of other people? Should I disappear to relieve the thoughs of other people that their current focus of annoyance is no longer here? Or is my existence based on such annoyance, do I only exist according to what other people percieve me as annoying? How and where do I exist on this plane, who or what am I? Am I selfish? Am I nothing but my own flawed perception of existence? Why? What? Where? How? And when? Am I me?

You're highly egocentric and more than a little bit of a spaz. Or, to put it another way, you're a male teenage nerd. It's natural. Just, I don't know, try to settle down a little. If I was actually going to expend the energy to be annoyed at people, I'd pick the Hatrack bimbo brigade over the teenage puppy crowd. Both groups have been out in force the last few months.

Not that you post too much, but you do seem to make more threads than are required. For instance, I believe you had two threads today about Robin Williams. It would have been better etiquette to contain the topic to the one thread. This message board moves pretty fast, so we try to not steal spots on the first page from other potential threads.

Oh and Niki says: "He posted a thead asking whether he talks too much, that alone should tell him something" [Wink]

Or to put it another way, you currently have 7 threads on the first page. We have hundreds of active posters, and no single member should have that many threads. Try to limit yourself to 2 or 3 at a time.

Hatrack has a bimbo brigade? Sweet! Where the heck have I been? And is that more or less than a bimbo platoon?

A Hatrack Bimbo brigade? More details, please. I was noticing the puppy behavior but didn't notice anything else.

I apparently have a different conception of what the word bimbo means than many other people. I nthis case, I was sort of meaning people who are like puppies, but lack the "Look at me! Everybody, look at me! Over here!!!!!" aspect and instead have their narcissism take he form of not really caring what's going on around them. They are largely oblivious and giggle at almost anything. Bimbos ask Sid if he's the Sid Meier. Bimbos believe pretty much anything you tell themm unless it concerns them, because they don't think about it too hard.

As I said in ElJay's thread, on reflection, I don't think I should have written that. I'd delete it if that was something I do and if people hadn't picked up on it. As it is, it's not something I'll say again and I'd really hate for it to get in the way of Sid's cry for attention here.

*waves hand* This is not the potentially offensive comment that you are looking for.

I posted that when I was feeling very depressed, made me a tad better, I'm getting a lecture practically every day punished again and again for abosultly stupid reasons, my parents are acting irrational at times and don't listen when I point this out to them, especially when they contradict themselves. So yesterday I was depressed, today meh, my birthday is in 3 days. So hopefully I'll be appy then. Now CS: Source or Half Life 2....

It's not gone. We just moved it to the secret forums...wait, I mean, yeah, pity it's gone.

One thing that is...I mean was...was on the other thread is that I didn't intend any sexual connotations with the bimbo comment at all. That's not actually the way I see the term, but I realize that other people do. Oops.

The word bimbo is tricky for me as well. Growing up, the word bimbo mean pretty much "dumb blonde", except without the blondeness.

See, I've known very intelligent people and not particularly attractive ones that I'd classify as bimbos - or is that bimboes? It's more common (at least in public perception) among the attractive because the pretty can get away with so much more self-absorbtion, but I always considered that secondary. The defining part of it for me was the shallowness of thought fueled by the persons narcisism. As I said, obviously other people don't share this view.

edit: PC, I don't think so, but I think we might make a Hatrack mimbo march.

I just love how you can determine whether or not someone is narcissitic based on a few week's observation in Hatrack.

Seriously, what do you two want? Do you want me to admit that I'm a bad person? Fine, I'm a bad person. I'm arrogant and egocentric and whatever else you want to say about me.

Get this. I'll concede whatever you want because it doesn't matter. People are going to read what I wrote and form an opinion of me based on that. I highly doubt your snide little comments are going to alter people's opinions (of me anyway).

So what are you trying to accomplish? I get that we're not going to be exchanging Valentine's day cards. You don't need to keep reminding me. So what, are you trying to make the place just a little bit nastier? Or do you think that being somewhat tiresome is going to get me to change my wicked ways?

My email's in my profile. Feel free to send me all the hate mail you want, but what purpose does it serve to say nasty things about me here?

You were saying quite nasty things about other people, in general without identifying them, and in specific. So please, drop the victim act, OK? (Nice set of passive-aggressive attacks, btw).

I guess I must belong to one of those insulting and insensitive groups you mentioned earlier. Jackass.

Mr Squirkies makes more sense more often than most of us here, though he's stirred up a bimbo's nest with his comment here.

So I pay attention to him.

Yay! I'm not (neccesarily) narcissitic!
