online drama is so funny to me

to see how people on here get into it & bicker back & forth and for what??

its amusing.

but gets old too, lol.

it's like ok enough already, stop goin off on your tangent & just respond to what the person's inquiry was in the 1st place.

agree to disagree, ya know?  come on ppl!

hahaha

yeah, but everyone has an opinion about other people's communication styles too.   One person see's it as effective whereas the other person see it as ridiculous.  There's no way around miscommunication.

communication styles don't much come into play when the only mode of expression is the written word.  most of the time, written language is pretty straight forward, if it's used correctly.  i mean, we're talking about basic literacy, not the subtleties of verbal and non-verbal communication.

when it's a second language, of course, that's a different situation.  i don't expect to be well-understood when i'm speaking/writing french or greek.

Hence, the creation of emoticons!!!   I HATE emoticons!!!

i dont know... just because your words are written doesnt mean that all of a sudden you're a robot.   people have they're own writing style that usually reflects on their personalities and i think thats the way it should be.

Which for most people is straight forward, but there are those with forms of Dyslexia which may make things slightly harder for them.

Just a quick question...How do I get my legs not to touch, get rid of my muffin top and gain muscle while dieting?  Also, which fast will help me to achieve all of these things in 48hours?  I know somebody out there has the answer I want!!!

Can anyone post links to some really funny drama posts? I honestly haven't found any.

 Search my posts. Drama follows me everywhere.

As for you Spiro, I find you to have a sarcastic and intelligent wit which I enjoy (most of the time), even when you choose to pick on me!  However, I have seen plenty of other people on here who are vicious and take things too far sometimes.  There is a line, and sadly too many people on here and in other chat rooms take it too far.

 

Aw, thanks. And I have picked on you? Sorry :( I get my vagina in a wad and just go on bitchy autopilot sometimes. I know I can be pretty bad and let's face it, drama doesn't follow me. I can be quite the drama epicenter. It's my superpower.

I want a super power!!!!

You haven't actually picked on me Spiro, but I've run in fear of you a few times!!!  Take on Spiro in an online debate?  No way!  I'd lose that battle!!!  But just wait... some day that passive-aggressive side of me will be just plain aggressive and then I'll have the moderators all over my butt!!!

OOOH passive aggressive people are my weakness. I NEVER win a battle of wills with someone like that a la my husband. It drives me UP A WALL.

Here's the spirochete secret: ever want to REALLY annoy me, ignore my post. I hate it.
