yes, thin and skinned are two seperate words that take on a different meaning when joined with a hyphen.
or were you claiming that their epidemis was actually less thick than most?
actually, ALL of my sentences are lower case, not some.
i am not writing an essay for an english lit class, i am conversing on thar interweb.
many functions on systems and computers are case sensitive, so years ago folks would converse using all lower case. for some reason, it stuck with me.
you'll notice it once in awhile if you visit different places.
some people are thin-skinned about it, but most don't think it's 'poor writing skills'.
Not to be a prick,but epidermis has an r in it. :sign:

LMAO!! :laugh:
I like this guy! :thumbs:
Oh what a crock of BS cigardawg. :laugh: This is not the first time you've taken things way too personally and you conclude that I was "coming after" your "peeps" as you put it which is a completely false statement. :laugh: Please go back and look at my first post in this thread. All I said was I disagreed with the author of this thread. I did not direct any slanderous comments or insults at your "peeps" nor did I attack him. If anything it was you who "came after" me and you weren't exactly "civilized" about it. Once again, you state your opinion like it was fact and when you do that, you're going to be told you're wrong. And for God's sake why to you insist on lamenting about how a list of me correcting people's spelling would be "long?" Who gives a rat's ass how long or short it is and how is that relevant to anything? If the list is long then all that means is a lot of people screw up the King's English around here, definitely more than they should.
You are right this is not the first time that I have said something about your posts, methods, personality...whatever you want to call it. I'm not taking things too personally, Bill. I just think you are out of line and told you so. I'll tell you again. I disagreed with you and decided to speak out. Perhaps you didn't come after Patrick directly, but you sure did jump on this thread once he topped it. One might think that it hit a little close to home.
Actually, Bill, I was very civilized. As for the list, I was just pointing out the extent of your pettiness.
In this post you even admit that "Speaking in generalities tends to dilute one's arguement" so since you seem smart enough to recognize that, don't you agree that your "peeps'" "topping" this thread was kind of a lame move to begin with since he didn't reference anything specific? You sure don't seem to see things very objectively.
Bill, what the hell would you know about objectivity? Please. You see the world through Bill-colored glasses. However, you keep taking the focus off you. Who are these MANY people you referred to?
I also absolutely cannot understand why you're so hung up on claiming ggiese is "condescending" when he uses some "winky" smilie. I don't take it that way at all and I would bet that many others around here don't either.
Of course you don't, Bill. I believe I said in my post that if he did not mean it that way then I was wrong. No issue.

Bill, you could have just let it go after my last post. If you read it well, I was pretty easy going about everything. But, you couldn't...predictably. You had to come and tell me that my post was a crock of BS. That's OK. I don't have a thin skin. I've heard a lot worse. :0
Come on shawk. Jeff1101 dearly deserved to be brought up short. smurfy is like a moth to a flame.
I didn't see a single unprovoked response. Four of those can't even be considered bashing. I'm not above admitting I was wrong but you haven't cited an instance where I was. I guess it's much more time consuming than you thought. You got nothing. be my guest to keep looking.
NA
LMAO! :laugh: Talk about "predictability" you're the poster child for that around here. Why do you continue to attack and try and start trouble? This is typical behavior with you and you just can't seem to help yourself. :laugh: As I have told you before, you state your opinions emphatically as fact when that's not the case at all. I certainlly know more about "objectivity" than you do as evidenced by your posts so feel free to keep up your nonsense as you're only making yourself look foolish. Once again, you cannot justify your claim that I attacked your "peeps" so why not just drop it instead of continuing to whine about it?
Respect is a gift given.
It is usually earned
never mandated.
Respect
can be demanded.
But only by fools.
Expecting respect
is human nature.
Giving it
is human goodness.
Earning respect
takes much time.
Losing it
takes but an instant.

CC, you really should run for office. You'd be perfect, state or federal.
Who is "attacking" hale? Care to elaborate? Once again you're demonstrating your lack of understanding of simple English.Love it when someone attacks spelling and proper English, but can't do either themselves. :whistling:

Because when you've made up your mind that you're right, you argue viciously and relentlessly. I can just see the Honorable Senator from the great state of Connecticut on the floor of the senate, reading from the phone book with utterly convinced that he holds the high ground.

Doesn't it say something about baiting somewhere in the CP rules? Seriously, I don't want to get involved but, don't be childish.
