Trying to type while explaining crap to my dad… terrible

Now I am happy I didn't notice because I would have thought all the extra letters was some hidden message. As my imagination takes off...

"Halliwax doesn't post like this. Very articulate and precise, likely proofs all his posts several times. Something...is....wrong......Oh my gosh, Halliwax needs help! Maybe, being held where his captors can see the screen but they want the RPF posts to continue so everything looks casual. OK, here is an extra L and an O and another L. LOL? Wait, no, he's too kind to insult people directly but .... But yes. He is mocking the grammar Nazis by hiding extra letters he knows only we will see. Diabolical. I felt better about this when it was a hostage situation."

If I’m posting during the day, 90% of the time I’m riding shot gun, so sometimes it’s the bumps that trigger the typos lol

Or that’s the excuse I’ll use

See I get away with it because I post typos all the time, people expect it and are not surprised or worried by it. :)

(I often post from my phone and I use swipe to type...sometimes it guesses WAY wrong on what I was trying to write and I don't notice it).

LIFE LESSON: lower the bar each chance you get and pretty soon you can just step over it.
 
Dude, that's kind of a low blow there...I mean, he was probably feeling under the weather. Not to mention he got cut short by that battle because he was only half paying attention to Obi-Wan during the fight.

Frankly, I feel kind of divided over who really won that fight...
Making it waaayyy easy for Maul when it's time to go to the gym: "Upper body training on Monday, Wenesday and Friday, while my lower body rests...literally":lol:
 
I do the same thing!

"Name three songs by the Modal Nodes"
How about several:
1) "Mad About Me."

2) "If I Only Could Let Go and Cry."

3) "Dune Sea Special"

4) "Tears of Aquanna"

5) "Worm Case"

6) "The Sequential Passage of Chronological Intervals"

7) "Solitary World"

 


You know what's a normal, rational response? Addressing another human being with a polite conversation and not assuming the worst about them before talking to them. If your first instinct is to "test" the opposite gender about their film preferences and then dismiss them entirely if they don't align to your personal tastes, then that speaks volumes about how you think of and treat other people as a general rule, and more likely, how you think of the opposite gender, broadly speaking.

That post exemplifies everything wrong with modern fandom by being needlessly antagonistic and judgemental before ever engaging in a real discussion. If she ever approached me (assuming I'd never seen her post) and the topic came up, and she told me Last Jedi was her favorite. I would say, "that's cool." Tell her I'm an OT guy and likely talk about something else. Even learning someone is a fan doesn’t typically prompt my interest enough to discuss the series. I'd much rather talk about other things.

Despite what many fans think, you can have strong opinions about a film, and just because I feel Last Jedi ruined everything, doesn't mean that my first impulse would be to "test" another person about what they like or don't like. I'd rather meet someone where they are, and treat them as respectfully as they would treat me.

The only reason I've been vocal about my distaste here or elsewhere online is because for the last twelve years I've been told to shut up and that my opinion isn't allowed or welcome and I'm often met with straight on antagonistic responses, or passive aggressive nods towards disrespect. Just because I don't agree with someone, doesn't automatically mean I hate them as a person. My friends like all kinds of crap that I can't stand, but they're still my friends.

This all or nothing bull has to stop. There's room for everyone.
