BurmaKitty don't post here no more

Then I had lunch.

It ain't the band he's bashing.

Ain't it ain't 'someone'.

I meant
And it Ain't Someone

Ain't it ain't 'someone'.

Sorry, I was being flippant; I have an averse reaction to I'm-leaving-with-the-last-word posts. I've no idea what the significance of the post is -- it looked like "the band you like sucks."

oh, thank you Millar. You made me smile with that one.

No, I guess you maybe can't see the fake return email address. It's cruel/threatening...as if he will have my child taken away for following second rate bands around the country. And even if he didn't 'mean it' the next day, it doesn't matter. It's on the board. Suppose he wants to give me a taste of my own messageboard medicine, so yes...I pretty much have to give up posting since it incenses him when I talk about 'that band' and 'that band' is pretty much all I ever talk about. So you see, it's pretty quiet around the house lately.

I've been in college too long, that didn't even occur to me.

Well, that's different. That's shitty. Yeah, I misread completely then, sorry about that.

I just really wanted to get past the point of being harassed on the Internet at some time in my life, but it looks like that will never happen since he or someone else will always be mad at me because I am stubborn or stupid or whatever and a good way to get back at me is to post some hate on line. I'm just tired of the hate. I really have no more room for it in my life. There are plenty of REAL and ACTUAL shitty people out there doing REAL and ACTUAL shitty stuff that this seems so trivial. Not that his hurt feelings are trivial. The manner in which it's dealt with are and only causes more hurt feelings since I'm bound to act out in response with some equally hurtful stuff that's just as trivial.

like this:

MISSION OF BURMA
MISSION OF BURMA
MISSION OF BURMA

there i said it.

hey, dude, it's just a band.

and I gave em up for lent since the music was causing so much strife in the homelife.

ok, with that said, I really like the board and all the people on it. I just wish that when someone has an actual real life personal complaint with me, that they take it up with me. If they feel they can't because of continued lies and whatnot on my part, then I suppose if they want to continue the cycle without verifying whether or not I am lying, there is nothing I can do about it but stand back, stay off the board, and let em go for it.

I'll read your board I'm sure ...and eventually try to put my two cents in again when I stop hurting for long enough.

sorry this all came out on my thread. apologies.

what is the point that jess is trying to make?

You guys and gals are kind, but the comment I quoted is a personal comment to me from someone I know. For some reason I don't mind being attacked on the Internet so much by people who only contact me that way, but when someone who can call me on the phone or speak to me face to face has to yell at me on the board, I can't help but feel uncomfortable about talking about music or whatever on the board. I just want them to know that if that's the effect they want - to keep me off the board - then they did/are doing a good job. It's not the most original tactic...apparently this has been learned from the expert(s) at humiliating me that have preceeded him.

Look, I am not knocking the tactic. It is a good one since I am a compulsive message board poster, this is a good way to tie my hands so to speak. I don't necessarily embarrass easily since I always come back and ask for more humiliation eventually, but at least they can pat themselves on the back for having some power over me.

and sure, you can put down Mission of Burma all you want. whatever. That doesn't make them any less great of a band. I am sorry if you feel threatened by their greatness. There is nothing I can do about that.

Martin, you are very sweet too, but I know who wrote it since there is only one person who would be motivated at that date and time to do so...and I know he wrote it out of momentary anger. I suppose my point is that THAT kind of threat doesn't belong here, and if my posting on the board gives him reason to threaten me here, on the board, then everyone would be best served if I don't post on the board.

I understand I can have a tendency to piss people off with my opinions. That does belong here. But personal issues about my off line behaviour are best dealt with off line. I have already learned the hard way that the boards are for 'everyone' ...and not just my own personal soap opera.

And I'm like Jess in not understanding what is going on and wondering if what seem to be allusions to Mission of Burma groupiedom are in fact that or something else entirely. And yes the thought is unsettling.

note: google 'clint conley' and the #1 hit is an interview by nath!!

sorry for the continued confusion...

'yes' it is about Mission of Burma and it's NOT about Mission of Burma. HE knows what it's about.

and yes, I have told this person that I don't think this is an appropriate method of punishment for me, but hey...maybe that's what makes it ever so appropriate.

so anyhow, I think the thread was more or less just an acknowlegement to him that I found his cruel comment and didn't think it was right and didn't think his posting it was helping to solve anything. I also thought I shouldn't post on everyone else's threads if he is going to put this non sequitor type personal stuff on there to hurt me following my posts. I also wanted to let everyone know that I am not NOT posting because I think I am too cool for your board or I have nothing silly to say or that I don't enjoy my posts being made fun of. That's what I live for. I just don't want to ruin every thread with any rude comments to follow in response to my silly comments.

Even though I thought most every poster on this board was pretty darn nice, I am overwhelmed by the fact that you all posted on this! Wow.

anyhow, like I said, when things calm down I'll probably post on other threads again.

huh??

What did you study? And is it related to the job you do now?
