Am I the only one here who seems to get an awful lot of PMs from conservatives/libertarians/religious people of various persuasions who start out with a "I just want to reach out to you" or "hear me out" or "I want you to understand where I'm coming from" and then when you blow big gaping holes in their bizarre arguments, they get all angry and tell you that you're stupid and have no soul and they're putting you on ignore and will refuse to read any more messages from you and basically throw a temper tantrum like the one most kids throw when they find out there isn't a Santa Claus?
Or does that happen to you all? :shock: :?: :?
it happens to you all right?
right?

thankfully that does not happen to me...mostly because i gave up on trying to have an intelligent conversation here
keep doing what you're doing jansun
For such an otherwise nice guy I do seem to ruffle an awful lot of feathers.
unfortunately there are still way too many people that are bothered by homosexuality...given that the average pearl jam fan is in their early 30's, this is sad
I think it's more my extreme angry liberal warrior vegan thing.
And it's kinda depressing to know that I'm sitll older than the average Pearl Jam fan.
What is the average age of a pearl jam fan nowadays?
Sorry, I get no PM's from them. I think its more the fact that your openly gay......some on here I'm sure have a real hard time with that.
ha! well it could be that...but judging by the responses you get i have a feeling there's more to it
no shit
i'm way older than the average pearl jam fan
and don't worry about those PMs...if these people mattered to you, you'd already be talking to them

So good to be in good company that way!
Yeah, I agree. For what ever reason, I only get PMs from people who like me.
...ah oh, now watch what happens...

No pun intended.
I like that the average fan's age is in the 30's (at least it seems that way). At PJ 20 nearly everyone I met was around 30 and into the band <10 years. It shows they're still relevant.
I very rarely receive pm's from 'The Enemy'.
I probably scare them. :twisted:
Nope.
What usually happens to me when I get a nasty PM from a stupid fucking numbnut whose opinion I really don't give a flying fuck about... I just tell them I don't give a flying fuck about opinions from stupid fucking numbnuts I don't give a flying fuck about.
Then, I delete their next reply without opening it.
Hail, Hail!!!
AH ok.
So I should stop having so much fun screwing with their minds?
Whatever works for you, bud.
...
I just wish there was a way to let them know that I just delete their unread replies... like a 'Return To Sender' response.
Hail, Hail!!!
Personally, I hate you because you're a vegan.
So does my proctologist. :twisted:
Look at it this way Prince, that's why I hang around here-- to makes guys like you look younger... and it gives people like me the opportunity to pretend we are younger.
Right?
Wait... what were we talking about?

I was just trying to tell you that your ways are evil because a 2,000 year old book about an invisible man in the clouds says so.
Geez. Just trying to help.
Why didn't you say anything?
I thought you were trying to sell me Amway. Sorry I said that about your mom.
I got one PM from a thread that should have gone here...it was long winded, gave me about 20 links, personal experiences...and the person was ON MY SIDE.
The most interesting part? They had signed up the same day they sent me the PM... :crazy:
I replied and it's still sitting in my 'outbox'...3 months later. They haven't come back to the board since. The internet is full of freaks.

Why not (V) (°,,,,°) (V) ?
Mine have all been warm friendly messages of support on subjects I have raised on subjects close to my heart
Not religous, political stuff
Vegan? Now that's the abomination
its like being at the end of a prank phone call
whats up with that?
I get wonderful pms... kind and loving
and have learned to ignore those I know are abrasive ...
who needs that on top of all the crap in life?
I don't normally initiate pms cause I'm shy and feel like I would be intruding maybe.
I think you can be a really funny poster ... that positive side of you,
we chuckle that is good for everyone
but you can sting like a bee when it's not even called for ...
my opinion
perhaps for attention or humor gone astray not considering another's feelings kind of like
Don Rickles ... I can see someone wanting to say hey give that a rest
Ever think that these people are secretly gay and come to you for advice for how, as conservatives/libs/religious, they can make a move on a secret admirer? I mean, it's not like it's completely unlikely that they may have gay tendencies!
It's all in jest, guys, so don't get upset by my post. Just a thought.
Hm. All that missed opportunity to get some tail.
Ugh, Lost another one to GayCo.
Some people probably can't get past that.
