Just recently I was accused of a few things that made me wonder - is it me, does someone have something else going on, are they just having an asshole-ish day, do they simply not like me (which is fine; I don't like everyone I come across either), are they generally like that?
Sometimes words, when put out there - whether or not erased - are still there. Maybe people learn something in the process...I know I have, and (hopefully) continue to do so.
Hope that all makes sense; my articulation skills haven't quite kicked in yet
(and Amy, I love that dimi quote!)
That was me (no secret there) and I took that down as well. I'm sorry for the slander but I was being defensive- you do take snipe shots at people. You've done it to me, you've done it to HFD. I probably should have let it go and didn't. My bad. I took the post down- that's the best I could do. And now I've broken forum rules talking about someone instead of a topic, so I will probably get the time out or ban I deserve.
I'm an American Sniper!
I wonder if it's possible - possible - that what I wrote was misread and not a "snipe"? That this happens all across the board, many times?
That's part of what I meant, above.
I know that I have had problems with expressing myself here and elsewhere. Most of the time, I don't really give a fuck, but there have been a few times when I was so misunderstood that I thought an apology was warranted.
I'm not too keen on putting lol or whatever other bullshit is necessary for folks to understand that I'm joking. I also don't have the patience to explain anything ever.
(I almost got shitcanned from a pretty great job once because the new manager thought I had something against him; he only communicated with me via AIM up to that point, and he was offended by my curt replies. We went out for a beer after work one day and hashed it out. He didn't last long, though. You can't be that sensitive on Wall Street.)

Some of mine were perceived as such. They were not meant to be but since they were seen that way, I deleted them. That's the best I can do in the past and maybe will do better in the present and future.

I guess, maybe? I tread very lightly in The Porch and AMT because it seems like people visit those forums particularly to talk at each other and not with each other. So I stick to AET and OM for the most part, but I do recall pissing off a few folks in AET kind of recently. One person twice, so I think that's probably just going to be someone who doesn't like me. And I'm more than fine with that. People don't have to like me.
I don't think I've ever posted anything anywhere just for the sake of being mean spirited, though.
(Oh, and to clarify, I was a financial news journalist during the great recession. So the lowest salaried guy on Wall Street. I've never owned a single share of anything. My favorite days on Wall Street were after the bell rang on a huge down day. Watching all of those twats in their ridiculous net jackets shaking their heads. That was about as sweet as the opening crescendo of "Highway Star" to me. The algo-driven flash crashes were a real hoot! The portfolio manager I worked with most, and with whom I'm still close friends to this day, is a dedicated short seller, a former Nader raider, so it was a good match. Fed days were fun, too. A few friends from the office and I would get burgers and beers from the Irish Punt and file our takes on the announcement from there. Usually, these were written in advance because the Fed just sat on its hands forever, and we just had to maybe make minor edits and press the go button at 2:00. Anyway, that's your TMI for the day.)

Only once that I can recall, but I stopped following the markets as soon as it was no longer a work requirement.
I’ve tried to be a better human on here. Made a mistake a few weeks ago when I was all fired up about Trump and lashed out at HFD. He’s a good dude... not my finest moment. I also wasn’t very nice when the original Canadian Politics thread was shut down. That was ALL my fault.
I am changed human being since then for sure. I dealt with the anger I felt. It was an Inside Job that day (my white whale and favourite song)
To anyone I have ever offended in the past I am incredibly sorry. Having said that getting banned for a while off here combined with a few other things forced me to look at myself and what I’d become. I sure didn’t like it 😔
Those ticket lottery threads are too much. People using cancer as extra clout as to why they should be going to a gig. Mindblowing. Its a gig ffs not life and death.

If everyone on all PJ forums learned to get along and be civil, we could bottle that up and save humanity. Admittedly, it;s a loooong shot, but what the heck, we should give it a go!
Cheers all. I'm off in search of more COFFEE!

I wonder if it's possible - possible - that what I wrote was misread and not a "snipe"? That this happens all across the board, many times?
That's part of what I meant, above.
I know that I have had problems with expressing myself here and elsewhere. Most of the time, I don't really give a fuck, but there have been a few times when I was so misunderstood that I thought an apology was warranted.
I'm not too keen on putting lol or whatever other bullshit is necessary for folks to understand that I'm joking. I also don't have the patience to explain anything ever.
(I almost got shitcanned from a pretty great job once because the new manager thought I had something against him; he only communicated with me via AIM up to that point, and he was offended by my curt replies. We went out for a beer after work one day and hashed it out. He didn't last long, though. You can't be that sensitive on Wall Street.)
It is with love for you that I say that I cannot see you on Wall Street.

ok. this explains a lot.....
it also depends on the subforum and topic too. Doesnt it? Youve been very kind and helpful in "other music"...
I don't think I've ever posted anything anywhere just for the sake of being mean spirited, though.
Just recently I was accused of a few things that made me wonder - is it me, does someone have something else going on, are they just having an asshole-ish day, do they simply not like me (which is fine; I don't like everyone I come across either), are they generally like that?
Sometimes words, when put out there - whether or not erased - are still there. Maybe people learn something in the process...I know I have, and (hopefully) continue to do so.
Hope that all makes sense; my articulation skills haven't quite kicked in yet
(and Amy, I love that dimi quote!)
That was me (no secret there) and I took that down as well. I'm sorry for the slander but I was being defensive- you do take snipe shots at people. You've done it to me, you've done it to HFD. I probably should have let it go and didn't. My bad. I took the post down- that's the best I could do. And now I've broken forum rules talking about someone instead of a topic, so I will probably get the time out or ban I deserve.

Those ticket lottery threads are too much. People using cancer as extra clout as to why they should be going to a gig. Mindblowing. Its a gig ffs not life and death.
This one gets me so hard , I lost my father , uncles , aunts , a friend and more to cancer. Never something I would bring up if I did not get concert tickets to something.
Please don't take that as I don't care , however not sure if they think someone is going to just give up a ticket because someone said they have cancer.
I also and I hate saying this fear someone is just making it up to try to get tickets.

(Oh, and to clarify, I was a financial news journalist during the great recession. So the lowest salaried guy on Wall Street. I've never owned a single share of anything. My favorite days on Wall Street were after the bell rang on a huge down day. Watching all of those twats in their ridiculous net jackets shaking their heads. That was about as sweet as the opening crescendo of "Highway Star" to me. The algo-driven flash crashes were a real hoot! The portfolio manager I worked with most, and with whom I'm still close friends to this day, is a dedicated short seller, a former Nader raider, so it was a good match. Fed days were fun, too. A few friends from the office and I would get burgers and beers from the Irish Punt and file our takes on the announcement from there. Usually, these were written in advance because the Fed just sat on its hands forever, and we just had to maybe make minor edits and press the go button at 2:00. Anyway, that's your TMI for the day.)

To anyone I have ever offended in the past I am incredibly sorry. Having said that getting banned for a while off here combined with a few other things forced me to look at myself and what I’d become. I sure didn’t like it 😔
that's the start and the end of the story."
its okay. we all snap on each other from time to time. i can be better, and i will continue to work on it.
