lolThat's called 'fronting' or posturing, or as we used to say back in the day, being a poseur
some folks are all about appearances...

I don't worry too much about going out of my way to keep in with people here. I'm a nice guy and like to get on with people here, and I even consider a few people to be friends but if I have to sacrifice my honesty so as not to piss someone off, I don't think I would be two-faced about it. I'm pretty sure I'm the same in PMs as on the board."I remember one night at Muzdalifa with nothing but the sky overhead, I lay awake amid sleeping Muslim brothers and I learned that pilgrims from every land — every colour, and class, and rank; high officials and the beggar alike — all snored in the same language"0

but youre right, you just gotta laugh.
there's one person on here like that....gossips behind everyone's back, and it use to bother me but now I just realize how pathetic they really are. and I mean EVERYONE - including me....so at least they are not "bias." I am not gonna go into any further detail. the sad thing is, that they think they are so in control...
I count my blessings everyday that I am not like that- well not yet! :eek: yeah, I dont think I am ever gonna be THAT crazy. I mean I am crazy already. but I dont want to be a-hole, bitch-crazy. Nice+dumb crazy is good for now.
And um, I just like pearl jam??? Wishlist, Pearljam and partying. Thats what I have time for. sorry your "board crush" talks more to me ( platonically + sibling-like) even though youre um, married.
Yeah, I love my pjam.
I am watching DEXTER.
edit: sorry if I am being negative- thats not the vibe I want to create. I am trying to laugh about the situation. ^ Maybe I was giving a subtle "wake-up call" in the most indirect way. *tongue-sticking out and rolleyes combined if there was more room*Rarghstarfarian.0 -

humm.. I am a little "deeper" in my PMs.. like I talk to people more in depth about a variety of things in there. I guess because we can't get too chatty on the board. Even though its hard not to sometimes.
Not everyone is always going to get along, its like real life.. I guess you just have to cut your losses sometimes.0
