Drama, Rantings and Room Interrelationships
by Stormy_is_She
Jesus... step away from the rag publication for a bit, and wow - what a homecoming! My sympathies go out to all the people who truly want to believe others and have compassion for those peoples' personal plights. While YOUR heart may be in the proverbial "right place", unfortunately, the nature of online folly, creates opportunity for others to role play and lie. You gotta really use yer "sniffer" to sort the shitters of Love Stinks out. Use perspective my dears. Don't be offended when some offer that well used phrase "it's only online." Being behind a keyboard can be magical, in the sense that it allows you to travel the world without leaving your chair, without shaving, without bathing and without wearing yer underwear. As people's personalities are very diverse, so are their ethics, their attitutes, their agendas and their "buttons". I trust until I see that whoever it is, isn't worth that trust. Then, I do not attempt to sugarcoat the offensive interaction, and will NOT pretend it didn't occur. Whats that old saying - keep your friends close and your enemies closer? Try to keep perspective in the room. When you notice someone being inconsistent - it's a telltale sign of a "player." We all have quirks - but bullshit regarding marital status, health, and inserting insults about people's children are always unwelcome and THE "wake up call" you must'nt ignore. (Unless you enjoy the drama crap.) I need my daily dose of my online buddies. I adore their humor, their warmth and their unique additions to our group. Haters/players/gamers/fakers/trouble makers like Val, Pigboy, Dreamy... can only have as much power as we GIVE them. Forgive me though people... I too, am only human. I DO enjoy making an initial announcement (or four), regarding the stentch which seems to be radiating from their wicked direction, As much as I adore "my people"... I DO STILL understand that online is ONE dimensional - there is so much more to each person. The nature of conversing via text, makes misunderstanding a given in many cases. YOu really don't "KNOW" someone, unless you've met them, and walked a mile in their shoes. From what I've read in the rag... some of you have shoes I wouldnt DREAM of APPROACHING, let alone WEARING. Youngins in our room... I am a Mama. I have an inborn desire to spare you from needless lessons in pain. My biggest word of advice... if / when , you smell a rat - don't light a candle or insert a fragrant plug in to cover the smell. Listen to your instincts and stay clear of potential problems. (And try not to assume it's just Colin.) Be good to you. In a world of endless chaos, you of all people, need to be good to you. Now get the hell offa yer lazy asses and fetch me some coffee.
