JOKE.
Not changed in the least.

If I'd been serious, I'd've said something more along the lines of,

"Excuse me?!? Did you HAVE to be such a jerk, Sycamore? I'M the one who's miserable here..."

But I didn't. I stuck a lot of smileys in there and didn't use your full name.
Maybe we did have a misunderstanding, and I'm willing to concede on that.

All of this could have been avoided if you hadn't retaliated by making comments on my personality, such as "unstable," when you don't know me, and cursing me out; a simple "just checkin' on TS, cause you know how women can be.. ;) " or something along those lines, would've been a more appropriate reply. I don't take kindly to being called any of the names you have thus far called me.

TS and my relationship may be presently precarious, and I may be emotional about it, but even he has more respect for me and doesn't talk to me like that. And he knows me better than anyone else. I'll be damned if I'll let a stranger do so.

Those smileys had no smiles.

And as far as the name...plenty of people make "negative" comments to me using "Syc."

Sorry, Sidhe, but you DO seem a bit unstable to me...note that I specifically said "seem." Perhaps you consider it venting or whatever, but to call your husband out like you did on this board, not to mention the serious tone of your poem and my education and experience...it's not hard to draw the line, IMO. Of course, I'm no expert and I'm not around you all the time, hence the use of "seem."

Why do you care what I called you? Seriously. I think that you got what you deserved, though. *shrugs* You kept coming back for more, even though you said you would stop...twice.

Of course your husband isn't going to say what I did...not unless he has a death wish.

Respect is a two-way street. I feel that I've shown you respect in the past, which you have then shit on. Therefore, I do not feel obliged to show you any respect. Now, if you don't give me any more crap for a while, and if I ask about anything that's unclear in the future...we'll see...

You've never been pleasant to me, in my memory. It seems that you felt the need to take TS's "side," when taking sides was not what I was asking people to do, and to do it in a very insulting way.

But, regardless, this is getting really tedious, and I'm sure it's getting boring for everyone else....

I'll simply chalk it up on both sides to a basic aversion and possible misunderstandings, and move on.

Example #1

Example #2

And who supported you when you wanted your own forum?

I didn't feel a need to take his side. I knew of something going on between you two, and seeing how you come across, I was a bit concerned about him. I don't know what is really going on with you guys, and it's really none of my business. For all I know, he's a raging asshole who has a saint of a wife.

And as far as being insulting...like I said before, I think you had it coming.

Please do.

#1 I don't get, and #2 is probably the pleasantest we've been to each other.

Nope, I've never claimed to be a saint. Never, never. Matter of fact, I've said I can be hard to live with. I can just be reeeeeeally emotional, and TS is....er, NOT. That's not to say he's a "raging asshole" (sounds like a serious case of hemorroids...ewwww)...just that I'm far more emotional than he is, and that sometimes tends to lead to misunderstandings and/or conflict---this thread a case in point.

I express my emotions, but only after they've been bottled up for so long that I can't keep them in anymore, and that's the part that can sometimes make me hard to live with.


And as to misunderstanding--I can see the smiley confusion. My bad.

I'm not going to jump on someone and use a shortening of a nic, though. Just as one's mother will use one's full name when she's pissed off, so will I.

However, nobody's perfect, hence the poem. And just for future reference, no matter how hurt or angry I was, I would never cause injury to someone I loved. I'd be more likely to harm myself. Hope that lays your fears--present and/or future-- for TS to rest...


Sidhe

DAMN. i thought that would slip by. couldn't really come up with anything appropriately demeaning. not that working at subway is particularly demeaning .....unless you have a psychology degree or something.....but...limp wristed? i thought the barrage of insults at the end of that paragraph more than made up for it.

oh well. anyway, there is no winning with sycamore. you could embarrass him publicly and he'll just re write it in his own memory. so whatever. look at it right now....he's taking my apology for attacking his personal appearance as victory in the argument we had when he and dagney blindsided me. that's fine. it's all in good fun. i probably wouldnt kick his ass in real life. i was actually able to be civil to him at forks tm after that first real spat. partially out of respect for the host, and partially from apathy.

i don't really get the 'nigger' corellation, though. there are plenty of other things i'd call me if i were him.

I think this is the best place to go to have a really good online flamefest.... If the Cellar were a country, it'd be the national sport. You have to admit, though, it keeps one's retort mechanism in good, sharp, working order...

We really should start taking bets...maybe we could have a weekly celebrity Cellarite deathmatch.... :lol:


Sidhe

Don't strain your arm patting yourself on the back there.

And of course you won't even try to kick my ass in my real life. Not unless you're willing to piss the rest of your life away. I don't think you're THAT stupid.

On second thought...

Go read the thread, then.

Yes it does. Now how about moving along, eh?

When I called for a truce, I meant everbody.

(shit, how did I get to be the UN? I fucking hate the UN ... can I be the League of Nations instead, maybe?)

If Wolf has to pull this thread over there are going to be some veerrry sorry cellarites back there....

Without her gun, it's a fair fight here. :)

Sometimes I experience a brief ethical twinge when entering into a battle of wits with an unarmed person, but I get over it very, very quickly.

Just remember...I've got dirt on you.

My money's on Wolf in any number of scenarios.
