Hunker

It's not a talent, it's not something to be ashamed of or upset about.

It's not done on purpose.

People often don't even look at chatnames, let alone follow others round the board going "ooh, I won't post after HER, I would FAR prefer her to have killed this thread, that'd serve her right"

OK?

you seem fully conversant yourself. How pleasant.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 01:03

You posted specifically to have a go at me.

And now YOU'RE the wounded party?!

F-u-c-k-i-n-g hell...

Indeed...I think that was the point....

Hmm
VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 01:07

I don't think I said anywhere in my OP or anywhere else on MN ever that I wasn't an attention-seeker, anyway.

Would be untruthful, so I wouldn't say it

But I do think the reverse passive attention-seeking that is threadkilling is mighty tedious. Hence this thread.

ahh.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 01:10

Custy, you've gone all monosyllabic.

Am having a shitey time in RL atm.

Hence pissing about on MN.

Don't say that to garner sympathy.

Just to explain.

my mum died, i was in a car crash, my son was in hospital, someone very close to me is having a meltdown.

i guess we all have our crosses to carry.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 01:26

I give up.

I'm not playing "shit" oneupmanship with you.

I'm sorry for what you're going through, honestly.

I piss about a bit on here. I clearly offend you doing it. I can't help that, I don't think.

i rather think the point became something different once you were outright rude. A sorry would have been sufficient.

it isn't your posting in general - i commented only on this thread becuase of its relation with those last night.

It seems of late, very regular respected posters have mistook my forthright postings using abrasive vernacular in a general context ( which is how i post) as a reason to be abrasive and rude in a personal context.

LoveAngel · 28/07/2007 05:57

VVV couldnt agree more!

VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 08:47

You are right custy, people's posts are misconstrued on here more and more.

You cant even care about folk now without offending them.

oh just the usual late night antics, most likely with some alcohol partaken
Not by me i should add.....

OP posts:
VeniVidiVickiQV · 28/07/2007 09:36

I wasn't sorry I was rude though, because you were rude to me.

I am sorry you're having a shite time.

Therein lies the difference.

You clearly couldn't give a shit that I am going though, or that's what I got from your "crosses to carry" post, which seemed to be an attempt to make me think I was whinging about trivial crap (which I assure you I'm not, I just choose not to splash my personal life all over MN - not judging or criticising those who do, it's just not for me).

I am sure that I have seen you be rude before, not just forthright (your first post on this thread is rude, IMO). If I am wrong about that, I apologise also. I don't think I am though.
