Flick, flick, flick
see my finger, see my nose, pick it, flick it, there it goes.
I think, I could almost have gone a lifetime without hearing that one, its kinda like "Here I sit, all broken hearted... Though Id XXXX etc etc"Quote:

This is a good forum, and the members here made me feel accepted well...There are other forums and they even have members who either pm me or state outright on the open forum, that they feel that I being someone from a different place, should not think that I am smart and they stated that they think I am trying to be a wise guy or a smart *** when I shared something that is not to their liking. Till this moment, I have yet to see any of the members here do such. I feel respected and accepted. Thank you guys and gals...for being such nice people and friends.Quote:

My observation has been that it is a lack of sense of humor that gets many of the people that have been banned in trouble. To a great extent "wise guys" do fit in here better than at other sites.
This group pokes fun at each other and it is the kind of humor that requires a certain IQ threshold to understand. It takes a certain intelligence level to get along with the folks on this forum, an IQ level that is not required to function on most other survival boards.
Some people take our kidding as an insult and rather than come back with their own "poke in the eye" they get mad and go into a vicious rant that is devoid of the humor, start a bunch of inappropriate stuff and get themselves into trouble.
Many people in our group have also been parents or teachers and we have well developed BS filters. We call the BS and juvenile behavior and claims for what it is very quickly. When did this happen? What were the specifics? Show us the pictures? How have you done that for all these years without being arrested? All are common questions around here. And there is sometimes a sudden shock when a newbie challenges us with "do you think I am lying?" and our answer is "YES!". These people are not used to being challenged, so they go into their rant mode and get banned rather than being allowed to take over the forum as they had intended.
With fewer and fewer "survival forums" on the internet they gravitate here much quicker than they once did.
If you come here seeking quick praise you had better forget it! You have to stick around, put up with our questions, teasing and jokes, ask/answer enough questions to let the group know you are "normal" and get to know us and let us get to know you. During that time you will learn the etiquette of the site and how to function, question and politely tell someone they are full of crap without getting banned.
Fitting in around here is worth the effort. I have never been a member of another forum where I felt I "knew" some of the members on a personal level. There are many here that have shared a campfire, and others I would like to meet face to face because I have come to know them and would really like to shake their hand (minus the booger flippers) at least once.
But never forget, our mods will ban a long term member if they go off them deep end! I have been here for 5 years and almost every year a member with more than 4,000-5,000 posts will go completely bonkers and require forced exile.
Good post......can't rep ya though....Somebody?
Got it.Quote:

....That was a while back......LOL....This should be 16000....on a banning thread no less......Go figure.
Seems like that 4000 to 5000 is like 100K miles mark...some are all used up...some have made it that far, and will keep going for a while.
I remember when I thought 1,000 was a big deal. I worried that I was on the computer too much.
That was back before I retired.
Now it's log in here or go to the senior center. I can't cope with the senior center. Those old folks are crazy! Some of them think they are still voting for Roosevelt!
And you don't want to even talk, think about, or imagine a belly dancing class where the youngest participant is 65!
OH GOD, MY EYES, MY EYES!!!!!
I like to think Im a wise guy, but just like Jack Daniels... everyone should know there limits!
