Rant!!!!!

[kurrginatorX]

With all due respect to "Pet Peeves" and "I Fucking Hate," I decided to create this thread to give people a place to really unburden themselves over whatever issues may be bothering them at the moment. Don't hold back. Be it five words, five sentences, five paragraphs, or five pages, unload, get it off your chest, get that monkey off your back, Jack (or Jill), and become a better you.

I'm going to go straight for the throat with this first one. Recently, as well as in the past, I have posted in Author's Hangout. Being an English major, I choose my words carefully while constructing my posts simply because I do not want there to be any misunderstanding as to the message I wish to convey, and yet, time and time again I find one person or another replying with, "I think what you really mean is …" No, what I really mean is exactly what I posted, word for word. If I had meant anything else, I would have worded it differently to reflect as much.

With the most recent post, eight people responded before I looked to see what was being said, and of the eight, only two seemed to understand what I was getting at. With the others … All I can say is that anyone who doesn't know me and wishes to think he or she can fathom what goes on in my mind really doesn't have a clue as to how truly lost s/he is, and for the record, the post is now dead to me. I have no desire to go back, regardless of what may be said.

This is not about anyone agreeing with me. I do not make posts with the hope that everyone agrees with me, that everyone hinges on my every word. If you have a difference of opinion, fine, but don't tell me that I am wrong simply because my opinion differs from yours.

" Thank you's" go a long way in my opinion. Showing any appreciation in general,for that matter. Why is this most basic of principles soo difficult for some in our society to grasp?!!

Treating all people equally with human decency and dignity should not be a radical political idea..

Queue jumping - why do people think it is ok to do this so. It makes me angry when in stores someone pushes in in front because they don't want to wait and are in a hurry.

To those people that do it - none of us like to wait around and stand in line, its just we are accepting of the current situation. We too may also be in a hurry

I am a respectful, chivalrous person. I hold doors open for people, male and female alike. As KinkyLaughs said, a simple "Thank You" shouldn't be asking too much.

I think I remember that thread in the AH. Wasn’t it like two weeks ago?

Let it go, bro. Be Zen. But in fairness, if a whole lot of people aren’t picking up what you’re putting down, maybe you should try to put it down differently? Just a thought; it’s not like I’ve got a dog in the fight.

I love rants.

Wasn't sure you read this part, which makes your advice moot.

Okay.

I guess I didn’t pick up what you were putting down either. Rant on!

Nice. I am an equal opportunity door- holder as well.

Hollywood has its fair share of gay and lesbian actors and actresses who take heterosexual romantic parts on television and in movies. Two names that immediately come to mind are Jim Parsons and Ellen DeGeneres, respectively. Though very vocally homosexual, they are not so anal about their same-sex preference, thus they have no problem pretending to be otherwise.

I chose this as my opener because here at Literotica we have people who are openly gay and lesbian, yet it seems that some of them--you--are so tightly wound to your sexuality that you place it before any- and everything else. What do I mean by this? Keep reading.

I'll use myself to make the point. Let's give me a name that let's everyone know I am homosexual. GayCock4U. That drives the point home, right? Okay, so even though it does, the responses I give on certain posts usually suggest that I am gay, and I have even networked to where I have built a small community of friends who know I am gay. So, my gayness is out there. Yay. Big whoop. Does this allow me to be an asshole on certain threads?

The Playground offers many, many threads a person may choose to visit, and one should never feel he or she cannot participate, for that is the purpose of the thread, is it not? Still, with threads such as "Do You Want to See the Person Above you Naked," or "Would you Like a Threesome with the Two People Above You," or even "Lick Me or Pass," just to name a few, do I really have to let my homosexuality get in the way every single time I choose to visit one of these threads? More simply put, if I visit one of these threads and a woman has posted before me, do I always give the "That would be an emphatic no" reply?

We're to have fun. If you're here to find a hook-up or talk about your sexuality, apparently it's happening through PMs because I am yet to see anything of that nature in a thread, so if you, the gay or lesbian Litster, are on the thread, why not just step outside of your little box and respond something like, "It could be interesting," or "It's worth consideration," … I'm not saying you have to answer positively or affirmatively to every single one, but let's be real about it: It sure as hell beats being a total douche and responding negatively to every single one. Oh, and on the flip side of this coin, don't get bent out of shape if a heterosexual person would like to hot tub with you. Trust me. You'll live.
