I'm usually incapable of a short message. This seems to kill all possibility that someone will both read and respond to the thread. Hmmm... do you all dislike me, the way I write, or long posts?

All of the above?
 
This seems to be a short message.

It was too early for me to think about and respond to your last thread. Not quite awake yet lol.
 
Yes, yes, yes

I suspect that this thread was started as the result of a lack of response to your 'Lies we live by' thread that has sunk to page two (currently), and with no replies posted.

You want the 'meaning of life' and encase your question in convoluted paragraphs that make for difficult reading. I don't have the patience to go past the first couple of paras.

Try simplifying your writing instead of writing a scholarly work that few can or will follow.

This is written in good fellowship and without the intention to offend. You did ask.
 
I have to admit, I opened it, glanced at it, and decided it was too long and too much work to read late at night, so I closed it and moved on. Sorry.

If there was a question in there that you were hoping to get answers to, I never got that far in reading the thread.
 
You answered your own questions, leaving very little for anyone to say.

Also, the thread title was very negative. I think there is a different truth from every point of view. To categorize differing truths as lies is not kind, and very off-putting.
 
Too long for my lazy ass also, sorry...................
 
Length isn't an issue as long as it's interesting. I admit that I passed it by, the title wasn't very interesting. I read lengthy things and respond if I have anything to say. Lately I've been keeping whatever I say pertinent (I'm so proud of me for that!). Heck, I even read Felix's posts in their entirety on the odd occassion he posts them.

You write well RS.

Answered in reverse order ( cause I'm feeling perverse tonight ),,,

Not all of the above.

Long posts are hard to follow for me,,, I loose my train of thought ( as well as yours ) ya see.

The way you write is fine.

Don't dislike ya at all,,, kind've neutral I suppose.
 
Thanks for the answers.

To those who misunderstood: I don't think there have to be question marks in order for a conversation to start.

Indy: I'll try to confine myself to bitching about others and being rude when asked an honest question.
 
Indy,

I'm sorry to have gotten so touchy. I KNOW that it was rambling. I've been having an early onset of the holiday blues, and everyone I know is having kids all of a sudden, and it's weirding me out. So, I guess that I took the comment more personally than was warranted--I wasn't trying to be "clever." I really AM struggling right now, I guess that I just don't know how to express it.
