..there is a point where you are TOO jaded, babe. Save it for the threads that invite debate. You've been bitching and moaning that your flirtations with Mistress have been rained on by poor sports.

Don't live in a glass house, baby.

MP

So, let's talk about this like two adults, outside the cuddly bounds of someone else's thread.

1) I do have this thing about child abuse and perhaps my ear is a little too sensitive on the subject but my heart is in the right place on this issue.

2) My bitching and moaning as you put is has consisted of one post on the subject following a shot across the bow by KM. Cut me a little slack here lady. I noticed your tongue squarely in your cheek when taking the Oreo cookie personality test. When you get a bone between your teeth, you seem to chew it for all its worth. Granted, a little flirtation with our resident paramour, is not the stuff of great debate. I'm new to the ways of flirtation on this board and indulged myself a bit yesterday. I recognize its a bit like eating cotton candy, you need to eat a lot of it and it doesn't have much nutritional value. But ohhh, the sugar rush.

3) I'm grieving the loss of my wonderful combatant Oliver Clozoff and find myself acting in outrageous ways. If only I had a meaty argument about tax policy or political philosophy, I wouldn't be forced to bumble around like a bull in a china closet for something to do.

4) And you've been off playing this Survivor game. I don't own a television and I don't enjoy such games, so I don't even have you around to entertain me with your quick wit and sharp tongue.

I'll take your comments in the spirit in which they've been given. We probably could create a nice BDSM thread out of this, me on my knees as you give me what I deserve...but its not my cup of tea.

Comments, observations?

Comments, observations?

Only one.

I've watched what you call "talking like adults" and I'm not impressed, nor do I wish to participate.

Apparently you're pretty comfy in your glass house. I'll send over a throw pillow or something.

Invest in some bandages and avoid schards.

I think UncleBill is still around- he'd play with you. Me? I have to go work on my tax forms!

I've watched what you call "talking like adults" and I'm not impressed, nor do I wish to participate.

So I'm cut off from MP's wit and wisdom.

I don't know what threads you've been viewing as you make your assessment of my contributions. That you choose not to participate is of course your decision. I observe many threads that don't hold my interest, some of which you've participated in. I guess its the old "you say tomayto and I say tomahto" thing. Of course, you're "I'm not impressed" comment has certain hard edge, a condescension. You do that well too MP. We probably wouldn't be friends in RL either, more's the pity. But don't presume to believe you know me at all from what is posted on this site.

And thanks for the throw pillow. I'll just sit back and watch the rocks come tumbling in.

Thanks for the suggestion, but my experience conversing with UncleBIll is a little like facing a napalm attack. Its scorched earth all the way. Oliver is so much more civilized. We can actually disagree with one another with smiles on our faces when we're finished.

Good luck with your taxes. If you're lucky, your man will make certain you get more back this year. Spend it well, the country is counting on you.

 

[Madame Pandora]

Oh here we fucking go again...

Is there some kind of point system for starting a thread with my name in it and then whining about how mean I am?

Look, if you don't want me to give you an honest response, here's a little tip - DON'T START A FUCKING THREAD WITH MY NAME IN THE TITLE ASKING A FUCKING QUESTION.

gb, I was polite to you. A little condescending, maybe, but that's just me. If you've read any of my stuff, you know that's how I am.

But here are some lovely parting gifts for you:

A. I never asked for your insight into the threads I post on OR if you've agreed/disagreed with me in them. In the times that we've posted in threads together and have agreed, I've said so. If you think this provides us with some divine kinship, buy a vowel.

B. The observance I've made of you is that you don't know when to back out of a discussion. Some people beat a dead horse -- You beat it, jump up and down on the carcass, set it on fire and dance naked around it. Life's too short to get into a debate with someone like you. That's just MY opinion. I'm sure there are others who feel the same about me. I don't post threads with their handles asking for their insight.

C. I never said I knew you. I just said I didn't want to play the little game your post was calling for.

If you've got anything else to say, email me. This dramatics crap is old. I've been here and done this.

9.85

Well..Madame Pandora...you did request for some intelligent conversation or perhaps a fight in a thread the other day...you just didn't specify who,looks like someone took your request seriousley.




{Expecting to be insulted for my comment}

 

[genderbender]

Not by me, no way would I insult a fine upstanding member of this board, such as yourself. But I'm willing to score MP's next fusillade. Let's see if she do better than 9.85. Sports fans are waiting with baited breath.

Of course, she probably wouldn't condescend to participate in this thread now that she's dismissed it with such aplomb.

 

[Madame Pandora]

Is there an echo in here?

Some people beat a dead horse -- You beat it, jump up and down on the carcass, set it on fire and dance naked around it.

Thank you for illustrating the point.

Get the fuck over it and walk on.

Thus, endth the lesson.

MP

 

[genderbender]

And who is it that's flogging the horse at the moment? You needn't return to the thread MP. We were just having fun playing by ourselves, crystalhunting and me. No harm, no foul. Just a couple of dudes hanging out. Never can tell where conversations between a couple of guys will lead. We might soon be talkin about fishin, or the forthcoming baseball season.

And about this "Thus, endth the lesson" thing, I don't know about others on the board, but I'm not quite prepared to deify you yet. Later perhaps, once you're gone. Very few people are deified during their lifetime.

Of course, they did erect a statue of Willie Mays in front of Pac Bell Park, and he's still alive. So maybe we could invite donations from board members for a bird feeder in your honor in front of Laurel's home in San Diego. Tweet, tweet, tweet.

See ya later, crystalhunting. I've got to adventure into the real world for a while. We can talk sports later.

No, no bird feeders please. lol

 

[Madame Pandora]

Awww...come on, Laurel?

How about a scone?

MP

 

[Laurel]

A scone? On my lawn? Why?

 

[Oliver Clozoff]

MP, I noticed you crossed the golden threshold of 1000 posts. Any idea for your title? If I may make a suggestion, I'd like to recommend "I don't have PMS. This is my normal personality.". It's not one of my most creative or clever offerings, but it might save you from having to repeatedly answer the same question.

Just teasin' ya. Take your finger off the caps lock!

And GB, I leave you alone for a little while and you start such a fuss! You might have noticed that not all lit members share my forbearance. C'est la vie.

Now everybody move along. You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here. *shooing everyone out of this thread*

"Delightfully Eloquent Intelligent Talker Y'know" [or "D.E.I.T.Y."] would have worked too.

Apologies ...

... for my previous post appearing twice. I have no idea why that happened; my connection is really slow today, and I keep getting timed out. I tried to delete one of the messages, without success. Just thought I'd share that with you, as I don't like when this happens.
