everybody on this thread:
topic: The fine line between private chat rooms
and public forums: A little sensitivity in order?
Hey why don't you guys set up a topic
for thread geniuses or thread comedians.
Ever since I discovered this thread I live
in fear that some of my posts will someday
be linked to from here. We all stay stupid
things and make mistakes, any one of us could
end up here.
Can you imagine how bad somebody feels, when after
posting something stupid--and it becomes a permanent
fixture on the web, they find they are forever branded
a moron for all to see--how humiliating.
Now some of your links are very funny, but
maybe the most mean-spirited examples could be
re-thought before they are posted.
It is a lot of fun to come across a post which
is clever, written well, and gives some good
stock information. There are a lot of great
comedians on SI too. Anyway, not to take all
the wind out of your sails, but somebody on
the thread made a crack about some member's
profile--the biceps thing, that was below the
belt. Altho I am a lardbutt trader like many
of the rest of you now, I used to work out and
lift weights, and I don't remember being any dumber
back then than I am now...
Now don't go out looking for my worst post,
I admit I'm an idiot, here is proof: I was
just trying to double check the spelling of
genius, and it took two minutes to realize
I was using my wife's french dictionary.
