I'll take a stab at those. TaskmasterJack Send a noteboard - 07/08/2010 07:34:21 PM
Being criticized (during marketing prep or similar) for using words my colleagues apparently never bothered to learn pisses me off. Ok, yeah, because it's my fault your lexicon doesn't include "aficionado" or "morass." Or "lexicon," most likely. Fuckers.


1) aficionado - Spanish for "this lake has not been stocked well"

2) morass - what it would take for your presentation to be worth paying attention to

3) lexicon - a gathering of fanboys in Lexington devoted to discussing comics and selling Star Trek memorabilia

One that pisses me off... Phelix - 07/08/2010 07:59:16 AM 396 Views
I fully get that... it sounds extremely annoying. Helene - 08/08/2010 07:15:09 AM 449 Views
Being called a "Nazi" ßelals Girl - 07/08/2010 11:47:07 AM 376 Views
Now I'm curious, what kinds of statements gets people to call you a nazi? *NM* Helene - 08/08/2010 07:16:22 AM 158 Views
You know... "I like the smell of Jews burning in the morning. It smells like... genocide." *NM* Ghavrel - 08/08/2010 10:18:35 AM 254 Views
It sounds anti-semitic and crude. I'm not sure it qualifies for nazi. Helene - 08/08/2010 01:16:37 PM 446 Views
It used to be my signature! ßelals Girl - 09/08/2010 02:32:55 AM 364 Views
It's an offensive and potentially hurtful statement. Helene - 09/08/2010 08:43:22 AM 454 Views
Did you read her actual message body? *NM* ironclad - 09/08/2010 03:47:10 PM 254 Views
I'm just explaining the responses, not attributing these thoughts/feelings to Belals girl. *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 04:20:18 PM 248 Views
What responses? ßelals Girl - 11/08/2010 06:52:00 AM 464 Views
I'm confused. Nevermind. *NM* Helene - 11/08/2010 12:38:51 PM 235 Views
Which is why I've never said it in my life ßelals Girl - 09/08/2010 03:47:44 PM 437 Views
I understand . *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 04:19:40 PM 272 Views

Please don't make me send the Gestapo to your door at midnight. *NM* ßelals Girl - 11/08/2010 11:32:36 AM 254 Views

Anyone that argues from within the racial paradigm for issues that aren't racial. MightyYT - 07/08/2010 03:54:56 PM 415 Views
that one becomes annoying for most discriminations, really. LadyLorraine - 07/08/2010 04:00:53 PM 469 Views
Oh yes, I remember the OJ trial. Of course it was because he was black, not because he'd killed her. Helene - 08/08/2010 07:18:36 AM 406 Views
Not sure this fits the post, but as I'm currently angry about it, I'm sharing. nossy - 07/08/2010 07:06:18 PM 519 Views
I'll take a stab at those. TaskmasterJack - 07/08/2010 07:34:21 PM 375 Views
It's important to adjust your message format and phrasing to your audience Helene - 08/08/2010 07:24:29 AM 455 Views
Yes, and I don't mind constructive input at all. nossy - 09/08/2010 06:32:17 PM 334 Views
morass is awesome ironclad - 08/08/2010 01:08:21 PM 342 Views
Disagreeing with me. That really makes me not want to honestly consider their opinion. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 07/08/2010 07:35:58 PM 259 Views

Doesn't Sassy have the same view? *NM* MightyYT - 14/08/2010 05:14:46 AM 273 Views
Of course. It's always best not to let her have her own opinions. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 14/08/2010 11:10:53 AM 263 Views
I hate it when people... Napoleon62 - 08/08/2010 03:27:28 AM 569 Views
Yes, mislabeling people to discredit their position. It gets old. *NM* Helene - 08/08/2010 07:25:12 AM 237 Views
No, he's really, really not. *NM* Legolas - 08/08/2010 01:49:04 PM 235 Views
my favorite counter to "that's the way we've always done it..." damookster - 08/08/2010 04:14:15 AM 477 Views
I like that story. Have you ever managed to get that entire story out without being interrupted? *NM* Helene - 08/08/2010 07:26:15 AM 253 Views
I have it printed out and framed on my desk *NM* damookster - 09/08/2010 11:49:18 PM 252 Views
I have a lot but I particularly get pissed when I see fat kids. everynametaken - 08/08/2010 05:31:23 AM 500 Views
Yes, I know what you mean. It's like parents who say: Look at how my child talks to me! Helene - 08/08/2010 07:13:41 AM 480 Views
No. (beat.) - 08/08/2010 05:04:09 PM 350 Views
of course but i'm sure that group of families isn't what Helene is referring to LadyLorraine - 08/08/2010 05:16:04 PM 428 Views
Parents who have very difficult children won't appeal to me about their children's behavior. *NM* Helene - 08/08/2010 05:21:44 PM 264 Views
Why not?, if you're friends. *NM* (beat.) - 09/08/2010 12:37:05 AM 226 Views
Because people who do their best know why their kids are behaving the way they are behaving Helene - 09/08/2010 08:48:12 AM 419 Views
I don't know; it really wasn't clear to me from what you said. *NM* (beat.) - 11/08/2010 09:09:28 AM 242 Views
I'm describing behavior, poor parenting, that only certain people display, namely crap parents. Helene - 11/08/2010 12:40:32 PM 389 Views
So you mean... Avendesora - 09/08/2010 03:18:43 PM 321 Views
Yes, those parents. *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 05:24:31 PM 222 Views
I agree. The parents with actual screwed up kids know they are screwed up. everynametaken - 11/08/2010 12:43:01 AM 410 Views
Hillarious! scalius - 09/08/2010 06:04:21 PM 386 Views

my boyfriend hates when I use this one against him lyringlas - 09/08/2010 04:30:50 PM 474 Views
it's such an inane statement that it really can only be met with physical violence. *NM* LadyLorraine - 09/08/2010 06:18:04 PM 224 Views
Heh, agree. nossy - 09/08/2010 06:51:13 PM 320 Views
