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 425 Views
I fully get that... it sounds extremely annoying. Helene - 08/08/2010 07:15:09 AM 478 Views
Being called a "Nazi" ßelals Girl - 07/08/2010 11:47:07 AM 411 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 173 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 269 Views
It sounds anti-semitic and crude. I'm not sure it qualifies for nazi. Helene - 08/08/2010 01:16:37 PM 479 Views
It used to be my signature! ßelals Girl - 09/08/2010 02:32:55 AM 398 Views
It's an offensive and potentially hurtful statement. Helene - 09/08/2010 08:43:22 AM 486 Views
Did you read her actual message body? *NM* ironclad - 09/08/2010 03:47:10 PM 271 Views
I'm just explaining the responses, not attributing these thoughts/feelings to Belals girl. *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 04:20:18 PM 265 Views
What responses? ßelals Girl - 11/08/2010 06:52:00 AM 494 Views
I'm confused. Nevermind. *NM* Helene - 11/08/2010 12:38:51 PM 251 Views
Which is why I've never said it in my life ßelals Girl - 09/08/2010 03:47:44 PM 473 Views
I understand . *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 04:19:40 PM 288 Views
Don't believe her. She's a LIAR NAZI. You can trust me. *NM* Ghavrel - 11/08/2010 07:22:08 AM 255 Views
Please don't make me send the Gestapo to your door at midnight. *NM* ßelals Girl - 11/08/2010 11:32:36 AM 268 Views

Anyone that argues from within the racial paradigm for issues that aren't racial. MightyYT - 07/08/2010 03:54:56 PM 449 Views
that one becomes annoying for most discriminations, really. LadyLorraine - 07/08/2010 04:00:53 PM 505 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 435 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 553 Views
I'll take a stab at those. TaskmasterJack - 07/08/2010 07:34:21 PM 410 Views
It's important to adjust your message format and phrasing to your audience Helene - 08/08/2010 07:24:29 AM 488 Views
Yes, and I don't mind constructive input at all. nossy - 09/08/2010 06:32:17 PM 378 Views
morass is awesome ironclad - 08/08/2010 01:08:21 PM 375 Views
Disagreeing with me. That really makes me not want to honestly consider their opinion. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 07/08/2010 07:35:58 PM 278 Views

Doesn't Sassy have the same view? *NM* MightyYT - 14/08/2010 05:14:46 AM 290 Views
Of course. It's always best not to let her have her own opinions. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 14/08/2010 11:10:53 AM 278 Views
I hate it when people... Napoleon62 - 08/08/2010 03:27:28 AM 609 Views
Yes, mislabeling people to discredit their position. It gets old. *NM* Helene - 08/08/2010 07:25:12 AM 255 Views
No, he's really, really not. *NM* Legolas - 08/08/2010 01:49:04 PM 249 Views
my favorite counter to "that's the way we've always done it..." damookster - 08/08/2010 04:14:15 AM 511 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 268 Views
I have it printed out and framed on my desk *NM* damookster - 09/08/2010 11:49:18 PM 269 Views
I have a lot but I particularly get pissed when I see fat kids. everynametaken - 08/08/2010 05:31:23 AM 538 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 515 Views
No. (beat.) - 08/08/2010 05:04:09 PM 383 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 465 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 281 Views
Why not?, if you're friends. *NM* (beat.) - 09/08/2010 12:37:05 AM 240 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 458 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 258 Views
I'm describing behavior, poor parenting, that only certain people display, namely crap parents. Helene - 11/08/2010 12:40:32 PM 425 Views
So you mean... Avendesora - 09/08/2010 03:18:43 PM 359 Views
Yes, those parents. *NM* Helene - 09/08/2010 05:24:31 PM 235 Views
I agree. The parents with actual screwed up kids know they are screwed up. everynametaken - 11/08/2010 12:43:01 AM 453 Views
Hillarious! scalius - 09/08/2010 06:04:21 PM 427 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 239 Views
Heh, agree. nossy - 09/08/2010 06:51:13 PM 355 Views
