People you "know"? What on a personal level? I'm sorry but as a human being if someone, anyone says some **** like "i'm going to kill myself" or "life isn't worth it" i'm going to reach out and help whether i know them from a can of paint or not....a lot of the people who saves lives...don't know the person whom they saved, at least not initially.
Big ol kum-ba-ya for you then. If your opinion of me is affected by my personal choices then so be it. Again, it is what it is. An opinion online is vaporware.

There are a million drama queens out there crying about supposed heartache and different destructive tendencies every single day. 99% of the time I never open the threads and you know what? It's alright for me to skip them. There are some sincere people with actual issues too, but I'm not their knight in shining armor. That's OK too.
+1 Man. Some people always have something to say, when really it don't even matter.

A valid point on body language. If all you see is printed words then there is a lot of room for interpretation. I try to see the good meaning in posts until I know darn well it is not intended as good.

So use the damn smileys
While this is true...there are some issues that are put out there and its an obvious cry for help. It's not exactly easy to go out at lets say 1am and find someone to talk to face to face...normal people are sleep, forums are just waking up

And X...i don't judge people. never have never will, i accept them for who they are...whether they be an outstanding individual...or an *******....they are accepted just as that.

wouldn't determining if someone is an ******* or not be an assessment/judgement, call it what you will but that's judging someone. not judging someone would be sitting on the fence completely...that is, being totally indifferent to his advice or comments completely which is completely preposterous. If you get in a tizzy about them and fly off the handle about someone being an ******* then obviously you're making judgements. by accepting someone as an outstanding individual or an *******-y individual you're judging them...if you don't judge you just accept them as an individual and thats it. sorry...i'm a born devil's advocate. don't get up on a pedestal with the holier than thou "I don't judge anyone" but go and say someone's possible of being outstanding or a complete *******....if you didn't judge then you wouldn't know one from the other.

I judge people all the time and if you say you don't you're lying...we're humans and we're all guilty of it...if it's even really something to be guilty of...I just consider it normal. Altho some people suck at judgement...ie neo-*****, the overbearing religious , the i-know-what's-best-for-everybody left, etc.

That s dead right ...

I some time's get picked on (not in here as yet :-) for over use of smileys , but it is the only real way to feel the intent or emotion behind the text ... especially text coming from people you do not really know

[align=center]
So remember[8D] get off my back when I am being verbose with my smiley's
Warning :for the kids at home !!
Do not over use smiley's like in the above!!
They were used in this post by a professional joker !!


No animals were harmed in the creation of these smiley's

i"m a born devil"s advocate

Amen to that. In fact, I think god made me a devil's advocate on purpose. Hell, there are people on here that think I am a gay atheist. hahahahaha!
