I'm thinking of laying down a couple of ground rules here at BBD.
#1) No forgeries. It's pretty easy to tell if someone is posting as themselves or as someone else. From now on, all forgeries will be deleted.
#2) If you're going to insult someone, please do not repeat the same exact insult over and over again. It is the most tedious thing imaginable for everyone involved. Nobody likes a broken record.
Everyone knows that I see insults as somewhat of an art. I enjoy having insult wars. However, I enjoy them because you can be creative. Please people, try to reach beyond the narrow boundaries of your imagination. Otherwise, leave the insults to people who have a sense of humor. If you are insulting someone because you genuinely hate them and you are angry, this isn't the place. At some point, when there is nothing new to say, you either move on from the discussion or remain like a hamster stuck on a noisy hamster wheel. The latter is comparable to some sort of bardo or hell realm as far as I'm concerned. Have mercy on your fellow readers, not to mention me, your gracious host.
This site is not a forum for playground antics. I post here so that people can comment, share their thoughts or debate on specific subject matter. The caliber of communication is degraded by those who are unable to conduct themselves in a civilized fashion or at least make up for their inability to debate with a clever wit or razor's edge. I am sick and tired of seeing the same stupid, banal back and forth. I am going to start deleting these repetative and pointless comment wars. They are boring, irritating and childish. If you can't think of a new insult and one that doesn't involve homophobia, beastiality and pedophilia (with possible exceptions depending on the context of the thread), then don't say anything at all.
I may add to this if it becomes necessary, but for the most part, I hate the very word "Rules" and try my hardest to keep the damn things to a minimum.
Thank you all.
Maria Luz De Luna
Posted by Maria at July 29, 2004 12:28 PMI am tired of the back and fourth shit too. Geoffrey is not worth my time anymore he has proven countless times now how utterly immature and repetative he is. Go to his site to see how tired it has become. The forging and changing of posts, the obesessiveness with homosexuality, incest, etc.
I am done with these stupid games anymore.
I think that's a great resolution Nunya and you should stick to it. I've found that if you REALLY don't like someone and it reaches this level, it's best to ignore eachother and move on. It takes way too much energy to get mad and engage in not-funny back and forth. At least if it's going to be a war, let's all have a laugh. I learned THAT when I started visiting Dog Snot a long time ago. At this point, it takes a lot to make me angry. Not so much to irritate the shit out of me. (That's pretty easy). It's the repetative nature of the comments that is making me crazy. Thanks again.
Posted by: Maria at July 29, 2004 12:38 PMWhoa Nelly..looks like you've had your hands full my dear!
Still awaiting furniture and household goods...so still relying on the base library for computer access....oh I hate coming on base for this but I swear sometimes I start "Jonsin" for the Box..haha.
Hope to be able to check in with you more regularly soon enough. :)
SANDY! I miss you. XOXO

You're the master of it Nunya. Did it. Did not. Did it. Did not.
"Geoffrey is not worth my time anymore he has proven countless times now how utterly immature and repetative he is."
Speaking of repetitive, how many times have you said this? Hell, how many times have you missplelled it?
"Go to his site to see how tired it has become."
And it always starts with you posting something insulting like right now.
"the obesessiveness with homosexuality"
Hypocrite. Just the other day, in complete disregard of Maria's previously singular policy that even I, of all bloggers, didn't break - you posted as me yabbering about how I wanted to ravage another man's anus. Pot meet kettle.
"I am done with these stupid games anymore."
Poor compostion once again. I think he's trying to say he's done but only after he throws another barb out as bait.
Can you add one more rule? That Nunya has to use spellcheck before he posts?
Posted by: Gordon the Magnificent at July 29, 2004 08:08 PMYou're in Germany right Sandy?
Posted by: Gorodn the Magnificent at July 29, 2004 08:08 PMWhat? Another forgery? There's no way in the world I would have misspelled misspelled. Damn you Maria!
I'm so tired of this... so tired.
Posted by: Gordon the Magnificent at July 29, 2004 08:12 PMI'd like to recommend another rule. No more discussions or pictures of dogs and their respective funky asses being stuck together in heat.
That rates as the most fucking disgusting thing I've heard in a long while.
Posted by: Gordon the Magnificent at July 29, 2004 08:28 PMYeah, I guess I wrote that too, eh NeCUNT?
You're ruining my credibility Nunya.
Posted by: Gordon the All Knowing and Self-Actualized at July 29, 2004 08:42 PM"Gordon" I think Maria knows damn well I didn't write anything since yesterday at 12:34. SO give it up already.
Posted by: nunya at July 30, 2004 07:47 AMGordon, you're pissing me off.
Posted by: Maria at July 30, 2004 10:03 AMNeoCUNT,
It's a joke, take it easy tiger. I'm just having fun pulling the same stunt you pull on our blog all the time. That is, posting as myself, then claiming it's not me.
Maria,
What's new? Love you when you're mad!
Sorry if the picture offended you Gordon. It was meant to be humorous, since you can't really see what is going on.
Posted by: Darcie at July 30, 2004 01:50 PMme? I'm always nice
Posted by: cul at July 30, 2004 04:11 PMGreat idea Maria. Let's see who's first to fall by the wayside.
Woops. Too late. Already happened. I simply adore checking in every week or so... it's SOOOO restful :-)
