I started to respond to two threads tonight, and backed out. I was going to give my full opinion, but sometimes it's better to be quiet.

Anyone else have to learn to hush?

uh


yeah

i think ive demonstrated that

i even told a few friends so as to be accountable
and still did it tonight

im so sad w/ myself tonight

and its so ridiculous

i had an awesome day






congrats to YOU tho-lol

have a good eve-im gonna sleep

Karen, you're a lovely lady and you should speak your mind whenever you feel the need to.


Same for you MF

NOPE!!!

Sorry, but no, their just are opinions and/or what we beleive. look at it this way I think it's even a verse in a country song" image that" People can gate me if they want too, or love me if they can. makes no difference to me. I am who I am like it or don't, we all are not going to agree all everything; that is something we can't change.... but we can all agree to respect other people opinions That is something we can....

Thanks, I'm not very good with emoticons and have a tendency to torque-off others with my opinion.

First time I've been bashed for with-holding my opinion. I'll make sure I clue you in, before I write anything, next time.

Thanks for sharing!

I used to post on another site, but have stopped going on there because I got really fed up trying to justify my views to people who love to dwell on the negative. I have learnt now to play safe on forums because there are some people who are so bigotted and so set in their ways, that they simply cannot see the other person's point of view - but not just that - they riddicule and make the other poster seem small. It is simply not worth it. I don't want to get upset on forums as it is not my idea of fun.

it is not about learning how to hush
but it is about saying something in a respectful way
we cannot help how someone will perceive what we write
we cannot help how someone else will interpret what we write

we should not have to change our beliefs,ideas,opinions,nor our views
cause we are afraid of offending someone
we can say what we want,we can write what we want as long
as it is done in a respectful way
for this is called freedom of speech
in today times no matter what you say or write it will offend someone

Perfectly said my man...

I'll do that sometimes, type out a whole response, then think WTF, nobody's gonna be interested in that.

Then other times I just pour out whatever's on my mind to pretty much everything I read that interests me. Kinda like now.

Really makes me no never mind either way. Sometimes I think it's better to listen and keep my mouth shut, other times I like expressing myself. Anybody doesn't like it, who gives a ratsass?

Muppetkiller,I have had to restrain myself at times past on here.Could have really started a war.I like the advice that follows,if you don't like what you see,get out of thread.If it is subject asked for comments or answers then I type mine in popular or not.If I get someone baiting me for an argument,I leave.

I am always proud of my zip lipped dignified composure on here

<--- Truly proud always

I read all your posts I encounter and I'm always impressed with how sensible and well thought out they are. You'll never know who is reading your words and who is being influenced by them. It's obvious you have a lot of life experience and wisdom. I admire you very much.

Well said

haha yeah.. I have to bite my tongue quite often here..

Great post.. I agree

Maybe we need to look at how we respond to others before we bitch about how we are being treated. I know you took down a lot of people without reason including Jackson and Kansan then you want sympathy I don't think so. Read before you write is my advice too you muppet

OMG quite my ass all you do is go around picking the shit out of what people write and I have personally sent you an email about his. Get off it for god sake.

places like this are a safe haven where else can one one voice an opinion and be free of retribution? sure someone can post a response to your opinion, but that is the extent their actions can incur on you.

I still have yet to master the art of "Hush", here or in
my daily life.
Although I am getting better at "hushing" when in the company of a group of woman ( out numbered) whether they educated or not

i have no idea how my sharing my shame about my NOT being able to not post and saying bravo to you,
since you were being proud of yourself --could tick you off...???

apparently you misunderstood?

i was proud of you
and envious i had really not been able to hush



thanks tho
what i needed at that time was more finger pointing and humiliation

i said yaay for you and shame on me basically

what have i ever ever said to you to cause you to think i'd put you down?

nothing i can recall...

i am so sad that the women here are making it almost unbearable
speaking for myself anyway
but only me can make me leave so
im too stubborn
i dont care if everyone here hates on me

its a waste of space to come showing yourselves to the opposite sex and act ugly-in my opinion-but we are all free to use the site as we choose i spose

i think you blew the hush thing
and all behind simply misunderstanding me and assuming i was being a jerk
when i was clearly sharing my embarrassment regarding MY behavior..?

and believe me kidda-emoticons get misunderstood too

if you read this i hope its clear i was not meaning to be rude to you in any way- i never have been-why start now?
