How to make friends and influence people

"The threadssssssssss" - what on earth do you mean confused


No, just kidding - I know what you mean. You seem to have become rather traumatised by them.

We shall overcome Sailfree - we shall overcome. We shall throw off the shackles that bind us (or at least move the shackle to the next fastener to make the shackle a bit looser and not dig in so much).

We shall overcome the abundance of what occurs and make our abundances more abundant. Oh hec - three hours sleep has made me doolally. Basically the threadssssssss will live in harmony with the other threadsssssss and peace will prevail and this forum will be the wonderful place to welcome all those in this Great island of ours.

Ok, off out now, catch you all later.

RE: "BARTERING" ANYONE KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS??

Really good topic Sailfree, should be a good one to watch.

Your fashion jewellery would interest me.
I have 3 cats so no coat required
Alterations to clothes might be useful
A lift wouldn't as I am in London

I could look after one cat, maybe 2 at the most, if you are going on holiday for a week or two and as my house is flea free, they are wormed, but not vaccinated (as they never go out) your cat(s) would need to be wormed, deflead and up-to-date vaccinations and I would only charge for Hills dry food and Tesco value cat litter - so we are talking about a charge of £5 per week per cat.

I could do your ironing. I have a steam generator iron which is an amazing invention and cuts down ironing time and also irons materials that would not be allowed to be ironed with a conventional iron.

I could do typing (I am a trained medical typist) but any typing would be ok. Dictated over the phone to me and I could type as you are talking to me, or even do shorthand, and then I email the MSWord document back to you for printing out.

I can teach shorthand (Teeline method) but I doubt anyone wants that skill.

Hmmm, I may think of others but need to get ready soon to go out for some hours.

RE: Last person to view you

Hope you have messaging filters in place. Mind you maybe you would be curious to know what he says.

Haha, I am beginning to like you!!! (I am not into females either, so not in THAT way, haha). Yes, I never thought that coversation on here could be challenging but I suppose it is, although requires less concentration than say reading a book or watching a programme.

RE: Last person to view you

sorry about typos - I should know better typing for a living but am careless when not working!

RE: Last person to view you

A 24 year old from Bradford, so I suppose he is looking at the UK forums because I am never viewed by anyone as young as him in the UK.

Mostly I get viewed buy really good looking guys in their 40s or 50s from the USA thinking we could make a longlasting relationship. As if. What do they think - I will meet them in Pizza Express this weekend or something. I usually reply that if I were looking for a relationship (which I am not) it would not be with someone from more than 20 miles from my home. What is it with these scammers. Are people falling for someone thousands of miles away when there are people on their doorstep or very close.

Older, not old rolling on the floor laughing

My profile says my age, my body says my age, my face says my age when I have no make up on anyway, but my brain still thinks I am in my 30s, which I suppose is the most important thing anyway. I am not learned or clever, but to me once my brain goes that will worry me! Aches and pains of joints can be eased but loosing it up top scares me silly. Perhaps I need the word games to keep my brain active.....

RE: Whinge time!! Word Games Taking Over All Forums!!

I meant I was numb from the pack attack on me yesterday and was worn-out. This is my home from now on and thanks for the warm welcome. Having had 3 hours sleep and off out soonish I will contribute more, believe me, and also start more. Have a wonderful weekend everyone and here's to my new friends on here cheers

How to make friends and influence people

Thanks! I was also a bit put off thinking that there were too many word games which are fine for others but not my cup of tea, so I would love to contribute more and will do.

As I have got older I feel more comfortable and don't worry about impressions I make and am more confident with myself but that is I suppose natural.

I hope we get some more responses, which will be good.

RE: Thank you Mr president Obama

Well it suits their own beliefs. Like everything really. For instance for us in the UK who are hit but the cuts of our year-old coalition government those people think our government is doing a bad job. For those of us not affected by the cuts we think our government is doing a good job. It depends on one's personal viewpoints and/or gripes and how that government, even if in another continent, holds with their own views.

RE: Anger and the way people express it

Sorry about the double post.

RE: Anger and the way people express it

I am a very calm person, not easily angered, but when I do get angry (and I would only class that as being probably less than 5 occasions that spring to mind), I amaze even myself with my fury. Once I was so angry with my ex when I was married to him about something I had been putting up with for years with talking to him rationally about it for years, I just blew and we were in the kitchen - I open the cupboard and threw every plate one by one on the floor. It was so unlike me and I had never behaved like that before or since. Things were better with that problem between us after that incident as it made him realise just how strongly I felt.

It's good you have some good friends and are like sisters - although if it were anything like my sister and I that would not be friendly! I think it is too easy to lose contact with people and some good friends I made when my kids were younger, parents of their friends, I have lost contact with but made others. A Facebook search was good in looking up those people and catching up online on our lives.

It was nice when my kids' friends came round to play, or vice versa, and us mums would natter, but when the kids go to secondary school and there is no school gates to gather round it is easy to gradually lose contact. It's a shame when friends go different ways and perhaps move or work longer hours etc.

I don't try, and people take me as they find me. It is easier to be more open on the net with anonimity and although obviously being respectful and going with the CS forum rules it doesn't matter too much what people think of us on here as much as real life.

I know what you mean about people saying how full their lives are. I don't know where they fit in the time to do all that what with the commute to work and weekends shopping etc., but I suppose their time is differently managed to what we imagine it to be.

RE: BREAKING NEWS: Israel's Attack on Humanitarian Ship to Gaza.

Haha, just when I thought people had realised it was a lie, you post this.

The article was blatantly a lie, the conversation fabricated on the article and there was no attack. The news agencies made such little of the story it was almost a non-story.

Right, hopefully this lie of a thread can finish and be put in the archives. Wonder who will get the last post in.

How to make friends and influence people

Hi, hope I get some response so we can have a nice light hearted or heavy hearted discussion.

It it important for you to make friends, are you happy with your circle of friends. How much importance do you place on being a good impression on someone, is it important for you to be liked or are you simply true to yourself and it doesn't matter whether people like you or not .... etc

You get the gist so comments please.

RE: Whinge time!! Word Games Taking Over All Forums!!

Haha, how to make friends and influence people.

Hey, that's a good topic. I will start that.

RE: Whinge time!! Word Games Taking Over All Forums!!

Ok, now I have to think of a topic and don't worry - it won't be religious or current affairs based and I have had it up to here withh those threads today.

I will start a new topic when I think of something, but don't hold your breath as it may take a while, as I am pretty worn-out and brain numb!

RE: Whinge time!! Word Games Taking Over All Forums!!

I started one or two threads on here but they didn't get a response. One was about Derren Browns programme and there was another, can't remember what. I assumed people were keen on word games since there are so many, and whilst I certainly don't believe that some subjects could be started on here it would be great for me to contribute elsewhere because the threads I am on at the moment are doing my head in.

RE: BREAKING NEWS: Israel's Attack on Humanitarian Ship to Gaza.

OMG - you are amazingly honest. Don't take it badly - I am just sick and tired of lies and seem to spend a lot of time on here and other anti-Israel forums websites posting the truth, and it is very very rare that someone is big enough to post what you just did.

Thank you very much, and my faith in mankind was wearing thin and you just restored it by your honesty. Have a brilliant weekend,

Again many thanks for that comment, and of course there is no need to apologise.

RE: How Will You Spend 'Doomsday' May 21 2011 Thats tomorrow!

And if that is too scary for some they can always play the old OXO tv ads.

Good find - I never heard of that movie before.

RE: How Will You Spend 'Doomsday' May 21 2011 Thats tomorrow!

rolling on the floor laughing

There must be a Monty Python sketch for that, but search through Monty Python sketches is hell itself.

RE: How Will You Spend 'Doomsday' May 21 2011 Thats tomorrow!

No, the survivors will still argue unfortunately!

RE: How Will You Spend 'Doomsday' May 21 2011 Thats tomorrow!

How long between judgement and sentencing?

RE: How Will You Spend 'Doomsday' May 21 2011 Thats tomorrow!

And the scammers on CS are making a last-ditch effort to get as much money as they can to spend it as quickly as they can. Let's face it - the scammers are doomed at least. rolling on the floor laughing

RE: BREAKING NEWS: Israel's Attack on Humanitarian Ship to Gaza.

No, I want to finish my typing tonight so I can go out tomorrow. I usually work Fri evenings and Saturday mornings but have a river Thames boat trip planned!

RE: BREAKING NEWS: Israel's Attack on Humanitarian Ship to Gaza.

Ahhh a lounge topic. I am working so only am contributing to threads that need my urgent attention rolling on the floor laughing

RE: BREAKING NEWS: Israel's Attack on Humanitarian Ship to Gaza.

Well I can't find it in Current Affairs, and it is not in the Religion Section, so I will look in the Jokes section then.
