Interesting!

Are you really such an anal retentive asshole that you took time out of your life to find a previous similar post and bitch about it here, as if his question was somehow a nuisance? Would being friendly in your response to this prospective student’s question really be that much more difficult, Jeffrey?
I’d say that it seems you are so insecure that the only place you find you can exercise any real control is through the emotionless void of the internet, so I guess your pretentious, controlling attitude isn’t exactly surprising.
Sorry, but someone had to say it eventually.

Does anyone find truth in this? I mean, overall. In this case, it certainly doesn’t apply – since the post I “found” was already categorized in the Memories so it only took me something like 10 seconds to find, and “bitching about it” was actually just me saying “yep, been asked.” But overall! And whoever posted the comment – you can elaborate too. All anonymous-like if you want.
BTW, I might be proving whatever this misguided soul is saying by simply posting this. Oh well. LiveJournal, etc. etc.

  1. That is interesting– I guess countless variables will always affect how people read any text entry. People familiar with you wouldn’t be offended by that response– but since everyone reads your text entries in the context of their own lives, there will always be a percentage of people who think, “How rude! *I* would’ve said this instead.”
    I wonder if that person got flamed on some other board earlier. Who knows what can make an otherwise normal person mad enough to be a troll.
