TK confessions?

Not flames necessarily. Sometimes I like to try and guess what people will say in the GM thread. We are a predictable lot (myself very much included). Anyone else have confessions? (TK RELATED ONLY!!!)

Re: TK confessions?

  • On ordinary days (not today) I don't even bother with the GM thread.  I love all you guys, but mostly, I don't care about update after update on humdrum mornings.  And I usually log on after its been going on for three or four pages, so if I do post something, I don't read it.  It's boring.

    Again, love you guys :) But morning threads are 'meh' to me.

  • I post in the GM threads because it gives me something to do. Otherwise, I lurk on TN since I have to waste time lowering my production numbers at work.

    I open almost every thread on SB. Again, it gives me something to do. But not on E because holy crap, that's a lot of threads and I don't really give a damn about wedding-related stuff.
  • I lurk WAY more than I post.  I keep trying to break that habit, but in most posts what I'd say has already been said, or I'm way late to the game.

    I feel like a creeper.

  • I feel that way about "omg read this article, stamp your feet in indignation" threads.
  • I think the morning threads are boring and I do get sick of the "I'm sick today" and then 6 people who have to say "I'm sorry you're sick."

    But they give me something to do too, and I DO like hearing about other peoples lives.

    I lurk more than I post, as well. It's hard to jump in to conversations when people don't know you.

    [QUOTE]In Response to Re: TK confessions? : I rarely read any threads that contain a link. Even if they are somewhat interesting. I have a girl crush on AATB.
    Posted by rachers1017[/QUOTE]

    Me either. Or video links. I usually base my opinion on the CNs, not caring if there is need-to-know info in the link.

    I hold back on a lot of my true opinions and word responses differently on here because of how people might react. TK has too long a memory.
  • I confess that I am really jealous of the GTGs lately because I would love to go to one.  That's what I get for living in the middle of nowhere.
  • I get a little bitter when good threads happen while I am at work.  I want to read them and post but I can't. I hate that.
  • Nebb, I'm intrigued about what you look like (along with others who don't have pictures in their sig), but lately, I just really want to know what you look like.

    I can tell you this much, she has dark curly hair and is short!

  • I confess that I have never posted... I just lurk around, and have gotten some FABULOUS ideas for my wedding from you ladies!

  • I also feel like I lurk more than I post. I don't generally say what I think about a lot because I disagree with a some people regularly and don't have the time to stay and debate. I P&R a lot. I also get a vibe that there are a few people that don't like me at all so I avoid getting into debates with them.

  • I lurk mostly as well, mostly due to that when I get out of work, it seems no one is around. And on my days off, I'm often too busy to really stop in and chat.

    There are a lot of new posters around here. Some of them I really like (Rach, I'm looking at you), and some others who really, really confuse me.

    I really like ML a lot and kind of want to join in over there.

    I was going to ask about that but didn't think it was my business. I remembered you from a long time ago and then all of a sudden you were here again. Not a bad thing. Just something I noticed.

  • I just feel like I'm not good at the chit-chat part of some threads, and so I don't contribute. I don't feel like I have anything valuable to add, and I'm not all that interesting, so I kind of just follow along and chime in if there's something that I either know about or want to know more about.

    Haha, so do I. And, I get confused when people change sigs because I have to learn them all over again. Mostly for newer people I don't "know" well.

    I get super pissed when people tell me my friendships here aren't real, or don't matter as much as an IRL friendship. I'm a pretty laid-back person, but that instantly gets my blood boiling. It won't be pretty the next time my mom makes that comment.

  • YIO - I was meaning to ask, what is your dog's name again? I was trying to remember it on a pets thread and totally blanked even though I know I know it. I keep thinking Thor but I know that's not right.
  • Unless I am VERY interested, I usually never click links in posts.  I base everything off of the CN in most cases.  

    If your post is more than 2 maybe 3 paragraphs, I wont read it or stop reading half way through.  If you have NO paragraphs and it's 50 lines long, I wont read it at all.

    I get annoyed when people with 2 posts stick up for vendors on GIS, I feel like I have to explain myself of why it's obnoxious etc... but I really don't have to do this.

    CREEPER!!!

    Hello!
    panther
  • Aw, thanks, Cardmonsta. :)
  • I have a hard time keeping FB and TK separate. I forget where I read things and I fear I will say something on TK that only happened on FB and it will piss off a friend. I try to be extra vigilant though. 

    Also, I see people from TK (who are not my FB friends) commenting on my FB friend's stuff and it totally taints my views of them.

    <div>I really like the posters here.  I like E too, but it moves a little fast for me to keep up with and I feel like my posts just get lost in the shuffle. Or maybe  I just don't have anything interesting enough to say that gets noticed. But I feel like I can keep up better over here, either way. </div>
