Have you ever posted stuff you thought was REALLY cool

[LaurenG]

and no one makes a comment, (obviously no one else thinks it's cool at all, lol)It Happens to me frequently.:P :popcorn:

[Crazy Dave]

1. I posted a very old joke one time

Not that I thought it was funny but it was one that my dad used to tell frequently and it always reminded me of him. Even said so in the post. Well our typical uppity-ups and "it's not funny or cool unless I posted it" bunch really jumped in my shit that day with about a dozen "that's not funny" posts.

Duh....I never said or claimed it to be but you know how the lounge's strict rules and high, serious standards go.

[LaurenG]

2. You know

Somedays things just do not work out well. I actually think it's funny when it happens especially when you aren't in an unpleasant mindset and people take what you say all wrong.
:7

[Midlodemocrat]

7. What was the joke? I don't remember that.

[Crazy Dave]

43. My dad used to love this joke

It was an old joke about a guy going to court to change his name, "Jack Shit". The judge tells him no problem at all and asks him what he would like to change his name to, his reply, "Joe Shit".

[Midlodemocrat]

46. LOL. That is funny.

:thumbsup:

[Crazy Dave]

48. Thanks

:hi:

DTW and Dad

[taterguy]

3. Yes

[raccoon]

4. Yes. nt

[crim son]

5. Nope.

Everything I post is greeted with tremendous enthusiasm and praise. :eyes:

[LaurenG]

9. Well it should be that's for sure

:D

[SPKrazy]

23. I Believe That

eyes rolling doesn't fool me!

well maybe you are just like everyone else who posts something that no one responds to.

I do, quite often

for example:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=385&topic_id=7832&mesg_id=7832

no responders as of yet

[BarenakedLady]

31. .....

:applause:

[crim son]

47. Bwahahahaha!!

I can always count on you!

[NewWaveChick1981]

6. Yes.

:(

[LaurenG]

8. I'm sorry but I don't believe you

you ALWAYS have fun things to say!:bounce: :hug:

[NewWaveChick1981]

10. Awww... thanks....

:hug: :hi: But it's true. Not one response to my post about lyrics to a cool song by the Cure a few days ago...and there have been others. :P

Granted, I usually get at least ONE reply, but there are times I don't. :(

[LaurenG]

12. Really the Cure and NO responses

If JimmyJazz had still been here you two would have had a good discussion going. If I remember correctly she LOVES the cure.:D

[ForrestGump]

56. The Cure Is

Worse Than The Disease... :P









Sorry about that. I'm seeking therapy for it...

[johnnie]

11. Yeah, quite a few times

At first I got bummed out, then I started to realize it was just because I am too far advanced from everyone else and they just didn't get it. :rofl:



Ok, seriously, yeah... I have posted things I thought would get a reply or two and watched them go down faster than a bottle of scotch in the oval office, but I have also posted things that were completely ridiculous and embarrassingly watched them stay around for a few days.

[LaurenG]

13. Heh, lol

Yes I believe that my posts about sun spots are mighty important. I don't get my feelings hurt either I just know it happens to most of us at least occasionally and I thought I'd talk about it.;) :hi:

[mainegreen]

14. *all* *the* *time*

[LaurenG]

16. So we just have to realize

there are days when no one cares one bit what we say? (I'm used to it, I've raised teenagers;) )

[Phillycat]

15. Oh yes.

I've posted links to graphics sites that I thought were awesome, and...nothing. :shrug:

[LaurenG]

18. I think some people fail to recognize great links when they see them

x( Geez we're screwn! :rofl:

[Lochloosa]

17. Just this....

Three Brazilian Soldiers

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

[LaurenG]

19. I swear you are very creative

and you "got me"!

[yellowdogintexas]

20. sure. and stuff just for fun and started a chain that went on a while

I think it has to do with

1. the general mood of the day
2. who happens to be on line at the time
3. the speed at which the posts are accumulating..a post can drop like a stone
if the traffic is high just because it gets pushed out of the 1st 2 or 3 pages.
4. sometimes it just doesn't get across the way you are thinking it too.

[LaurenG]

21. True, especially #4

I tend to think everything has a humorous side to it and I think it comes accross as sarcasm or just plain stupidity on my end, lol.

[izzybeans]

22. yeah me too. No one seems to get just how cool I really am. I blame them.

:P

[LaurenG]

26. At least you know who's to blame.

:P

[ironflange]

24. Yeah, constantly

It's funny though. You post something that you think people will go nuts over, and nothing happens. OTOH, you just feel like posting some stupid throwaway remark and the thread goes on and on.

[LaurenG]

25. That tells us a bit about the mindset in the lounge

I just can't seem to match up often enough. I think its my own corniness though.:D

[BlueIris]

27. Yep. I am one of the Lounge pariahs, after all.

Even though I stopped posting overtly mean things a long time ago, well, Loungers have long memories. Sigh. My posts are mostly...not loved here.

:nopity:

[LaurenG]

29. You are not a lounge pariah

And I must have missed your overtly mean posts. :hug: :yourock:


edit: I'm having a hard time spelling lounge correctly today.

[BlueIris]

Oh, thanks, OB.

I...don't want to be a pariah. That would suck. I like it here.

[southlandshari]

30. Mean things?

I don't remember you ever posting any mean things!

;)


:hug:

[BlueIris]

40. Yeah, well I did leave the *really* mean stuff for the alert forms.

Oh, wait, you probably knew that. :-)

[southlandshari]

45. OMG!

I've been laughing all morning, and yet THAT is the funniest thing I've read so far!

:rofl:


Hope you are well, my friend!

:hug:

[Tyler Durden]

28. I try to make a point of posting on someone's thread like that.

Call it the empathetic part of my Social Embarrassment Phobia if you will.

[LaurenG]

36. Thank you Tyler, I'll be looking for you next time I post.

;-)

[southlandshari]

32. I like everything you post!

No matter where you post it!

[LaurenG]

33. Woo Hoo

[BarenakedLady]

34. No

I never post anything cool. It's either to whine or to bitch or both.

[LaurenG]

35. Well I never post anything cool either, I just think

it is and then I realize no one else does, lol!

You're alright, it will be OK try to go easy on yourself, no one (few) people know what you're talking about anyway. It will be ok hang in there and be nice to you.:hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

59. I did, at the time...

I guess it was only funny to me and WannaB. :hi:
