Why do I do it to myself?

This is a spin-off of the accidentally deleted thread "Imposters piss me off." ^_^

Every so often, I go over to OH, even though I hate it, just to see if anything useful has been posted. Afterwards, I mentally slap myself. Every. Single. Time. It's a damn good thing that I had my account there deleted. If I hadn't, I probably would have been banned by now. Either I read a post by SandyR (I try to avoid them, but some sneak through when I'm not expecting it) that makes me want to slap her and shake the people that actually listen to her or I run across a thread containing an online WWIII over some stupid thing. (Today it was one where someone had the audacity [gasp!] to say that they didn't feel a lot of sympathy for people who buy something they really can't afford, default on their loans, and subsequently have their possessions repo'd - apparently that didn't go over well.) :speechles

Every time I go over there, I wonder why I did. But I guess I continue to think that there might be some redeeming feature to the forum (every so often, a decent bit of advice gets posted). :phanvan

Wow, it is a mess in here! Bits of popcorn everywhere! An empty MOM bottle ! Oooops, what is this, A POM POM! Damn, how did this get in here? Anyone know?

POM POM! HA!!! I was LOL in real time over that one. When you watch who is reading but not posting that makes the comment even funnier.

Again, and for the last time (I'm done with this conversation), my suggestion came BEFORE she came to the board asking for help.

I'm sure it was. :guess

Look, it isn't that I really dislike you. I just don't trust you. One minute, you're making nasty posts and stirring up trouble on OH about Wendell, and the next you're PMing and emailing people to try to get a look at his blog. I don't trust people who try to play both sides of the field and hope people don't notice. We do.

Now, THAT'S funny! Thanks for the chuckle...

Now, what was it you said in it? Oh, that's right, "I would be interested in seeing your blog about the nurse scandal. I don't want to reveal my reasons at this time." Isn't that right, Njbowman? Oh, wait, I mean Nancy.

Oh, that's so scary! I didn't realize how mean I sounded until I saw it in print! LOL! You got me!

Wendell said that if anyone wanted to see his blog, he would send it to them...did he not??? Wasn't that the whole reason for posting it, so people would see it?

Read my post again, Nancy. I never said you bashed him in emails. I said you are always bashing Wendell on OH. And you are. And what's "I don't want to reveal my reasons at this time" supposed to mean, if not that you were having your own doubts about SandyR? Sounds a hell of a lot like trying to cozy up to Wendell and play both sides of the field. You're nice to people when it suits you, but when they aren't looking, you'll drag them through the mud.

That sounds like cozying up to you? Interesting. He said "e-mail me if you want the info". So I did. I'm not going to answer what I meant by "my own reasons". It's none of your business.

I'm nice to nice people, and not so nice to people who aren't. Pretty simple.

Really?

So....

What do you think of Sondra Tabor?

Such a lively thread. I am so tired of regular LBT. I know it's necessary for people to do their research when thinking about the band.

How do you cruise the board? I usually go to new posts. But lately it's mostly people who are doing what they need to do, which is research the band. Where do people go who have the band and are just cruising along without problems go to get their daily dose of LBT?
