Like the URL of your wedding invitation you and your wife's real names, real addresses, the fact that you were getting married, etc.
1) The URL was part of the design I was asking to be critiqued in creative convention. You'll notice I'm not an idiot and made sure the site I ended up using was registered and owned by me before paying to have the things printed. I also didn't go with that design because it was too gothy.
2) Our (full) real names were posted on the internet by the news paper she put the engagement announcement in, not by me. She didn't request this, they just did it.
3) We never posted our real addresses.
4) What I'm not supposed to talk about what's going on in my life with people I've been bullshitting with for 6 years? What kind of crap is that?
My only mistake was posting the critique request on creative convention. I didn't think that sub forum had the audience to be worried about something like this happening. Most of the posters there seem pretty professionally oriented, at least in the threads I've read. Blindy. fucked around with this message on 08-23-2007 at 10:00 PM.

Mr. Gainsborough attempted to be funny by writing:
Shit, that's why America's Funniest Home Videos was made. Sure, I wouldn't laugh if I got hit in the nuts with a baseball bat, but it's fucking funny when it happens to someone else.
I was taking a shit at work the other day, and I was overcome with the immense urge to start singing the old theme song to America's Funniest Home Videos. You know, for the old Bob Saget seasons. After I finished up (sang it about two times, I'm a speed shitter), I was greeted by a very bemused doctor who was no longer certain she wanted to employ me.
It was the best part of my week.

Think of it as a sacrafice in the name of art. As a rule, I try not derive any personal pleasure out of the misfortune of others, but in this case, I'd be willing to make an exception. In the name of art, that is.

Hahaha, wait ...what does that have to do with my post?
I ALREADY SAID that sure it wouldn't be funny if it happened to me. But, I also said I wasn't stupid enough to put private info I don't want people fucking with online.

Bloodsage had this to say about Knight Rider:
So you're just some lame moron who gets his kicks pretending he's somebody by trying to fuck people over anonymously. Aren't you so cool? I don't give a fuck who you are, dipshit, but why don't you have the balls to let the person you're trying to screw over know who's behind the oh-so-brilliant plan?
How am I anonymous? The domain info isn't private, I've given out my name, and my IP isn't masked behind a proxy. I don't know any of you in real life, so I'm not sure what else you would want me to do to not be "anonymous." You're kind of dumb.
quote:
Bloodsage painfully thought these words up:
One doesn't fuck with people's real lives just because, in a fit nerd rage, one decides one doesn't like someone on the internet. If he hasn't got the spine to stand up and face the person he's trying to fuck, he's a coward and scum worse than Blindy ever could be.
Lol, it wasn't nerd rage. It was just to entertain myself. I'm not trying to "destroy" his wedding. I could not care less. I just saw the invite and thought it was really gay. What do you want me to do to "stand up and face him?" This is the Internet, do you want me to come to his house and challenge him to a fight? You seem to be into this more than I am. Since he didn't send out the invite, I don't even care anymore and will give up the domain if it's easy to transfer and doesn't take more than a few minutes for me to do.

I never knew which was which for most of my life so now I only figure it out by associating the "f" in "former" with "first."
Also, I lied. I'm from Helldump. I don't know what Evercrest is although I assume it's something involving Everquest.
And I just changed http://www.tom-and-jen.com again since bindy didn't flip out like some of you would have (bloodsage) and didn't make a big deal about it. I'm done with that URL and doubt I'll come back to this thread. I still think that web site is fucking ridiculous and proposing at a steakhouse is lame. Also, you need to lose 20 lbs before your wedding and your fiancee needs to lose at least 7. Later. Kirjath fucked around with this message on 08-24-2007 at 02:09 PM.

But since you expect never to return to read this post, I probably should have written it in third person.

Nah, it think it would be more along the lines of live ordnance "accidently" falling off patrolling aircraft, and magically finding their way to someone's front yard. Or something.
But seriously, "lol internet" is hardly an excuse for vaccuous morality and downright asshattery. An asshole by any other name is still an asshole. And the fact that he spent money to make fun of someone he doesn't even know just makes it all the more pathetic. Just a hint: Shit-forum goons don't have the highest credibility when insulting other people's social acceptability.

Apparently taking your girlfriend out to a nice formal restaurant overlooking the entire city to propose is lame, or something. I suppose doing it at twilight and reserving a table that is at the corner of the windowed overhang with a 270 degree view of the skyline is down right fagotty.

No, it's just that when I have a beef with someone, I've got the balls to solve it face-to-face instead of through some anonymous act of neurotic passive-aggressive cowardice.

I can actually get a pretty good read on a person's nature (whether someone's a nice person or an ass), but have difficulty recognizing momentary states (such as sarcasm). Text-based environments (such as this place) tend to exaggerate both of these aspects; people express themselves more openly, but hastily-written text suffers from a distinct lack of vocal inflections.
Is there a reason you're suddenly so interested in drawing my presence to the forefront? Most people who don't like me find it much easier just to not respond.

I can't be sure of that.
He doesn't have any ability to connect with people or express himself in any coherent fashion, but he tries way too hard for social acceptance, often to the point of alienating those around him. He fits a profile and I can't take the chance of him getting us in trouble like Kekvit did, which 'Doc, I believe, was a good friend of.
If he undergoes psychiatric evaluation and gets a registered therapist to vouch for him, then sure.

Why can't you attack people any more based on the content of their posts (which isn't very hard in Doc's case) rather than attacking a non-existant (or maybe who knows) real life problem that they have?
You know I'm on yo side bro, but take a different angle. This schtick is gettin' old and you say the same psycho pedo thing about everyone you hate. Most of the people are downright retarded whenever they "show their faces" (as Bloodsage would say ohoho), so why can't you just attack that?
The thing is, when you attack Doc's posts, or what little there is of them, he doesn't understand. He can't comprehend it, like Kennatsu; they're both rather sub-human in that they can't understand if a person doesn't like them.
