U R the one thrasing it! That's why! I thought I was funny, Ron is almost always funny (well he tries). I remember reading in the FL BS thread your posting about sucking, so if this one sucks also, I don't know man.

You also had some unkind words about Plant City and even Lakeland. Dude no offense, but you sounds like a pretty negative dude to me. Let me put it to you this way, I live in freacking OK, far from the my fam, my friends, the gulf, Clearwater Beach and everthing I find beautiful, and guess what my life does not suck! I LOVE my life!

Maybe I haven't read enough of your posts, so my view is rather skewed, but I'm just telling you what I see. I could be wrong though, I mean it does happen!

Chops
02-22-2012, 04:15 PM

Chops

Also, I was not referring to this thread "sucking". I was referring to the fact that it "sucks" that no one else is posting here. It has nothing to do with me or that I started the thread. It's probably because everyone is posting mostly on the Tampa Bay forum still because it's local, and also posting more on CR.net.

I'm not trashing anything or anyone, and I am not negative. I just can't tolerate a bunch of senseless BS such as in the FL BS thread. It may be funny to you two guys, but no one else, hence why you were the only two posting in there.

Let me offer some constructive criticism. How about you posting in here about the ridicoulous things that happen from time to time in St. Pete? I'm sure there is no shortage of crazy things happening (like the cop that ran over the guy on wheelchair), or the sillines of the peeps from the south side naming a rec center after a criminal that died while shooting at the cops.

I don't know just throwing ideas around!

Yes, agree, if you guys want the Florida section grow then help to populate it!!! Tell your Floridian friends to post here! Create some chatter threads. Local news is fine too, current events or event local events (preferred)!

Excuse me,I have torn myself from the senseless meaningless BULL SHIT that you call our friendly banter to suggest something that might help your St Pete Dudes and Dudettes thread. A little while back I started a thread re: a possible Q S & L meet. If you planned one on a weekend I'd be willing to bet a small fortune of say .02 that you might just get a response from more than the three of you. While you are referring to your coolness you might actually gain some interest if you did something positive instead of bashing others. * caution: this would require you to be tolerant though.

And this is coming from someone who has no clue about me.

Yes, I put forth the effort to "accomplish" things. However, that has to do with my life in the real world, NOT a forum. And I wasn't under the impression that this community needed any help...

On that note, I'm all for playful banter. There's absolutely nothing wrong with it. It's normally something that goes on for a few posts and that's it. But when you keep coming back to a thread on a daily basis and see the same "friendly" playful banter between the two same people day in and day out, it gets old and quite annoying. Sorry, that's how I feel about it and I'm not the only one that feels that way. I'm just the only one that says anything about it. Big whoop. Get over it. It's not the end of the world.


Thumper, you probably haven't noticed, but I haven't been on here much lately. It has nothing to do with the forum or anything of the like. I've just had other things going on that have been taking up my time elsewhere. I didn't notice the new thread you made earlier. Also, I wouldn't be the best person to plan things just because I live in St Pete. My work schedule collides with just about everyone else's, and as for prime locations, I know almost nothing about St Pete. I live in the most northern tip of St Pete and work in Lakeland which is also where I spend most of my time unfortunately.


With that said, my intentions with this thread was not to plan small events in my area or anything like that. It was just meant for a head count more than anything in the St Pete area.


I didn't come on here trying to look or act like a dick to everyone. I simply speak my mind. The members who've met me in person like me well enough and invite me to meets and photo shoots and stuff all the time. Whether I can make any of them or not is a different story. I'm sure as heck not going to be provoked or engage in arguments. That's the last thing I feel like doing.

Anyway...

It's not my fault if you take things I say the wrong way... Such as I see you now, as someone trying to prove a point about something that isn't there, and/or making up something that was never said to begin with.




What are you referring to? I just read his postings, I did not read any insults against any events. I'm a missing something?

That's because there were no insults against any events or any person.

The only thing I "may" complain about sometimes is the distance to a weekly meet, but that's only because I drive over 100+ miles every day for work, and the last thing I want to do is drive 50 miles round trip on my day off to just have dinner. Plus the fact there's three of us which makes it even more inconvenient. We either have to take two cars (twice as much gas used) or just take the Cube which then misses the point of going to a "Miata" meet without your Miata.

And quite frankly f86sabjf, I don't see why I have to explain myself to you... Again, you don't know anything about me and it seems as though you just came in here to start something with me. I have real problems in the real world to deal with. I don't need you trying to start crap with me in here. I can easily deal with you by putting you in the ignore list.

I don't mind members calling out other members, but if you are going to do so, make sure that A) the right person is called out, and B) the right event/moment is mentioned.

Also what happens outside this forum should be irrelevant to what happens inside of it...

LOL! That's funny since I have yet to make it to a single Lakeland meet. And by Lakeland meet, I'm sure you're referring to the big annual Central Florida meet.

Yeah, on to other news, today in fact...

I get a phone call from my girlfriend at work today, worried as hell (almost in tears) because our daughter's (her's actually but she might as well be mine) school had a bomb threat today and they had to evacuate the entire school for several hours. They moved all the students over to the high school next door. There were tons of cops around as well as I think two bomb squads with a bomb disposal unit. Teresa and other parents were trying to pick up their kids and the cops wouldn't let them.

After about 2-3 hours of this and they find out that it was a bogus threat, so let the students back into the school.

The Driver

That's pretty effed up to scare little kids like that, and for what? When I was in HS we... some people at school:ninja: would do stuff like that to get out of a test, but back then even the cops thought it was a joke, and there were rumors that firemen would hurry, so that they could get to the girls ASAP...


That was before Sept 11, so things were different though...

There's a lot of stupid people out there. From what Teresa told me, I think a package of some kind actually showed up at the school which put everything in motion. I thought I was going to have to leave work for a little bit there until I was told that they let the kids back into the school.
