look, cicero. here is how i see it.
you know liz, so you probably know that the people on these forums are really cool. they are my friends, and not just on the internet, i've met a lot of them in real life. so let's think of these forums as a party where me and all my friends are talking and having fun. liz says, 'hey i know this guy and he is okay, i'll invite him too' and then you show up and are a complete tool. we are all hanging out and having fun and talking and you are all like 'HAY GUISE, LOOK AT ME I CAN MAKE DICKISH COMMENTS LOLOLOLOL CAN I BE IN YOUR CLIQUE NOW?' and we are all like 'umm.... that guy is kind of annoying and i think the party would be more fun if he shut up a little bit or made an attempt to get to know us before jumping in and being a dick to everyone' and liz is like 'oh man guys, i swear he is cool outside of this party i have no idea what is going on and i am so sorry.'
yeah, that's what it is like. it's not that i take the internet seriously, it is more like this is a place where i come to talk to my friends and you are being a jerk.
