Do you mumble it out loud? Because sometimes I do. Maybe I'm wording it incorrectly, I don't want people to feel that they have to "censor" themselves here. It's just that everyone's opinion of what is socially acceptable is different, and everything's changed with the internet. I mean, I would never dream of telling an acquaintance my medication regimen, but others love to share. Is it that they seek attention, or I'm too rigid in my medical confidentiality?

Oh and btw, that last bit - not too much info at all. I hope you're drinking something really nice.
Why, yes I am. If you consider Labatt Blue Light nice.

I will tear up some whisky sours. Sh*t yeah. Alabama Slammers too. Of course, I don't know what's actually in a real slammer, since we used to just dump a bunch of different juices & bottles of booze into the recycling bin back in the day. Yeah. We was classy.

I read this wrong, the first time, because I made ONE menstrual joke(quite some time ago), and I thought "I" was being pigeonholed(make your own joke, here).

I'm 100% anti-censorship, but NO, I don't want to hear about "I just had sex", or advice on giving blowjobs. The only thing that I thought WAS getting out of hand, was too many Chit Chat things in the other forums. It doesn't bother me(hardly at all), BUT, I'd noticed that a few regular Ledgies, have almost quit posting(and these are people who rarely post in Chit Chat). I can only ASSume that they don't care for all the chit chat, in the MUSIC forums. And I hate to see them leave, and hope that I'm wrong, that all the chit chat in "their" forums, hasn't run them off. I DO think that chit chat belongs IN Chit Chat, though. Does Bop belong in Pre-Rumours? Probably not.


The "what are you eating" thread? If that doesn't SCREAM, "don't read me, unless you have no life!", I don't know what does! BTW, I love that thread!

Of course. And often I use, er, different words. You know, like "Dude, I really don't give a ****" or, alternately, "You're an idiot" depending on what's being said. But the ultimate outcome is the same: I just move on to the next post.

Well personally I have shared here what antidepressants I take, in the past, because there's such a stigma about the disease and taking meds for it. So many people just try to buck up and take it. I did that for about 10 years and it is VERY hard to treat depression that you've had for that long. So, in the interest that I could possibly help someone avoid that, I have shared that information. So no, it wasn't for attention. Although sometimes I probably do post for attention.
