Maybe it's a male vs female thing? I don't recall ever hearing a woman use those terms in a pleasant manner. I've actually been slapped a couple times for using terms like that to address a man, granted I was trying to provoke a reaction at the time, so I just don't see me using those to address anyone I actually like. Or maybe it's an age thing, I am older than both you and Drae.

 

Not by much sweetheart

 

Pffffft... I could literally be BA's mother, and I've got darn near a decade and a half on you. Man it sounds bad when you say it like that. :smt087

 

Kind of like some women might say bitch or slut in a joking way. A form of endearment nonetheless l.

 

Yeah, I don't do that either. Bitch is an insult coming from me. But I see the parallel.

 

Don't lie, andrae. Almost everytime I was logged on, you were too. I kept thinking that for someone that was gone, you sure were around a lot. LOL

 

It's hard though to read and not respond, at least it is for me. I think I'm just going to read a few posts and the next thing you know I'm posting. I'm actually surprised he made it as long as he did, I wouldn't have been able to last that long.

 

This thread probably needs to die. Andrae is probably kicking himself for ever saying goodbye in a public way ..........but each person adds their own special flavor around here and who are we all to run anyone off.

And in closing........lol at the JayZ reference.

 

So much for honor amongst number crunchers stop trying to play me kid damn.

 

Not at all JC. I saw on a seperate thread that my presence was wanted so I said why not? For the greater good feel me

 

As you can see, we have turned you thread into nonsense in certain parts. That's what happens when you leave.:lol:

 

Andrae, the whole thing was pretty transparent. You made a big fuss about going, hung around to see how people would react, then when one or two people mention that they lamented your absence, you make this grand re-entrance like some revered legend who can't deny his "fans" his presence? Please. There were plenty of people who were happy you were gone.

 

You tell him. Just what I was thinking. And what Girly74 said kind of proves it.

I Dont want Andrae to leave, but he is definately lying!

 

I think it's just a generation thing. These days, shit talking means you are close to a person. Whether it's a male or female in my group. I'll walk in their house and go "What's up muthafuckas". They go "What's up, mofo". I see that in almost all groups my age. People these days will say "fuck you" to a friend and won't get offended. Hell, we crack jokes about each other's families in my group.

 

I think you're right BA. I note my son speaks to his friends at times using terms I do not think are appropriate, and I get onto him a lot. But family is just off limits for everyone around here. As long as you and your friends are on the same page, that's all that matters.

 

I honestly don't think that's it Whikle, one thing I know about Andrae is he really doesn't care what anyone else thinks. He intended to take a break, I have no doubt of that, and sometimes that's really what you need to do. We had a few weeks where it seemed negativity and name calling were really prevalent. I stopped posting for a week or so about that time too, but I still logged in periodically to read posts. Sometimes I think you just have to take a couple days off when you start getting irritated or tired of arguing, but it's hard to stay away for long. However, I am pleased Andrae is back, he's always up for a good discussion.

 

Whikle if you are one of those who feels that way all you have to is hir ignore and you don't have to be bothered with me. What I don't get about people and Madiba is if a person like myself isn't to your like why bother saying anything to me or paying attention to me?
Btw ever hear of sarcasm? I wasn't being serious.

Can anyone take a fucking joke anymore. Jesus!

 

That's why I've never said anything to you about it before, Andrae. It's not even worth it. I was just calling you out on your bullshit, here. People see through it.

 

Whikle apparently you felt it was worth it because you HAD to call me out on my bullshit. Again Whikle if you feel the need to "put me in my place" over a stupid thread then again ignore me. It costs you nothing to pay me no mind.
There's nothing to see through. I was upset on a particular day and felt like I couldn't do this anymore and then I changed my mind. What exactly is the big deal?

 

Not a big deal at all, Andrae, not a big deal at all.
