Your definition of the word 'insult' is tweaked. I don't care. Stop debating with me in this thread and move on. You are the one pursuing this. Let it die.

Fine by me. Just don't take everything I say as an insult.

Well yes, obviously I talk like the peers I spend my time with. In these forums I write casually. Why waste my time editing what I write for this forum? If 200 people ever read it, I'll be lucky. I save my efforts for writing things people will be reading.

Hence why you sound like you are in high school and not like you are 30.

Fair enough.

The only reason I was upset by the comment was because I felt like I was being attacked. I now understand it wasn't an attack, and the words I felt were attacks only seemed so because they would be in the culture I live in, but not in the culture of Seiryu.

And the only reason I took any note at all of the comment was because I am accustomed to being surrounded by people who are stupider than me, and who hold me as a genius. I know it isn't true, not even close, but rarely have I been in an environment like this one where almost everyone is smarter than me.

My reaction was uncalled for. I apologize.

Welcome to the world of growing up. There's always someone smarter than you. You can shrink back, or you can rise to the occasion. Why not spend some time editing those posts? It's not really a huge effort, and it's kind of fun to see what happens.

Just out of curiosity, how many things do you write that will be (or have been) read by more than 200 people?

Shouldn't have said as much as I did. No need to discuss it further.

Or he'll have to kill you, Neo-Dragon.

lol

I don't know if this is a rule or not, but please refrain from such a simple message as "lol."

Nah, there's nothing wrong with the occasional "lol."

Well then, I guess I should apologize. *Walks off without apologizing.*

And YOU were talking about acting young.

But, then again I have no right to say anything on this matter.

This amused me Thanks for making my day

Thanks for making me go to bed. I hate when people say things like that luminousnerd. Now I can at least get some sleep.

Umm...did I miss something here?

Yes.

But, it doesn't matter anyway. Not many people on this forum like me anyway, so getting s*** from is not important.

Watching you talk to yourself is amusing.

Watching threads go off topic is amusing.

I was actually just trying to amuse myself, but I guess you got something out of it too. Damn.

And YOU were talking about acting young.

I see. So making a joke is considered "immature" now?

Well, obviously. Haven't you heard?

Sorry, I wasn't paying attention, I was playing my DS instead. What did you say?

No being an ass is considered immature.

Funny you should mention this. You're not even the one I "wronged." The one I did thought I was funny. I FIND THAT ODD.

For certain reasons I'd rather not say my age, but I am old enough to have had two children.. what a thought!

'87 HUA

Wow, seems things have gotten a little intense in the humble ages thread. I feel so out of the loop! I guess this is what I get for skipping over threads.

pweb is collectively cranky.

It's ok because we like each other.











for the most part.

I'm 27, though I'm brand new here...

For everyone that's younger than Ender's Game, does it affect how you view the books knowing that at least one of them was written before you were born? When I was reading Dune, I had to keep reminding myself that it was written 14 years before I was born, because some of the events in the book make it seem like it was written very recently.

Well, that was a tangent...

Andorbal.

It's an interesting thing to think about, yes. I am the same age as Ender's Game, actually.

I'm 15.

I, Robot was weird to read because the stories were written around the forties and they're set in 204X looking back on the first truly intelligent robots that came about in the 1990's. My opinion of Ender's Game is not affected by how old the book is. That is of course unless it's affected so much that I don't even realize it's affected.

And like 22 of the last 25 posts were on a tangent.

21 here. I think I'm aging well... neh?

21?! You're just a baby!

Actually, that's one of my pet peeves... People who treat you like a little kid just because you're younger than they are (no matter how much younger you are).
