It's so nice to see people with a basic understanding of avian digestive tracts.

Honestly, I don't care for the gizzard so much. I prefer the livers. Evil

This thread seems to contradict that statement...



Moo is actually a really sweet, fun and caring person. She just has a low tolerance for people who complain in many of their posts.

I hate my job so I hate my life? How does that make any sense? That's funny you say that, because I've heard that Moo's very good friend on SD complains every 5 seconds and half the stories are all lies Smilie

This will probably teach me to read the whole thread before replying again. Even though that's usually way less fun for me. Frown

Moot, I hope I can say this as your friend. Because I am your friend! And I hope what I'm about to say is received that way. I'd expect the same from any one of you if I did something that was out of line so if y'all are holding back and blowing smoke up my rear, please don't!!

And I'm posting this publicly so hopefully others can benefit too? Plus I really don't like being all secretive and clandestine about anything.

/disclaimer

Your response above ... disappointed me.

I don't think everyone in the Lounge has to love or even like each other. But I don't think what UTR posted deserved that kind of reply. It seemed awfully harsh compared to what she posted - at least in my opinion.

I got a similar message about her nasal activities from UTR in a PM and I laughed! I didn't think she was complaining at all but that, again, is just my opinion.

As I was reminded recently by the helpful moderation staff Whee, as much as we sometimes think of this thread as "ours" and "private", it's public and not private at all. I saw some new names in the thread as I reading and I think that's great! Can't we welcome nearly everyone equally? And if we can't, can't we just put them on ignore instead?

Hell, I'd even welcome OwenKealy, DBC, and some of the more obviously near-trollish users in here! Unless they or anyone else were doing the kinds of things I sometimes see in other threads. But I don't think UTR was guilty of any of that.

Of course all that's just one old man's opinion.

Maybe I missed something in another thread and I'm way off base. I make mistakes! It happens.

We could all be a little more tolerant, understanding, and compassionate towards our fellow Loungers. I didn't see any of that in the reply above. Not that UTR needs anyone to defend her at all - she's a sharp and witty young lady! But I thought I should say something here along those lines - myself included in that audience.

Ref,
My response to you would be that what I wrote has no bearing on the nasal spray comment. I think you know that.
She came in a thread that I frequent and I chose to tell her what I think on constant whining about bullshit. I gave perfect examples that warrrant being miserable 24/7....but they "bore" her. Of course they do!!! And no I will not be tolerant of that shit in a thread that I frequent.

And my tone when telling her about herself.....here are just 2 examples- If you need more let me know.

She has a tendancy to call a perfectly innocent FRIENDLY person a whore and a drunk. This person has done nothing to UTR.

And isn't this sweet?

Sorry, I have no tolerance for people like this. And I am not the only one.

I have said what is the truth. I am done with the conversation.

All those same concepts about tolerance, understanding, and compassion apply to you too, missy. Same disappointment too here as well. Frown

I swear I'd love to take a lot of you on/over my knee and teach you a few things!!!

That's exactly why it seemed harsh and out of line. Or at least that's why I thought it did!

I still don't see the complaining part in what she posted. We all have posts just like that I think.

I tried smoothing that bridge over. I think I got both sides to agree to just "Let it be" for the most part. But I'm old and senile and old too! So I could maybe have that wrong.

Quote from Moot-N-Me :
I have said what is the truth.
It's an opinion Mootsy. We all have them. I wouldn't ever tell you yours were more right or wrong than anyone else's. I can agree with yours or someone else's opinion, but we all spin our own bias on opinions sometimes.

I was reading something jenni wrote the other day -

Quote from jenni. :
I would like to think we could all talk and even disagree without continually being baby-sat,
I'd really like for us - and I do mean all of us; I lump my sorry old ass in there too!! - to be able disagree with people and ideas without it becoming personal. And if we can't, can't we just use ignore instead?

Aside from the trolls - and there are a few that are - we're all just human people/frogs. We're all flawed and screwed up in our own ways.

Would you believe not every one thinks I'm all sunshine and rainbows????! It's the truth a popular opinion!!!
