No one owes you squat

I've continued lurking out of sheer boredom, and to PM with a couple of refreshing posters here and on PERB. While doing so, I've been trying to figure out why the boards have been pissing me off lately, and it finally sank home what it is that's bugging me.

It's the sheer arrogance of posters who think they're "owed" a top-10 fantasy every single time that they spend a few dollars.

It's the volume of belligerant jerks who harass agencies and SPs because someone couldn't make their fantasies real.

It's the hordes of lowlife scum who treat SPs with less respect than most people give a fast-food cashier, and then are surprised that the service is disappointing.

In real life, one can walk away from the degenerate masses. Here, they're like telemarketers, constantly interrupting the "meal" of information and fun that the board provides on good days.

The truly sad thing is the knuckle-draggers have me thinking in their own patheric mode, because as I lurk here amongst the virtual rafters, I visualize pissing on the heads of every one of them...

Sure, and then we miss out on the intelligent posts as well because they have been muddied up by drivel.

Thanks.

Ah, what's the point. You'll never 'get it.'

thats was a damn short retirement - who won the pool
Ahh, that's right -- it was Squirrel on PERB who'd nailed the "why" of the break. I am unlikely to "retire" from the board -- I'm just trying to get my real and 'net lives back in balance.

I've been allowing this place to consume too much time and generate too much bile. As long as I keep actively participating in threads, I get riled up over them.

If you can't identify the source of stress, you can't find a way to deal with it. It also takes time to identify the real sources of stress -- usually the thing being blamed isn't entirely at fault, it's just the final trigger that one subconsciously allows to be the excuse for a temper flare.

I could just run away like a child, but that's really not the way I handle my life, real or virtual.
