Re: DEVON
in reply to a message by Devonelisa
I know what Ja9 did, I wasnt talkin about him/her at all.
I was talkin about you and your quote wich was:
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Meaning, even if Ja9 posted 6 times, you posted more then once as well, you were doing the same thing Ja9 did a couple of times and expected different results. Thats why. Oh and Im not 'one of those' cause I wouldnt reply if youd understand me.
I never said the forum or the members are terribly offensive to me.
I dont disagree about that with you. I disagree with you about the Erin/Aryn topic. See now why I have to reply? And replying just because I have to have the last word no matter what... def not true.
But to call it a mistake.

Hi Ava,
You're still missing the point about Devon's repeated replies to Ja9 - it's called a joke. Her repetition was funny because it was pointing out Ja9's repetition. Get it?!
Yes, I'm being sarcastic to you. I've been watching this thread, and I'm getting tired of your whinging. Devon gave her honest (although forthright) opinion in her reply to your original post - there was no need for you to take it personally and attack Devon in response.
As for us all taking this too seriously - well, duh! This is a serious site and most of the people who post on this board are scholarly people, whether formally or informally, so if you ask a question you'll get a serious answer. If you want candyfloss, go elsewhere.
Please don't "go off" at me the way you have at Devon - strange as it may seem to you, I'm trying to help you here. I'm sure you're a very nice, friendly person, but you're coming across as an immature whiner. If that bothers you, you might want to do something about it! If you re-read Devon's original post with an objective eye, you'll see that while her opinion might have been a bit strongly stated, it was still only her opinion and was in direct answer to your query. No-one will think any the less of you for just dropping the subject - but they will think much less of you for continuing in your current vein.

"go off"? Well I guess the problem is that you guys missed the point about Devon & Ja9, cause I made a joke too.
