This has been a really interesting past couple of days on here. Little did I know I missed a drunken meltdown too? :/

But yeah. I feel like I understand all that jazz and broadway guy. I was that kid in 2006. I had a different account back then and got in I many weird fights. Mind you, I was in middle school but still. So, in short: it gets better. Especially with age.

Ljay -- I don't think one is any worses than the other. They are both a product of their environment/generation. The environment of entitlement -- which includes being congratulated on every little thing they've ever said or done. They don't know how to listen to others and actually have a conversation. No one has ever told them that it is possible they are wrong. (I'm not saying they are always wrong, either.)

I see it all the time -- and then students are shocked when they don't do well on a paper or exam. Because they did it "their way" or didn't follow instructions. I can't tell you how many essays I get that kids don't even answer the writing prompt. Then they argue with you that their grade is unfairly low.

The whole "I believe what I believe so therefore I am right" is a lifestyle. Look at how they use words incorrectly and when that is pointed out their defense is...well that's not how I'M using the word. Like word definitions are arbitrary and up to the individual.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.

There was a poster here a long time ago who was a young teen and (allegedly) has aspergers. He was very similar to broadway guy in that he was always lashing out (big dramatic lashing out) at every little perceived slight.
(the throw downs between him and papalovemambo were epic)

Several of us tried to explain to him that his anti-social behavior was making him persona non grata. He lacked the basic social skills to participate in this type of forum.

I don't bother with these kinds of posters anymore because I don't know if they have some kind of learning or other disability and can't help themselves.

BUT - even if they do have some sort of problem there are still basic rules of conduct that no one is excused from if they want to be taken seriously.

Jazz, I don't know if you're a troll or not. I personally don't think you are (although my troll radar is not as finely tuned as Diva's or Jordan's). The gun gif was a bad call. Ok, learn from it and move on.

For what it's worth I'd rather have 10 posters like Jazz than 1 poster like those trolls who took over the board Sunday night, or someone as thoroughly obnoxious as gchris11.

I agree with every single word. However, it's not just the students exhibiting this behavior. I was in a department meeting recently where another professor (Yale educated, I might add, with about 3 advanced degrees) kept using a word incorrectly in a rant against another professor's curriculum proposal. When the definition was read aloud to him (Guess who?

) his response was "That's not my meaning of the word." I was appalled.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)

D2 -- that is indeed sad. And I would guess, a Yalee (I have no idea how to spell that!) would believe he, too, is infallible.

I remember that poster, Taz. He was an instigator but I remember thinking that there were people on here that reacted completely inappropriately - (ass-burgers, etc.)

I know you. I know you. I know you.

^ Oh! I remember that. I remember Papa (and others) continuously saying that aspergers isn't a real disorder. I found it all pretty disturbing.

I feel like I missed something really good after I went off to dreamland yesterday.

We need to make a melt-down alert system that is sent out to all message-board members via text or email when something really juicy is going on.

I turn my head for a few minutes. Earlier this thread had 3 full pages but had to do some work I came back to read and a lot of posts have vanished.

I admit to being that guy back in 2004. I had other names and I told some fibs.

Now I've grown up and I know better.

OOOH boy did I know how to stir trouble?!

Personally too much work maintaining more than one identity. At times I have a hard time just keeping track of the one I was born with. :)

Every summer the children, trolls, sock puppets and assorted other folk with too much time on their hands decide to reek havoc on both the main and this board. Taz was building a playground.

Folks were complaining about the influx of youngsters here who were basically clogging up the boards with their rude/snarky posts.

AllThatJazz started in and had some of her posts deleted which turned into everyone letting ATJ and Broadway Guy know that their 'cute' posts were anything but.
