Am I the only one that feels this way?

Lately I've been noticing that a lot of the posts and responses have been ladled with sarcasm or anger. It seems like every time I read a thread, someone has something harsh to say. Am I the only one noticing this?

Maybe it's just coincidence - maybe the threads I click on are highly controversial or something. But seriously, it's getting to be ridiculous in my opinion.

I just wanted to get that off my chest.

People don't always agree....

...if you want to vent...get a blog. LMAO... :D ....just sayin' of course!

I Hate sarcasimcommunistic threads that hurt peoples feelings... Grow up!!:rolleyes:

"I Hate sarcasimcommunistic threads that hurt peoples feelings... Grow up!!"

Um what?

Please see the following grammar rules:
Your = possessive. You're = you are.
It's - a contraction that means "it is".
You would say "More than".
To - used in expressions like, "to walk".
Too - means "in excess" or "as well".
"A lot" is TWO words. "Allot" means to distribute.
"I could care less" means that you actually care. It's "I couldn't care less".
"Affect" is a verb. "Effect" is a noun.

Is this School? Or a public Forum? I am Highly offended by this sig..

It's just part of the weather cycle of the Internet. Some days seem sunny and calm...others seem stormy. It'll pass. It'll return. It'll pass again.

It's also highly dependent on your own mood. If you're (meaning the universal "you" and not mindibun in particular) having a bad day and feeling edgy or stressed...then you'll pick up a lot more of the negative vibes that are always around. If you're in a good place and feeling confident and optimistic...then those few negative vibes will bounce right off you and you'll focus in on all the good stuff that is also always there...and in far greater concentrations, I might add. ;)

Now this is wrong just wrong :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Hey all...I am noticing this too...if you want to see one that is a little out of control, check out the Chihuahua Shipping post that I put up. People are actually calling eachother "ignorant" on there and saying other things that I do not think belong here.

I joined this forum to seek help and advice, make some friends and share my experience as well as gain more experience from those that know better than me.

I must say that I have noticed a great deal of things on here that seem to me should be handled in a more mature way or at the very least in a private message setting to settle the difference.

:salute:

Some of you are skating on very thin ice right now. Take it out of the forums. :colbert:

honestly, i haven't noticed anymore sarcasm or insults than usual... there's always going to be someone that gets upset or frustrated and says exactly what they think. and that's gonna upset other people and so on....

I tend to joke around alot and it always comes from a desire to laugh, not from negativity or at someone else's expense mind you, I just like to be a big silly goof. However what might be a harmless little comment to me can sometimes be taken as offensive to someone else. I certainly hope if that happens people will remind me to take my medication. Once I'm back to normal I'm actually a very nice guy. :rolleye2:

I have noticed it...but you just have to take it in stride. Usually the people that start a lot of trouble, or mostly argue, will get tired of it and quit posting, or not post as often. With many schools starting back up, I think that may get rid of some of it as well....there won't be as many bored people just looking for something to post.


On a side note

I haven't met anyone else that notices this!!! I'm not usually big on grammar and whatnot, but I have a very hard time not correcting people on this one! :P

I'm generally nice. It does get frustrating to read 3 thread in a row titled "LAWLS IS MY PeTZ a NORMAL I THINK NOT!?". Those just get annoying in mass quantities like they have been.

Other than that I'm a nice person and I do like to joke around a lot.

Any place where you have people from different backgrounds and different beliefs your always going to have conflict. Like Judy said it comes and goes... always will... I'm curious as to when ignorant became a bad word? We're all ignorant in one way or another so people need to have a thicker skin when coming on here and posting. I dont agree with a good portion of what I read on here but rather than starting a ruckous, which in the end will not change a single thing... I just move along.

I realize that not everyone will always get along. My point is, even if we're from different backgrounds or whatever, we should still be able to refrain from name-calling and generally being rude to each other.

Whatever happened to "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all" ? Seriously...
