Foxrac said:
My comment is about worse than other. When ask about which is dangerous? texting while walking or texting while driving, so I said texting while driving is a lot worse, but texting while walking is still dangerous too.

No disagreement here. :D

Yeah , did you hear about the woman that was texting in a mall and she walked right into the water fountain . She wanted to sues the mall too . :roll:
 
the hard part is never letting them see you sweat chigagoblue

I see it all the time here in Chicago... inattentive people texting, and walking right into other people and/or objects. They need to PUT THE PHONE AWAY, and keep their eyeballs on where they're going. Plain and simple as that. Not that hard to do.

Yeah? Easier said than done. If I wasn't being made fun of and all that, and I put up with it TO A POINT. If we could all just drop the old news and start afresh, then I would be good. Until then.....
 
its all good.
i wouldn't worry about it too much man. really

Yeah, well. I suppose I could move on, but doing that isn't gonna be easy to do-- it's gonna be hard to forget how rough they had it for me recently. I do not take kindly to that, and I am a soft-hearted person, and people like me who are kind to others do NOT take kindly to being given a rough day or whatever, and I would like to get along with everyone here, but I still haven't made any friends yet, and that'll take time. I just need patience, and focus on other things. I may or may never have friends, and that's okay-- just as long as I have access to here, I'm good.

That's right..... you weren't part of the thread that said "How do you like to personalize your living space". Well, just go and take a look at that, and come back here and tell me. Many people laughed their butts off at MY expense, and least of all, I was way too tired to even realize my mistake. Now, I'm not trying to bash anyone, but I just wish that I could forget what happened that day, and move on, but the way they had a good time and I did not wasn't cool. Plus, I was way too exhausted to even think straight.

Really? Do we really need a law that says we can't walk and text at the same time.... I hope not.

I don't remember where we were, but we saw a sign that said "no texting while walking". Hubby says it was some place really crowded, but his memory is going just like mine.:laugh2:

I have no problem if someone is doing something stupid and they get hurt, but if they do something stupid and hurt me, family,friends or innocent bystanders, that is a total different story.

Texting while driving = Driving Impaired IMO

Mark I was not part of that thread, but think of it this way. If people didn't like you they would just ignore you. Friends like to laugh with friends and yes it could be over something silly we did. You had a ton of people joking around WITH you not AT you. BIG, BIG difference. One of us could have easily made the same simple mistake you did and we will get made fun of too. We are all friends here and watch out for each other. It is good to laugh at times, especially since this world is full of angry people.

One day I went to work and for the whole day I had worn my shirt inside out. None of my employees told me, but got a big laugh at the end of the day before I went home. It actually cracked me up. That is what true friends do. We kid around, no one said anything personal to you, just joking on you.

Remember you would feel a lot worse if everyone just ignored you, right?
Hope this helps.

Here's the thing though-- I used to get ribbed a lot in Jr high and high school, and it wasn't pleasant, and getting ribbed here brings back unpleasant memories, which I have been trying really hard to forget, and I nearly succeeded. Now I have to get back to where I was before, and that's gonna take time.

It would, except the fact that I came from a very bad childhood, which makes it difficult sometimes to tell the difference between joking and ribbing. Now that I am an adult, I still want to try and make actual friends, but my childhood is somehow preventing me from being who I truly am, and that's a problem, because I am not this person now -- I am struggling a little bit, but hopefully I'll get better within time..

I had a lot of unfortunate life as well, so you are not alone.
