That's it, you're permanently ignored. I used to think there was some hope for you but no, there is none.

I hope this extra bit of attention helps you finish off.

Goaty left after comments on one thread? What was it about?

So, same old then.

Oh the thread in which Goaty left?

Might've had something to do with my link to a definition of 'black humour' which mentioned Bill Hicks at the bottom.

Then again maybe it didn't.

He's a good laugh on Live regardless.

I'm glad it was a happy ending :-)

Mine didn't turn out that way. Goaty hasn't been back since as far as I'm aware, and Light made his feelings quite plain as well.

Anyway, I'd rather not dwell on that.

So. Dubya. What an idiot, eh?

It does to me; the amount of times I got my ass handed to me on a plate simply because I refused to deviate from my original position in the face of all the evidence was ridiculous. Eventually I learned that it wasn't remotely humiliating to admit "Y'know what? maybe I don't know it all". Whereas constantly bleating how everyone was being so unfair was somewhere beyond embarrassing...

Yep about 2 months ago I went and did a full blown booze fuelled rant at snake10, going as far to create a new thread to get maximum exposure. It was on the harsh side, he was posting a few comments without really looking at facts beforehand and after being wound up by all the just arriveds posting rubbish (this was in the school holidys by the way) my rage all came out directed unfairly at him.

We've made up now though.

"bite my tongue and correct it."

That's the thing. As long as you learn from it, it can only be good. Sure, you may write (or in my case draw) something not so good, but you learn and next time you don't make the same mistake.

Same as on here. Say something wrong, for whatever reason, or generally act like a tool and people point it out to you. So next time you're in a bad mood or whatever, you make sure you don't make the same mistake again.

Does any of that actually make sense?

I used to do it at University all the time. Would write an essay and read it through and realise it was a piece of rubbish, throw a strop and stomp off to do something else and start again a while later. Still do get upset at rubbish I produce but now I bite my tongue and correct it.

Yup, have to do it sometimes at work with a design. It's the hardest thing in the world to step back from something you've drawn up* and look at all its faults.

*Same goes for something that's been said or written or anything.
