When is it time to call it quits?

Recommended Posts

No, not on skydiving, not on dropzone.com, but on an individual thread...

I was just thinking about this as I clicked on a thread and thought "why on earth do I keep checking this thread?"

When canvasanchor finally gets banned. :D:D

No more psycho drama after that.[:/]



That's what the third option in the list is for. ;)

Hey, when HH actually steps in to decree something, the views of it multiply by around 10X normal. That's when it gets exciting. :ph34r::ph34r:

that's when it gets sycophantic:S

I do that all the time.

I quit when I'm no longer amused at the ridiculousness, but am saddened by it.

Of course, sometimes I'll check back in hopes of once again being amused. If saddened once more, I tend to then move on toward annoyed--this usually happens after my first or mid-way through my second glass of wine. It is during this time I'll post something I later read and get annoyed at myself b/c I could have been MUCH clearer and concise in making my point.

I, like you, need to learn to quit after the first .

When I get the feeling of impending stroke or brain aneurysm, then I quit.

The desire to jump threw the screen and strangle some web jumper normally comes first.

No point of me quoting this part except to add to the option on the poll.

I don't really take much too seriously. It's typically only after a drink or two I read something in SC and start rambling to myself and my fingers follow.:D

I played concert classical piano for quite some time. My fingers are used to keeping up with my brain--sometimes quite unfortunately.:$:P

I was surprised to see the number of votes for "When it gets locked." Those are the ones I read first.:|

For me it's when its a repost or the thread already has over a 100 replies. Those I generally cannot be bothered with.

When more than 50% of the thread turns into (insert DZ.commer) flirting with (insert DZ.commer), regardless of the thread context.



I think he's saying he doesn't want us to flirt with each other anymore, Krisanne. [:/]

:D


Are you kidding? He's the one who put cameras in my house last week hoping to catch some girl-on-girl action when you were in town. :D

Now that IS a spectator sport, the online flirting, not so much:D
