Usually when people irritate me it isn't for "too long".

"I am curious why you seem intent on grinding an axe here in the lounge".


I'm just kidding, seriously. I guess my sense of humor has gotten atrophied from disuse. Obviously 500 pages is not meant seriously in the extreme. I didn't intend to upset or cause trouble.
I guess my first topic got all goofed up because I was mixing up 3 things at once. It shouldn’t have been titled the way it was, and actually I was mainly commenting about Iron Maiden and how much they surprised me with songs that had meaning. I spoke of having a new guitar and my desire to attain the skill level to work with other good players.
So anyway, sorry I started pulling peoples chains, and I'll try to keep any of my personal life problems to bleed into a nasty sounding attitude. Yep, I'm coming off like a bitter person in my "humor", which I really didn't realize until your comment

I’m going to preface this as an example of me realizing I am coming across with a sarcastic nasty “sense of humor” I’m stating this BEFORE my joke so it isn’t taken seriously. I suppose my personal life problems have affected my attitude. I'm not out for power.I had it it once, I hired, fired, did whatever I wanted to. I came in at 10AM and left at 2PM at least a few times a week and had my right hand man run the place, because I ended up so uncomfortable being in charge. I felt defeated after 3 years of living hell managing and had to quit, throwing 14 years down the drain.

THIS IS A JOKE!

Jeez, the power to run a fish forum is way up there like the mighty power of being the king of a castle like me. I walk around the house wearing a crown, long cape and carry a scepter. I rule over my 2 Persian kitties with an iron fist. They cower in fear of my mighty wrath, should they step out of line.

I didn't miss it because I only feed once a day, no snack time ever
I have a feeling my response has nothing to do with the comment because I have no idea what the comment means.

Wikipedia is your friend: Linky

It's an internet anacronym or meme for declaring that the forum thread is about to be locked by the admins (and in some instances noting the absurdity of the thread).

You know, this posting in the lounge all day was something I used to spend a lot of time wasting a while back. Check it out, I didn’t become a member 6 months ago, I have been around for a while. I couldn’t come to terms with blowing off a $100k a year job. I would sit here in my bathrobe, gained 75 lbs and guzzled whisky all day long. I got into this because I had no life. It started to bug me today as I thought about it. I wasn’t into all of the “inside on-line forum computer speak” that was so important to understand. This post is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. “Nice try” as if your proud to be so forum savvy and I’m a dummy because I don’t get it. At some point when I came to terms with my life and what was necessary to turn things around, I dropped out of this. In retrospect I guess it could be fun to waste a few minutes goofing around here, but it seems like this is taken way too seriously for anybody that actually has things to do in real life. For the most part I come to R/C now to actually find help with things related to my saltwater fish keeping. I have been battling an undiagnosed disease problem that I have never encountered since I started keeping saltwater fish in the late 1970s. Before that I had freshwater fish since I was around 10 years old. My point is that it seems pretty dumb to try and make someone feel like they are out of touch because they don’t understand crap like this. I’m just going to try and learn the possibilities for a cure for my fish problem. All of this IBTL stuff is so inane it’s laughable.

Alpha tango bravo,
OUT

As my mentally impaired friend (Who BTW was a lovely person, until he passed away) used to say “rexactly” when he agreed. And as my present friend of color may on occasion say “what it is”. That’s a pretty accurate equation you have arrived at, very humorous.
