Decision Day

* Decided to make an appointment with a psychologist that is free through work
- Followed through and made the appointment for Tuesday arvo. Felt great after doing it.

*Decided to make a go with an alt account on the Atomic forums to see if I could stomach staying there
- Decided I couldn't, and have removed myself wholly and permanently from the forums. Staying around something that I get so angry with I feel sick every time I visit it just isn't very smart.

Yay for the psych. Bummer for the forums.


You weren't HerHighness, were you?

Sure was. Satire takes a certain level of IQ and mental maturity to "get it" and the IQ level of the forums has dropped alarmingly of the last 6 months.

Funny thing is I could write similar stuff in a blog like http://reasonsyouwillhateme.blogspot.com/ and it will attract its own audience, rather than wasting my times spreading pearls before swine.

ooh when I read the email notification I think it could be misinterpreted that I write that other blog. I don't. I was just using it as an example of satire

For what it's worth, I understood your satire. Squidy asked me who it was in your avatar and I thought maybe it was Margaret Thatcher...but I couldn't be sure. Who is it?

I don't blame you for leaving the forums. It's sad though...most of the intelligent people are leaving due to a few teenage twits who really have no respect.

It was Bronwyn Bishop...I linked to her maiden speech in my tagline as a hint.

I could have chosen my other favourite lib woman Mandy Sandstone, but even I have limits to how low I will stoop for a cheap laugh ;)

hahaha...Bronwyn Bishop! Of course. Now that I look closer. How did I miss it?

As for Amanda Vanstone; she has a fanboi club in there y'know ;)

I wonder how long it takes people to notice you're gone. I suppose that at least you won't be seemingly disappearing off the planet altogether like Virt has.
