Hail Fellow Ditz, well met.
I waste so much time redoing things on the computer, it's halving my usable lifespan. However this distinction between chit chat and grand literature is giving me great practice in sharpening up. You read it on the "Reviews" thread and then you comment on the "To keep the review thread clean..." and someone responds on the keep clean thread with relevant high art stuff plus a little aside which requires that you then jump to the "chitchat" thread and if you quote all along then those little arrow buttons allow you to jump about between threads quite easily and blur all the distinctions in your mind in spite of the discrete threads and when I've stopped to breath, Ill tell you about how much fun a ditz can have feeling empowered by the ability to bounce around like this . . . what's that? Small things? Small minds? Holly shit, what does it matter how big my mind is when I'm having such fun. Mindless? Sure! That's what orgasmic relief is about isn't it? A moment of mindlessness to reconnect with the eternal infinite. My psychologist assures me that frequent orgasmic bliss will do more for ADD than Ritalin in the mature adult.

How do you lrespond to a quote made in another thread, including that quote in your post

I hit quote, then copy the quoted material. Then I go to the thread I want and open reply and paste in the quote. Maybe there's an easier way, but that works for me.

And that is exactly what works.

The little button that normally takes you to the quoted material in the same thread, takes you to the source thread when you cross post. So you never get lost and all the world is interconnected. And for once in my life I feel in complete control. Why did it have to wait until I arrived at Literotica for my life to become so casually groovy?

The internet is a crazy place, huh? Although maybe not as crazy as American politics at the moment. Ahem. I've seen people online tell awful lies about others. I once spent all night talking to a guy whose "girlfriend" had "died in a car accident." She faked it because she didn't want to be with him--or whatever that is--online. And this guy was brokenhearted. Why do people do this shit? I dunno. Cause we're human. I just try to be glad for the ones I've met online who enrich my life. That makes it worth it to me. Like you. I'm glad you're here. You're a lovely person, caring, and you write a good poem. Hope you can find some larfs here tonight and put that nasty fellow far behind you.

Just tell me where I can find the MF'er and I'll sic the Flying Monkey's on him!

The Mean ones! The mean ones that bite. the mean ones that bite and throw poo! The mean ones that bite, throw poo and will pull him pants down in public then laugh at his little teenie weenie!

*peek to see if she's smiling yet* I can keep going you know - you might as well smile...

OR the Flying Monkeys could take him parachuting...

​

....without the parachute.

I've got no other advice, besides "FUCK 'EM!" I doubt that's helpful in any specific way, but there it is. I suggest passing it out like prescriptions of cyber 'whup ass'.

Dosage: Take 1 Fuck You, and call me never.

Hey neil-whoever you are. You lay off my girl. Or we'll have some trouble.

Annie, ditch that prick. He doesn't deserve so much as a smirk from you. You carry around smiles and put them on peoples' faces. These days that's incomparable value. And if they don't want those smiles, I ain't proud.

 

[lorencino]

Just thought I should mention that exactly one week ago at around 2:00am on a fateful Thursday, I discovered For Thomas Eakins, with Gratitude by Cal Y. Pygia and my life has not been the same since. So, although it refers to very serious outstanding poetry it is about me rather than poetry so it rightly belongs on this thread, right?

Thankyou honey I like aiming my smiles at you xxx
On reflection it's not him I am really so upset about he's just an insignificant pawn in all this it's the woman that started all this by her gossiping some one I thought was my great friend and took us all in so much so that Ron and I were going to put ourselves out and give her a lift to Scotland in November. She is talking about everyone behind their backs and not saying very nice things either but everyone is being taken in too and thinks she is wonderful which she is to your face. I have just got to sit back and watch her walk out of the chatroom when I walk in as if I was some sort of pariah and I can't even tell anyone what she is doing because it would just look like sour grapes on my part and no one is going to believe me anyway I certainly wouldn't have done if this had happened to anyone else.

Lorencino can you pleassssse make your pictures a little bit smaller you have stretched the New Poems Review so much it's too big to fit on my screen and read

In a neighborhood I once was a denizen, there was a cafe, kind of artsy-almost-upscale (I couldn't afford the food, but I'd go for a drink or a coffee, kill time). Without fail, as soon as a customer walked out (locals and strangers alike), the bartender and the waitress would gather together and crack jokes about the lately-departed. When I saw this was a consistent pattern, it wasn't hard to put the pieces together: If the bartender and the waitress gossip about them after they leave, then that must mean, when I leave...

You think it was too big on your screen: I was out of breath with all the scrolling I was doing to find buttons to click and things.

OK! First, I'm truly sorry for the distress.

Now, truth is, its got to do with me being a klutz about getting pictures to appear on my posts. It seems that someone has fixed the problem, now and made the picture exactly the size it needed to be. I wish someone would tell me how to do that. (Am I still in the right thread here.) From what I can gather, the picture has to be somewhere on the internet for me to enter a link to it so that it can appear inside my post. I could have downloaded the picture, made it smaller, and then uploaded it to this site, but I don't know how. As far as I can tell, one can't upload pictures to a post one has to link to it.

Please don't beat me with that broomstick, UYS.
At least, not toooo hard. I promise to be good.

There's a wonderful, free image hosting site, Photobucket that allows you to upload all sorts of image files. In picture edit mode, you can resize your photo to either a standard format automatically or a custom edit to your own specs. It also gives you code for posting to html, embedding or (this is most handy for Literotica) in vBb code language.

I didn't realize anyone else had mentioned the size. But I did find the version you originally wanted, sized it down, hosted it on my webspace, and put it back in your post. Hope it's suitable. I may check out photobucket and move it there. I keep forgetting about that place.

I was lucky in not having that particular cross to bear for all that long. When we left California in 11th grade, I was one of the ones who either crossed the clique lines or was just an outsider to all of them. rolleyes And, returning to school in Virginia, I had pretty much all my time taken up with orchestra, the literary magazine, and our school's gaming club. Never had to really deal with cliques until I got to college.

And, that, as they say, is another story entirely....hehehe
