I got to a point where some posts here, are getting on my nerve (it's my fault I know, sorry)...some posts really are true idiotic crap..they just reach the unconcievable (and they are not even sailing related)...I know we need to be nice and happy and satisfy the lurkers and newbies questions (which I do when they are sailing related...want to know what a raft carries, and how to sharpen a knife..piss off..I wilkl joke with you and photoshop you)...but there is a limit...I reached mine..sorry..but some of the idiots don't even bother googling or using COMON SENSE...they come here and ask really stupid questions (which is ok we all do), but at least..GIVE IT some thought before showing the World the lack of common sense they have....please...or at least..keep them related to sailing...do a little effort before...

Yes, if you load a gun and put it in your eye, you will die...yes...if you use sandpaper, it will eat away the paint...yes...yes..YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS


I know we have to be nice and such to the newbies and the lurkers and people in general who are less fortunate to be exposed to sailing and all that...but after a while it just gets unbearable..

we have a saying in my country..."he who is unconfortable...moves"...

I am getting really unconfortable, and with most now gone sailing..maybe I need a vacation from here...

I don't want to be rude, or anything so I appologize, ok?

I just got to a point where I start reading the morning posts here, start steaming....and find myself attacking people for no reason...I appologize for that too...(I do not forget the Hienas, that come after me like dogs with rabis, when I do so...you know who you are, so BITE ME)...(you will notice I don't and stopped talking to you)....

I can't photoshop, because it "touches the senses" of some the delicate political correct hienas that strive here, and if I say something PRETTY obvious..the same hienas attack....I hate fake Political correct Hienas...I and I know who they are...you're the ones I don't talk to, or stopped talking to....

With all my participation here...I became an easy target for the "political correct" barons to show their white fake minds, by criticizing all I say and do..even if I joke....BITE ME LOSERS.....YES YOU....

So, my friends...in order to avoid offending anyone else in the near future....I take a vacation..

It's my fault I know...sorry

I'll be back soon....just need a break...

Alex
Alex,

I have always seen your jokes as more in the category of good-natured ribbing. There is nothing mean-spirited about your posts. If you feel like you are being too mean, I disagree. If you just need some time off, we'll see you in a while, but you will be missed.

CB

Oh, and can someone help me - my boat acts weird. When I turn the tiller to the right hand side the boat turns left, and when I turn the tiller to the left side, it turns right, is that normal ? What is wrong with my boat ? Please help me.

I had the same problem with my boat. I switched to a left handed tiller . . . . . . . problem solved.


I always come late to these threads dang it!!!
. . . didn't even get to wave goodbye.
Goodbye Alex . . . . . . . for now.
I hate it when old friends take leave.
I look forward to your return!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will certainly be glad to have you back when Sailnet returns to being something you enjoy, instead of something else.

That being said, I was wondering if you could provide a new photoshop of Chuckles to use as an avatar. The old one is still haunting my dreams.

If you're dreaming about Chuckles' avatar, you deserve to be haunted... Anything that looks like that qualifies as nightmare material.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.

Oh, they are most definitely nightmares.

It's like some horrible song that I can't get out of my head.. Sort of like:

I've Never Been to Me - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alex! for the love of God, Make it Stop!!!

"Loser" is a good spirited thing to call people you consider close. I love it! It's an acknowledgement that you're "in" with the person using it.


. . . . . . . at least that's how Cheri explained it to me . . . . . . . and my mom . . . . and others.


I miss Alex already. I hope he just had to leave internet access and used this as the way to leaves us. I love that sense of humor.

Retclt-

While that may be the case with some people, I don't think that is how Cheri meant it... or your mom...or everyone else.... at least in your case.
