We can post any kind of frustration here, right?

I can't bring myself to tell the girl I like I love her. I want to, but I'm afraid she doesn't like me (I've already had that happen to me twice this year). My friends and her friends all want me to ask her out, but I just can't do it.
dont tell her you love her. tell her you LIKE her, and you'd like to get to know her better. love + non-gf = SCARY STALKER.
also, after a bit of getting to know her better tell her you'd like to become bf/gf.

eh, all her friends say she likes me, but I don't think so.

They have made statements that can be verified experimentally. Science commands you to ask this girl out!

I may be going to her house tomorrow, so I'll try then.

Edit: So very true, Lord Jayzor. It's fascinating how it still annoys me less than huge posts with similar points of view written with a completely different perspective, under the absolute lack of capability to actually detect such thing. I guess it's because you land your eyes on it and you automatically know you won't have to read anything before the last quote, as opposed by the huge & repetitive point-makings that everybody makes on incredibly relevant topics. Or, perhaps, it's just that I'm an idiot.

Since this is the frustration thread, it's a pet peeve of mine when people chain-quote other people's entire posts when small snippets will do.

Yes, that's one thing that really bugs me. Is it possible to install something in the forum to prevent that? To strip out all other quotes in a quoted post, I mean.

Pay me $100. I'll have it done and activated for your profile.

Yeah, chain-quoting is lame...I thought it was, but it doesn't look like it is, but it should be part of the Code of Conduct.

I'll even throw in a special ignore feature for just $50 more.

Really though, you'll just have to live with it for now. If it really bothers you, you can always install Greasemonkey and use some Javascript/DOM to remove the nested quotes.

It'd just dilute the code anyway. Besides, it's better to just ask people to be more polite instead of making some rule for moderators to have to enforce.

Meh, I'm too lazy to do that.

But you're right. Best to ignore it when it happens and ask people to politely not do it rather than try to enforce it.

Yeah, but it'd give people something nice to copy&paste. And if nothing else, I like having stuff to copy&paste...>_>

Anyways...about the whole height & weight thingy...whoever said stuff was right: high motabolism+not eating right+not sleeping good+stress/depression=bad santa...er...skinny boy. Lookit that! One's a movie and the other one's a band (I think)!
