Assumptions about other Cellar users
 

Why do some message-board users seem to prefer to assume something negative about another user here rather than ask them directly if their assumption is correct? And be polite about it while asking.

So many, it seems, choose to post their assumption first and maybe even hope it's inflammatory?

People seem to crave drama.

(moved to Cellar meta)

Yes...some folks crave it so bad that when they finally realize how bad they looked whining in another thread, rather than stop they'll start another thread specifically to whine in. Some have even done that more than once.

wow, what a thought [but these people are the politest board users. Perhaps you meant to post this on another site?]

I know it's a crappy place to find yourself Steve....I know, I've been there. Sorry 'bout that but
The irony of this just makes me feel like an 'open mouth drooler' so my pain for ya factor is real low. Sorry 'bout that too.

I have always assumed that all Cellarites know better than I do and have more and better life experiences than I do and are certainly much more worthy. I live by that.

And that Brianna, goes straight to the heart of your problem. IT'S NOT TRUE.
Understand that, and you're on your way. You won't need to be reassured daily. ;)

*tease with a grin*
ahh, but do they have a purple living room? ;);) I bet not.

I want better life experiences too but I am too chicken to be cool. You're cool. :)

[smack upside yo head] Bullshit. [/smack]

It must be true because it's now the Cellar tag line.

touche'

since no one else has said it yet, I guess it falls on my shoulders to point out "when you make an assumption, you make an ass out of u and mption."

I'm...I'm so honored!

assumption is the mother of all americans. :D

Everyone makes assumptions. That's partly because human nature is so secretive that we're forced to take guesses from time to time. After all, isn't it true that no one here really knows anyone else? We just assume that what they tell us is true...until they prove themselves dishonest, and our assumptions wrong.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :)

Aliantha, Your sig line is an excellent example of why we don't have avatars.:smack:

I keep thinking its Steve with pink bits :D

I guess you don't like my signature then Bruce?

i assume all of you are assumers.....all but me :D


about your siggy ali......... *goes to spread gossip* ;)

What comes first? asumption or presumption?

In other words does an assumption lead to a presumption, or do you presume to assume?

Or does anyone really care....?

who the hell started another lame insecurity thre........ oh.

True, I found it very annoying.... too much like the millions of websites with avatars, flashing and zipping. Thank you for changing it. :notworthy

ya huh.

:lol2: good one...

Ok, I want to know what the signature WAS. *taps foot, awaits enlightenment*

It was the same one Steve had for awhile.:eyebrow:

blinking lights detract from the mellow that is the cellar .
I find them annoying as well Bruce .

That depends on witch weapon your are speaking of !!! ;)

this thread has been going done hill ever since the 2nd page

I couldnt even remember what it was originally about.

Chey - smutty threads seem to follow you about :p

who me??

:angel:


surely you jest :p

I need to be reassured daily. I need to feel the love. We should have a Daily Reassurance Thread for all us insecure dregs to beat ourselves up in.

Bruce annoys you also?....(slaps knee).....:bolt:

Do you feel it fair for you to put the burden of your comfort on other people? :confused:

here are my assumptions about other cellarites (I think the term you are looking for)

in no particular order:

xobruce: donates 15% of his gross earnings to Saint Joseph's Indian School.

LJ: used to beat up on kids in grade school who scored lower than 78% on math tests. (when he was a teachers aid)

Jinx: Actually hated the greatful dead, was just i it for the twirling and didn't know how to break it to LJ when they first met at a dead concert.

Ibram: is actually nine and a half years old and has hacked his older brother's computer and is posing as him.

ZippyT: is an eccentric billionaire who keeps his money buried in coffee cans in backyards around the world. the location of these coffee cans is tatooed on the inside of his dog's ear.

Wolf: is fluent in semaphore and can actually sing the national anthem in morse code.

BigV: Is still working on the community service part of his Eagle Scout rank.

Clodfobble: is actually tone deaf and has kept that hidden form her clients for nearly a decade.

SteveBsjb: was actually an FBI plant who ended up not finding anything of interest to the feds, but still spends most of his work day here.

Cheyenne: Is actually a middle aged mormon minister.

Ducks nuts: former burlesque dancer, turned schoolmarm.

Dar512: actually a hooker witha heart of gold, the movie "pretty woman" was based loosely on his life.

Elpsode: sent away for and built one of the submarines advertised in the back of comic books.

Limey: Actually canadian by birth.

Kagen 404: doesn't know how to surf, skate, or hackysack, but can bench press a full keg 40 times.

Cyclefrance: earned his first fortune selling bootleg Enya cds at flea markets.

Brianna: would rather curl up on the couch witha pint of ice cream and a good mystery novel than have sex.

These are just a few of my assumptions about cellarites. I think they are probably shared by most people who read between the lines of the posts.

Oh yeah,

Griff spends about $50. a month on plastic toy soldiers which he melts witha zippo lighter so he can hear them go zifff zifff zifff as the melting plastic falls to the lawn.

ZippyT: is an eccentric billionaire who keeps his money buried in coffee cans in backyards around the world. the location of these coffee cans is tatooed on the inside of his dog's ear.

DUDE !!!!!! That was suposed to be just between us !!!!!!

Wow. That is so right-on that I am...I'm...I'm vaklempt.


Hey. How'd you do that?

Though, honest to goddess, I do enjoy sex as a second-best kind of thing. I really do.

This is not a surprise to Beestie, who is actually CIA, spends much of his workday here, and finds a great deal of interest by carefully reading between the lines.

Well, they do send me the cutest little Christiany DoDads. :redface:

ok the thing about surfing skating and hackysack is true. but a full keg 40 times? ummm yeeeeeah, thats true as well...foot said it so it must be true

Usually the truth and the assumption made is as far apart as the grand canyon is wide. It only takes an ass to bridge that divide.

Well ... I am rather fond of maple syrup ... :yum:
