Jealousy? No. Annoyed, because now Seth will refuse to provide the link to the rest of us just to spite you.

well, i guess we'll have to wait till Doni reboots... fuck!
Whoa. What's it called when your chest feels like a dam that's going to burst any minute and your head feels like a rock and you sleep for hours on end but otherwise feel not really so bad??? It looks like I can't use the dastardly ploy I had in mind to find that review, to wit: I'VE BEEN FOLLOWING YOUR REVIEWS FOR MONTHS, SETH! Aren't I supposed to have priviledges? Even though you've gone private, doesn't my loyalty give me special access? And why don't I have almost any of your updates in my email inbox? Do I clean it out that often? I would not have though so.
I do not like when plans don't work out.
Post the link, Seth! I don't know why I want to see a horrid review, but I do. It would be a step up from all the "Pretty Wild" episodes I just watched on On Demand.
Yeah, have pity on Doni, Seth. If you post it, you might get you some horrid vindication.
Yes. Think how nice that would feel.
But you could provide enough hintful information to allow Doni to track down said review, and distract her from her pitifulness in her time of debilitating head coldness.
ok... this whole thing got retarded! is seth afraid that the review is awesome? and its about to show that he is full of it??? i think he is... that's why he refuses to give us a user name and a title...
Just woke up. Nice sleep. What's this about my pitifulness now?
I'll still try finding that review, but NOW we've got friends coming over, so it will have to be later yet again. I'm sure it will be wonderfully anticlimactic if and when I get it.Man, I feel so much better! Caught that cold/strep/whatever and wrestled it to the ground. Sleep is IT! (Also Vit. C. Thank you God for Vit. C.)
(Also Vit. C. Thank you God for Vit. C.) You're welcome.
i find your hypotesis interesting bunny... but i know seth... here is what i think it happens:Seth saw a review... and it didnt sit well with his idea of what goodreads and reviews are supposed to be... he went on a self-righteous rampage and hurt the feelings of somebody... said somebody didnt feel like taking that shit... neither did this person's friends... so they talked shit to seth... seth didnt like it... and decided to play victim... but he is having a hard time recruiting people to his cause cuz he hurt too many already... that's how i see it! and i'm sticking to it!
show me proof of the contrary... and i'd say i'm wrong
ok... before i go to sleep i'ma try to explain this so you understand... your actions hurt people, you are aware that your actions will hurt somebody... and yet you go ahead... even after your hurt a person you are so full of it, that you dont even consider an apology... not for believing on whatever the fuck you choose to believe... but for huring somebody... dude! i hurt people! in most of the cases i dont give a fuck cuz well... sometimes is people i dont care for! but you hurt people who are close to you, who are supposed to mean something to you... and is not that you dont show remorse... is that you go ahead and act like if you were proud of your fucking actions! stop for one second... and look at what you left behind everywhere you go... the same patter appears! you hurt people, you think you are better than those people your hurt, you go on acting like you dont understand why they so offended... and then you complain when there is a fucking army after your head... YOU ARE A HORRIBLE PERSON... and i mean that! stop for one fucking second and count the heads of those you hurt... you are not better than me... and keep in mind that i think pretty damn low of myself... in fact you are fucking worse that i am! at least i know when i'm being an asshole! there i said it!
you can not care all you want... and the reason why its pissing you off it's cuz you know that's how it is.
And you don't seem to understand
A shame you seemed an honest man
And all the fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear
And you know what they say might hurt you
And you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing
i'm out!
I know the link but I'm not sharing it with Alfonso.
'Cause I think you were being mean to Seth about it. Or at least insensitive. He was upset, he vented, he didn't want to name names, he DEFINITELY doesn't want another attack. All this upset him, though, and you were relentless about it. I think you're bitter towards Seth? Sigh.
I just checked, though, and the review is gone. Gone but not forgotten.
I do know and love both Seth and the writer of the review and, for the record, think that both misunderstand the other.
I also like you, Alfonso. But I think you were being mean.

You think wrong... you ought to know me better, Montambeau.
Okay. I just get sad when people hurt other people's feelings. I guess it's more complicated than that, though.

Goodnight, you two. It's late.

I hope I didn't hurt Alfonso's feelings. Sorry, Bones.
What the hell is this - the Lifetime Network?
There's so much estrogen in this thread it's stifling.
I'm good for now, but I'll keep the IOU in my pocket.
Montambeau, i'm not hurt.Seth, as any pessimist i love being wrong! cuz it means i'll end up being pleasantly surprised... why don't you prove me wrong... i'm not saying that you should attempt to turn back time and try to make things they way they were... i'm saying that you own a lot of people an apology... again... please! proof me wrong =)
Rusty, you are right!!! this sounds like a soap opera! all we missing is my good, hippie twin to come and offer us a soothing ride through the forest on his prius!
I don't believe for one second that mom and dad don't care. They've hurt each others feelings and we all know it. They loved each other. They hurt each others feelings. Now they hate each other and both want to pretend they don't care. But people who don't care about stuff don't say so much about it. The only problem I have with all of this is how come no one told US we were the children of a same-sex marriage!? What the fuck? No wonder we all have daddy issues. Myke Hawke is your new daddy.
god! i love it when a woman calls Myke Hawke "daddy" yeah... This great Myke Hawke joke was paid by alfonso!
I'm Myke Hawke, and i approve of this joke.
yup, that sounds like a normal day in the life of Myke Hawke.
Rusty wrote: "There's so much estrogen in this thread it's stifling."Myke Hawk can be stifling.
woaaah! hold it! hold it! hold it!i dont know of who the fuck y'all talking about here... but it is clearly not Myke Hawke! Mike Hawke has never had any sort of problems!! EVER!
Seth wrote: "Smetchie, what else can I do to fuck up your thread, by the way?Tell me, is it everything you expected, and shite?"
This thread is wonderful.Everyone is right where they should be and I feel all warm and fuzzy.
that's right!
i'm not tricky... i'm like Myke Hawke i take things head-on...it's not a poem it's an extract from the opening song from Serial Experiments Lain... it was originally perfomed by a chick that goes by the name of Boa.

You articulate your manurisums so well, the voices agree, you are- will be, one of us.
Seth wrote: "Noah A. Yerdatfukkingdum"This thread mostly happened while I was driving to New Jersey so I really couldn't properly comment on everything that was happening. But I gotta say this fucking cracked me up at the time! My husband was talking to me and I just burst out laughing right in the middle of his [very interesting:] story. It's not all that funny out of context but when you read it in order it's perfect. Also, when Harry said "I smell a threesome. Alfonso, seth, and myke hawke. Bow chicka wow wow!" right in the middle of mom and dad getting all serious and huffy. HAHAHHAHA. That's some good stuff.
Rusty wrote: "What the hell is this - the Lifetime Network?"Also this. HAHAHAHA!

You know, I haven't been able to find the review, and have now been convinced by Bunny and Seth that it's a bit beside the point. Sounds like this WAS one of those internet "flame wars" (liked the hornets nest analogy, Bun, ha!), which I agree are way too common and silly to be very interesting. I will say this, though. In my observation, Americans get their feelings a bit too entangled with their opinions. As just one example, note the way discussions of politics in this country become so crazy so fast. I have nothing against heated debates about political issues -- actually I think they're just fine -- but when the issues are eclipsed by vitriolic personal attacks, feelings have replaced reason and you've just got a mindless dog fight. With this "more heat than light" approach so prevalent, I think people in thsi country have developed very thin skins; i.e., many times they respond more to how something is said than what it is that's being said. There's no trust, I guess is the bottom line as I see it. This is making me think of something an English friend once said to me. Back home, you could call a friend a "daft cow," and it was taken in good spirit. Here, you say something like that and you'll practically hear their anus snap shut. She regretted that this kind of verbal horseplay was not possible here. I have to say I agree with her. It's fun as long as no one has a problem with it. They do here, and that's fair enough. But if you engage in it, they don't hesitate to, in one way or another, call you "evil," and that's not fair.
I don't know the backstory on Fonze's and Seth's quarrel, but they're both great guys, and I'd be really sorry to think the problem arises from some kind of hair-trigger reaction somewhere.
Um, I wrote the preceding before I saw there was a third page to this thread. So Fooz and Seth are okay again? That would be good.
Seth found out that Alfonso hangs out at Barnes & Noble reading books without buying them so he un-friended him on goodreads. Alfonso got mad and wrote a review (of a book he was reading as part of a a bet with Seth) which was a long angry rant against Seth. What really happened is Alfonso got his feelings hurt and Seth just didn't want to lose the bet and have to write porn. There might be some other stuff about how Seth says things that can hurt people's feelings and Alfonso says obscene things that are distasteful to some. But otherwise I think that's pretty much what happened.The whole thing is really sad for me because I adore them both. Also they had a funny deal here. I loved waking up in the morning to find a night's worth of them posting back and forth.
In a perfect world Seth would apologize for unfriending Alfonso and hurting his feelings and Alfonso would apologize for ripping Seth in a review. Then they would argue about some obscure comic I've never heard of and make me laugh.
This sounds like an excellent plan.
Seth, how about an avatar? For my IOU? How about you get an avatar?! WHOO!!! GOOD PLAN!!!!!!!!!!
This is the first thing I get when I google "Seth."
WHOO!!!
It was for Smetchie. I wanted to pay my IOU forward.

I love you Sarah!! I love you I love you I love you I love you! And I love paying it forward. This IS the fucking Lifetime network. YAY!! Gretchen is HAPPY!!
Too bad. Daft cow is funny. Except it sounds like you're calling someone fat.
