Ruffled
Neurotron | 2 June 2004, 6:11pmI do believe a few feathers have been ruffled by the last post. So here is the clarification.
It was actually intended to be funny. I guess the humour in the voice doesn't always translate onto the text. Anyway, I was imagining saying it to a friend of mine, who does this just to piss me off (and partly because he doesn't understand the meaning). I know for a fact he would have laughed at the way I said it and the purpose would have been achieved - he would have made the correction.
And this has been going on for a while, so I was pissed off. This is my name here, in this virtual land. People like to be called by their names. It's as simple as that. Friends, family, and people I like or admire are allowed to modify it. Probably the mode of correction I used could have been better. But hey, I had to let off some steam.
The good thing though, is that there are still people who understand, and forget easily, once the issue is sorted out.
