There are times where I cannot be bothered to argue with people so if they jump on me about a particular post, I just ignore them and move on. ;-) All of us were "newbies" at one point or another. Quite frankly, I thought you were fitting in rather well! :-/ If someone gives you a hard time, just tell them "bite me" and move on.

I long ago gave up spending lots of time proofing my posts but if I make a typo, someone's going to tell me about it. I think of Usenet as being really informal and a few misspelled words or cromulent sentences won't kill anyone. >None of us are obligated to back up what we say here. >If you disagree, do your OWN googling to prove us wrong...... >We are not being paid to do your research for you. I like looking things up for myself. You get more info that way, and don't have to rely on quickie summaries someone else posted.

I use them all the time at home. One of my favorites is dihydrogen monoxide (referred to as DHMO for short). I just took a strawberry break a few minutes ago. I doused my strawberries in DHMO, and although I drained it off, there was still some on the berries. With callous disregard for my health, I just left it on. DHMO is responsible for tens of thousands of deaths every year due to inhalation. It is the primary component of acid rain. I don't care. I have a healthy respect for its dangers, but I still use it every day. -- Dan Abel Petaluma, California, USA |

I just jumped right in and started posting about food, and everybody but the ASSHOLES accepted me -- not that I had any great emotional investment in whether I "fit in" or not. Sure, I'm involved in flame wars now and then, but that's what you can expect from any unmoderated group with more than one strong personality active. Why WORRY about whether you fit in or not? If you feel you have something to contribute to the group (including the myriad lurkers and the people who have voiced support for you), then by all means continue to post. If you feel that nothing you have to post is WORTHY of this group, then (1) work on your self-esteem and (2) compare your posts with those of Jimmy Tango: That ought to make you re-think your worthiness!
